The Law of Attraction: Intention Law of Attraction: by Jason
Li 2013 ©
As a sceptic... I originally thought the law of attraction
was a load of rubbish...
In fact, an outright scam...
A way to take money off desperate people...
But I now believe it has worked in some ways.
Do you believe? Read on to see my story.
The Secret
I first came across this about three years ago when people
and the media were raving about The Secret.
I thought, “Let’s be open minded and at least learn
something new, even if I don’t agree.”
So here’s what I learnt.
In summary, if you believe good things are happening in your
favour, soon your desires will be fulfilled, such as; you will be walking on a
nice beach on holiday and feel the warm sun and the sounds of the waves; the
universe will help you get there.
It’s based on vibrations.
So if you think negative things like: we don’t make many
sales on a Monday or no-one calls our number anymore – guess what – the universe
agrees and delivers your negative vibe... because it is what you want.
(That’s
right, time to gag that energy vampire in your office right now.)
“You get what you
wish for”
You get what you wish for has been a known saying throughout
time.
The law of attraction is mainly based on this philosophy,
and you have to control your mind to ensure you only get what you wish for.
And it has happened to me.
I used to complain that I lived in an economic zone where
jobs were low level unskilled and low
paid, so there were no decent graduate level jobs to apply for.
Maybe in a way I liked to prove this too.
Even though I desperately wanted a high paid graduate job,
my negative vibes fed me low paid office jobs.
The Law of Attraction
for more money
After managing and turning around a failing takeaway during
the day as a challenge as an Interim Manager, while co-creating a board game each
night and weekends, my attitude changed from looking for a low level job to looking
to be a business advisor as I believed I was more than qualified to do so.
And so, not too long after winning a contract from Marks and
Spencer to have 10,000 board games in over 200 stores in the UK, I got a job in
a government funded agency and got to use my specialist marketing strategy
skills.
I was unwittingly using the law of attraction.
I was focusing on what I want, mainly because I really
believed I could help people, not just because of my Master’s Degree
certificate, but because I proved it that I can both fine tune an existing
offer (takeaway) and create a new
product (board game) from scratch that beat many household brand name
competitors.
So the law of attraction process started when I was ready to
sacrifice in the short term an office career and go all practical in doing a
business turnaround by running a takeaway, and sacrifice my nights inventing a
new product.
“Money will come when
you’re ready for it”
Now all this is in vain if you can’t get rich fairly quick.
We all want to have lots of money and free time.
It never happened for me in the past, I’ll admit that.
Again, I desperately wanted the money and the option to do
what I want with my time.
Recently I heard a podcast and a very successful entrepreneur
said a few years back he was poor and desperate to be rich. He was maxing on
credit cards and working all hours, but his businesses were struggling.
And you know what... his mentor said:
“Money will come when you’re ready for it.”
He said he is ready for it. Of course he is; he’s desperate
for it. But substantial money never came.
But now, money comes to him all the time, and it makes
sense.
Law of attraction
gratitude
Part of the law of attraction is gratitude.
Gratitude when you have an opportunity, whether it ends in a
result you want.
So let’s say a prospect enquires. Even if they do not buy,
be grateful and thankful (say thank you in your mind) that you had a prospect enquire,
no matter what the outcome is.
This way you are telling the universe that you are thankful
for what has been give to you.
It’s like when a referral has come from your network. It may
not turn into an order. But you should thank them for the opportunity.
So if you think negative in a way such as: “I hate all these
time waster callers.” Well guess what, the universe takes that on board and the
prospects will start to reduce in numbers.
Now, at this point, for those new to this, it does all read
a bit hocus pocus. I don’t blame you because I was in the same mind set for
ages. So only you can decide to carry on reading this or re-read it again with
an open mind.
Law of attraction
leads to change
There are so many people who complain about unfortunate bad
luck or how they just missed out.
So here is how the law of attraction gets you to where you
want to be.
Remember above where I wrote that the law of attraction
requires you to focus on where you want to be, the ideal result, outcome and
feelings.
And also to show gratitude.
Well I have been focusing on the results of where I want to
be.
In order to get there, I cannot carry on doing the same
things I did yesterday, last week, last month or last year.
As you already know, doing the same thing leads to the same
results.
And so I have to let the universe know I am willing to
accept the changes to get to where I want to be.
It’s the only way my career and wealth can improve.
In order to take steps towards the results you desire, you
have to say to the universe you are grateful for the changes that are presented
to you.
If you don’t... then the universe believes you don’t want to
change, and therefore you don’t want to achieve the better results.
No changey, no better resultsy: end
up samey!
The law of attraction
