There is one very important thing you need to know about the mythical Law of Attraction and that is that it is not a myth. Perception is projection, we all have the ability to make choices to change our perception and therefore what we project. What you focus on in your thoughts matters as your subconscious will direct your conscious mind to get that which you think about. If you are convinced that you are going to fail at something you most likely will, you need to focus on ensuring your actions contribute to positive outcomes. The Law of Attraction dictates that your thoughts, words and deeds will attract similar thoughts, words and deeds from those you have contact with, as the Bible states "as you sow, so shall you reap".

Once you understand The Law of Attraction you can make a conscious effort to radiate positive energy. You should analyze how you treat others and look inwardly to discover your true motivation. Apart from changing your thoughts you can start by smiling more and frowning less, a smile will actually improve your mood as well as that of others. If you find negative emotions re-entering your life then go back and examine your thoughts again, ask yourself questions like "Am I manifesting these emotions into my life with my thoughts?". Do not be discouraged when you find yourself slipping a little, it's OK, step back, reflect and refocus your thoughts.

The Law of Attraction fundamentally requires you to recognise your own self worth and have a positive self image. You'll need to be careful about your thoughts as well as your actions as what you believe about yourself will attract like minded individuals. Spend time in quiet reflection or meditation to enhance the peaceful vibrations you send out. Be at one with the lifeforce of the universe (God or whatever your belief is) for this is the source of real love. Tap into the power of incantations, say your positive self beliefs out lound with emotion, use present tense as if you already possess the qualities you desire. Do not allow yourself to think negative thoughts, you'll get what you focus on. Ensure that any decisions you make have a self honoring outcome. Keep thinking about the energy you're projecting, if it's not the sort of energy you want back then you'd better change it. There are other laws that work in conjunction with The Law of Attraction, The Law of Pure Desire, The Law of Paradoxical Intent and The Law of Harmony.

The Law of Pure Desire requires belief and surrender. Be motivated by love and chase your desires passionately. Incant what you're hoping for and let your subconscious drive your beliefs. Do not self sabotage by believing yourself unworthy. Visualise your future often and with feeling. Trust that the outcome you desire will come, totally surrender any attachment to it. Be prepared for answers that are not quite what you anticipated but nevertheless achieve the result you were looking for.

The Law of Paradoxical Intent above all requires trust, letting go and knowing that happiness will come to you. Be very clear about your intent and do not allow yourself to be distracted. Be calm and relaxed, desperation will not achieve what you want. Your happiness must be measured internally, not by external factors. Be thankful for what you have and do not concern yourself with what you have not. You cannot control the future, revel in the present and enjoy the journey or fear may get in your way.

The Law of Harmony is about not judging people. Create loving relationships with everyone and everything you come into contact with, the universe will pay you back in kind. All things in moderation, try and be balanced as to how you spend your time, honor yourself as well as others. Life is not a competition do not live as if it is. Be on the lookout for opportunities to be compassionate, one day you may need it yourself. Be motivated by love to serve, guilt has no place in attracting light. Seek unity with your fellow human beings.

Will you choose to focus on beauty, peace, happiness, and love, or to dwell on the faults of others or the world? It's up to you. Remember your subconscious mind does not know the difference between your imaginings and reality so your focus can become your destiny. Let your true desire guide your thoughts, let your thoughts guide your words and actions, The Law of Attraction will take care of the rest.
