AttractAnything! (the blog)

If it’s been a while since you first heard about the law of attraction and stared implementing it in your life, you might find that you have hit "the slump." "The slump" is my word for that period of time that comes after the first excitement over the discovery of the law of attraction has settled, and you start feeling a little disillusioned
because your millions have not manifested themselves.

If you are anything like me and a lot of other people, when you first started using attraction, you were baffled and exited at how it actually worked. After a while though, it may seem like it got harder to use the law of attraction, or like it somehow stopped working.

It is very common for people to hit "the slump" and give up on using the law of attraction all together. What happens when we get to this point is usually that attraction is not as new and exiting to us anymore, and we don’t dedicate as much time as we used to on the practices that will help us create the life we want. We gradually slip into our old, comfortable habits, and forget that as much as we might like them, they could have a negative effect on our lives.

If this is where you’re at, it is time to do a restart and go back to the basics! When was the last time you made or even looked at a vision board? When was the last time you meditated on money coming your way? As with almost anything else, after the novelty of it all wears off, we tend to not put the same amount of energy and attention to what we want to attract.

I suggest you start your back to basics approach by writing a gratitude list. Looking around you and listing what you are grateful for will steer your mind off negative feelings of discontent (and we all know what they will attract to you).

Here are a few more things you can do to get back on track:

1.Write a new set of goals. You might want different things today than you did when you first started.

2.Make a new vision board. You’re probably so used to the old one that you no longer even really see it.

3. Pay attention to the negative influences you get from the media and the people around you, and change what you focus on.

4. Set of time to meditate on wealth and visualize money coming your way.

5. Study the people you want to be like.

6. Read the books written by the old masters of the law of attraction like Wallace D. Wattles and Napoleon Hill.

These are just a few tips to help you get back on the horse. If you hit “the slump,” don’t waste time on doubt or worries; take action to move forward instead.

Stop looking at what you think is reality, and remind yourself that what you see around you today is the past, not the future.

For most
people who learn about the law of attraction and start using it in their life, the biggest challenge
is to take responsibility for the things manifesting in our life that we really
don’t like much.

We often fall into excuses like, “Well, I might have attracted some bad
things to me, but he/she did so and so, so it definitely wasn’t all me!”
I know these excuses as well as anyone, I find myself doing it too sometimes,
but I personally believe that there is no “but” when it comes to
the law of attraction. Whatever bad you have in your life, you single-handedly
attracted. If this situation involves another person, they might have been attracting
bad things to them as well, making them play a “role” in your negative
attraction, but their actions are not part of the reason why you’ve attracted
bad things.

Other people do not attract in our life; they can happen to be an extra, or
even a supporting actor in our life “movie”, but you are the writer/director,
and you can not blame an actor for something that’s wrong in the script
you’ve written.

It doesn’t matter if we are talking about people we are very close to
or mere acquaintances, the people around us are never to blame when we feel
bad. If your spouse did something that made you feel bad, you attracted a situation
where your spouse was going to make you feel bad. Of course, your spouse attracted
the same situation, but the part where you got hurt would not have been there
had you not attracted it.

We have a neighbor that is very loud at times. The interesting thing is that
this neighbor didn’t use to be loud, I never heard him and didn’t
really think much about him until one day he was playing very loud repetitive
music that could be plainly heard from my home office. This was a one time event.
But I became stressed because I had a lot of work to do, and responded to it
as if it was a long-running, non-stop annoyance. I even visualized going next
door and telling my neighbor exactly what an inconsiderate jerk I thought he
was.

What do you think happened? After focusing with passion on what a loud and
inconsiderate neighbor I had, what do you know; the neighbor started being loud
more and more often, day and night. As pre-programmed, I got more and more annoyed
until I realized the loop I was in.

I had to start visualizing the opposite. I tried to notice all the times I
didn’t hear the neighbor, and focus on all the times he had bee really
helpful and considerate. I still heard some noise every now and then, but I
didn’t let it bother me. Rather than seeing him as an inconsiderate jerk,
I tried to imagine that he was loud because he decided to do something good
for himself, like was working out. Or maybe he was cleaning the house before
his wife came home. He was listening to loud electronica because music was his
passion etc.

Gradually I stopped noticing the sounds all together, and not just because
I was blocking them out; my neighbor is simply not loud anymore! The law of attraction is truly the gift that keeps on giving; as long as we focus on something,
we will continue to attract it to us. It’s up to us to decide what the
gift is going to be.
