The Law of Attraction - The Purpose of Our Emotions

The great majority of people alive today have grown up in a world in which we were taught that in order to be successful, in order to get ahead, we'd need to get control over our emotions. To be seen as "emotional", is considered a bad thing. Overt displays of both positive and negative emotions are considered inappropriate in school, public and in professional settings. Emotions in general are considered the opposite of logical, clear thinking. Don't get emotional. Stay calm. Keep your head.
We've been taught from a very early age to keep our emotions under control. And while no one is advocating slapping people in the street because you're annoyed, or starting a food fight in the boardroom because you're happy (although that would be pretty funny), the idea that the actual feelings are inappropriate, rather than destructive displays of emotion, is incredibly damaging.
Most people think that emotions are nothing more than a reaction to an event. Something sad happens, and we feel sad. Someone pushes us, and we get angry. Someone threatens us and we feel scared.
But this is untrue. Emotions are an important part of a mechanism designed to help us remember who we are and what we're here for. Who we are, at our core, is pure, positive energy. And our physical self is always connected to that energy. We always have access to who we really are, we just tend to forget it. Most of us are trained right out of this knowledge over the course of our lifetimes. But we have the ability to find our way back, any time. All we have to do is remember to use our guidance system, our vibrational feedback system. This is what our emotions are for.
Think of it this way: who you really are, YOU, is always sending out energy to you. This energy is pure love. If you are fully aligned with that energy, the signal is strong and clear - like all the signal bars on your cell phone lighting up. You feel amazing. You feel loved, secure, free, beautiful, joyful, and you don't care who knows it. The less aligned you are with this energy, the further away from the signal you get and the weaker the signal strength is. The less of this energy you're receiving, the worse you feel. In the worst case scenario, you feel powerless, afraid, vulnerable, depressed and like you have no control. You're so far away from the signal, you not only can't hear it, you've forgotten that the signal even exists.
Once you understand that your emotions are giving you feedback on just how attuned you are to who you really are, you can begin to pay attention to them, and use them to guide you towards feeling better. But how? How can you "align" to this energy? How can you get back to full signal strength? How did you turn away in the first place?
Here's how it works: You're thinking thoughts all day. And these thoughts are energy vibrating at different frequencies. You're sending out frequencies all day. The closer the frequency of a thought is to the frequency of YOU, who you really are, the better you feel.
YOU, the pure energy YOU, sends out nothing but love. So, if you think a thought that doesn't match that, a thought that's critical of yourself, of others, of the world, a thought that who you really are doesn't agree with, you're going to have some vibrational discord. And if you continue to think that thought, the vibrational discord will get bigger.

Negative emotion isn't something to be ignored or squashed. And it certainly isn't something that we should just "snap out of". However, it also isn't something to be wallowed in, or get stuck in. Negative emotion is an indicator that what you're thinking about, what you're focusing on, isn't serving you. These are thoughts that are in disagreement with who you really are. And who you really are loves you unconditionally and has only your best interests in mind.
So, if you want to change the way you feel, if you want to feel better, if you want to get back into alignment with who you really are, you'll have to control your thoughts, not your emotions. Pay attention to how you feel. What are you thinking when you do? Find a thought that feels a little bit better. Notice the relief. Find an even better feeling thought. You can work your way right up the emotional scale.
Up until now, you've probably been at the mercy of your emotions, simply reacting to whatever happened in your world and hoping that something would happen to make you feel better. But you can be in charge of making yourself feel better. In fact, that's really the only way it works.
Here's an example: You watch the evening news every night. You see nothing but reports of how things have gone wrong in the world. It's the same every day - nothing but negative news. You start to think thoughts about the awful state of the world, how there's nothing but suffering, and how there's nothing you can do about it. And you feel helpless, angry, hopeless and depressed. Of course you do! Those are awful thoughts! But let's say you make a concerted effort to find some good news every day. You spend a few minutes searching out news items about things that went right in the world, about people helping each other, about the kindness that people offer each other (search for "good news" or "happy news" in Google if you've never done this before and don't know how to get started). Notice how your thoughts change. Notice how the world suddenly seems like a more balanced place. Good things DO happen, people are not all bastards, beauty does exist in the world. Do you notice how you feel better? Do you see how you have control here, how you made yourself feel better by focusing on a different thought?
Don't squash your feelings. Respect them. Use them the way they were intended - to help you identify how strong your signal strength is.
Now, you may be wondering what all of this has to do with the Law of Attraction. Well, here's the thing: First, feeling really good is a worthy goal all by itself. But second, the stronger your signal strength, the more power you have to manifest. That YOU, has all the stuff you've ever wanted. This frequency of who you really are, is the same frequency that you'll want to align with in order to get material things. So, the better you feel, the closer you are to who you really are, and the closer you are to what you really want. Isn't it beautiful how it all works out?

How Can You Use The Law Of Attraction For Better Results?

It seems that The Law of Attraction (LOA) is "in" since last couple of years so the reason why many people wonder how to effectively use it to manifest their wishes.
Bear in mind that there are some steps that you need to follow in order to make the best out of The Law. And the best of all is that these steps are easy to follow. You just need to follow them, believe in them and in your own ability to make your dreams come true.
If you fail to strongly believe in The Law, or in any of the steps in this process, then it will not work.
You need to feel ready to live in harmony with the universe and its laws. If you are already set to this very simple rule then you are half a way to a more successful life.
So, here are the very simple steps you need to perform:
1. Clear your mind:
This is very important. You need to know what it is that special thing that you really want. You need to be very clear and straight to the point. Vagueness won't help you at all. Be specific, please. If you can't be that clear and specific it is very difficult to focus on your goals. In fact, if you are not that specific, the yours are not goals but only vague dreams.
2. Visualization creates reality:
Believe it or not, when you visualize you are closer to your goals. Visualization allows you to touch and feel your goals, just as when they are true. Visualization brings vibration. You need to feel the image of what you want, touch it, smell it, listen to it, let it be part of your reality. Picture as many details as possible of the desired outcome. You will be able to feel your target goal or desire as already true. This feeling is the vibration playing its role.
3. Allow your goal to become reality:
You deserve it, so you should agree with it and say yes because you already have it. It is just a matter of time so that it becomes physically true. When you feel this you are allowing it to manifest. The universe can listen to you and it will respond. Allowing it is also being thankful. Visualize that goal, feel it, say yes and thank the universe for giving it to you.
Since it is reality and you love it, you must feel the necessity to acknowledge the universe for what it has given to you. A simple "thank you" can do wonders for you. Allowing shows how strong your desire is and how thankful you are.
4. The Law of Action:
Action beats meditation. I meditate and strongly advice you to do it, but taking action is way more powerful. It is the stage where everything you desire and want to manifest becomes part of you reality. Take that first step. It seems difficult at the beginning but it is necessary. The obstacles in your path will be surpassed.
Remember to follow this very simple outline. Set the goal, visualize it, feel it, allow it and act upon it. It is a surefire way to success. Your manifesting skills will soar and you will feel the master of YOUR universe.
This is how simply you can use The Law of Attraction to manifest your wildest dreams!

How To Choose Your Path in Life Using The Law of Attraction

When faced with an important decision about how to choose your path in life, how do you make that decision? What things do you have to think about? How can you make important decisions when so many of the factors are unknown? Is there a general rule you can follow that will always give you the right path for you? This article answers those questions.
There are times in life when you reach a crossroads, and at that point you have to decide what path out of those that are offered is the path you should choose to follow. The choice you make will depend on you. It will also depend on what kind of life you want to have, and on what you consider to be the most important aspects of the life.
Many people make this choice based on what others tell them is the best to choose, or perhaps more often, on what they think others would say they should choose. Frequently, a critical choice is made merely through keeping up appearances, or from trying to impress others.
Careful study of the Law of Attraction, and its implications, leads to the conclusion that there is really only one criterion you should use to judge what path you choose to take in preference to all others. You should choose the path which you feel is going to bring you the most happiness.
Your happiness is the most important thing in your life.
We are the masters of our own destiny. We create the life that we live, we create everything that is around us and in us, in creative co-operation with the universe. The mechanism by which this happens is the Law of Attraction. We create our life by attracting it. And we attract whatever we focus our attention on.
It is becoming more and more acknowledged in Law of Attraction circles and literature that our emotions are a gift from the universe to help us in making choices. When we are happy and feeling confident and positive, it is a sign that we are in harmony with our true self, and we are then attracting the things and situations we want to have. At such times we are on the right path - that is, a path that leads to our continuing happiness, health and wealth. If we are not feeling those positive emotions, then we are not in harmony with our true self, and we will thus attract what we do not want.
This is why we say that it is important to choose the path that we think or feel will make us happy. In a way, this may seem an obvious thing to say. Why would anyone voluntarily choose a path that would make them unhappy? And yet, this is exactly what so many people do, and they may well do it many times in their life. In making decisions which deprive them of happiness, they choose to create a life which is deprived of health, wealth, and positivity.
By choosing the path that leads to your happiness, you will be aligning yourself in harmony with your true self, and you will then move into a positive space of attracting health, wealth, and well-being.
It may seem a selfish choice to select a path which leads to one's own happiness. What about the needs of other people, such as one's own family?
Each situation is different, so it is impossible to generalize about this. Everyone must make their choices based on the merits of the particular life situation they are in. But clearly, in most cases, your family would be more pleased if you were happy than if you were miserable. So although at first your family may not approve of a particular life choice you make, when they later see that it has made you happy, then they will almost certainly be content with that.
Another point to make is that if you are generally happy, and you are brimming over with positive ideas and outlook, this attitude will tend to rub off on other people. They themselves will feel happier when they are around you. As we have seen from what we said earlier, this will cause them to attract positive situations for themselves, by starting from the happy, positive feelings you have given them. Far from being selfish then, you will have been of service to others, purely by being happy with what you are doing.
When you are using your emotions as a guide, you will begin to attract more wealth to you. This wealth can always be used to help others who do not have as much as you do. This kind of giving, without expectation of return, is strongly encouraged by all the leading practitioners of the Law of Attraction.
We said at the start that when making crucial decisions, you should choose the path that leads to your happiness. In one sense, it's true to say that every minute of your life, every second, you are making a decision about the path to choose as you continue into the future. The answer is still the same, choose happiness over all.
Of course, there will always be some times when the path that you believed would bring you happiness, does not in fact do so. At these times, it is important not to feel downhearted, but to change your path to choose what will make you happy from where you are now. You must always choose to begin from where you are now, and where you are now is the perfect place to be, in order to make that beginning. As someone said, today is that day!
When you have continuing, ongoing happiness in place in your life, then all the rest - health, wealth, positive space, freedom - will follow naturally as a result of the working of the Law of Attraction.
