The Law of Attaction

[mtate35]

I'm a strong believer of The Law of Attraction - The Secret It's something I use everyday and it's a major contributor to my success.

Hi Mtate35 & welcome to the forum.

I am still getting used to using The Secret. It is a whole new way of life and it is difficult at first to change the way you think. But I do think it can work if you are able to fully embrace it. I have friends who are who-hearted believers and they read the book almost every day (believe it or not). They are determined to change their life for the better. :nod:

Silly, so basically, it's the intention? So I don't have to feel grateful to make it happen?

I had successfully used my will power to influence the "probability" of something occuring. Like coin flipping. I could get 70% tails if I tried. When I don't try it's close to 50% tail.

I could also influence things that are about to happen. Your example of holding an intention for parking spaces is like my experience.

But when it comes to manifestating huge permanent things like a miracle healing or a check, I can't do it. Maybe I need the Secret recipe there. Or maybe the huger things are facing resistance from my mind-patterns or not coming because I'm not in receive mode (step 3 of the Secret). The "probability" and the imminent manifestations aren't desires I longed, so they didn't need that extra receive mode to manifest.

I swear I have no idea if it is intention or gratitude or me or the Universe or whoever[size="-1"]![/size]

There are quite possibly one zillion billion churches, religions, gurus, teachers, books, TV shows, movies which will give reasons for why this works or does not work.

I think what is really important to me though is to not stop trying and experimenting.  It's fun.  And it really gets fun when I bring my partner into the mix and say "Hey, help me get rid of my hiccups, please" and it works[size="-1"]!

I went through a self improvement course called The Landmark Forum. This course is extremely powerful and is pretty similar to the secret in a way. The power of the course is that you learn that everything that exist, exist in your thoughts first and then becomes reality to you. That what you think is not real therefore you can think anything and make it real.

An example is, I can tell myself that I love myself and that I can do anything I want to do and thus it will become true.

I can tell myself that I love my wife dearly and she is the greatest thing that ever happened to me or I can say that I hate my wife and she's the worst thing that ever happened to me. Neither one of these thoughts are real however each thought will create a different reality. Now when you think about it, which thought will provide you with a fulfilling marriage, this first thought of course, therefore you can choose what ever thought you desire and thus create your own reality.

But what if she believed you would be a bad husband?

[mtate35]

The point is if you believe that your wife is the best thing that ever happened then you would treat her as if she's the best thing that ever happened, therefore she would in turn love you for the great way that you treat her!

Marriage is a two way street. You start off hot and heavy loving each other like no tomorrow only to later stop doing the things that brought the love into the relationship. That's when the relationship goes bad. You must continue to think and feel later in the relationship, the same way you did at the beginning.

Remember what I'm saying, none of this stuff is real, you can think what ever you want to think, you can believe what ever you want to believe. You are the creator of your reality.

The point is, would you rather think or believe in something that gives you a happy and abundant life or would you rather think or believe in something that gives you a miserable and unfulfilled life. You have the choice!!
