If you have issues related to building wealth, abundance and scarcity, it's likely that you have explored positive thinking, visualization, and the Law of Attraction. If you are getting what you want from applying these principles, you can stop reading now.
WHEN A SWEET IDEA TURNS SOUR If you love the idea of attraction but stub your toes when it comes to getting consistent results, believe me, I understand.
Perhaps, like me, you remember a time when you first realized the power of your thoughts. Wow! There you were, confidently stepping into a future that was not determined by your past, and the whole enterprise was imbued with enthusiasm (en-theos; filled with God) and lightness. What's not to love?
And then perhaps, attraction and positive thinking seemed to stop working. No matter how you badgered yourself, regardless of how much inspirational literature you read, you appeared stuck in an unsatisfactory current reality. And then, maybe, you tried harder.
YOU CAN'T STEER WHEN YOU ARE HOLDING ON FOR DEAR LIFE Trying to make the Law of Attraction work against apparent evidence to the contrary is like climbing onto a unicycle at the top of a hill and trusting momentum to keep you from falling. The more energy you put into your carefully crafted (and sincere) intentions, the harder you hit the ground when intention crashes into Reality.
When the Law of Attraction is working, the rewards far exceed your efforts. When it isn't, no matter how much energy you put in, you stay stuck. Fortunately, there is an explanation for both outcomes, and it can restore you to right relationship with infinite possibility.
A SHORT, PAINLESS DETOUR THROUGH PHYSICS It's impossible to get more energy out of a system than it is put in. That's the law of conservation of matter and energy, and neither you nor I are in a good position to contravene it. When the Law of Attraction produces results that outstrip your efforts, the only possible explanation is another source of power.
I call that power Reality. You may call it God, Spirit, Consciousness, The Universe – the name is immaterial. What matters is recognizing that attraction works by virtue of a power other than and greater than yourself.
GOOD NEWS AND BAD NEWS The good news about the Law of Attraction is that it works. The bad news is that you are the Tonto to Reality's Lone Ranger, the Sancho Panza to Reality's Don Quixote. And that, friends, is why your best efforts can run you ragged instead of producing the results you long for, be it building wealth or anything else.
Whenever you use The Law of Attraction to escape something undesirable or get to something you think will be better, it is doomed to failure. That's because you are objecting to Reality, the senior partner in your enterprise.
When you try to manifest change without accepting Reality, you are up against the principles of leverage and traction.
