Mastering The Law Of Attraction
The idea of attraction is instantly appealing to most people. Attraction is about bringing something toward you, almost like a magnetic pull. The idea of a magnetic energy drawing something toward you is at the heart of the law of attraction.
Now imagine what you could bring into your life if you knew how to direct that magnetic pull. When The Secret hit bookshelves, it revived an age-old concept. It’s nothing new. The idea has floated around for centuries, seemingly forgotten except by a few, then is always revived over time.
Some say it came from Hinduism. There’s a definite link to James Allen’s 1902 book, As a Man Thinketh. Allen’s title came from a Bible verse that says, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.”
For Allen, the heart was merely an extension of desires, goals and dreams – which could be fulfilled by attracting anything that is wanted or needed.
Rhonda Byrne, author of the blockbuster 2006 movie The Secret, admits that her inspiration came after reading The Science of Getting Rich, written by Wallace D. Wattles in 1910.
Once again, the simple attraction concept of Ask, Believe, and Receive is back in the limelight. What we call the Law of Attraction had several names during the 20th Century such as New Thought, Science of the Mind, Positive Thinking, Metaphysics and Prosperity Thinking.
If you look at these names and the writings about them, you’ll see that this idea flowed throughout the years in one form or another – yet all hold claim to the idea that you can attract what you want or need if you practice the correct approach.
What is the right approach to attract your desires, goals and dreams? To begin, you have to understand that what you want or need is all around you. It’s like picking fruit – you won’t get peaches from an oak tree.
You have to recognize where peaches are and be properly positioned to reach those peaches on the tree. You also have to know exactly what kind of fruit you want. This is an overly simplistic way of showing how you must be in touch with your own desires before you can attract what you want.
The universe is a complex system that’s extremely orderly. The design of the universe is claimed in various religious beliefs, yet even the scientific community joins in the agreement that the universe is orderly.
The more scientific thinkers in this movement insist that the Law of Attraction is an element of Quantum Physics. After all, Quantum Physics is a study of the impact of energy on matter.
So if the Law of Attraction could teach you to focus your energy on what you want or need, then those things (made of matter) could be drawn to you. It’s like becoming a human tractor beam, locking onto something and bringing it to you.
Whether the Law of Attraction is part of Quantum Physics or not, the essence of how to make it work for you is summed up in the three words;
Ask, Believe, and Receive.
