Why the BLEEP isn't the Law of Attraction Working?

This is Volume 1 of an on-going series of posts that I am calling “What the Bleep…”.

On a regular basis, probably weekly, I will be tackling some of the finer points of how to actually make certain things happen in your life, and I will be detailing those thoughts in descriptive posts characterized with BLEEP in the title. For example:

“What the BLEEP is…”

“How the BLEEP do I…”

“Why the BLEEP isn’t…”

Look for frequent posts in this area as I put forth the Intention of helping people take control of their lives by getting into the “nitty gritty” of how to use some of the common self improvement and conscious creation methods.

For this entry, let’s get on with discussing the question of why you (think) the Law of Attraction isn’t working for you.

I put the word think in the previous sentence in parentheses for a reason, because there is no such thing as the LOA not working. It is always working, around the clock, for all people, no matter if they believe in it or not.

To say that it isn’t working because you don’t understand how to use it would be the same thing as saying that the Law of Gravity only works for people who believe in it.

If you drop your favorite glass coffee cup from a significant distance onto your tile floor, that cup is going to break. Do you think that the cup believes in the Law of Gravity?

Moving forward…

Now that we have established that the Law of Attraction is always working, regardless of belief levels, we now have the task of determining why it “seems” to work for some people, but not for others.

Steve Pavlina recently put forth a post along these lines where he uses some common examples to describe the difference between wanting something, and bringing forth the energy that will actually manifest that thing into your life.

Steve is 100% right, because that is exactly where people fail to get exactly the results that they wanted when it comes to consciously creating their lives. It’s not the method they are using that is at fault, but the way that they feel about the method that they are using.

In order to actually get what you want when using the Law of Attraction, it is not the thing that you want that is in question. You could want anything from a shiny penny all the way up through a million dollars, and the Universe is going to apply exactly the same energy and methods in order to bring you what you want in both of those instances.

In fact, the Universe applies exactly the same energy and methods to everything that it does. It is only our “human” beliefs about what is easy or what is difficult that get in the way, because we then put out vibrations (via our emotions) that send the clear message to the universal powers that we believe that getting [insert your goal here] is going to be difficult.

The only way that you are going to be able to manifest the things that you want in your life is to put out vibrations that are in resonance with the things that you desire.

It is not possible to sit around and think about how broke you are, yet magically manifest a pile of money.

You cannot lament about how depressed you are every day, and then expect that you are going to be delivered into a life of utter happiness.

You can’t drive your piece of junk car every day, think about how much of a piece of junk it is, and expect that the Universe is going to drop a brand-new Mustang into your driveway.

Do you see the pattern here?

In each of those examples, the thing that you wanted and the feelings that you were putting out to the Universe were completely opposite of each other.

That’s like trying to turn left and right at the same time. It’s not going to happen!

In order to manifest the things that you want in your life with the Law of Attraction, you have to do what James Arthur Ray calls going “three for three.” You you have match up your thoughts, your feelings, and your actions.

1) Think about what you want on a regular basis, preferably many times throughout each day.

2) Feel what it will be like to have the thing that you desire, and feel joyous about having it.

3) Take whatever action you are inspired to take in order to bring that thing into your existence.

How do you feel like you have something that you don’t actually have? The Theater of the Mind, dear reader, the Theater of the Mind.

If you can imagine it, and you can believe that it is possible, then you can manifest it into your reality. W. Clement Stone said “Anything the mind of man can conceive, it can achieve” and Mr. Stone was absolutely correct.

Here is the problem, though. Most people don’t spend enough time seeing their goals in their mind in order to then bring those goals into reality! They make a token effort here, and a token effort there, but the majority of their time is spent not thinking about and feeling about the things that they want.

I posted awhile ago about how desire is the single most important part of self improvement. It doesn’t matter whether you want world peace, or if you just want your lawn mower to start on the first pull. You have to want your goal so badly that you can’t NOT think about it. Then, the power of your desire will lead you down a path that is absolutely 100% guaranteed to bring that desire into your life.

So, the question now becomes, “How badly do you want it?”

Do you get excited just thinking about your goal? Are you afraid to talk to people about your goal because they have heard about it so many times already that they stop taking your phone calls? Do you write poetry, compose music, or draw pictures about your goals? Are there visual, auditory, or tactile reminders about your goals placed all over your house, your car, and your place of business?

Is your goal the driving force that gets you out of bed in the morning and powers your very existence?

Do you think that those types of examples are silly, or far-fetched? If you do, then I now pronounce you an official graduate of ‘Why the BLEEP isn’t the Law of Attraction Working University’.

You have discovered why the LOA isn’t working for you. The question is, what are you going to do about it?
