What happens when the Secret doen’t work for you!
Do you remember that first spark of hope you felt when you watched The Secret? I remember the desire that filled my heart, knowing that – Yes, I can make my dreams come true – FINALLY! But did you soon see that hope dwindle into frustration? Did you (and be honest now) start muttering things like:
Well apparently you’re not alone. About 97% of people also can’t make the Law of Attraction work for them the first time round. Think about it, just like anything else, you have to practice before you see success. A child doesn’t learn to walk without falling over a couple of times, right?
But in practice, everything is easier said and done. When you’re frustrated, it’s hard to stay positive. And it’s harder to stay positive when the evidence all around you screams negativity like the unstable economy, or a senseless acts of violence.
And do you know what happens when you fail to stay positive? That’s right – you start attracting negative things in to your life.
So how can you make the Law of Attraction work for you? How do those who successfully implement the Law of Attraction do it with such confidence and finesse? Well, here’s three tips so you avoid feeling frustrated or tired of begging from the universe, because you know how to start manifesting.
1. Allow Yourself To Receive
Just like a lost child who asks a police officer, “Excuse me Sir, can you tell me how to get to the post office? Can you? Can you? Can you? Can you?” Well, if the child goes on and on asking, he won’t hear an answer, right?
Well, it’s the same thing with your mind. If the only thing your mind is doing is transmit, transmit, transmit, the universe — which is trying to respond — can’t give you a single thing because you’re not allowing yourself to receive!
So, have confidence in yourself and stop exhausting yourself by running around begging for riches, and then wondering why nobody is dropping a penny in your cup (Hint: It’s because you’re running away too fast, before they can even reach for their wallets).
Just think of your desires and leave it out there, go away, and trust that your cup will be filled when the time is right.
2. Be Patient With Yourself
Receiving takes time but people often give up a couple of steps before the finish line because they’ve decided that it’s not working and it’s never going to work. Worse still are those who use more and more energy because they think that with more resources, the results will come faster.
This is like expecting nine mothers to conceive and deliver a baby in 1 month. You also can’t bake cakes in half the time by doubling the temperature. You’ll burn the cakes! In simple terms: Everything in this world has a natural development time, and this fact will not change no matter what resources you throw at it. We have to be patient. We are governed by the laws of the universe, and we cannot change the natural development time. If you remember this, you will less likely work yourself up into frustration, or worse, push yourself into a downward spiral of negativity.
3. Support and Educate Yourself
Like the child who is learning how to walk, you need support. You also need guidance on how, and also role models to look up to.
Many people give up because they think that “The Secret” is the “be all and end all” solution. Well, it’s not. “The Secret” is just a small portion and has never been the whole answer. Coming to the conclusion that the Law of Attraction doesn’t work without looking at changing your habits is like coming to the conclusion that exercising is not an effective way to lose weight because all you did is run on the treadmill for 2 hours a day.
So seek and be hungry for new knowledge. While the Law of Attraction is not an overnight delivery service.
