Does Using the Word ˜Want" Contradict the Law of Attraction?

by Michael Losier

f you’re familiar with my work you’ll often hear me use the phrase “So, what do you want?” In my book and other articles, I often refer to wanting to attract something. In short I use the word ‘want’.

A number of people have been trained not to use the word ‘want.’ They have been told that when you use the word ‘want’ you’re actually holding the vibration of not having ‘it’. Or when you use the word ‘want’ you’re coming from a place of lack.

For example, the word homework excites some people yet causes a negative vibration in others. Words can feel negative to one person and feel positive to another.

To illustrate my point, read the next two scenarios and after each one decide whether you are sending a negative vibration or a positive vibration.
Note that the words are exactly the same.

Scenario # 1 – You notice something that you desire but in your head you catch yourself thinking, “I’ll never get one as it’s out of my reach.” Then you say “I want one of those”, in a whiny voice. (What vibrations would you be sending here?)

Scenario # 2 – You desire something new and you see it. With your eyes wide open and acting like an excited kid you say “I want one of those!” pointing at the exact item that matches your desire. (What vibrations would you be sending here?)

Remembering that Law of Attraction is responding to vibrations (your feelings), it’s how you feel about the words you say which is most important.

It’s not the words you use,
it’s how you feel about the words that you use.

So the next time somebody tells you not to use the word ‘want’ you can teach them why using the word ‘want’ is okay for you.

Managing Negative People

By Karen Lee Stocker

We all at some point have negative people around us. How do you know? You can tell by how you feel when you are with them. You are not matching.

Let's say on a scale of 1-100, you are pretty positive person and attract good things into your life, so we'll call you a 90 on this scale. Wouldn't it be great if everyone in our life was a 90? But sometimes we have a negative Betty around us and we'll call her a 30 on this scale. She complains all the time, doesn't like her job and complains about her co-workers. When you are around her the difference between her 30 and your 90 is the resistance you feel when you are with her. Resistance is a negative feeling or negative vibration. Can she pull you down to a 30? Yes! Can you pull her up to your 90? Usually not.

Your job is to mind your positive vibration.

In order to raise her vibration to match yours, simply everytime you catch her complaining about what she doesn't want and what's not working in her life,
ask, So, What DO you want? She will start giving attention to what she does want which will raise her vibration. If you do this each time you are around her you are managing your own vibration. She will either be more positive when she is around you or she will disapate from your life and find someone else to complain to. It's better to let negative people disapate from your life because they will contaminate you.

Remember, people will treat you the way you allow them to.

Why Are You Still Choosing Failure?

by Unstoppable Coach Frankie Picasso

Why do you always think in terms of failure? Is it so much easier to think that you can’t do things rather than you can? Have you noticed this about yourself? How about in the lives of others around you?

I am not sure why we so easily default to failure instead of success but it seems to be so.

We look to the future with a modicum of Hope in our heart, hoping, wishing and dreaming into a far off never ever someday land, but not truly believing that we could breathe life into those wishes and dreams, right now, Today!!!

Do you think it would take a miracle for something incredible and amazing to happen to you?

WAKE UP..something amazing and incredible ALREADY happened to you. You are ALIVE and breathing and experiencing an incredible moment on earth. Just because you can’t remember choosing this experience doesn’t mean you can’t use your innate intelligence to choose HOW you wish to live your life the rest of your life from on. That’s right, from this moment on you are in charge of the wonderful things in your life, just as you are in charge of the not so wonderful things in our lives. The word is called Responsibility, and once you latch on to it and use it, your life will change in way you never dreamed possible.

To quote the infamous Dr. Suess said before me,

You have brains in your head.

You have feet in your shoes.

You can steer yourself

any direction you choose.

* Dr. Seuss, Oh, the Places You’ll Go!

It’s all well and good to hope for great things to come, to use the Law of Attraction to manifest lovely cars and houses, but NOTHING happens without ACTION. Nothing happens without your active participation. You and you alone are responsible for what happens to you. It’s your choice and always has been.

Have you been watching your thoughts lately? Well you might want to start. OR, You could look at what is in your life right now, from job, friends, family, situations, and KNOW what your thoughts have been.

You brought this into your life. You attracted it all. You see, you are very powerful and you can make all of your dreams a reality, with just a little help from yourself.

ALLOWING: The Most Important Part of Law of Attraction

By Karen Lee Stocker

3 Step Formula

1. Decide what you want


2. Give it attention,energy and focus


3. Allow it

We often ask: What is taking so long?

Something is blocking it's delivery, which is what we call DOUBT. Doubt will cancel out our desires. To help remove doubt you must find proof that you are starting to manifest your desires.

1. Celebrate the proof; notice what shows up and celebrate


2. Record the evidence; be a good score keeper


3. Appreciation and gratitude help you send out strong positive vibrations


4. Use phrases like I'm in the process of... I've decided... Lots can happen...

The results you are getting are the feedback of what you are attracting. Send a vibration of the way you want it to be. As you find proof you widdle away the doubt as you manifest your desire.

Do you have to remove all the doubt? No!

You will still manifest your desires; you see the speed that the Law of Attraction will manifest your desires is in direct proportion to how much you allow.

Your homework: Celebrate things that manifest and in that very moment you are giving attention, energy and focus to what you desire and the Law of Attractions job is to give you more of the same.

Tips From Readers: Tweak Your Vision Board

Anyone can contribute to the Law of Attraction News blog! Simply visit the Contact Form and send us a note. Today we get a great tip from Michael Dan of The Message of a Master blog. (Edited slightly for length.)

---

Hey, I found that vision board will not help us to manifest easily.

I do have a concrete reason why it will not help. A vision board is full of our desires which are long term and short term together. So what happens is our energy is being scattered to many desires and insufficient force is directed to each desires. This is the reason why many cannot manifest by using vision boards.

The best method is choose our present desire let us say a cool car and place the picture where our eyes will meet them most. By doing this our whole energy is being directed towards the car thus it will be attracted to us.

Most People Are Victims of the Lack of Awareness of the Law of Attraction

By Karen Lee Stocker

Law of Attraction has one job: to match vibrations. If you are sending a negative vibration or feeling LOA matches it. And, if you send a positive vibration or feeling LOA matches it too.

Law of Attraction responds to whatever vibration you are sending by giving you more of it, whether it's negative or positive. It simply responds to your vibration.

To know whether you are sending out a positive or negative vibration, simply take a look at the results you're getting in that area of your life. They are a perfect reflection of what you are vibrating. Negative results come from the words we use.

You see:

words + thoughts = our feelings or vibrations = our results

There are 3 negative words we use every day about 150 times before noon. They are: don't, not and no. We use these words when we complain about negative stuff in our life.

Do people tell more than one person negative things? Yes! And while they are complaining LOA is eavesdropping on their conversation and gives them more of the same!

When you hear yourself saying don't, not and no ask yourself: "so, what do I want?" When you go from what you don't want, the words change, and when the words change the vibration changes.

Remember, Law of Attraction is working whether you know it or not, so be deliberate and reset your words, simply by saying: So, What do I want?
