The Law of Attraction and Why It Doesn't Deliver

It sounds so easy: Ask, expect, and receive.

Some people swear that the Law of Attraction works. Others try the Law of Attraction and have nothing but apparent failure. Without anything happening, they can't help but wonder if 'the Law of Attraction' is a bunch of nonsense.

There are explanations why the Law of Attraction fails for some.

Results May Not Be As Instantaneous as Expected

One explanation why the Law of Attraction may seem to fail is that you might be expecting the Law of Attraction to fulfill your wish list immediately. You have to realize that you are simply sending out positive energy surrounding a subject. You must have faith that Law of Attraction will send it back to you in its time.

What you're requesting is most likely something good and that is sometimes desperately needed, like a nice chunk of cash to pay off some persistent creditors. You may find that you are nervously pacing the floor and asking exactly when it is going to happen. When you're riddled with impatience, it may mean that you do not really believe that anything is coming. You are just going through the motions and not willing to commit to anything.

The Universe May Have a Better Way

You might also be expecting the answer to your demands to arrive in a specific way. As an example, you might ask for a financial windfall. You are hoping that you'll win the lottery. This may be your idea of the Law of Attraction. However, if you are alert to the universe around you, you may come across another means of delivery. An idea might come to you that would create the money you desire. It might involve some effort, but the end result would be the same ... the finances you asked for. If your energy is positive, you will recognize the opportunity that has been revealed and pounce on it with gratitude. By the Law of Attraction, acting on an inspired idea can only multiply the good in your life.

Giving Up Too Early

Another error people make in using the Law of Attraction is to put too much emphasis on current reality as they see it. When they see things that seem to prove that the Law of Attraction is not working, they quit believing. They get frustrated and their thoughts turn negative. This negativity will bring more of the same.

The truth is that if people genuinely understand the Law of Attraction and the science behind it, external evidence will have little effect on them. This is because they will have total belief and trust that the Law of Attraction has been operating all along. For example, any negativity that may be occurring today is the result of earlier negative thinking, and this can be turned around with positive thinking.

Masters of the Law of Attraction know that their new positive, focused thoughts will undoubtedly come to fruition in the future.

Limiting Core Beliefs

The Law of Attraction may not work because of limiting beliefs and values that were learned in the past. Many have deeply ingrained feelings about things they consider to be too much to ask for or have.

Much of this may be because of values taught in the past. If, during your entire childhood, you were repeatedly told that rich people are disfavored by God, it creates a paradox when practicing the Law of Attraction to attract large sums of money. For example, you might intend to manifest wealth using the Law of Attraction but on a subconscious level, you are rejecting any abundance that may come your way because you don't want to be a bad person.

When these emotions come up, it changes the energy you are sending out. Experts in the Law of Attraction have developed ways to release such emotions. These techniques allow a person to be free of negative vibes that have come from childhood or past experiences and to use the Law of Attraction without subconscious limitations. 'Mind Movies' are a promising new tool that can be easily used to reprogram the subconscious mind (see http://www.achieve-your-destiny.com for details). People's experiences from Mind Movies have been outstanding.

You really can have what you want, if properly using the Law of Attraction. It can become easy to master once you change the way you feel and think about things. If you can come to clear the limiting thoughts or subconscious conflicts that may be stopping you, you can witness fantastic results through the Law of Attraction.
