The Secret: Energy Flows Where Attention Goes

header1.jpg

It's easy for us to look at the things we want and say "yes" to them. The things we don't want, we fight; we focus on not wanting these things.

When we put more energy focusing on what we do not want, we create resistance.

"What we resist, persists."

Stong emotions feed problems with energy. For instance, if you are anti-war, try being pro-peace. Mother Theresa understood this, as she has been quoted as saying that she would never attend an anti-war protest, but if there was a pro-peace gathering, she would be there.

Good energy feeds as well. We need to learn to become still and focus our attention and energy on what we want. Energy flows where attention goes.

Focus Energy on Abundance

There is a lie that is like a virus. It says that there is lack in this world. This in turn breeds fear, greed, and stinginess. These feelings then become people's experience. It's as though the world has taken a "nightmare pill".

The truth is that there is more than enough. More than enough love, good, money, food, etc.

When we are hungry for that, when we want it, intend it, we'll see it. We need to recognize this in our own lives with gratitude; we need to spend all on our energy on positive and thankful living.

Every single "I'm not..." is a creation. That's why Henry Ford said: "Whether you think you can or you can't, either way you are right."

Keep in mind that thoughts manifest, and inner happiness is the fuel of success and having the intention will bring it about.

Realize there are no limits. "Follow your bliss and the Universe will open doors for you where there were only walls." -Joseph Campbell

The Secret: Wealth Is A Mindset

header1.jpg

We have been talking about the Secret, the Law of Attraction, how to use it and how to change our thinking. It is extremely important, especially in our mental relationship to money.

Wealth is a Mindset.

Be careful if your goal is to get out of debt. In or out- it doesn't matter; you are going to attract more debt.

Instead, set up an automatic debt repayment plan, and focus on increasing your income.

When you focus on lack, on what you don't have, scarcity, talk about it with others, speak about not having enough, that you can't afford it, etc... you attract more of all those things.

Want abundance? Want prosperity? Focus on that. Money attracts money. Instead of always expecting bills, start expecting checks. Want a certain amount in your bank account? Find your bank statement, white out the current amount, write in the amount you'd like- and put that in front of you, or on a Vision-Board to look at daily- and you will see that your life will soon follow.

Loral Langemeier
said that she grew up thinking you had to work hard for money. She then replaced that thinking with: Money comes frequently and easily. She admitted that at first, she felt like she was lying to herself, and there was a battle inside her head. But she changed her mindset. According to her, 80% of her financial coaching focuses on the psychology of people andtheir inner conversations about money.

Wealth is a Mindset. Wealth is not just riches, just as riches alone are not wealth. Life was meant to be abundant in all areas. If you play not lose, guess what your going to attract more of? Play to win. Do yourself a favor and change your mindest; start expecting to win!

The Secret: Changing Your Thinking Today

header1.jpg

"We are where we are today because we have chosen to be here." However, we do not have to continue to define ourselves by these old thoughts. So many people, feel stuck or confined, but that's only how you feel today- and it can be changed.

We can change our thinking today by using two powerful processes: gratitude and visualization.

Attitude of Gratitude

Gratitude, or appreciation, something that is fresh in our minds from Thanksgiving just last week, pulls in more of the things we are grateful for. Being truly thankful absolutely attracts support and more of those things in our lives.

Instead of looking around being discontent and wishing you had a different house, made more money, drove a different car, or had a different spouse - think about all these things from a point of view of gratitude.

Make a list of all the things you are appreciative of, that you are so grateful for, and go over it first thing in the morning when you wake up. Grab a rock to hold in your pocket and throughout the day when you feel it, think about what you are thankful for. Make this a daily habit, not a dry ritual, but one of truly feeling so thankful from your heart for all the amazing things you do have. You will see that this will attract more of those good things.

What You Visualize Will Materialize

Astronauts do it, Olympic athletes do it, and you can do it too. Think about the things you want to accomplish, drive, do. Close your eyes, visualize, feel the feelings. Run through it in your mind, always focusing on the final outcome. Your mind can't distinguish whether you are really doing it or just practicing.

If you have gone there in the mind, you can go there in the body.

Putting yourself in the feeling of it and visualizing it today will help align your asking to prepare you to recieve, If you imagine it in the future- it will always be there. Visualize and feel the things you want today.

Set goals for yourself so big that when you achieve them it will blow your mind, because you will see the power of the Law of Attraction at work. Change your thinking today.

"Whatever the mind of man can concieve, it can achieve."

How To Use The Secret: The Law Of Attraction in Action

header1.jpg

Yesterday, the Secret was revealed: the Law of Attraction. We saw what it is and what it does. How do we put that to use in our lives then?

Imagine that you are Aladin and you have found and rubbed the lamp- out pops the genie, the Universe (God, Higher Self or whatever you want to call it). Now imagine there are no limits to your wishes. Here's where the creative process begins:

1. ASK: Ask for what you want (doesn't have to be in words). Allow yourself to want what is in your heart. Write these down in the present tense.

2. BELIEVE: Do not try to figure it out. Your job is just to belive that it is possible and going to happen, and to bring yourself into alignment with the things you asked for. The "how" is the domain and job of the Universe. Replace any doubt with unwavering faith. Feel it now.

3. RECEIVE: The Universe provides a way or the want, but you have to be ready for it and receive it. Believe you deserve it and pay attention to the way the answer may come to you. When you feel that stronge urge, that intutitive nudge- don't second guess it or doubt it, just accept it and go with it.

Size is no issue to the universe. There are no rules, no time limits, etc. You ask, you believe (with faith and feeling) and then you will receive.

The Secret: The Law of Attraction

header1.jpg

Last Wednesday, after months of hearing about The Secret (poking around the site, but not willing to spend the $4.95 to find out what it was), I ran across a free link to the video. I sat watching it for 90 minutes, riveted. The weird thing? The actual "Secret", which is the Law of Attraction, is not an amazing new idea. However, the explanations of how this law has, can and will continue to affect my life personally- and that it is all in my control, were sort of an awakening moment.

It is true that when the student is ready, the teacher will appear.

I watched The Secret video again Friday, and again Saturday morning. I took copious amounts of notes, as well as stock of my life. I have woken up each night thinking about it and how to apply it. I was ready to hear it. I have seen its power at work even though I didn't know what it was. It is the reason my life has been turned upside down and rebuilt the way I want it this year. I have attracted this all to myself.

Law of Attraction

In its most simple explanation, the Law of Attraction states that thoughts become things. Everything that is happening to us is a result of the images we are holding in our minds. We become what we think about most.

Thoughts have frequencies. They can be measured. They are magnetic energy going out. We always attract what we think about- either in what we want or don't want. What we think about, we bring about. Our lives are a physical manifestation of the thoughts that go on in our heads.

Thoughts manifest; focusing with passion makes them happen even more quickly. Our minds shape our perception of things. We should learn not to reject what we don't understand. Also we do not need to be frightened once we realize this.

Affirmative thoughts are hundreds of times more powerful than negative ones. Also, there is a time buffer between out thoughts and when they manifest. We can literally make another choice.

We are the Michelangelo of our own lives.

Many people do not realize they are choosing, and end up choosing be default. Now that we know, we need to choose carefully what we think about, and learn to have more fun with our thoughts. We are the ones who are sculpting our own lives.

How can we possibly control all our thoughts? Thoughts cause feelings, and our feelings show our thoughts. They are a guide to see if we are on the right track. When our wants and lives are in alignment, we are happy and feel good about things. Our feelings are a perfect reflection of what we are going to be getting in the future if we continue doing the same things.

For example, when we start our day off badly (stubbed toe, late, spilled coffee, etc.) if we do not stop to change our thoughts, things will continue out of alignment. However, when our day starts off great, it will continue going that way if we don't let anything change our state of mind, because our positive minds will then attract more good things to us throughout the day.

Simply shifting our emotions can change our day, and our lives. Whatever our predominant feelings are, we'll get more of. Our thoughts create our lives. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer.

The universe will manifest our thoughts and feelings. We literally can create our lives as we go along; when we feel good, we attract more good to ourselves. This is the Law of Attraction.
