To use the Law of Attraction, not only do you have to be aware of your predominant thoughts; but you must also build the ability to filter out the unsupportive ones through a shift of mental focus.

As a human being you are blessed with the ability to use your will. And it is your will that allows you to decide what thoughts you give attention.

The following is a Q&A session where I share with you the critical role that your will plays in attracting your desires.




What is the purpose of the will?

First I think it is important to define what is meant by will. In this context, the will is your ability to focus on a particular thought or task regardless of what is going on around you or within you.

Its role in the Law of Attraction is to help you keep your thoughts and actions targeted and consistent.

Why is that important?

It's important because, we are constantly being bombarded by external influences. A large majority of these influences are negative.

When your thoughts and behavior are impacted by negative influences. The signal you send out to the universe changes and derails your efforts to receive what is coming to you from the universe.

That is when your will comes in. To get you back on track to attracting and receiving what it is you want.

What are we suppose to focus our will on?

In your journey to attract what you want. You will become aware of the right things to think and do. You must then use your will to compel yourself to think those right things and do those right things.

It requires effort to keep your thoughts fixed on your desired end result. But the additional challenge is the ability to do that continuously, especially in bad situations and for prolonged periods of time. That effort requires enormous amounts of will.

Does using the will attract the things you want faster?

Instead of faster I think it would be better to say more efficiently. But yes through proper use of your will. You will be more efficient in attracting what you want.

By using your will to filter out negative and unwanted thoughts, your message to the universe will be clearer. By exercising your will continuously you provide the universe with a steady and consistent message.

Both of which allows the universe to answer your desires in a more effective manner.

What would you recommend to develop strong will?

I feel a good place to start would be to ask yourself if you have strong faith and purpose in what it is you want. Application of your will becomes more effective if you do.

I would also tell you to avoid people or materials with any negative and uncomplimentary comments towards your desire(s). Expose yourself to materials that are in harmony with your vision on a daily basis.

And ultimately, your faith in the law itself would be key. That you realize beyond a doubt, regardless of what is going on around you, which is seemingly bad, what you are thinking is being attracted towards you.

As a fan of The Secret you would have been introduced to the Law of Attraction. The universal law that dictates that you attract into your life the pre-dominant thoughts that you hold in your mind.

But you may not be aware there are other laws at work.

These laws work hand in hand with the Law of Attraction and each other to bring about what you want. The following is a description of these other laws and how to apply them in your life.




The Law of Perpetual Transmutation

Shares with us the creative process. That everything in the universe originates from source energy and that it is always moving into physical form.

Be aware that your thoughts or rather the thought images you hold in your mind are powerful. These images are what start and guide the creative process. To begin having the life you want, you must begin by choosing the right images that are aligned with your desires.

The Law of Relativity

When looking at this law you find that nothing is anything until you begin to compare it to something else. There is no big or small, fast or slow, anything and everything, simply just "IS".

To benefit from this law, you need to understand that someone else will always, either do something or have something better than you. You must develop a habit of relating your own situation to something worse. You will inevitably become more grateful and your situation will always look better.

The Law of Vibration

Is the basis for the Law of Attraction. Simply put, your thoughts emit a certain vibration. And as a result you attract situations and outcomes of similar vibration into your life.

Become aware of your thoughts. Use this awareness as a guide to determine what vibration you are sending out to the universe. So whenever you realize you have a bad thought, use your WILL to change it. Think of things that make you feel better and you will become better aligned with what you want.


The Law of Polarity

Declares that there is an equal and opposite thing for everything. There is no up without a down, no left without a right, no inside without an outside. If you were 5 blocks away from your apartment, it would also mean that your apartment was 5 blocks away from you.

So if something bad happened, there is something equally good about it. The situation is what you make of it. The obvious challenge is to view a bad situation from the opposite end. There is always a lesson to be learned from every situation, even a bad one, which can be used very positively. Learn to look for that lesson.

The Law of Rhythm

In short this law shares that life, as with nature, has cycles. You CANNOT feel good all the time. If you did, you wouldn't even realize it. Your low feelings are what allow you to enjoy the high feelings. It is this contrast that gives you the ability to feel desire for greater things in life.

So when you are on a downward cycle, realize that sooner or later you will move into the upward cycle. What is important is to not dwell on the "bad stuff". Choose positive thoughts and have faith.

The Law of Cause and Effect

Simply states that every cause has its effect; and that every effect, its cause. In other words a result cannot occur without a chain of events leading to it and in the same token the outcome of a chain of events will be a result.

You make use of this law by focusing on the CAUSE. By doing so the EFFECT will automatically take care of itself. For example if it is your desire to be healthy, you focus on the events that would lead you to being healthy e.g. Proper diet and exercise.

The Law of Gender

Decrees that your desires require a certain amount of time to elapse before it becomes real. When you have the image of your dream house in your mind. You have initiated the thought process for that house to manifest. The challenge and the habit you must form is patience.

Know that the universe is responding to your thoughts. Energy is always moving into physical form. But what you must also know is that it comes at the right time. You have to continue to put out a consistent and clear thought to the universe.

You have just learnt about The Law of Attraction. You are genuinely really excited because for the first time you see a solution for improving your life and getting what you want.

So you whole-heartedly throw yourself into it. You get yourself a vision board and start visualizing the stuff that you want. Then after a few days or weeks you start to wonder, “Hey wait a minute. Is this working? Where is my stuff? Why isn’t it here yet?”

If you have been experiencing thoughts like this, the following list is a collection of common issues that people fall into when they first begin to use The Law of Attraction.


1. You Are Not Profoundly And Consistently Grateful

Gratitude is perhaps the most important factor in using the Law of Attraction. It is the means of communicating your desires to the universe.

A suggestion I have to help you achieve profound and consistent gratitude is to start a DAILY gratitude journal. In the evenings, just think about your day and simply list down everything you were grateful for.

Reflect upon it, get into that feeling of gratitude and do it EVERYDAY. Your line of communication to the universe will improve.

2. You Are Not Clear On Exactly What You Want

Being unclear by saying “I want my life to be better” or “I want more money” doesn’t work. You must see what you want vividly in your mind.

So lets assume you want more money. Write down a note with A) The details of the “more money”, the exact amount, type of money, currency. B) The date when you want to receive the money. C) What value you are giving in return for that money. D) Put it in the present tense and have “I am so happy and grateful now that” before it.

Looking like – I am so happy and grateful now that I receive an additional US$1,500 of rental income per month, which was first received on the 1st of August 2007, for renting out my studio apartment on Chester Street.

3. You’re Using The Law With A “I Will Give It A Try” Attitude

It is important to understand why you are feeling this way. For the most part I think it is because people are fearful. That if it doesn’t work, you are able to rationalize why. Which in this case would be “Hey I didn’t really try, that’s why it didn’t work”.

Build up your faith by better understanding how the Law of Attraction works. You can also read testimonials of others using the law successfully. Better understanding will move you forward more confidently.
 
4. You Have Some Old Baggage

When you begin to use the law you will experience different degrees of mental friction. This is normal because it takes time to adopt new thought patterns.

Immerse yourself in materials on the law. Read books on the topic. Listen to relevant audio CDs. Watch DVDs about the Law of Attraction. Then start by attracting things that cause you less mental friction. Once you begin to habituate improved thought patterns and your confidence grows, attraction becomes easier.

5. You Want It So, So Bad

You don’t want to become so “INTO” getting the “Thing” that you want, that you become desperate and frustrated in the process. The attraction of what you want is supposed to be a wonderful and joyous experience.

Put your thoughts of what you want out there. Then remember to be calm and relaxed. Your state of mind should be similar to that of being in love. You can’t see it or touch it. But you can feel it and you know it’s there.

6. You Are Taking The Wrong Kind Of Action

The wrong kind of action is where you are forcing an action to move forward. By forcing it you are showing a lack of faith in the law. Don’t rush it. Whatever you want is coming to you always. And it will come at the right time for you.

The correct type of action will feel right to you. It is as if a “Light Bulb” went off and you just had that “Eureka” moment. It will feel quite natural and effortless. Follow your intuition towards the correct action required. 

7, 8, & 9. You Forgot To Be Grateful

Yup, gratitude is pretty important. And deserves 3 spots on the list as a reminder because it is common to be so caught up during the day to forget to be grateful sometimes.

One exercise you can do at any time is just focus on an item in your immediate surrounding. Say you are in your car and you focus on the traffic light. Mentally just list how grateful you are about it, “It keeps traffic in order, it helps keeps me safe”. Then jump to another item and do the same, say the road, “it helps me get to destinations, I get to where I want faster” etc.

This knock-on gratitude affect really lifts your spirits. And you will be surprised at what you will be grateful about.

10. You Are Not Enjoying The Journey

Whatever time it takes to attract what you want there will be a journey. It will hold good, great, bad and maybe even really bad times. But what is important overall is that you enjoy the journey.

It is easy enough to enjoy the good times. But how do you appreciate the bad times. First understand without the bad times you would not be able to recognize and/or appreciate the good times. So they are necessary.

Realize a bad thing can also lead you forward. Say to yourself “ok bad thing, what are you here to teach me?” Identify that lesson, learn from it and move on. When you do, you move forward as a stronger individual and most definitely a step closer to what you want. And that is something to be happy about.

I really looking forward to doing some travelling this year. One of the places I really want to go back to is Paris.

What struck me most about Paris was just the history of it all and of course the spectacular sights.

Here are just some of the photos that I took at the Eiffel Tower.

Like so many people of late, I was first introduced to the Law of Attraction by watching the movie The Secret.

Ever since I watched it back May 2006 my life has taken a phenomenal ride for the best. And I owe a very large part of my success to practicing what I have learnt from the movie.

As I practiced, I saw a difference in the way I felt everyday. I was more positive and definitely the happiest I had ever been.

It allowed me the courage to dream and leave my corporate job to pursue a new successful career in my own business.

I was looking for more and more material to read and study. I read books like Think and Grow Rich, The Science of Getting Rich and other books which has helped me understand things better. But I wanted to get more materials from The Secret.

Then one day it happened! I attracted an event into my life that was perfect. It was a program designed by my favorite teachers from The Secret (Bob Proctor & Jack Canfield). It was The Science of Getting Rich (SGR) Program.

It is designed to help people understand and effectively use the Law of Attraction. What is more amazing is that I am now in partnership with them to help share this program with everybody.
