Welcome to Bob Proctor
The Law of Attraction
Have you ever asked yourself "What is The Law of Attraction".
The big one is The Law Of Attraction. It's the cornerstone of everything. Plainly put the law is - "We attract into our experience that, and only that, which we think about - whether wanted or uninvited". This means that whatever we give our energy, attention or focus to,focus, energy and attention to will inevitably be attracted to us.
The consequence is the Law Of No Assertion - "Nothing and nobody can assert anything into our experience which is not a mate to our vibration". This means that nobody or nothing , (this includes “God”, tsunamis, strangers, star signs,fate, governments, friends, family etc. etc.) can induce us to experience something that does not resonate with what we are thinking.
An alternative way of stating this law (putting it in terms more closely aligned with the language of advanced physics) is the Law Of Alternate Realities - "We pick out which reality to step into by the things we give our energy, focus and attention ". This last version appeals to me - but pick whichever version suits you - they all mean the same thing - we create our own reality.
Now let's think a little more on that, "whether unwanted or wanted " piece from the Law Of Attraction above.
Everyone has an Emotional Scale . To simplify , we either feel good or we feel bad. If we're not feeling good, then what we're including in our thoughts is what we don't want. The Emotional Scale runs from Depression-Grief-Fear-Anger-Frustration-Annoyance-Boredom Where we're thinking about what we DON't want through to Ecstasy, Passion, Contentment, Interest, Excitement, Passion where we're thinking about what we DO want.
The Universe hears no negatives, is another way to put it. So if we are fearful that something might happen, we are attracting it. Nothing - nada - zilch - is more important than feeling good. Our "work" therefore is to get ourselves to the place where we focus on what we want - to move ourselves up the scale from:
Worry,Hope, Optimism, Confidence and then Certainty.
The more we can move >>> to the right hand end of the scale, the faster we can manifest what we really want .
So what we’re spending our time thinking about is all-important. And so is how we’re thinking about it. There is a resonant point of attraction, for every subject. Look around, if you desire to know where you are on any subject. What you're experiencing is where you're resonating.
For a minute, pick a topic on which you’d like some change in your life. For example – say money. Is your primary reaction “I don't have enough”? Every time something you'd like-to-have flashes into your awareness, is the like-to-have immediately drowned out by can’t-afford-it? Or do you get into a feeling of delicious anticipation?
So where does action - doing things - fit into all of this? What I call the BE-DO-HAVE™ principle must first be understood.
Action was all important in the world I was raised in. It didn’t matter whether I wanted to do it, or felt like doing it - I needed the self-control to do it anyway. With a combination of hard work and being lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time , maybe things would turn out OK. Well according to the Law Of Attraction, that’s all hooey. There's no such thing as "luck", and there are no "accidents". Our actions in themselves cannot get us what we want.
But - the Universe is a powerful orchestrator. It eternally responds to our thoughts and always has us in the right place at the right time. We have to reverse the process - to Be-Do-Have, to take advantage of this.
If we can see/feel/imagine ourselves where we want to BE, then we'll be inspired to DO the things that will allow us to HAVE all that we want (more on BE-DO-HAVE later).
So - if we look at the way successful people order their lives, we see that many directly acknowledge this Law Of Attraction. Others, Inherently take advantage of it as you begin to see the principles they live by. That is they clearly order their lives according to its principles. Also, there are legions of books on this subject - either directly acknowledging the Law Of Attraction, or giving principles and procedures that are in line with it. In summary, what they all say is - spend time visualizing what you want, and it will appear.
