5 Steps To Applying Law Of Attraction - Step #5

"The gratitude of most men is but a secret desire of receiving greater benefits."
François, duc de La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)


One of the great benefits of the Law of Attraction is that you get more of what you show gratitude for. Whether you are grateful for the big things or small doesn't matter. What does matter is being grateful.

Each day we're given so many opportunities to be grateful. Our morning meal, the beautiful view on the way to work, a kiss from our children and spouse, a good friend, help from a co-worker. When was the last time you took a moment to appreciate all of the blessings in your life? Because when you show gratitude for these things you will attract more of the same.
These feelings of gratitude bring many positive emotions into your life. These positive emotions give you a more positive attitude. This positive attitude will continue to attract more positive experiences into your life.

Here are some Practical Steps to Practicing Gratitude
Start a gratitude journal. Write as many things down from you day as you can recall. What works for most people is to say "thank you" for everything they encounter each day, for example a sunrise/sunset, frost on the trees (especially when the sun is shining), food, shelter, warm homes and offices, clothing, colleagues, work/jobs.

Do a gratitude alphabet exercise. In your gratitude journal, write the letters from A - Z. As fast as you can, write down I am grateful for ????? starting with the letter A and going through the alphabet. For example: I am grateful for apples, I am grateful for bananas, I am grateful for carrots, and so on until you finish all the letters.

Practice an "Act of Kindness" everyday

Look for ways you can genuinely praise your partner, your child, your colleague, your employees, the person who serves you - waitress, mail carrier, paper delivery person, police officers.

Thank the Universe for sustaining your life by providing food, air, and water.

5 Steps To Applying Law Of Attraction - Step #4

When You Get An Idea, Take Action On It. The Universe Is Guiding You Toward Your Desire.
Without action, nothing happens.

From your affirming and envisioning will come ideas and inspirations. Act upon these when they occur.

Have you noticed that when you bought that blue Batwing 5000 sedan that hundreds of others had also bought the same sedan? Once you have brought something into your consciousness, you begin to focus on that thought, idea, or thing. From that focusing will come a flow of ideas and inspirations that are coming to you from the Universe. This is where action comes in. If these ideas pass the feel good test then I would strongly encourage you to take action upon them. You will get ideas that just don't seem right. When you get these ideas evaluate them, just because you might not feel comfortable acting upon them does not mean they will not get you closer to your desire.

This website was an idea that came to me. I am so excited about this information I've been studying and learning that I wanted to share it with others.

If for example your desire is to Cruise on the Rivers of Europe then find out who offers these cruises. Call them and get a brochure. Read your brochure often and carefully, select your cabin, decide on what excursions you will take along the way. Read about the cities you'll visit get to know their history and what you will shop for. Get excited about your upcoming cruise because you will have it. This will impress upon your subconscious mind that you are serious about your desire.

Newton's Third Law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This relates to the Law of Cause and Effect which is referred to in some cultures as Karma. I bring this up because it also applies here. When you take action the Law of Cause and Effect goes into action to get the effect you desire. Nothing happens by coincidence.
It is important to understand that just daydreaming about your desire will not bring it to manifestation. You must act upon the ideas you get, that action will bring you ultimately to your desire.

5 Steps To Applying Law Of Attraction - Step #3

When You Envision Your Desire, You Bring It Into Reality In Your Mind And Then Into Your Life.

Have you ever been driving down the highway and begun to daydream? As you envision your destination, where you're staying, what you'll be doing, you realize you've driven the last 10 miles and don't remember it. Maybe you've been standing in the shower and all of a sudden you receive a solution to a problem that's plagued you for days. When you are performing a task that is so automatic that you are mentally disengaged from what you're doing you are probably experiencing the Theta Brainwave State. The brainwork that can take place during the Theta State is often free flowing and occurs without censorship or guilt. It is typically a very positive mental state.

The Theta Brainwave State occurs between 4Hz - 8Hz and is characterized by deep relaxation, meditation and vivid imagery. Theta is also the state at which communication with the subconscious mind is most insightful.

So why am I telling you this? What does this have to do with envisioning your desire? Everything!

You see if your conscious mind is in the way, telling you you're full of bologna when you repeat your affirmations, they're probably not going to have much effect. I wish it was different but... it isn't.

The Theta Brainwave State occurs naturally upon going to sleep at night and again when awakening in the morning. As you drift off to sleep you move from Beta to Alpha to Theta to Delta and when you awaken you go through the same sequence in reverse. This is a natural time to repeat your affirmations because they will be most effective.

If you practice meditation (if you don't you should) repeating your affirmation while meditating will also be a most effective time.

As I stated earlier, you must be in a state where you're communicating directly with the subconscious.

For those of you that want to speed things along, there are audio programs that you listen to with headphones called binaural beat recordings that will move you from Beta Brainwave to Alpha to Theta. These recordings can also contain subliminal recording of your affirmations so you can sit and relax and do work in months that might take years without the recordings.
While repeating your affirmations you must also envision what your life will be like when you have achieved your desire. This also is much easier in the Theta Brainwave state as you can more easily achieve vivid imagery in this state. Literally try to visualize yourself doing the things you desire, having the things you desire, and living the life you desire.

Until you have reprogrammed your mind to believe that you can have your desire through envisioning it in Theta, it will remain only a dream. And this is where that reprogramming happens.

5 Steps To Applying Law Of Attraction - Step #2

Ask For What You Desire

But who do you ask and how do you ask? Well, who is the Universe, God, The First Cause and how is the easy part. Everything you have achieved so far in your life - whether good or bad, is a result of asking for it. I know that's really hard to accept but it's true. How often have you worried about something like - boy, I sure hope I don't get a flat tire on my way to my interview this morning or whether it will rain for Saturdays picnic. And then, guess what happens - the things you were focusing on not having happen, happen. It happens to people all the time. We attract what we think about and focus on. I know if you will think about things that have happened in your life, you will remember giving those things attention before they happened. Again, both good and bad.
Ok, so how do you focus your attention on what you desire? Affirmations! An affirmation is defined as - Something declared to be true; a positive statement or judgment. Well, there you go. But how do I use affirmations to get what I want? Let's first discuss how to construct a powerful affirmation.
1) They need to be stated in the present tense.
I have a beautiful new BMW is more powerful than I will have a beautiful new BMW. Will indicates future and you will always be in a state of waiting for it to happen.
2) They need to be stated in positive terms.
I'm no longer broke won't cut it. I have an unlimited income stream, that's powerful!
3) They need to be short and specific.
The subconscious mind as powerful as it is, cannot understand long statements. It is more easily influenced by short, positively worded specific statements.
Now that you've constructed a powerful positive affirmation, here's how to make it part of you.
1) Repetition
The best times of the day to repeat your affirmation are in the morning when you awaken before you get out of bed and as you are lying in bed at night just before you go to sleep. Additionally, put it up on your bathroom mirror, in your car on the visor, and in your office. The more you see it the more quickly it will manifest your desires.
2) Emotions
Have fun, imagine you're an actor reciting your lines, and repeat it with emotion as though you have achieved what you desire. I AM FINANCIALLY INDEPENDENT, wow that felt good!
3) Belief
Here's the tough one. When you're not there yet it's tough to believe it. So, here is what you do. Feel what it will be like when achieving your desire. I mean really get into it. Imagine what it will be like. Live it right now in your mind. Go the places you'll go, see the things you'll see. Make your vision so real that your subconscious mind will know that you are already in possession of your desire.
Your subconscious mind is about 90% of your total minds power. Your conscious mind that you use in your daily life is only 10%. Your subconscious mind will accept anything you submit to it without question and will begin to manifest your desires into your life where you can experience them fully.

What You Should Know About Using Affirmations Correctly

5 Steps To Applying Law Of Attraction - Step #1

If it is your goal to attract your burning desire into your life then you must be perfectly clear on what it is you desire. Perhaps it would be helpful if I redefine what is meant by “burning desire”. The clearest definition I’ve heard is “your true vision for your life”.
The Law of Attraction is the reason for everything that is occurring, has occurred, and will occur in our lives. If you’re living a life that is not what you’d like it to be it’s because of your thoughts. Do you really at a core level believe in yourself and your right to live the life of your dreams? If you’re not currently living that life the answer is no.

Have you ever met a person who is living the life of their dreams? It may have been a server in a restaurant, perhaps a tour guide, or an accountant – you will know immediately when you meet them because they radiate joy, they’re an absolute pleasure to be around. Do you see the answer here? They’re living their “true vision for their life”. They are in vibrational resonance with what they are attracting. What they are putting out is what they are getting in return. Why would anyone not choose to live their life like this?

In 1989 Marsha Sinetar wrote a book entitled “Do What You Love, the Money Will Follow – Discovering Your Right Livelihood” which I definitely recommend to you, can it possibly be that easy? ABSOLUTELY!!!

Once you are living your true vision for your life it’s like floating on a raft downstream. You will attract from the Universe all you need effortlessly. Your positive emotions are the key ingredient in this recipe for life. If you will listen to your heart and focus on how you are feeling emotionally you will be allowing the Law of Attraction to do its thing. If you find yourself in a situation where you’re experiencing anxiety, anger, or stress you are not supposed to be doing it – stop! Are there times when we need to do something we don’t want to do? Of course but that is not what I’m talking about here I’m asking you to focus on identifying your “true vision for your life” it may not come to you in an instant but I promise you if you make the effort, it will become apparent to you.


If You Don't Know What You Desire, You're Certain to End Up With It.
How to Achieve Anything Your Heart Desires

This may sound easier said than done. How do I determine what I am passionate about and what my true vision for my life is? Well first of all you really do know but you’ve probably suppressed it. When you’re sitting alone daydreaming, what do you daydream about? What is it you see yourself doing? What do you do in your spare time? What are you doing when time just seems to fly by? Keep a journal and record these ideas and thoughts.

Do not pay any attention to thoughts that tell you you’re being impractical. Don't listen to "helpful" friends and family who tell you “you can’t do that”. Not only can you do it, it’s exactly what the Universe is telling you you’re supposed to be doing.

I am not recommending you quit your job and go on a spiritual journey; though many have and are living the life of their dreams. When you discover your desires, your passion, your true vision begin to take action and move toward it and never look back.

A Secret Scrolls Message from Rhonda Byrne - Creator Of The Secret



"How do I stop my negative thoughts?" - is a question that I have been asked many times. If you have ever asked this question then you will feel such enormous relief in knowing the answer, because it is so simple. How do you stop negative thoughts? You plant good thoughts!
When you try to stop negative thoughts, you are focusing on what you don't want - negative thoughts - and you will attract an abundance of them. They can never disappear if you are focused on them. The "stop" part is irrelevant - the negative thoughts are your focus. It doesn't matter if you are trying to stop negative thoughts or control them or push them away, the result is the same. Your focus is on negative thoughts, and by the law of attraction you are inviting more of them to you.

The truth is always simple and it is always easy. To stop negative thoughts, just plant good thoughts! Deliberately plant good thoughts! You plant good thoughts by making it a daily practice to appreciate all the things in your day. Appreciate your health, your car, your home, your family, your job, your friends, your surroundings, your meals, your pets, and the magnificent beauty of the day. Compliment, praise, and give thanks to all things. Every time you say "Thank you" it is a good thought! As you plant more and more good thoughts, the negative thoughts will be wiped out. Why? Because your focus is on good thoughts, and what you focus on you attract.

So don't give any attention to negative thoughts. Don't worry about them. If any come, make light of them, shrug them off, and let them be your reminder to deliberately think more good thoughts now.

The more good thoughts you can plant in a day, the faster your life will be utterly transformed into all good. If you spend only one day speaking of good things and saying "Thank you" at every single opportunity, you will not believe your tomorrow. Deliberately thinking good thoughts is exactly like planting seeds. As you think good thoughts you are planting good seeds inside you, and the Universe will transform those seeds into a garden of paradise. How will the garden of paradise appear? As your life!

May the joy be with you,
