Have you noticed how easy it seems to be to manifest a parking spot or a penny on the sidewalk, but a bit more challenging to manifest the house, love, or life of your dreams? Yes, you’ve asked the Universe for abundance, but you were expecting more than just pennies from heaven! Sometimes it seems like we spend so much time waiting for the things that we really want in life to manifest. The irony is when you say, ‘I…
According to Wikipedia, affirmations in New Thought and New Age (Law Of Attraction) terminology refer primarily to the practice of positive thinking and self-empowerment—fostering a belief that a positive mental attitude supported by affirmations will achieve success in anything. More specifically, an affirmation is a carefully formatted statement that should be repeated to one’s self and written down frequently. To affirm means to declare what is already present, so for affirmations to be effective, they need to be present tense be positive personal specific When you…
Through the Law Of Attraction, you can use your thoughts to manifest the career, the house, the car, and even the relationship of your dreams! Yes, the best way to seek a soul mate, or a life partner, is to use the Law Of Attraction. Instead of trying to force a great relationship, program your thoughts and let the Universe do all the hard work! If you’re looking for the love of your life, try these 4 steps: Know what…
Would life be different, if you believed that everything you loved and enjoyed was just right for you? What would happen if you knew yourself so well that you could say with confidence, “No thank you, I’d prefer…” How would you look at others if you really understood that their decisions, while not suitable for you, are perfect for them? PERSONAL PREFERENCES Personal preferences are specific likes and dislikes of an individual. While we as human beings have much in…
One of the most important steps in consciously using the Law of Attraction is learning to change –no manage – our expectations. Why? Because the Universe delivers exactly what we expect to see. The power of expectation is more than simple optimism, hope or wishing things will work out the way that you want; it is the confidence, assuredness, and belief that they will! Our expectations are formed on the foundations of our existing beliefs. If we believe ourselves to…
After the release of the movie The Secret everyone was talking about it. Heck, this entire blog is about it. What’s everyone talking about? This phenomenon we call the Law of Attraction of course! It is estimated that 1.4 billion people or nearly 1 every 4 people in believe in the Law Of Attraction. That’s a lot of visualizing and manifesting! Despite its popularity, many people always seem to ask the same question: “Does it really work?” The answer is…
As with all Universal Laws, the Law Of Attraction is inescapable, everywhere, and applicable to all situations. This means the Laws are always working whether you believe in them or not! Additionally, all Universal Laws also have guidelines that need to be applied for maximum success. As I highlighted on Facebook this week, for manifestation using the Law Of Attraction, these guidelines are: Visualize what you want. Desire must be accompanied by emotion, as it energized the vision. Believe that…
Have you ever thought about who you are? I mean who you really are? Are you the body you see every day in a mirror? Of course you’re not. Your body is constantly changing. It is different now than ten or twenty years ago. According to some scientists cells in our bodies are constantly replaced by newer ones. Although the scientists differ in their opinions, most of them agree that every seven years we have a completely new body. Not…
I came across this letter and I wanted to share it with you. I wonder how often you feel the way this reader did. I know I catch myself having counterproductive thoughts more often than I’d like . Thankfully, the quote goes “We become what we think about most of the time.” This means that we really only have to be positive 51% of the time. Clearly more is better, but if you’re having a bad day, week, or month…
What if you got the opportunity to study as the sole student under the greatest mind alive? That’s what Genevieve Behrend did, persuading Thomas Troward, the father of the New Thought discipline, to take her on – using solely the power of the Law of Attraction. In this excerpt from her book, Your Invisible Power (1921), Behrend tells us how that power worked for her to change her life by attracting $20,000 so she could travel to Troward and support…
Creative visualization = Imagination Creative visualization is by far one of the most powerful Law Of Attraction tools for goal setting and attracting what you want. Yet few people know how to properly visualize. With the right technique your visualizations can lead to outstanding manifestation results. To be clear: you are visualizing all the time. You may not be cognizant of it, but images are always swimming around in your mind. We think and listen in pictures. When you plan…
Hi there. If you’re reading this blog post (and I thank you for reading!), then you are someone who – like me – is looking to create a better life for yourself. You recognize that you are worth every good thing and you know that you create your reality with your thoughts. Thoughts become things. It’s simple, but not easy! Let’s face it. We live in an empirical society. Math and science. We believe what we can see and…
Buddha said “All that we are is the result of what we have thought.” Job 3: 25 NIV of the Bible’s Old Testament, declares “What I feared has come upon me; what I dreaded has happened to me.” It seems that both Buddha and Job understood the eternal workings of the Law Of Attraction. However, unlike the enlightened Buddha, Job – like the majority of people today – suffered the dire consequences of not using this law to his advantage!…
This is a question with many answers. Your physical body, broken down to its chemical elements – oxygen, carbon, hydrogen and the like – is worth about $1USD according to an article at thoughtco.com. The article goes on to say that if you include your skin, the value of your body jumps to $5 – about the price of a fast food value meal. On the other hand, if you sold your body piece by piece – bone marrow, kidneys,…
The Law of Attraction is the belief that your thoughts create your reality. As it is a universal law, it is working all the time whether you are conscious of it or not. According to the Law of Attraction, we are in our current life’s circumstance because of the thoughts we’ve had, and consequently, we can determine our future situations with the thoughts that we begin to have now. Once we become aware of the Law of Attraction we can…
It’s been almost a year since I started www.pleasures4evermore.com. I am deeply grateful that you have chosen to share my journey, leave comments, like and follow my Facebook page, and otherwise support this goal of mine. My intention when I started was to just jot down my thoughts and mostly encourage myself. But as I read and wrote and listened to feedback, it became clear that there are so many others like me who want to live a fuller life…
There are rules at home. A specific curriculum at school. Procedures at work. Manners, etiquette, protocols, edicts, mandates, etc.… Have you noticed that so much life conditioning inhibits the brilliance that is in us? From the time we can communicate, we are told how to behave, what to believe and which mold to fit in. In spite of (or because of) the messages that were ingrained in you as a child, are you sure that you are accessing all that…
The Power of the Spoken Word was written by Florence Scovel Shinn many years ago. In the book, Ms. Shinn explains how your words create your world, claiming that “Affirmations Work.” She claimed that those who didn’t know the power of their words were living behind the times. She wrote this book in the 1950s and, just like Think and Grow Rich (written in the 1930s) and Self-Help (written in the 1850s), its message still resonates today. Let’s imagine a…
Imagine what your life would be like if you had followed through on every inspired idea that you ever had. I mean the truly inspired ideas that you were convinced would improve your life or the lives of others in a significant way. Beyond that, imagine a world in which everyone else had also put all of their inspired ideas into action too. How many more businesses, books, charities, inventions, products, services, and relationships would exist in the world if everyone…
As I’ve begun to dig deeper into The Law of Attraction and all that it entails, I’ve found that there are some aspects that I thrive at and others that I struggle with. Similar to a geometry student who excels in segment bisectors but can’t quite grasp general convexity or a novice botanist who revels in plant anatomy but shirks away from plant genetics, I’ve found that I am good with affirmations and visualizing but am woefully impatient and thus…
In one of my many past jobs, I was a customer service agent for a major United States bank. Over time, I came to notice that although I greeted each caller with a pleasant “Good Morning, Who do I have the pleasure of speaking to?” many times, I was greeted not with a first and last name, but with “You should really do something about the automated system!” or “I’ve been on hold for 20 minutes.” Don’t get me wrong,…
We came into the world as a blank slate. We had no fears and knew no limits. As we grew and developed, we acclimated to our surroundings by adopting and internalizing the norms and beliefs of our environment. Some of these beliefs were good (My life is an incredible gift) and some were not so good (The world is a dangerous place). Some were downright destructive (I’m not good enough). By definition, a belief is an acceptance that a statement…
For the past several months, I’ve been telling you how to use the Law of Attraction to change your current circumstances and bring your dream life to reality. I’ve hit upon visualization, gratitude, giving, and managing your thoughts. We can meditate and recite affirmations until we’re blue in the face but fate isn’t going to simply deliver our dream life to us on a silver platter while we sit on the sofa watching TV, playing Xbox or PlayStation, or otherwise…
How many articles have you read that give you the 3 Ways To Use The Secret In Your Life or The 7 Ways to Use the Law of Attraction or The 11 Actions To Undertake for Wealth Consciousness? These all generally include topics of affirmations, visualizations, and gratitude. These practices put the responsibility on the individual. But there is one abundance action that I continue to read about over and over despite its counter-intuitiveness. It is one that puts the…
Ever wondered what “Thoughts being Things” has to do with the Law of Attraction? Henry Thomas Hamblin, an English mystic and New Thought author, figured it out and wrote about it in his book “Dynamic Thought”. He also tells how hypnotism and other occult mental work actually work against this Law – by attracting to yourself things you actually don’t want. You can learn through this book excerpt some of the precise explanations and instructional examples of how to apply the Law of Attraction effectively…
How many ads or articles have you seen that promised to show you how to manifest money fast? Granted, on the surface many of these claims may seem hard to believe. But there is an actual science to manifesting money rapidly. You can learn to apply this science to your life and begin to see great results before you know it. While many people trying to manifest money use visualization, affirmations, and other aspects of the Law of Attraction, very…
Some of the things people most desire to have, or to improve in their life are money, a loving relationship, a successful job, great health, a nice house, and a new car. Most people are content to just dream about these things, but think that they can never actually obtain them. What people don’t realize is that all of these things (and more) can be theirs through the power of manifestation. Manifesting ones desires is more than wishful thinking; it…
If you’re reading this right now you probably have been broke, are broke, or know someone who is struggling with being broke. The pain and suffering of being in this state is truly awful. Being broke causes thoughts of despair, feelings of failure, desperation, struggle, lack and need. Being broke prevents us from reaching our potential and from living our lives freely. Being broke prevents us from being wealthy. How is this possible? Because thoughts become things! If you believe…
In Matthew 13:12, Jesus tells us For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. This perceived redistribution of income from the rich to the richer rather than to the poor sounds like late 20th century capitalism instead of 1st century Gospel. Or the unattributed 16th century proverb “Money makes money”. Our initial response to both statements is that it is just not fair…
Regardless of how strong and able you are, you can do little in life by yourself. Life is a complex thing, and individuals are interdependent upon each other to make things happen. One individual, separated from everyone else, can accomplish little or nothing towards his personal goals or the societal goals. To be successful, we must form combinations, arrangements, harmonies and agreements with other people in conjunction with favorable environments and resources. Remember, no man is an island! We attract…
