The Law of Attraction For Skeptics

Do you know anyone who is skeptical about all this "Law of Attraction stuff"? If you talk about it publicly, I am sure you do. Maybe it is even you.

What is it you hear?

o Oh, if the Law of Attraction worked I wouldn't have all this bad stuff...this certainly isn't anything I want!
o I have been focused on getting rich all my life...and look where I am now...nope, this doesn't work!
o I am dying from this disease...I would never attract that!
o And on and on and on...

Sound familiar? Sound maybe too familiar? Maybe these are words out of your own mouth.

Let's take a look at the Law of Attraction in action. Are you a sports fan? Have you ever seen a quarterback who just can't complete a pass, and the more he tries, the worse it gets? Have you ever watched a golfer needing to hit across a water hazard reach into his bag a pull out a scarred "water ball" - and hit directly into the water? Still with golf, have you ever seen a golf pro get "into a zone" and sink every putt he tries? What the about the pitcher who can't hit the strike zone, or the one who can't miss?

Not into sports, well just listen to these Law of Attraction based phrases:

o Bad things come in threes
o Birds of a feather flock together
o The worse it gets the worse it gets
o If it weren't for bad luck, she wouldn't have any luck at all
o Everything he touches turns to gold

These phrases and thousands more like them did not just come into our language by chance. The sports examples above cannot all be coincidence. These attraction based figures of speech and observations are evidence of the existence of the Law of Attraction.

Imagine how peculiar the Law of Gravity must have seemed when it was first observed. Sure, apples fell from trees, but birds flew and boats floated. When you dropped something, you could not predict with perfect accuracy where it would land. When you shot an arrow, you knew that putting some arch in it actually increased the distance that it went. What did all of this mean about gravity? It simply meant that there were multiple forces at work, and while gravity always worked, the other forces influenced our observation of it.

So it is with the Law of Attraction. Sometimes we really are not focused on what we say we are. We may say we want money, but we are really focused on the lack of money (and so it is the lack of money that we get.) Our attitudes, beliefs, concerns all effect how we observe the Law of Attraction. That said, with sufficient analysis, there is simply no evidence that the Law of Attraction does not work. Every single thing we have, we attract.
