My True Power

 Why do it even when some days seem crummy?  Because everyday is an amazing blessing.  When you are thankful for what you already have you are increasing your gratitude, which in turn attracts more abundance into your life.  So every day you have the opportunity to practice the law of attraction by appreciating what is already working. 

Start the morning by drinking a glass of water and being humbly thankful for such a pure supply of water, go for a walk and be thankful your legs that work so well.  Eat breakfast and be thankful for an abundant food supply, it wasn’t long ago in human history where having mere calories to consume made us hominids overjoyed.

Then become thankful that you have shelter today.  If you can become sincerely thankful for even these simple things, right then you will begin attracting more abundance, but it will be more of the simpler kind.  To begin to channel this thankfulness into more advanced things that you do not yet have, do the following.

Think of the one thing or condition that makes you the most grateful, get a strong hold on how this makes you feel, if you have to remember that’s fine as long as you can create a strong feeling of thanks in your mind.  Then use the same feeling to be thankful for the thing or condition you do not yet have, be thankful as though it has already happened.

This title sounds like a paradox doesn’t it?  I mean if you live in abundance then you should have plenty right?  Yes you will, by understanding this paradox.  If you are always spending less money than you earn, then you are in the process of becoming wealthy.  Then as time goes on you are increasing your wealth and abundance gradually overtime.  This wealth helps you get even wealthier as little emergencies don’t cause you to use your credit card or panic if you don’t have one.

Saving 10% is a good method mentioned by countless others.  You save 10% of EVERY dollar you earn, period.   For some who are used to living within or even beyond thier means this will sound difficult, but you simply have to do it if you want to become wealthy.  You will find the bills still get paid if you are careful.

This is a practical exercise that will help you have an overall attitude that attracts abundance because as you build your wealth you will have peace of mind that breeds confidence and positive thinking.

When you are looking for a job, fear is an enemy that rears it’s ugly head. You may not think you are in fear but analyze why a job interview is so nerve wracking. There is a clingy and grasping feeling that says “I better get this one…ohhh c’mon”. This comes from a fear of rejection and is very primal to our nature. But for the most part it is misplaced. We live in a very dynamic economy in the developed and even developing economies, opportunities can and do spring up all of the time.

So, how to we use the secret or the law of attraction to our advantage in job seeking? Get out a pen and paper. Then write down all of the things you want from your new job, keep it relatively short with a few very specific qualities. Then write down the virtues you have and want your new employer to appreciate you for. After these two lists are done, relax and imagine what it’s like now that you have this job, imagine being apprenticed for your performance and work ethic. Then send some resumes and make some calls with a cheerful attitude. Later, do this exercise before bed, then again in the morning until you succeed.

Keep your list to remind you of what to meditate on.

How do you attract a negative? You don’t. It’s that simple, the law of attraction and the secret can only be used in a “positive” way. Even though the things you attract may not be positive at all.

To rid yourself of poverty you need to attract wealth, to rid yourself of sickness you need to attract health.You have to focus on what is is you want to attract and let that guide your imagination. Your imagination steers the ship. This is why it’s up you to take good care of your imagination and make sure you are focused on what is positive and good for all including you.

Here is an exercise that someone told me once that I found to be very useful.  The purpose is to build confidence using memories of past events.  While many of us replay negative failure memories over an over, there are also success memories that you can use to your advantage.

You start with a pen an piece of paper, you can type but I feel the pen and paper make it more real.  Think of something you did successfully yesterday, even if all you can get is “woke up and made it to work, or emailed resume to 10 possible jobs and made 3 followup calls” anything you can say you positively accomplished.  Then go back one day, one week, one month, a year, a decade.  

The further you go back you will be able to find larger and larger successes.  What this will show you is that you have a track record of success, this will aid you in the law of attraction as your attitude will reflect a more successful you and you will attract success and abundance into your life.  Try it, let me know if it helps.

Probably the most important part of using the law of attraction for success is changing your mind.  That is the secret to attracting abundance and success.  By changing your mind I mean changing your perception which in turn changes and sculpts your reality.  Most of us have many limiting beliefs, many of which we are unaware of in the present moment.  Usually a success oriented book or program will have you go through mental exercises that will help you identify the limiting beliefs.  This is very powerful as many times simply understanding the limiting belief gives you all you need to defeat it.  But this process can be time consuming and painful.

When you use hypnosis properly and carefully you can bypass and replace existing limiting beliefs, sometimes with rapid speed.  While it’s not a cure all it can be used very successfully to attract abundance and success into your life.  But you have to stick with it allowing the initial subtle changes to motivate you to continue.  

You do not have to fall asleep for the suggestions to work, you simply relax and allow for the possibility that the statements spoken by the hypnotist are true.  Over time your thinking will change and you will be automatically using the law of attraction for a life of abundance. 

Here are a couple of great hypnotists:

We gotta stick with the program if we want results.  It’s as simple as that.  One trap some of us self helpers can fall into is looking for the next solution that will magically change everything.  If your like me you have tons of books CDs mp3 that all showed great promise and you might even recommend them to you friends.  But did these programs produce results?  Well that is up to you, you are the solution that will magically change everything.

So as a general rule, any time you buy a book or cd, start using affirmations or afformations.  Stick with it for 21 days in a 30 day period.  This formula comes from Maxwell Maltz’s Psycho-Cybernetics and seems like a good way to stick with a program while allowing time for a breather when you need it.

The law of abundance tells us there is enough for everyone and that scarcity is an illusion.  While this may seem absurd to some, please note that there is much waste in the world, farmers are paid to burn crops etc…

But if you’re online reading this chances are you have enough to eat and some shelter, this is a good start for using the law of abundance.  Life abundance is a kind of consciousness where you affirm that there is enough, and it starts right now, you have enough right now, when this happens you begin to lose the clingyness that pushes things away from you, you begin to attract abundance rather than repel it.  It’s a paradox where the law of abundance shows no mercy, you must feel abundance to have abundance, we all have life abundance.

One thing I like to do when I want to fell more life abundance is look at a shopping mall or large set of buildings and imagine all the wealth that went into it’s creation, then imagine all the wealth created by the structures in return.  But you don’t need to marvel at human achievements, the earth is wealthy and abundant beyond comprehension and you are a part of it.

This Great Little book takes a unique view on affirmations.  It basically turns them upside down into a question form.  This presupposes the desired condition.  So instead of “I am wealthy” we say “Why am I so wealthy.”  I have to say I feel much better doing it this way.
