If we were to go by the universal law of attraction, every event, positive or negative happening in our lives is solely attracted by us. There is no such thing as chance occurrence and we quite literally build our own destiny For example, if you get late to work more often than not, you have attracted this event by thinking too hard about getting late. Or, say you had a hard day at work with your boss or your colleagues, you attracted that too, with or without your awareness of the law. The fact is that we’re using the law of attraction, every second of our lives, knowingly or unknowingly.
So, I’d like to share how we can make the most out of this seemingly simple law to attract things we really want to come in our lives. The basic three steps, it requires us to follow are: ‘Ask’, ‘Believe’ and ‘Receive’. Broadly, we can say that here’s the action plan to get started with building your own future – your way:
- Meditate: You can start with relaxing the mind with a 5-10 minutes long meditation. It not only helps the mind relax but it also helps enhance the brain power. Meditating is optional but the recommended first step.
- Be sure what you wish for: Focus on what you want and be sure about it. Once decided, do not change your mind. The universe you are sending the request to, is made up of thoughts and the language that works with it is that of thoughts. This is precisely why you ought to be sure of what you want. In case it receives an unclear message on what you want, you run the risk of getting unwanted results.
- Request to the Universe: Make your request to the universe and ask for what you want. Picture this thing as already yours. Visualize how it will look, when you’ll have it. Have a detailed vision of the thing – the more detailed it is, the better.
- Write down your wish: Write your wish down and express your feelings on paper as though you already possess the thing you want. You can write stuff such as “I am so happy now that I have………. In my life” completing the sentence by telling the Universe about what it is that you want. Picture yourself with the thing you want and write how you feel. You should exercise this daily until your wish comes true and any negations need to be avoided.
- Feel it all through: Feel it all the while as though you are receiving now, what you desire for. Behave, think and speak just as though you have the thing with you now. This is a very important step, where the law of attraction starts to work. This is the point where sometimes you start feeling that you don’t want it anymore, since you already have it. That’s exactly when the universe manifests this feeling and you get it.
- Display a sense of gratitude: Start by writing about the things universe has already gifted you with and show a sense of gratitude. Be thankful for whatever you already have and what universe has already given you. Simply paying universe back with some gratitude for the so many things it has done for us, inspires a lot more of good it can do for us. Showing gratitude really boosts the Universe to manifest your request faster.
- Have faith in the universe: Think of a perfect alternate dimension of the universe which is identical to the real world but where whatever you truly wish for, comes true instantly. On the other hand, if you start looking for what you desire, it tells the universe that you don’t have it and you will attract “not having it”. This is where usually we all mess up. So, have patience and do not get upset if things don’t start rolling immediately. Have faith in the universe and let it do it for you. If you take up the job of worrying about ‘how’ in your hands, this conveys the message to the Universe that you don’t have faith in it. The Universe on the other hand, has far greater knowledge and power than you can even imagine!
