Most likely, you’re familiar with the magic lamp that Aladdin finds in the Cave of Wonders. The lamp homes a blue genie who grants the owner of the lamp Three Wishes to make their dreams come true. While you may not have a magic lamp with a wish-granting genie hiding inside, you DO have the power to create unlimited abundance in your life.
Let’s chat about the Law Of Attraction. What is it?
Most simply put: What you send out, returns to you.
A similar concept to the law of attraction is Karma. The two are often used interchangeably, however, Karma is different. Karma is the idea that what actions and words you share with others, or inflict upon others, will be returned to you 3 or 7-fold.
On the other hand, the Law of Attraction is the idea that you would use the power of your mind to make your dreams manifest in your real and daily life.
The Law of Attraction says that your thoughts will eventually materialize. It’s not something you have to do consciously. The phenomenon in question happens whether you work it intentionally or not. You can put the Law of Attraction into practice consciously and with an effort to effect change in the direction of your life.
You’ve actually probably done something like this already. Have you ever created a vision board? Have you ever stopped for a moment to consider where you want to be in 5, 10, or even 20 years? Sadly, the vast majority of people don’t even do that. Even fewer people put conscious thought into where they want their lives to lead.
The law of attraction has the power to affect your life in a multitude of ways. Whether you put conscious effort into it or not, you feel the effects.
Have you ever thought about something, only to see the same thing you thought about later that day? It’s kind of spooky when it happens.
Whether we’re talking about your love life, the relationships you have with your significant others, the status of your bank accounts, building wealth, feeling anxiety or confidence, navigating the hurdles of your mental and physical health, your physical weight, and even dealing with other people, we’re also talking about how the law of attraction has affected you. The Law of Attraction for Making Your Dreams Come True
The Law of Attraction is that like attracts like. If you want to succeed and live your dreams, you can use the Law of Attraction to help manifest your desires. The Law of Attraction helps the universe bring you fulfillment and makes your dreams come true.
All dreams begin as your thoughts. What your mind wants becomes what your spirit dreams. When you take action for your thoughts, the universe knows what you desire and how you see yourself living your dreams. Your thoughts and actions help the universe to grant you the blessings of your dreams.
Because the Law of Attraction is like to like, you need to focus your thoughts and dreams on what you truly desire. Doubt, fear, and worry will only attract those issues back to you.
Instead, you can use the Law of attraction purposefully for good by:
Making your thoughts and dreams clear
Taking action
Being Positive
Using your time wisely
Making Your Thoughts and Dream Clear
If you send mixed signals to the universe about what you want, the universe will send you mixed blessings. You can only manifest what you send out because the Law of Attraction brings it back to you. Making your thoughts and dreams clear gives the universe the right roadmap to send you your dreams.
Consider the dream of having more money. What do you define as "more?" Your dream needs to be specific for the universe to grant your desire. The Law of Attraction will bring you more, but if you haven't defined what more is to you, the Law of Attraction is left to answer your blessing vaguely. If what you want is to have enough money for a vacation, setting your intention for only "more money" may not fulfill your dream.
Taking Action
Once you've set a clear intention, think, and act, knowing that the blessing is yours. Don't wait for your dream to manifest. Live every day, believing the Law of Attraction is working to help you. Too often, people ask the universe for something but don't act toward their goal. Because the Law of Attraction is like attracts like, the changes you need in your life come when you take action to manifest your dreams.
Imagine your intention is to have a group of good friends to spend time with and do activities together. If you keep to yourself, don't engage with other people, and ignore invitations to events, the Law of attraction can only bring you more of the same. Your actions determine what the Law of Attraction can provide. To have a good group of friends, you need to be open to meeting new people and act like a good friend.
Being Positive
Like attracts like, right? Then negativity attracts negativity, and positive thoughts and actions attract positive manifestations. If you doubt, worry, or fear your success, the universe will not grant you your dreams. The negative thoughts and emotions you send out will come back to you through the Law of Attraction, and you won't feel or believe you have received your desires.
Use Your Time Wisely
The universe grants your dreams at the right time. Sending out an intention but wasting your time by not acting toward or not believing in your manifestation often causes you to do the opposite of attracting what you want. The universe knows when you're not ready to receive your blessing, and the Law of attraction will not bring it to you.
Making your dreams come true is possible with the Law of Attraction. Using the Law of Attraction clearly, positively, actively, and wisely helps the universe grant you your true desires.
