We Live In a Negative World

How many times in a day do you find yourself thinking negatively?  You know what I mean.  If it’s not bad enough we consciously and subconsciously think this way all day but to have it reinforced with local and world news. What’s a guy or gal to do!  To add more fuel to the fire it seems the norm to wallow in your family or friends' misfortunes.  So am I any different. Well, no, but I have consciously made a pack with myself that when I get this way I immediately recite a positive affirmation putting me in a different vibration.  You know you can only feel one vibration at a time, so the choice is yours.  I also have turned off the news. I like background noise and I would use the news for that. It’s no wonder I felt so negative.  The news has been replaced with positive music and audios. (and sometimes the Food Network)

If things aren’t bad enough, we manage to sabotage ourselves thinking that we’re not good enough.  I’m not smart enough.  I don’t have the credentials.  Why is everyone else making money on the Internet and I’m not (Ouch).  Well I’m sure you have your own list of ‘I don’t and I’m not’.  So how do we get past this?  First we have to believe in ourselves.  Start with small successes.  Have you heard the saying ‘how do you eat an elephant?'  Well, its one bit at a time. These successes will breed larger successes.  You get on the law of attraction momentum train.  For example if need to lose a couple of pounds it seems the hardest part is starting.  And when you have a lot to lose the task seems insurmountable.  But once you’ve committed and noticed you’ve lost a few pounds and have gotten a few positive compliments, it seems much easier to continue.  These positive statements fuel the law of attraction.  

So now that you're in a positive mindset, it's time to get going and take action or get back to your action steps that you were taking a break from.  Next time I'm going to begin telling you about some great tools I use that can help you take action, to keep you on track, and to speed you along in the achievement of your goals.

Be Prepared When Opportunity Knocks

Don't tell Beth, but I have fallen for another woman.  Our cable company just added the Food Channel so Beth and I started watching it for kicks.   Who would ever think you could become mesmerized watching someone cook?  You can't smell the food or eat it, but those cooking shows put us in a hypnotized state.  Not being all that familiar with the food hosts we quickly became especially fond of a Paul Deen.

Her story is what we fell in love with (well, Beth likes that she equates butter with love). It’s all about the Law of Attraction at it’s best.  Paula started cooking out of her house with a business called The Bag Lady, which led her to being hired by Best Western.  Both ventures were very successful, which led to a loyal following.  Paula decided to put her recipes into a small book.  No one would publish it, but she believed in herself and paid to have 5000 copies printed up. Just by chance one rainy day a Random House editor ran into the restaurant to get out of the rain.  She picked up a copy of Paula's cookbook, and the rest is history.

A while later, a patron of the restaurant knew someone at the QVC shopping network.  This led to getting Paula selling her cookbook on the QVC television channel.

Would you call this luck or the Law of Attraction at work?  I believe that there were too many occurrences for it to be luck.  She believed in herself and took action.  When opportunities showed up, she was ready to take advantage of them.  She used the Law of Attraction to become lucky.

Pay Attention To Your Thoughts They Are Vibrations to the Universe

The Law of Attraction happens all the time. When you become aware of it, you can see it in action. Let me give you an example. A friend of mine is taking a required course at a maritime school. She called me all excited, saying that ships stability finally made sense. It was an ah-ha moment for her. I was excited for her but found myself saying, "It was always there, you just didn't see it." So take a moment and think what’s already there for you but you just haven't seen it yet.

I've been watching Donny Deutsch on the CNBC show 'The Big Idea' on how people made their first million dollars. It’s about people who are passionate about an idea and they have followed through with it and have made millions. I have to admit that some of the products are quite foolish to me, but then again they're the ones making millions. Donny says to use this statement when trying to find the next million-dollar idea: "There’s gotta be a better way." So where am I going with this? Everything we need is right there. We just need to see it.

Let me also say if you, your thoughts, and your feelings aren't going in the same direction, if they're not in tune, none of this will happen. The universe has been giving everyone opportunities throughout their lives, but we just don't look at them. An example of this was one of these million dollar ideas. This woman created a little rubber band tool that would keep a toilet paper roll from unrolling all the way when toddlers started to play with it. She’s making millions. My wife noticed the same problem and just put the toilet paper roll in the holder opposite direction so it wouldn't unwind. It works, but it didn't make us rich!

I could kick myself for a few opportunities that have passed me by, but I guess I wasn't ready. Don't give up because there are always opportunities out there. When your thoughts and feelings are lined up and you believe in them, you'll be sending out the right vibrations. These will attract similar vibrations and you will begin to see those opportunities. This is the Law of Attraction at its best.

Perfect Relationship with Law of Attraction

Someone asked me the other day if he can use the law of attraction to find his perfect mate? The answer is of course you can. In the book The Science of Getting Rich Wattles states that it is not possible to live a really complete life unless we're rich. I think you can expand the idea of money riches to include relationships, health, career or anything you're passionate about.

The law of attraction is a really simple formula: thoughts lead to feelings and feelings lead action and action leads to your final result. The more specific your thoughts are, the more likely you're going to get what you want. If you visualize just a mate, well, who knows who or what is going to show up? What you impress on universal intelligence (thinking stuff) gives the Universe a road map for what you want, and the more specific you are, the easier it is for the Universe to order up your request. The more you impress this thought on the universe and actually believe it, the sooner you'll start seeing results. Things will just start to show up. I suggest you start journaling the results that show up no matter how small.

You'll know when the right mate shows up. Have you ever been to a party where you don't know anyone? You may not know this but as you work the room you're sending out vibrations. The people you are attuned to you feel comfortable and safe with even though you just met them. You'll find yourself staying away from the ones that don't seem to have the same vibrations. So when you meet your perfect mate, you'll find your first indication will be how you feel.

Joe Vitale states in the movie 'The Secret', "It's like having the universe as your catalog. You flip through it and say, I'd like to have this experience and I'd like to have that product and I'd like to have a person like that. It's placing your order with the universe."

The above statement is true but takes a lot of effort on your part. When you become passionate about anything and truly believe you already have it then it's yours for the taking.

Law of Attraction Only Works if Your Clear - Definite and Specific

So what does it take to make the Law of Attraction work? Well, I hear statements such as, 'I want to lose weight'. 'I want a lot of money.' 'I want to be happy and joyful.' 'I want world peace.' - Hey wait, that’s only my mom. 'I want oodles of money' (professional term for lots of green stuff). It seems money is the most popular ‘I want’.

Let's use this analogy. I'm ordering a pizza at a restaurant and I tell the waitress I'm hungry. I don't tell her anymore than that and let her decide on the toppings. She brings me a pizza with anchovies, onions, and feta cheese. I don't like any of these toppings. If I was clearer and more specific in what I wanted she would have been able to accommodate me. It works the same way when you ask the Universe. The more specific and clearer you are, the easier the universe can order up your pizza.

Wallace Wattles writes ‘you must form a clear and definite mental picture of what you want. ‘ He also goes on to say that many people fail to impress the thinking substance because they have only a vague and misty concept of the things they want to do, to have, or to become.

So if you want to have more money abundance then be more specific than ‘I want a lot of money’. Specify exactly how much you want, when you want it by, and mentally start living as if you had it. Okay, I'm not saying for you to go out and spend it before you have it. No one knows how long it will take to receive your wish. However, the stronger the vibrations and the more you actually believe it, the faster you'll start seeing results. So this is where the movie ‘The Secret’ leaves out some critical steps.

The most important step is the starting point. It's what you'll be focusing on. When you build something, you want a strong foundation. So the more you clarify your goal, the more specific you are with your end result, the easier it is to stay on track and recognize your goal when you achieve it. The complete formula for creating what you want is thoughts + feelings + actions equal’s results. Join us in later in completing this algebraic formula so you can have results you never thought were possible.
