The law of attraction is not a new idea. It has always been here from
ancient times, and people have always used it. Hunters, who painted
scenes of hunting on the walls of caves thousands of years ago, used the
law of attraction, as well as modern businessmen, who visualize what
they wish to accomplish. You use it too, whenever you think, make plans
or daydream.
Books on this subject started to be popular more than a hundred years
ago, but the authors of these books did not use the term "the law of
attraction". They called it the law of opulence, mental power, mental
magic, the power of thoughts or creative visualization. It is the same
law, the same power, only with a different name.
Many years ago, William Walker Atkinson, Richard Ingalese, Opheil and
many others, have written books on the power of the mind to attract
what one thinks about, and these books are still popular and available
nowadays at bookstores. Other known authors are Joseph Murphy, Napoleon
Hill and Wallace.D.Wattle. Later, Shakti Gawain wrote a book on the
subject and popularized the term "Creative Visualization".
All of these books are about what is now termed as
"The law of attraction".
As you see, it is not a new subject, but due to the media, it became a
"hot" subject today. If you look around in bookstores, the Internet, TV
and the newspapers, you will find many new books and articles on this
subject budding every day. This brings to mind the well-known phrase,
"there is nothing new under the sun". It is the same subject with a
different name.
The message of all these books is that if you keep thinking upon a
certain subject, you will ultimately attract it into your life.
Thoughts, mental images and feelings can move the subconscious mind and
the Universal Mind to act on your behalf and manifest your desires.
This is a most inspiring and elating idea, but inspiration and
feelings of elation are not enough. You need to know what to do and how
to proceed; otherwise you will get no results. You need to do more than
just daydream for a t put some effort into this project and do not apply
certain mental rules, you might not get results, and this can lead to
disappointment, discouragement and to losing of faith in the law of
attraction and the powers of the mind.
Reading books or articles about the law of attraction awaken a
sensation of few moments, once in a while, about what you wish to get or
achieve. If you don'power. The realization that you can transform your
life and create success brings excitement and hope, but these feelings
can change into disappointment and frustration, if you don't know what
to do next.
If you are told that you can create anything you want, but are not
provided with the proper guidance and practical instructions, how can
you proceed?
It is not enough just to visualize a goal for a few minutes, and then
let doubts and disbelief fill your mind for the rest of the day.
It is not enough just to visualize a few times, and then wait for miracles to happen.
- You need to have a strong desire and motivation, and the commitment to do whatever is necessary to achieve your goal.
- You need persistence, concentration, the ability to visualize, and at least some degree of self-discipline.
- You need to learn to recognize opportunity when it appears, and to be willing and ready to take and use this opportunity.
- You need to be willing to act and take the required steps
whenever needed, and not just wait for your desires to materialize from
thin air or suddenly drop on you from the sky.
In order to take full advantage of the law of attraction you need to
know certain rules and follow them. It is true, some people achieve
great success, without knowing much or anything about it, but they
intuitively use it correctly.
The law of attraction is not a method for getting rich quickly,
without doing anything. It requires mental work, focus and
visualization, and also the willingness to follow the mental work with
any required actions on the physical plane.
