There has been a lot of buzz the past couple of years about the law of attraction. A lot of books have been published about this particular topic and even Oprah gave her seal of approval. However, for those who need a primer to get your feet wet, you've come to the right place.What exactly is the law of attraction? Simply put, it is whatever you put out to the universe you'll get back. Is it that simple you may ask? The correct answer is yes. Let's take a moment and think about it.
Does the law of attraction work in this way? I don't think so: whatever is in the envelope is in the envelope. It's your attitude to what the envelope contains that makes the difference. A negative person will focus on the fact they cannot afford to pay the bill; a positive person will focus on ways to pay the bill. They will decide what action they can take to get the money to pay the bill. This will attract positive, constructive thoughts that will eventually lead to a solution. That is the way law of attraction works.
Does the law of attraction mean the Universe will shower us with any amount of good things if we expect it to? Maybe, but I believe it is our attitude that helps us see the opportunities because we are looking for them. The same thing can happen to different people, such as receiving an envelope in the mail: one person will see it as a bad thing and may be frightened to open it while another will be eager see the contents as it may contain another opportunity.
It was time to go for my lectures. I was in my third year at university. I often sat with a few of my good friends in the lecture theatre. My friends were chatting excitedly when I got there. One of them had just started going out with a guy from the Economics faculty. Two others had boyfriends too. One of them asked me, "What about you Dina, have you met anybody yet?" "I don't think I will find my guy here on campus.
I am looking for a Caucasian guy, remember?" All of them had a good laugh. "You are strange, aren't you? What do you see in white skin?" asked my friend Anne. "White guys are very demonstrative in love unlike some of these Asian guys", I replied. "Are you saying that the rest of us are going to settle for guys who lack in that aspect? You are surely putting these white blokes on a pedestal, aren't you?" said Jane. Fortunately at that point, the lecturer walked in. It saved us from another argument.
The first thing I want you to do is create an image of you receiving the amount of money you would like. As you are creating this picture in your mind, really feel it. You are this person receiving this money, so what does it feel like? Are you laughing, smiling, crying, jumping up and down, does it give you shivers up and down your spine? YOU JUST RECEIVED MONEY HOW HAPPY ARE YOU?? I am serious about this. I want you feel this doin your whole being. This is where acting as if comes in. Once you have your mental picture, in as much detail as possible, act as if.
I got off the train and walked towards the car park. As usual, my husband was waiting in the car for me. I smiled at him as I walked towards the car. He leaned towards me and kissed me. "You look tired", I said. "No, I am OK", he said. There was a big walnut and banana muffin in a little parcel on the back seat. When we got back home and I turned on the jug. We sat down on the couch and had our tea with the banana and walnut muffin. "You know, Jason, I can't believe we are doing this", I said. "Doing what?" he asked. "We having muffin and tea together. This is something I had seen in my daydreams for almost 21 years. It has really come true now." For years, I visualised being with a Caucasian man and it has become a reality now.I met Jason when I was thirty six and we got married two years later. We are parents to a beautiful baby girl now.
