A positive magnet

A few weeks ago, I reached out in my library for a book that I bought ages ago and had not managed to get past page two. I could post it as a book blog but instead I have chosen to blog on this page because I want to speak more about what this book has revealed in my life.

There is no mystery for me about the fact that when the student is ready, the teacher appears. And this book is an illustration of that principle. It had been sitting on my shelves for years and suddenly I was ready to take it in. The law of attraction is talked about by many people in the “new age” field and perhaps that’s the reason why I had discarded the book in the first place. It is written in a style that can be off putting. The author says she channels a group of wiser entities that are collectively called Abraham. I don’t know about you but for me, initially, that set alarm bells ringing very loud. It nearly put me off the book. However, I have watched a series of little video clips of her channeling sessions on you tube and I was so impressed with the quality of the message but more importantly of how in tune they were with my deepest beliefs that I decided it was time to revisit the book.

And so I embarked on a treatise of how the law of attraction works. It is extra simple. First you ask, second the Universe responds (to your request), third, you allow the Universe to deliver the gift you asked for. The first step is seemingly obvious and easy. But what we mortals usually misunderstand is that the law of attraction will bring to us everything we think of often enough. And this means that if we keep on worrying, we bring onto us the very thing we worry about. I have a first hand experience of this from years ago. From the day I dated my ex-husband, I was worried about him being unfaithful. I had seen so many stories of betrayal both in my family circle but in literature, films, etc, that this was a very deeply engrained fear. And guess what, I did such a good job of worrying about it… that it happened. Not as I expected it because I was the culprit, and believe that took me by complete surprise. But that’s another story all together. Just to say,  the law of attraction works…

Don’t let that make you panic about every thought you have, it’s only the thoughts you think about often enough. And contrary to popular belief, you can control your habitual thoughts. When one pops up in your head, cancel it or decide not to give it too much mileage. If you constantly think about not being late for an appointment, guess what: you increase the chances of being late. Here is how I make it work for me: if I am a bit on the late side of things to get to an appointment, I ask the Universe to rearrange things so that I get there in time, not on time. What happens next is that either (i) I take less time to get to destination than I thought I would, or (ii) the person I have an appointment with is late or (iii) if I need some extra time, the person actually cancels the appointment and I am left with some lovely time to play with.

If you are not convinced and just want to try first with something small like a space to park… try that. Something small can be good to build your attraction muscles.

Step 2: the Universe delivers to you what you have asked for. You can’t control the timing but the better you get at this “game” the quicker it happens and the more miraculous the result. That is, of course, if you have asked for what you want in step 1. Otherwise, you might just think you are cursed.

Step 3: you have to allow the Universe to deliver to you what it is that you have asked for. This is harder than most people think and that’s where usually things go wrong. Most of us, particularly myself, are so pro-active, so driven and so used to working hard to get what they want, that they ask but just to make sure they also start taking steps in all directions and try to MAKE things happen. You have to have faith behind your request, otherwise it doesn’t work. So ask, and forget you have asked, and expect it to turn up. There is one small caveat, however, you can only ask for yourself. No messing about with other people’s lives. They have to make their own orders. Why? because they need the passion and belief behind their request and if you do it for them… well it isn’t there, really, is it? The other little caveat is that you have to understand that it is OK to ask and that you are not going to take anything away from someone who needs it more than you. The Universe is ever expanding. Think about it, you don’t refrain from ordering a computer on the pretense that someone else might need it more than you. Well, with your orders from the Universe, it is the same. Don’t be silly.

I hope this little blog has inspired you to become a positive magnet. What are you waiting for to start a brand new fresh wish list?

With love and light
