The Law of Attraction is Always Working In Your Life

We have all heard, "What you put out, comes back," "What goes around, comes around," "Like attracts like." More importantly, we have all experienced this concept in one way or another.


This is the Law of Attraction. This is how Life works. And you can study the Law and use it deliberately to craft a life for yourself filled with peace, joy and happiness. You don't need any special equipment, secret passwords, or user's manual to utilize the Law of Attraction now. Everything that is required, is already inside you now. It's been there since the day you were born and it will be with you when you leave this world.


Your job, the primary purpose of your life, is to feel happy and peaceful ~ that is what it is like to experience God or whatever term for the Creator feels most comfortable to you. When you are happy and peaceful, and know Who You Really Are, every thing flows ~ there is no struggle, no anxiety, and well-being, peace and anticipation are your dominant emotions. Your job is to experience peace and happiness as much as you are able in each moment. The Law of Attraction shows you how to do that.


The Law of Attraction


1. Ask ~ Identify the desire (our job).


As we experience life, we encounter opportunities to identify our preferences in different areas of our life, like finances, health, relationships, work and home. Whether we are dealing with a bodily or health condition, life circumstances, the nature of interactions with others, or whatever situation comes our way ~ our reaction and our subsequent focus on the situation give rise to a feeling in the body, expressed through the heart. This sets up a vibration emitted through the heart, which acts as a transmission, if you will, conveying to the Creator that we desire an improved life experience. We experience life through alignment (we judge* the situation or circumstance to be happy, satisfying or uplifting) or through contrast (we judge* the situation or circumstance to be depressing, unhappy or unpleasant). We identify our reaction through our thoughts and words ("I love meeting new people!") and emotions (joy, happiness, excitement), and when we merge thoughts and emotions together through the heart to create a genuine heart-based feeling, through that feeling we are speaking the language of the Creator. The Creator, the Universe, the Field 'reads' the essence of our feelings ~ that is the language of Divine Intelligence, this is how we commune with Creation, this is a prayer. The feeling is the prayer.


*Esoterically speaking, there is no good or bad, "it is what it is," but each of us individually judges what is good and bad from our unique perspective. A topic for discussion for another day . . .


2. Answer ~ The answer is always "Yes!" (not our job). Always. No exceptions.


What we focus on ("Identify the desire"), we draw into our Life experience. The response is always "Yes!" Because we live in an inclusion-based Universe, whatever we are focusing on, and therefore identifying ~ through joyful anticipation or fearful worry or angry resentment ~ the Universe says, "Coming right up!" To the eternal Universe, there is no judgment of our choices ~ we have FREE WILL to choose through our focus, either on abundance (alignment / love / life-affirming) or lack (contrast / fear / life-denying). It says, "You are an eternal, Divine Being and if you desire poverty, isolation, powerlessness and chaos so that you can continue to learn and grow and expand your Consciousness, so be it! Enjoy, my beloved one." But the underlying discomfort that we feel when we experience worry, anger or resentment is there to let us know that we are currently identifying a life experience that is not congruent with our true identities as Divine Eternal Beings. That uncomfortable feeling in the pit of our stomach is our Higher Self, our Inner Being, making us aware and saying, "You are offering a thought, feeling and / or emotion that is not in harmony with Who You Really Are. Would you like to choose again?"


This is how life works, and once we are willing to at least consider this, if not embrace it, we can then begin to empower ourselves and re-member Who We Really Are.


So when you realize you are looking at something you do not want, turn it around to identify what it is you do want, focus on that, and get into the feeling experience** of having that condition, relationship or item in your life, and it will manifest into your physical experience.


**For this, we use our imagination, experiencing with our mind the desired circumstance as though it is already come to pass ~ we use our 5 physical senses to 'paint in virtual space' the multi-dimensional picture that we are wanting to experience now. Again, another topic for another day . . .


3. Allow ~ Allow that desire to manifest into Life experience (our job).


Once we have identified the desire, then it is our job to allow it to manifest. When we are in an open state ~ free from worry, resistance, concern or any other 'negative' emotion ~ we can receive all the beautiful things life has to offer freely ~ we are "in the flow." In an open state, we are much more likely to realize our desires, often very quickly. But what does that mean, "a truly open state?" Here is where the deep self-inquiry is valuable.


Understand that the reason that you want or desire something is because you believe you will feel better having it than you feel without it. When you comprehend that at the deepest level what you truly desire is the feeling that the "thing" brings you, and that you can create that feeling in your body with your thoughts and emotions any time you decide to ~ then you are free, and as a consequence, that which you desire can now come to you. And it will come quickly, because you have released your resistance.


Will you honor yourself with that gift?

What will you choose?

Did you know that each individual's unique perspective is significant? Yes, your life experience is vitally important and integral to the evolution of all human-kind ~ your experience adds to the collective!


We are intended here deliberately and purposefully by a Creative Force ~ there are many names so pick whatever feels most relatable to you. That Creative Force is pure love ~ pure positive emotion that wants us to thrive and expand and prosper. Each of us is a Divine spark of that Creative Force, focused consciously in a physical body. We are co-creators of this experience of Life, along with this Creative Force ~ we are participants. There is only one of us here, albeit walking around in many different bodies of differing size, shape and color. We have a choice to actively participate or passively experience.


We are not intended here, and we do not come here, to live up to an arbitrary set of conditions and expectations determined by seemingly all-powerful institutions ~ we are intended here, we choose to come here, to have our own experiences, discern our preferences, make our choices, and expand the ever-growing Creative Force that is Life. Few of us were taught this, but many are awakening to the truth that we can do, be and have anything that we want, and it is our job to discern our preferences, usually through the contrasting experiences we encounter.


The contrast that this Earth provides is ideal for that purpose. When you know what you don't want, you can identify what you do want more clearly. So, there are no mistakes or failures ~ only opportunities for awareness, growth and new choices.


As co-creators, our job is to participate in Life and, through that experience, discern our distinct individual preferences. Through the expression of the desire for those preferences ~ whether through thoughts, words or most importantly feelings, or any combination thereof ~ that Creative Force then receives the essence of that desire, that choice, and expands to become and to incorporate that desire into the Infinite realm of possibility. This Creative Force benefits from our experience!


This is The Law of Attraction. Welcome to the Game of Life!

Resistance: What Is It Really? Part I

One of the most challenging aspects of studying and implementing the Law of Attraction ~ for me as an individual and for my clients, Meetup participants, and SourceEnergyRadio.com listeners ~ is the aspect of resistance. As a new initiate into what turned out to be the most transformational Life Study path I had ever undertaken, I struggled with resistance from the very beginning (no pun intended). I asked myself, “If the Law of Attraction is about focusing on what I want to manifest in my life experience, why on earth would I resist what I want?” It was a concept that took some time to fully understand.

But I believe I’ve got it now.

An underlying tenet of the Law of Attraction avows that each of us is Source Energy (that creative force we call by different names according to our conditioning, such as God, Allah, The Great Spirit) focused in a physical body. That Source Energy part of me that is physically focused is still connected to its non-physically focused counterpart ~ and that nonphysical part of Source Energy that is me, is much, much larger and expansive than the “little” part that animates and enlivens my physical body.

Are you with me? If you are like me, you like analogies ~ it makes ideas easier to conceptualize and therefore integrate. So let’s use NASA to illustrate this relationship.

In this analogy, NASA represents the non-physically focused part of me ~ myriad pieces of equipment and resources and a broader, expanded perspective ~ and the space shuttle Endeavour represents the physically focused part of me ~ it contains all the technology needed to perform its mission, and has a more narrow perspective, to perform discrete tasks to complete this particular mission.

So, even when Endeavour has lifted off from Cape Canaveral and is circling the planet or navigating toward the Moon or Mir, NASA is still aware of and intimately involved in every aspect of the mission ~ Endeavour is still part of NASA. Endeavour is always connected to NASA, and NASA is always there to keep the mission on track, with its broader perspective and ultimate understanding of the mission’s goals.

Does that help?

So each of us is Source Energy, stretching its connection to that part of us that remains in the nonphysical, in order to perform its mission here in the physical world ~ to experience Itself in relationship to the Other. The best way to know one’s self is in relationship, and the same is true for Source.

From its broader, eternal perspective, all is always well. The main goal of Source is life and life experience.

Life is about experiencing life, its ups and downs, joys and disappointments, peaks and valleys. This experience is incredibly important and valuable because it is through experience that we become clear on our personal likes and dislikes. And that is why this environment that we call Earth, is so perfect for creating! It offers all manner of experiences ~ what we, in our limited, personality / ego perspective judge to be negative (undesirable) or positive (desirable) ~ so that we can discern our individual preferences.

If we were not able to discern difference, we could not express a preference, and it is through that expression of preference that we vibrationally summon Source. Vibration is the language of Source Energy. And if we couldn’t vibrationally summon Source, then life would cease. So you can see why the entire Universe is built on our ability to express preference and therefore summon new life.

Once we discern what we like, we express that preference through our thoughts, our feelings and our words ~ and the part of us that remains in the Non-Physical says (in effect) “Yes!” and becomes instantaneously aligned vibrationally with our preference ~ it becomes our preference. This all happens in the blink of an eye, in a split second. And in that split-second timing, that which is focused in the Physical and that which remains in the Non-Physical are one ~ vibrating in harmony, recognizing its True Nature as that Creative Force that can have, do and be anything it can conceive and desire!

Folks, this is what is referred to as the State of Allowing. In that split-second timing, we are Allowing our True Nature. We are Allowing the process to carry forth the way it was always intended.

And just as quickly, our personality / ego jumps in with all the reasons why our desire cannot be, will not be, should not be, could not possibly be. It offers up all the doubts, fears, obstacles, proof why we should just forget our dream, settle for what is more likely, face “reality” and compromise ~ and it summons forth all those people who will give voice to those sentiments. “You have to play the hand you’re dealt.” “We weren’t put here to be happy!” “Life is hard.” “Who do you think you are, Jesus Christ?” “Prepare for the worst but hope for the best.” “What makes you so special?”

This, my friends, is called the State of Resistance. When we are focused on those doubts, fears, obstacles, voices, it ~ our desire ~ seems utterly unattainable. Then we start adding to it. “I must be out of my mind, I can’t change / manifest this situation / condition / relationship. I have no idea how to do that! I just have to accept that this is the way it is. Maybe I can get out of this relationship / situation and start over. ‘They’ never understood me anyway. Nothing ever goes the way I want it. It’s too big / hard / complicated / important, and I’m just one person . . . .” The list goes on and on ~ and you can probably fill in your own inner dialogue as well.

You see, when you know Who You Truly Are ~ really, really know your true Divine Identity as an extension of the Most High ~ these doubts, fears, and obstacles evaporate. You begin to see your Self from a Higher Perspective, a Soul Perspective. The personality / ego perspective is limited by its nature. The Soul Perspective is much broader and always in alignment with Source Energy. The personality / ego perspective gives credence only to that which it can detect with the physical senses. It is shackled by conditioning, training and indoctrination ~ it seems the more worthwhile path to “go along and get along.”

This is Resistance ~ resisting Who You Truly Are ~ and it feels really uncomfortable. You get that feeling in the pit of your stomach, and you start to focus on how you feel and now your thoughts are involved. Your thoughts are now focused on why you feel bad, and you start casting around your environment with your thoughts to identify reasons why you feel bad, and then you start building from there, adding more reasons to feel bad, until pretty soon, you want to crawl into bed, pull the covers up over your head and shut out the world.

So resistance means resisting your true divine nature, and that negative feeling you have in your gut is the tension between what you are currently focusing on, and your true nature which is still in the Non-Physical which said “Yes!” in that instant that you expressed a desire.

That is resistance ~ so what do we do about it? There is hope! Stay tuned . . .
