The Basis of the Law of Attraction

The Law of Attraction states that every thought attracts things, people and circumstances. Negative attracts negative, positive, positive. If you constantly are putting yourself down, listening to others who put you down, questioning yourself, belittling yourself, saying that “these things” always “happen” to me or that you will never get out of a certain situation, well you know what? You are right, your thoughts, right at this very moment are dictating what you will or won’t attain in the near future.

There is evidence that suggests that we have known about the Law of Attraction for around 7000 years! That has to tell you something. Those who do, achieve! Anyone who has become anything, who has created wealth and good, positive things, people, situations in their lives have used the Law of Attraction. THAT is why they are who they are, and have gotten to the place they are at. NOT because they didn’t believe in themselves or doubted themselves or thought they couldn’t do something.  It is because they KNEW they COULD do it!

It was largely at the beginning of the 20th century that the general public started to become aware of this great law due to the diligence, fortitude, integrity and grace of writers such as James Allen (1864-1912), Napoleon Hill (1883-1970) and Charles Haanel (1866-1949). Wallace D. Wattles (1860 – 1911) was another pioneer of free thinking. In his great work “The Science of Getting Rich” Wattles states a great truth, “There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, which, in its original state, permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe. A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought.” How revolutionary that statement was in 1910.

Haanel set out in a 24 part correspondence course, which is now condensed into one volume called “The Master Key System“, a complete guide to successfully using the Law Of Attraction! It was banned by the Church in 1933 due to its revelations. This is allegedly the book Bill Gates read before he created Microsoft! Napoleon Hill revealed Andrew Carnegie’s great Secret to the world – that thoughts create things – when he wrote “Think & Grow Rich” in 1937 (although it had taken him 25 years to complete). James Allen wrote his famous work in 1912 and in “As a Man Thinketh” he tells people that “mind is the master-weaver, both of the inner garment of character and the outer garment of circumstance, and that, as they may have hitherto woven in ignorance and pain they may now weave in enlightenment and happiness.”

However, although the teachings have been around for thousands of years and they have been readily and easily available to the general public for almost a century the great majority of people do not take the time to learn the workings of probably the most powerful physical law in the Universe. I think you owe it to yourself to delve deeper into this mysterious Universe and learn as much as you can about the laws that govern your life. When you truly understand the Law Of Attraction and begin to work with it for you personal advantage, I promise you, your life will change in fantastic, unexpected and unlimited ways. Begin now to utilise this gift and construct in your imagination the life you really want to live. Seek out ways to remove your own inner resistance and limiting beliefs.
