The Law Of Attraction And A Passion For Success

By Tony Grant

Almost all of us that nurture a passion for success will face days when it seems as though the whole world is falling in around us. No matter how we try, Success always seems to remain just outside of our grasp and difficulties appear impossible to overcome. However, if we ascribe to the Law of Attraction, it becomes clear that any negativity will only emphasise our despair and avert our attentions from our Passion for Success. Therefore it is clearly necessary that you start to nurture a positive mindset to help overcome problems on days where life seems firmly stacked against you.

The fundamental principles of the law of Attraction demonstrates that we are what we create through our own thought. Allowing negative thoughts to control our lives will only serve to attract more of the same towards us. An example might be when thinking about debt and worrying about not being able to meet payments will only serve to focus our thoughts upon debt and therefore attract more of the same into our life.

When first attempting to implement positive thinking in order to attract positive outcomes, it seemed almost impossible to accomplish. After all, when looking at a credit card bill, how can anyone think of the potential for further spending rather than the bottom line debt repayment. It is totally outside of rational logic to focus upon the ability to spend rather than the ability to repay. This in a way demonstrates the difficulties in maintaining a positive mindset and how it could potentially involve weeks if not months of practice. It became clear that a strategy was needed to eradicate negative influences from around us.

For my part, I actually turned off the news. After listening for many years to detailed discussions about world events, I was suddenly awoken to the reality of this constant barrage of bad news when a friend commented that this was creating a sense of negativity in my thoughts. Although the comment was offered as an aside, the truth hit home and I was aware of the negative impact of my actions. Of course, my first concern was that I might not be sufficiently or socially aware without this topical information but very soon I discovered that life was not actually affected by this theoretical void. I now discovered that I could select my listening more carefully and chose to enhance my knowledge and understanding through personal development programs. Of course, I would never suggest that starvation or global warming are not important but maybe I would be more able to address these issues from a position of positivity and strength rather than being corrupted by media negativity.

A second step along the road to positivity was during my casual encounters with strangers during my daily commute to work. I noticed that if I just put my iPod on and closed myself off from outside contact, I faced a lonely journey and if information about train times or whatever was required, this was not so easy to attain. However, if I embarked upon my journey with a smile and a welcome to fellow travellers, suddenly people were almost queuing up to be helpful. This is a snapshot of the concept that positive action brings positive results.

Even though I had now proven the theory to be correct, I now faced the task of managing my internal thought patterns. This proved to be far more difficult than controlling external influences, after all, we cannot just turn off our thoughts and listen to something else. We have travelled through life developing our mindset and to suddenly try to change this is no minor undertaking. But how much do we actually know of our own mind and perhaps only truly know our superficial self, having no real reason to tap into our innermost beliefs to understand our motivations and controlling beliefs.

The most effective method that I found to reinforce this new positivity upon my subconscious mind was to immerse myself into audio personal development presentations and about the law of attraction. without going into too much depth here, a really good starting point for this learning about the Law of Attraction is The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. Listen a few times over and with each time, more and more will fall into place and your own strategy could easily develop from here. As you read or listen to The Secret and the concept starts to make sense to you, why not reinforce this with a positive communication perhaps during your commute to work or even in the supermarket, after all, checkout staff have feelings too! As you start to explore this approach, keep your outlook positive because whatever comes into your life is as a result of the thoughts that you are creating at every waking moment. Now, over these coming weeks, let's practice to replace negative thought with positive messages. Don't worry if this takes a long time to achieve or if the results fail to appear immediately, if you are like me, it is a long journey but do keep in mind that no matter what is going on around you, there is always scope for improvement.

You will need to put effort into this way of thinking but the consequences of your new behaviour could soon lead to a better way of living, after all...

Your future deserves!
