The secret of the law of attraction is to feel good
The “secret” to mastering the Law of Attraction is to feel good. This may not seem like much of a secret. In fact, it’s so simple and straightforward that it can easily go unnoticed. It would be easier, in a way, if the secret was to memorize a long and difficult chant or mantra in an exotic foreign language while sitting in a special position with hands clasped in exactly the right position. This might initially be more difficult, but would be more in line with the way our minds normally work: mastering a difficult task and getting a result when you’ve completed it. Feeling good sounds simpler, but it can be hard to master.
The other problem people have in feeling good about mastering the Law of Attraction is that it’s a bit of a Catch-22. In other words, you are probably interested in the Law of Attraction in the first place so that you can improve your life, so that you feel better. If you have to feel better first, how can you even start? It’s a bit like saying, “The secret to having enough to eat is finding a lot of food.” To overcome this catch-22 dilemma, we have to take a closer look at it.
Most people, in fact, do not want to master the Law of Attraction to feel better. Well, ultimately that’s what they want, but on a conscious level they think they want more money, an attractive lover, a better job, or a new car. They focus on the physical manifestations rather than the feeling that they think they will get from these things. This is one of the main obstacles in the process. Once we consciously understand that our true goal is to feel good or be happy, then we will be that much closer to mastering this “secret” of the Law of Attraction.
While we can use the Law of Attraction to dramatically improve any aspect of our lives, we can’t always directly impact physical reality. I mean, we can’t just snap our fingers and have a million dollars appear on the table in front of us. However, we can, with a little attention, put ourselves in a state of abundance. In other words, we can open ourselves up to receiving a million dollars, or whatever we want. However, by trying too hard to manifest a specific physical event, object or person, we subtly but importantly misunderstand how the universe works and often slow down the process unnecessarily.
When we consciously set our intention to feel good, or at least feel better than we do now, we are headed in the right direction. If, for example, you find yourself depressed due to lack of money, there are several ways to react.
1) “I never have enough money.”
2) “Why do I never have enough money?”
3) “I don’t have enough money right now.”
4) “How can I attract more money?”
5) “How can I feel more abundant than I feel right now?”
6) “I gradually feel more and more abundant and magnetic about money and other good things.”
In the above, the numbers 1 and 2 are not going to help you at all. They will only perpetuate your feeling of lack. Number 3 is not very good, but it is moving in the right direction. Numbers 4, 5 and 6 are all helpful and point you towards a state of greater abundance.
Another thing you can see from this is that changing statements into questions can be helpful, as long as they are positive questions! Never ask, for example, “Why do I never have enough money?” There is no good answer to a negative question. When you ask a question, your subconscious automatically starts looking for an answer. So if you ask a question about why you’re missing something, like in #. #2 above, there really isn’t a good answer. Whatever answer comes up, no matter how valid it is, you are still in the same state. On the other hand, if you ask a positive question, as in n. #4 above, you’ll start generating helpful responses.
By focusing on how you feel and the words you say to yourself and others, you can begin to move in a more positive direction. This is how you begin to master the secret of using the Law of Attraction to feel better, so you can feel even better.
