The Law of Attraction is one of the most current and popular self-help techniques. This ancient method was taught in classic self-help books like ‘Think and Grow Rich’ and ‘The Science of Getting Rich’. In this article, I will reveal the secret to using the law of attraction to attract success, which is also the first step.
There are 4 steps to apply the law of attraction:
- to believe that you will have what you want
- conceived that you already have what you want
- Act like you already have what you want
- To take action in your thoughts that seem right at the time
Looking at these 4 steps, you should see that this universal law requires more than just thinking to make your desires manifest. It involves steps 3 and 4 that require you to take action.
Many people have the mistaken belief that just thinking will achieve miracles in their lives. This is probably the reason why many people do not believe in this law of abundance.
Without action, you will never make progress in manifesting what you want. Even if the Universe hands you money on a silver platter, you must take action and put the money in your bank.
Taking action is important, but knowing what your wishes are is even more important.
What this means is knowing what success really means to you, personally.
For example, one of my friends is doing very well managing a team in the investment banking industry. He is very well paid and has great responsibilities.
However… he works from 9 am to 11 pm. He also works from 9 am to 1 pm on Saturdays. During the weekend, he just wants to rest, physically and mentally.
His family and friends hardly ever see him.
Many people wish they had his position and salary. But would you call yourself a success if you were him?
Another person I know survives on just enough to support himself. He lives alone, does not plan to get married and would never think of buying a house. He goes out with his friends almost every day and buys what he wants. The word ‘savings’ does not appear in his dictionary.
Would you consider yourself a success if you were him?
Let me reveal that they are both extremely happy with their lives. They wouldn’t live it any other way. Strange? Not quite.
Everyone’s idea of success is different. If you have not really thought about this, then it is very likely that for you money is the symbol of success.
It’s not until you have money that you realize it’s not what you want after all.
The secret to success using the law of attraction is to first clearly define how you want to live your life…every day.
When you are clear about what you want, then apply the law of attraction and take action to manifest your desires. You may be closer to success than you think. Beware of the saying ‘be careful because you may get what you wish for’.
