Law of Attraction
So, what is all this Law of Attraction stuff about? The idea is that the thoughts, feelings and desires that you hold in your mind, create your external “waking” experience….talk about power of the mind….
…or at least your perception of reality…
…The law is in affect whether or not you are consciousness of it working…sorta of like gravity. You don’t need to be aware of gravity for it to affect you…
This is a story from my blog that I am dusting off. It has real life examples of just how powerful this LAW is. The “key” message that I LOVE is that in this system…the “HOW”…is not your job to figure out…
…you don’t need to figure out “HOW” to solve problems…just want and visualize the results and wait for the gifts to be attracted to you…YOU do have to ACT in order to receive the results…but you just have to look for signs not actively problem solve. It is truly amazing to see this work…and one of my favorite powers of the mind
I read “Manifest your Destiny” by Wayne Dyer…(which I didn’t know at the time, but is about the law of attraction without using the term). This is a great little book.
…This really “got me”. I started meditating and following the rules in the book and IT WORKED.
I was in charge of a network. I was not a sys admin, but more like small time IT manager, so I know enough to know what I don’t know (if you know what I mean). I didn’t have a sys admin. I had a network, but no one that knew how to make it work…
…or fix it if it broke. The backups hadn’t worked in six months and nobody could figure out how to make it work. In practical terms, I was dancing with disaster. I told my bosses without being to chicken-little-like…
…but they couldn’t help me because there “was no money” to hire a sys admin. It seemed that my only choice was to fire the person who was supposed to be the sys admin but didn’t have the skills…
…I didn’t want to do that because he did add a lot to the shop in other ways that I needed, so I didn’t want to lose him. So, I didn’t know how, but I knew I needed a sys admin…
…I did the meditation, where you think of the thing you need. You visualize it happening and everything working out great, then I visualized a gift-wrapped box that I would throw into a river and let it float away. Sounds like hooey I know…
…But guess what? I got a sys admin and here’s how…remember the law of attraction takes care of the “HOW” for you…in an amazing display of the powers of the mind…
We had been supporting another organization for years, because they were small time…like 8 users and five machines, no big deal. There was no official agreement to help them, but we did. Then their guy comes in and says…
…“we need you to build us a network and set it up in another building and support 14 computers and our network” So I said “Ok, then you need to fund another sys admin for me”…
…And he said “ok”. He didn’t even ask how much! It cost about $300k…and he complained that I didn’t spend enough (I’m not joking)…
…So the new sys admin comes in and fixes the network in the nick of time. The first full backup of the file server was done only three days before we had a total hardware failure on the main file server. We only lost a day worth of data and we looked like real pros (I know most places would fire me, but what can I say?).
The powers of the mind that I experienced during this time, changed my life for good…I started seeing the world through an entirely new lens.
EXAMPLE #2
- My new boss and I were at odds when we first started working together. Then I said to myself, “self! You are doing this to yourself!…stop it”. From then on, I thought only good things and gratitude toward my boss. The next quarter he nominated me for employee of the quarter (WOW!)
The next book I found was called “No Time for Karma” which is an awesome book that is very cool, funny and FREE. Check it out for more information about the law of attraction…and powers of the mind…
This all eventually lead to me seeing the DVDs “What the Bleep do we know” and “The Secret”…which really do a good job of explaining the Law of Attraction.
Don’t just take my word for it…check out Fun with Carol’s Law of Attraction Articles she talks about “The Secret” and many others…in a fresh and fun sytle.
Powers of the Mind – Models of Reality
When I first started learning about the law of attraction, my model of reality was what I call Objective Reality (from Steve Pavlina)…but when I shifted to a subjective reality model…things began to get real interesting…many new powers of the mind began to open to me.

Powers of the Mind: Think Positive!
Quick! DON’T think about a pink elephant wearing a purple tutu balanced on one foot on a hire wire holding an umbrella. OK, now how did you do? Did you succeed in NOT thinking about that silly elephant?
One of the powers of the mind is that everyone to some degree thinks using images…pictures…it’s the images, not the words that expand…
If your war cry is “NO WAR” the image is of WAR and that is what expands…
If your peace cry is “MORE PEACE!” then the image of peace is what expands….
Follow your Bliss
Joesph Campbell is quoted saying: “Follow your bliss” in order to find your life’s work…but what if my bliss is drinking beer and watching TV all day?!?
All the powers of the mind work more effectively when in a state of peaceful fullfillment.
Unity-Separation
Imagine that two brothers: Separation and Unity, had a conversation where they both answered questions or made comments about statements.
True Meaning of Life
I recently watched the movie “I like killing flies” which is about Shopsin’s in New York. Kenny Shopsin said something about “The Meaning of Life”, and I thought…”Gee, I think I know a little bit about The Meaning of Life, so I should write about it.
Powers of the Mind: LOA is Common Sense
The law of attraction is not some mystical mumbo jumbo (although sometimes it sounds like it is). The reason why it sounds like mumbo jumbo, is that when you figure it out, and see results in your life…it seems like “MAGIC”.
It’s not really magic…it is just common sense.

I have checked out this Law of Attraction site, and have found more content worth checking…from Susan Vittner’s site description: “I’ve compiled many Tools and Techniques and motivational quotes to help in your journey of living the life of your dreams. Manifest Financial Freedom, Health, Happiness and Joy. LOA Life Coach resources.”
Check it out and let me know what you manifest into your life!
LOST: Nature of Reality
I recently checked out the Lost Time Loop Theory website…and I must say, I am most impressed.
The theory uses the idea of time travel and time looping to explain most of the weird things that happen on the island…of course there are some holes in the theory, but that is most likely due to “poetic license” used by the producers of the show than a lack of diligence on the part of the author of the time loop theory.
As I watched the show, I noted things that jived with what I was thinking about the nature of reality…some of my thoughts match up…while others don’t…
