How "the law of attraction" works

reply to post by tommyknockers


Its kind of common to have an intent manifest "while you´re not looking".

The reason for this: "Waiting" implies non-trust and also implies "not come true yet" and also implies disbelief.

Then, we give up, let go, look elsewhere and it comes in through a back door.

Thanks for sharing that because Im only too aware of how easy it is to think this is a ridiculous waste of time.

Well done.

Now throw away your limits. You don't need them anymore.

Additional input on your project.

May the old system be replaced with the new swiftly.
May every reason for discouragement be followed by five reasons for encouragement.
May someone who was discouraged be seen to have a new sparkle in his eye and good words about the project within the next 24 hours.
May the project suddenly pick up pace and speed towards fulfillment
May you rest back in your chair and say "This intention stuff worked once again"
May the sum of intentions from thread members shoot off like rockets, land in the exactly right place and bear marvellous fruit
May the new safety system be up and running already
May resistance by people involved relax or be turned into productivity
May all this, the equivalent or better come to pass
May every tiny droplet of good thought magnify tenfold.
May some become ecstatic at the prospect of this system working
May the companies in question be safe
May the investors or people involved congratulate you
May you receive gifts from all sides
May you drown in happiness


May the spiked-chains of enlightened-bliss tighten around your neck and cut through you, impossible to escape the happiness

Its not really my main work focus but I would like to see it completed. What they have is in pretty poor condition as it is.

I will happily take the well wishes for me though.

I'm going to report some minor positive shifts in attitude, among the workers. More significant shifts have taken place with the vendors, and manufacturers than would be normal. Both of these were very positive regardless of how I might rate them. Among the workers the attitude was at a 2 or three on a scale of ten with ten being best. It is now a 5-6. so a minor jump there. From the vendor and manufacturer there was a jump from a 2 to about a 7-8 and they are now taking an active part in the project which they did not attempt in the previous two years so that much is way up.

For the hardware/software. I have seen some things that should not have happened actually coming about so there has been a direct interference with the way things were working.

The short answer is yes things are already changing. I will continue to try hard to be a detached observer in the process. If new challenges emerge I will bring those up but keep on keeping on. Tiny efforts ARE making radical changes.

Yes, Im still participating with the tiny effort of putting them in my usual intention-journals. But this journal has gained massive momentum so that its like one blot of ink moves a mountain. Momentum being the key word here, because only a few years ago my intentions amounted to...not that much. Its like conditioning consciousness to believe something will have an effect...in this case a simple little journal.

Im glad that the changes are that rapid and significant.

I do wonder though what the others have been doing...

I've been remembering your project in my morning and nightly intention concentrations, for lack of a better word. And also whenever it happens to pop into my mind. I'm so glad you're already noticing changes. Not that I'm surprised This experiment is so exciting so make sure to keep us informed.

Very Cool. I have been trying to avoid thought on it and stay neutral in thinking. I will hear more on the progress after getting everyone together for a meeting and then report back.

From one of my favourite daily quotes sections. today:

All the resources you will ever want or need are at your fingertips. All you have to do is identify what you want to do with it, and then practice the feeling-place of what it will feel like when that happens. There is nothing you cannot be or do or have. You are blessed Beings; you have come forth into this physical environment to create. There is nothing holding you back, other than your own contradictory thought. And your emotion tells you you're doing that. Life is supposed to be fun—it is supposed to feel good! You are powerful Creators and right on schedule. Savor more; fix less. Laugh more; cry less. Anticipate positively more; anticipate negatively less. Nothing is more important than that you feel good. Just practice that and watch what happens. There is great love here for you. We are complete.

I'm curious about something. Today I've been actively participating in a couple of threads that were fairly heated. The first thread involved immigration, and the other possible sex crimes against children at the FLDS ranch. Both are volatile issues to begin with, and passions ran high.

While I personally maintained a cool and collected demeanor, I know I ruffled more than a few feathers. In essence, there were alot of negative vibes sent my way.

Do these negative vibes affect in any way the positive impact I'm trying to make in my life?

reply to post by maria_stardust


In my opinion they absolutely do. One way to see this place is as a practice field to maintain decorum, calm and a positive vibe in the face of mean-spirited adversity.

Of course, the unpracticed or those having a bad day would do best to steer clear, imo.

In my heart I believe that I have been sincere in my posts and true to my core beliefs. This being the case, to what extent do you think these negative vibes can impact my life?

It depends on your reaction. If you dont respond negatively to the onslaught of negative-vibe in the world or here, it has zero effect. But if you have a knee-jerk reaction of anger everytime someone disagrees with you, the vibe is deterimental over time.

My estimate is, more than 30 minutes of continued worry or anger will have a detrimental effect on your health and your "event attraction" in daily life.

Its good to take breaks when dealing with stuff like that. Its also good to balance it out with more nurturing conversations.

But staying true to your core-beliefs can actually increase your energy so that you go out of a discussion feeling more lively.

Feeling tolerance/understanding or forgiveness towards a worldview-opponent can also increase your energy. This is not always possible...*sigh*...but sometimes it is and you know it feels good.

What are your thoughts on this?

What you're relating make alot of sense. As far as the board goes, I usually have a knack for staying above the fray, regardless of the position I take. I make an honest attempt of stating my case, without resorting to personal attacks, and my emotions here generally don't get the best of me. Today, was no exception. I can say that even when faced with a blatant racial slur, I did not respond with anger, but logic. Keeping my calm and composure on the boards is not an issue with me because I am able to maintain a detatchment and don't tend to take things personally.

Things on the homefront are another issue. It's up close and personal. It's hard to keep emotions from coming to the forefront. Especially when dealing with family.

Hi, I just found you guys. I read to page 11 and then jumped to here to see if you were still posting. Sky... Too bad you have a girlfriend, and I am married because I have a LoA for you. Your words ring for me. I have never met anyone who practices this way before. I thought I was alone. Not really, but it felt like it. Now maybe it will be easier to ignore the naysayers when I don't lock my doors, or say it will work out and they give me that 'look'. I have always had a hard time actually visualizing what I "feel" I want. I have a hard time keeping it focused and clear. Then I wander off and imagine other stuff without finishing a thought.
I have created lots of things. To my surprise. I knew I had done it too. But I always thought that the "desire" had always been there. As if the thought came after. Almost as if the "reality had already existed" and I just happened to remember it.
Loving your mind Sky!! Thanks for sharing it.

4) Feeling more attractive and valuable yourself while reducing the need to have this confirmed by others. Giving yourself appreciative attention (thereby reducing the need for any womans attention) will probably plus you up on the attractiveness scale.

I absolutely agree with this!! I know someone like this. He is so comfortable in his own skin. He is not "handsome" in the symmetrical sense, nor media standards, but he IS handsome none the less. I find myself drawn to him, as do many other women. Besides, not all of us love the muscle men. Besides, it is not always fun to find yourself staring at a beautiful man who has nothing interesting to say.

Nice flirtatious mood there.

Greetings to Oregon...and dont hesitate to pose questions to us or give us the answers.

Hi, I have way more questions than answers. I only dabbled in it. I tend to wish more than say it is so. I think that's because I have a hard time concentrating and visualizing things. I will do the writing. I love writing. I love pens and paper. I wrote the car I wanted over and over and over on a piece of paper when I was a teenager, and low and behold I got it.
I did imagine living in this house. I imagined my grandmother's house as I thought it could be one day while sitting in the yard. It looks better today.
Can you give me some examples of things you have created? I would like to know how you brought creative resources (money) to you.

My car caught on fire, and I didn't really get upset. I was apprehensive about calling 911 though, because in that split second I didn't want to be one of those people who have to call it. Totaled. I loved that car and had some great memories. I got the exact car I had been wanting. But, my ex is in the car business, and my mom has extra money laying around. I did find it exciting that he had the car I wanted on his lot. I expect help to come, but I don't always like where it comes from.

According to me nobody has only dabbled in it but is creating reality on a consistent basis with every word he/she utters and is therefore fully equipped to give the most awesome answers imaginable

Can you give me some examples of things you have created? I would like to know how you brought creative resources (money) to you.

Me personally: By bypassing the issue of money entirely, bypassing the "middle man" and aiming straight for what I actually want. Nobody actually wants money but certain creative expressions, material objects and even more importantly the feelings associated with them. Today I have what is called "passive income" but I didnt get that by aiming for the illusion called "money" but aiming for doing what I enjoy.

If you think you have to wait for money "in order to do what you enjoy" you´re in that illusion.

Normally people will say "someday, when I have money, I can...",

but the road to someday leads to a town called nowhere.

In doing what you enjoy, you utilize the resources already available.

In making the most of what you already have, you´ll get/attract more.

You judge the day not by what you reap, but by what you sow.

Give up thinking about money and instead think about what you enjoy.

Money is not the only symbol of abundance. Emotionally its one of the weakest. In other words, you get more emotional when you think of that beautiful house than when you think about numbers on a bank account.

This is basically how I came to have "more than enough".
