The Law of Attraction
When it comes to making a positive life change, the tasks necessary to start achieving your goal can seem daunting. They are like big obstacles standing right in the middle of your road to fulfillment and happiness and you don’t how to even begin getting around them. Don’t despair! You can start small in regards to positive change and still end big. It takes just one step in the right direction to gather enough steam to turn goals into reality. This also attracts other people important to making a successful transition – the law of attraction at work for you, not against you.
Positive versus Negative Energy
Energy of any kind is a very powerful force. It takes energy to move our bodies just as it takes energy to power up your computer. Emotional energy is no less powerful than an electrical outlet or physical energy; it just works in a different way – it attracts or repels other people and what they can provide for us.
Now consider the words and thoughts that constitute negative energy: no, not, can’t, won’t, don’t. If you tell yourself things like, “I simply can’t stand another day at this dead end job” or “I won’t be happy until I find a boyfriend”, you are putting out negative energy. Not only does this repel the things you do want, it is a wasteful use of the power inside your Self.
Turn those thoughts around into positive affirmations and action statements and you’ll begin creating the reality that you want. A statement such as, “I intend to find a new and exciting job that allows me to use my skills” will focus your thoughts and actions on what it takes to create that job. A statement such as “I intend to be the kind of loving person that I enjoy having in my life” will turn you into a magnet, not only for a wonderful man, but for many kinds of wonderful friendships too. That positive energy will come back to you, bringing with it the right people at the right time.
Doing versus Thinking
Of course it not merely as simple as thinking positive thoughts and achieving every one of our life’s goals. Positive energy not turned into action is wasted; we have to use it as a the inspirational force to bring about positive change.
Think about it this way: what are the odds of someone appearing out of the blue to offer you a dream job? Do you think that if you sit at home every night some great man will just show up on your doorstep and want a relationship? Sure, it could happen, but unless you take action and start seeking what you want, the odds are against you. Your thoughts and intentions help you focus on the best specific actions out of all the options available to you, but you must still take that first step, however small, toward your goal in order to continue down the path toward achievement.
One thing to remember is that your actions need to be consistent with your thoughts. Positive thoughts plus positive actions will result in positive change. Do things for the right reasons and you are sure to find that what should happen does.
