By now, unless you have been living fairly shut off from the world, chances are that you have heard about “The Secret” or the Law of Attraction.
Whether you believe in the Law of Attraction or not, just like the law of gravity, it is at work in your life 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You are constantly using law of attraction. You are attracting all that appears and has appeared into your life. If you desire the ability to take control of your life, then understanding how to use this natural law of nature is your key to doing just that.
As a certified Law of Attraction practitioner, I not only use the Law of Attraction in my life and business on a daily basis, but I also teach my clients how to harness its powers to achieve their goals as well. Creating intentions is one of the more powerful tools I use when it comes to attracting.
According to the Law of Attraction, whatever we give our attention, energy and focus to, we will attract into our lives, whether wanted or unwanted.
Wow! That is quite a powerful statement and one that is very true. If you focus on negative things such as debt, lack of customers, or a slow business, you will continue to experience these things. On the other hand, if you focus on those things you wish to achieve such as greater income, more customers, increased sales, you will attract these into your life. Realtors can continue to enjoy listing and selling regardless of the local real estate market conditions if they focus on their goals and not the market.
But let’s concentrate our attention on the subject of our focus – or our intention, if you will.
Intentions can be powerful tools when it comes to using the Law of Attraction. Many people fail to manifest their desires and become frustrated when they continue to experience lack in their life or business. Chances are, they have been focusing on simply a “want” without any real substance behind it which can result in their experiencing a “ho hum” feeling when they think about their “wants”.
If you want to add some real gusto to your manifesting, try this little exercise.
List four desires you are currently attempting to bring into your life. Next, beneath each desire, list four reasons why you desire it.
By doing this, you not only justify your desire, but you also begin to create an intention. You are now ready to tell the universe just exactly what you desire and why!
Now, simply read off the first item on your list, using the words “I intend to have….” or “I intend to make…” and then insert your desires. Now add the reasons you listed beneath the desire.
For example, you may desire to earn $10,000 or more each month. Your intention, along with the reasons you desire it, might look something like this:
“I intend to earn $10,000 or more each month”
….. so I may buy a second home
….so I can have financial freedom
….so that I may establish a scholarship
…..so I can expand my business and easily hire the help I want
Notice the difference in the way you FEEEEEL when you state your intentions.
It’s your feelings that will create the magnetism to attract your desires. That’s the key to Law of Attraction in a nutshell. The way you feel is the way you attract!
Try rewording some of your desires this way and include four reasons why you want each desire.
The powerful feelings you generate with your intentions will make all the difference in how you attract those things your truly desire.
Good luck and good attracting!
