Why The Law Of Attraction Doesn’t Work

Published October 21st, 2008

It’s true you know, despite what you’ve heard, despite what you’ve read, despite what all the success guru’s have told you, the law of attraction doesn’t work.

I know, I know, it’s hard to take in isn’t it?

After all, like many people you’ve probably been pinning all your hopes on ‘attracting’ success and happiness and wealth into your life by thinking positive thoughts, by focusing on what you want
from life and by ‘intentioning’ the life you want for yourself.

If you’re a true believer in the ‘Law’ of Attraction you’ve probably also been practicing gratitude, telling yourself that ‘thoughts become things’ and reminding yourself as often as you can that you ‘become what you think about’.

In short, you’ve been doing everything you’re ’supposed’ to do to activate the law of attraction but, well, where has it got you?

If you’re healthier, wealthier, wiser and happier as a result then congratulations. You probably don’t need to read on any further.

You’ve obviously found a way to make the law work in your life.

However, if you’re like the bulk of people who follow the law of attraction philosophies and yet are still struggling to find the happiness, contentment and success you’re seeking then read on because I’m about to reveal the REAL ’secret’ to the law of attraction and show you how you can apply it in your life to
achieve dramatic, often immediate results.

But before I do, let me tell you what the Law of attraction is NOT, that way you’ll stop wasting your time and energies on things that don’t produce results in your life.

The Law of Attraction is NOT:

You become what you think about.

I know, I know, I’m going against what practically every motivational and self help guru has been telling us for as long as we can remember.

In fact, I myself believed this until recently and often taught this principle to anybody and everybody who would listen. But I was wrong.

You DON’T become what you think about at all. If you did then most teenage boys would turn into pretty young girls!

A silly comparison I know, but no less silly than the idea that we really become what we think about.

There are many, many things we think about every day and some that we feel strongly and emotionally attached to but we don’t become that thing.

What about ‘Thoughts become things’? Right or wrong?

Well, in the truest physical and even metaphysical sense, thoughts are made of energy and energy is a ‘thing’ so I guess it’s right, but that’s not what most success gurus are talking about. They’re telling us that by shaping a thought we can manifest that object into the real world and truly make the thought a thing.

Certainly, true of many things. We have ideas and, once we take action on them they ‘manifest’ in the sense that we build or create them either with our own hands or in factories.

BUT…

Not always.

In fact, not even often.

We have thousands of thoughts a day but they don’t all turn into something in the way that Law of Attraction supporters tell us they will.

Why?

Because, what you think about is only a tiny, tiny portion of attraction.

Thoughts DON’T become things.

Thoughts, if thought often enough and with enough intensity, tend to become feelings… NOT things.

Feelings, if felt often enough and with enough intensity, tend to become emotions… NOT things.

Emotions, if felt often enough and with enough intensity, tend to drive us to take action. (E- Motion!)

And action, no matter how small, if taken consistently, allows you to BE, DO and HAVE…. Things!

It’s no surprise that the law of attraction contains the word ACTION. Nor is it a surprising that the word satisfaction contains the word ACTION either (In fact, satisfaction literally means ‘enough action’)

The real power behind the ’secret’ law of attraction is simply getting yourself to think the thoughts and feel the feelings that make you want to take action. You do this by following your dreams and pursuing the goals that you REALLY want to happen rather than those that others tell you are realistic.

In other words, you get them by getting your butt up off the couch and DOING SOMETHING about them rather than thinking about them. Not what most people want to hear, I know, but true nonetheless.

Test it out for yourself.

Try putting some action into your attraction strategy and see how much more successful you are.

You’ll be amazed!
