The ‘Law Of Attraction’ seems to have been the buzz word over the past few years with movies like ‘What The Bleep Do We Know’ and ‘The Secret’. The thought of attracting and creating anything we want in life is certainly exciting and inspiring. I personally believe in the Law Of Attraction and the power of creating our own future. However, there seems to be a lot of scepticism and ‘grey areas’ around the subject.
Is the law of attraction real and does it work; is it actually a universal law? The theory is that we become and attract what we think about most of the time. It’s been knocking around the personal development world for decades and decades. Napoleon Hill was the first person that introduced the concept to me in the book ‘Think And Grow Rich’, an awesome and life changing book.
The late great Earl Nightingale also said “We become what we think about all day long” (or words to that affect). So, do our thoughts become reality, do we become what we think about and focus on and are thoughts really ‘things’?
Well, like I mentioned earlier, I personally do believe in the law of attraction and I have personal experiences to support my belief. But surely there is more to the law of attraction than simply just ‘thinking’ about what we want in life and waiting for it to magically appear. I mean let’s be honest and realistic, if you were to sit on the end of your bed saying “I am a millionaire….I am a millionaire….I am a millionaire” whilst visualising $1 million in your hands, you’ll probably have a long wait before the $1 million appears.
It’s for this reason I think that a lot of people get disheartened or even depressed when things do not work out, or magically appear the way they wanted and then give up on their dreams and goals. So, it seems we need to be a bit more specific, a bit more clarity if you please. The sometimes overlooked and probably most important ingredient is actually staring us right in the face. The law of attrACTION…..did you catch that? Yes, ACTION.
This was explained and made clearer to me recently by one of today’s greatest entrepreneurs and business minds and one of my personal mentors, Mr. Dan Kennedy. Dan said quite openly that the ‘law of attraction’ is NOT a law. He explains that gravity is a law, meaning, you don’t have to think positively or negatively about it. In fact it even works on inanimate objects which have no thought process.
If you step off a building or drop an object from a height, you and ‘it’ are going to hit the ground….simple.
He goes on to say that attraction is something that is MADE to happen, a product of strategies, of thoughts and of ACTION and behaviours. Pretty mind altering when you get it. The ‘secret’ is not in how you think. Thinking does not make it so, as he jokes saying, “If that’s true then where’s my ham sandwich?” He continues tongue in cheek by saying, “If we become what we think about, then I’m going to turn into a girl…”
What he is saying is that the law of attraction itself is NOT a lie, but the error is in the omission, or what’s left out. Meaning, thoughts CAN become things, only when certain actions are taken. This is very, very important and where a lot of people get caught out. They think that all they have to do is think about wealth and abundance and it will magically appear.
It’s not to say that this is impossible, but I’m sure you’ll agree that it’s highly unlikely. There would certainly be a lot more wealthy people out there and the lottery jackpot would be divided among a lot more people.
So, there are a lot of ingredients that go into the ‘law of attraction’, thinking…belief…behaviour, but most importantly…ACTION! Well, actually Dan says ‘behaviour’ is the secret, which I agree with. However, we can study the behaviour and the consistent commonalities of all the successful people on the planet, but nothing gets done without taking that all important ACTION.
Find those that are successful, or have achieved what you’re looking to achieve and model them to the letter, take massive continuous ACTION.
Make the law of attraction work for you. You can be rich; you can attract wealth and financial abundance into your life, as soon as you take the appropriate action towards that goal. Your thinking and belief will shift you to another level. And if you don’t believe in the ‘law of attraction’ at all, you might want to ask yourself how you came to be reading this right now.

does the law of attraction only work by takeing physical action only?
people say you need to take physical action for the law of attraction. then people all around the world saying they can change things like cure eye sight and even make eye sight come back if you are blind. they say on the secret I have seen kidneys regenerated and eye sight come back then how did they take action to make there eye sight come back if they were blind, there is no action for that if your blind your blind and there is no cure for it.
i think you can only take the secret so far. As in stay positive be positive. When your up your up and when your down your down. But I don’t think it can cure illness. Its just better if your body has something to fight for. Blind is blind your right. Seen a funny video on the secret on youtube you should check it out below

As with anything else in life, nothing is completely simple and has only one way to approach it.
There are times that the Law of Attraction requires no action and other times when it does. It has to be taken on a case by case basis.
Obviously, if you want a job, you have to look for one and go on interviews etc.
In the case of healing, with strong intent, it will happen. It may require a doctor or holistic practitioner and it may not. It is best to let go of trying to figure out how it will happen.With the proper intent, you will be guided by spirit as to what you should do. Then if action is required, you will do your part.
So just start with your thoughts and visualization and wait to be led where you should go next.

Hi Dimon –
The Law of Attraction refers to the idea that what you focus on you attract. For example, if you focus on getting a new job, picture it, believe it in your mind 100%, you will draw a new job to you. But and this is a big thing, you must take inspired action toward achieving your desired goal. Taking steps to make the goal happen are very important! Whether the step is an attitude shift or belief change or an actual physical step like walking a mile to lose weight. So yes, I do strongly believe steps of "action" are required for Law of Attraction success!

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. The Law of Attraction involves knowing what to ask for and to be willing to follow whatever path opens up for you. I’m certain that the LoA can cure blindness or heal the body, and that in some cases it may take physical action to initiate that cure or healing. In some cases, it may not.
I do know, however, that you don’t need some nonsensical ‘key report’ on the Law of Attraction.
