subject: The Law of Attraction is a Force in Your Life [print this page] To properly practice the so-called 'Law of Attraction' you need to clear your mind. There is little point in filling your mind with thoughts of things that you want - plenty of research suggests that pretty much no one knows for sure what they truly want. It would be far more effective - far more in tune or in flow with the way the universe works - to fill your mind with the only place and time where life is really lived - the here and now. The universe only exists moment to moment in the here and now. Life can only respond to your input in the here and now. As Ekhart Tolle might say, there is enormous power in Now. If you fill your mind - turn your full attention - to the present moment, you will drag your subconscious away from its obsession with both the past and the negative deeply embedded subconscious fantasies that have your life where you find it at present. You will become truly focused - efficient, effective, inspired and inspiring. In this state of mind you will attract the very best in life, enabling you rise to places that normal people will never ever go.
