The law of attraction is a concept that has
been discussed and debated for a long time. Does it work? How does it work, why
doesn’t it work for me, the way I anticipated?
In short, the law of attraction works
constantly and precisely. We learned from studying chemistry as young children
that like attracts like…that’s exactly how it works.
Every thought and experience we have
creates a chemical reaction in our body. Did you know that it’s estimated that
we think about 60.000 thoughts per day? Most of them we are repeating from the
day before and the day before that.
Most of our thoughts are negative thoughts.
This can be traced to the fact that thousands of years ago, we had to be
careful, fearful and cautious as a species, danger was everywhere, it was
literally eat or be eaten.
Today however, we have managed to avoid the
every day danger with different circumstances, but we still tend to hold on to
the fear in our minds! Watch out for them, don’t talk to strangers, protect
your assets, your ego, I’m not enough etc…. you get the point.
Your reality is a symptom of your emotions,
a projection of your thoughts. Not literally, but a projection of the energetic
vibration of your emotions and your feelings….. like attracts like!
Thus, the way to change what you project
would have to be to change what you think of…. So how does one do that?
1.
What you focus on becomes real.
Learn how to focus by meditating, practicing mindfulness, reading
using Albert Einstein’s concentration technique, sitting still, yoga, martial
arts…the methods are endless. Find one that suits you and start practicing.
We drift in and out of focus around 6-10
times per minute. Even while reading these few paragraphs, your focus has probably
drifted a few times. If you are not focused on what you want to see happen in
your life most of the time….well guess what, chances are you won’t see it
happen in the future unless you make a shift.
Personally I like Mindfulness meditation as
I can do them anywhere, fully alert, awake and open to my experience at the
time. If you prefer guided meditations, I recommend the stillness project by
Tom Cronin.
2.
Figure out what you are passionate about
What do you love doing? What makes you
happy? Write it down as a list of 5-10 things and commit to doing at least one
or two activities from your list daily for 2-3 weeks. When you focus on things
that make you happy, chances are you will attract more circumstances into your
life that have the potential to raise your permanent happiness bar.
I recommend reading The passion test by
Janet Attwood, or simply going back to the time in your life when you seemed to
be the happiest and write down what you were doing at the time.
3. Rewire
your brain
By learning something new, you’re making
new connections in your brain. By practicing what you learned for an extended
period of time, you make those connections permanent. This is both good and bad
news as you can just as easily create habits that are not improving your
outcome or your personal growth. But after finding out what you are passionate
about, what you wish to contribute towards, you can, with focused intent,
create habits that help you reach your desired outcome.
How about focusing on the future you, the
person you want to become? What will you be doing when you life is perfect?
What will you look like? Who are you spending your time with? Where in the
world are you? Get a clear sense of why you want to be that way and take some
time every day to focus on that.
4.
Learn to love yourself
For the above to really sink in and work
for you, you need to get rid of your limiting beliefs about yourself. I’m
serious about this. My whole style of coaching clients evolves around helping
them lose the limiting beliefs they have about themselves, the “story” they
have grown accustomed to telling, the identity they have identified with, the
string of words that over the years have become beliefs. If they are not
helping….your number one priority should be to exchange them for better, more
loving and uplifting beliefs about yourself. Your subconscious rules! What
sit’s in there is the ruler of your thoughts, emotions, feelings and yes…the
symptoms you see in your life.
We are creatures of habit. If you want to
change your outcome I recommend personal coaching above all else. It keeps you
on track, accountable, focused and constantly moving forward. It doesn’t matter
whether you are reaching for a specific goal or if you just want to finally get
rid of your fear of spiders, personal coaching, as I do it, will find the right
solution for you. We are all different as in what we are searching for, but
deep down inside we are all the same. Learning to love yourself is the starting
point to mastering the rest of your life.
