subject: The Law Of Visualization [print this page] Fundamentally, what the Law of Attraction tells you is that you get what you constantly think about. According to this concept, your life is not dictated by random circumstances which we call fate. This would mean that your life is controlled by mere chance. The Law of Attraction claims that you can make your life what you want it to be by your own conscious as well subconscious thoughts. That is the power of thinking.
In order to have the Laws of Attraction work in your own life, you will need to be aware and ask for the things that you desire. Then you can start planning on what to do once you get it. this isn't saying that you should ask for money and then spend like it's going out of style. But you can start thinking about the things you want to spend it on once it does arrive.
The hardest part for most people is to be open to receiving it. This is where doubting you really deserve it can prevent anything good from happening. If you don't think you deserve good things, they won't come to you.
Another problem some people have is thinking about the things they don't want to happen to them. The thought fulfilling universe doesn't understand the concept of 'I don't want'. If you spend your time dwelling on negative things, that's what you're going to get.
The Law of attraction isn't going to solve all your problems overnight. But if you start practicing it on a conscious level, eventually it will become second nature to you. You won't have to steer your mind to thoughts of positive things. It will already be there. Positive thoughts breed positive actions and reactions. Give it an honest try and you may be pleasantly surprised.
When mankind started realizing there was more to life than just surviving, philosophy was born. Philosophical and religious ideas began forming. About this time, the idea that we could control our lives with the power of our thoughts started taking hold. And this idea has never lost its appeal or its believers.
We are what we think. It's a concept almost as old as time itself. From Hinduism, Buddhism, ancient Greek philosophers to modern day religions, this same belief has been taught. The name of this idea has changed over the centuries. It seems like every other generation feels the need to change it. They feel like it's necessary to make the idea something new and original in an attempt to attract new believers.
Positive thinking and the Law of Attraction are two concepts that have received a great deal of attention for the past two centuries. Both these concepts were accepted by a lot of people. The movie, The Secret, released in the year 2006, was based on the concept of the Law of Attraction, and this brought about a revival of its popularity and general acceptance. Ever since it came into the world as a religion, Christianity has said the same thing: Ask, and you shall receive. Christians call this as the awesome power of prayer.
It doesn't matter what it's called, it's the same conceptually either way. When you ask for something, have faith that you will receive it. Also, you need to believe without a doubt that you are worthy of having it. No matter what name you decide to give it, positive thinking and the belief that you are meant for great things will vastly improve the quality of your life.
