The Law of Spiritual Attraction
Do you ever feel like you are sailing your life journey but getting nowhere? Time after time you seem to end up at the same place or what feels like the wrong place.
Believe me, I know that feeling. I have made so many mistakes, even with Spirit by my side I have ignored them, stomped my feet and fought against the wind to reach the place I WANTED to be. Only I never arrived. Sometimes I was almost there, but never at the destination I had in mind.
“I am a fighter,” “Fight for what you want,” “Go get your dreams,” “Knock down any wall in your way.” These were pretty much the mantras that kept me going. Along with hope that things would work out and of course, faith that Spirit would help me get where I wanted and what I wanted. I mean, what’s the point of law of attraction if it isn’t to get what you want out of life. Or the point of having a bucket list if you can’t crawl your way through each dream.
Isn’t the idea behind the law of attraction the ability to think it, believe it and receive it?
Clement Stone told us that Whatever the mind can conceive it can achieve.
But is that really true, is it whatever and more importantly is it the right for us?
I was doing the law of attraction all WRONG. Because no matter what my aim, my dream or my current want. I can’t sail my own ship without It being aligned with the source.
The source is GOD, the Universe, Life Energy, call it as you like, but the source is the water beneath me and the air around me. And the source knows my destination, it understands my destiny. The source is the wind that’s sails my ship And I cannot sail against the wind.
Sometimes we have to let go of what we feel we want, what we have seen others achieve and thought we also wanted. Things that were a good idea at the time. We have to ask, Is this aligned with my destiny? Is this working with the higher source, with God?
Surrender and ask, is this my true journey?
I have done many things that haven’t worked. Even though I ticked all the boxes and did as others have done and succeeded. And yet time and time again I ended up in the eye of storm with what felt like the universe against me. This left me sick, sad, and deceived, asking myself why didn’t Spirit help me? And what is wrong with my thoughts that the Law of Attraction didn’t work for me?
Napoleon Hill said Man, alone has the power to transform his thoughts into physical reality, man, alone, can dream and make his dreams come true.
This sounds great, and I believe in the power of the mind, but is it really true, is it man alone, does the source have nothing to do with our life and yet is in every part of it? Are we really just thrown out of our mother’s womb to do as we want with absolutely no purpose?
And what happens when our thoughts don’t bring us the chosen results, do we then blame the source we previously believed we didn’t need? Or do we blame ourselves for not thinking the right thoughts?
Years ago, when I opened my shop, I had many Spirit signs not to. And as a medium that’s a hard thing to admit. But I wanted that shop. They family who had it before me made a lot of money from it. They owned nice cars and lovely homes, they had given jobs to family members and lived a comfortable life.
I manifested the shop through the Law of Attraction and then I put everything into it, hours of tears and sweat. And I repeatedly asked Spirit to help me. Spirit never did. That pissed me off.
Not because I felt I was special but because I could see and hear them, I could communicate with them. Why didn’t Spirit want to help me?
At that time, I decided to do the Secret, a book by Rhonda Byrne about the law of attraction. Every day I would read the book and watch the DVD and do the suggested things in the book.
BUT I totally missed the point that the Law of Attraction only works if you are aligned with the source. If it helps you reach your bigger goal, if it is aligned with your destiny. I worked hard, desperate for customers and money in the till and rent and stock. It HAD to be my destiny because that’s the idea isn’t it, to create your own destiny?
But the thing I dismissed at the time was that I had already created my own destiny. Before I returned to this journey of life, I had created my destiny with my Spirit family and the Source. I had planned my journey and Spirit were to help me reach it. Just because I had forgotten my life purpose didn’t mean Spirit had. They would never help me in my shop, because they knew that wasn’t what I had chosen when I created my life plan.
Its strange looking back to the morning of my life and seeing how important the shop was to me back then and now, in the afternoon of my life, I wouldn’t take on a shop even if it was given to me for free. Selling products and being in the same building everyday for hours was never something I wanted. I know now I had just wanted the glimpse I had seen of the previous owner’s lifestyle, the money and the nice homes. Really it was the money I had wanted.
I had no desire or passion to run a shop. It never felt right and never felt like my destiny, and yet I fought so hard for it.
That life of running a successful shop belonged to a different person, not me. What I had really wanted was an income and to work close to home. That was my desire, and that Is what I did when the nightmare of the shop ended and I worked from home.
In a total temper tantrum one day I asked Spirit why they hadn’t at least been a little helpful. I hadn’t needed to sink so low, it hadn’t needed to have been so hard.
Spirit showed me they had helped, they had constantly upped the wind, hardened the waves, waiting for me to finally jump ship and get on with my true destiny instead of wasting time.
Did I learn back then from any of this? No of course not.
But what I missed in the morning of my life was how important it is to be align with your own life plan and ask, is this really right for me and can I serve others doing this?
You can’t give what you don’t have, but you also can’t take what you don’t give. Looking back, I pretty much hated selling products in the shop and being stuck inside all day. I was miserable because I had manifested it out sheer defiance, greed and ego. My desire to be at home giving my readings was greater than having a successful shop.
What I know now and in honesty I knew back then, is that if it isn’t in my destiny, the life plan I created for myself, no matter how much I push that ship with hope, faith and determination. It will crash, and not because I don’t believe in free will, nor because I believe we can’t choose what we want, but because I believe we DID choose and our free will is to there to help us achieve but we can’t change the direction of the wind.
If I want something I can manifest it. I have proven it with many things. I can attract things to me and I can achieve goals but if I don’t work with the source, often these things are what hurt me most.
The greatest problem in my life is often myself.
I believe in the Law of Attraction. I can create and attract incredible things in my life by using my thoughts and focus, BUT only when it is to aid with my journey.
Once I manifested a pair of trainers I really wanted. I had seen them, tried them on and loved them, but at the time they were way out of my price range. That very same week a friend told me she had been gifted a pair of trainers she would never wear and gifted them to me. They were the very same ones and in my size.
Why did I get those trainers and not win at bingo as I had also tried to manifest? The answer is because had I won at bingo (and that would have been nice by the way) I would not have bought the trainers. Instead, I would have thrown the money into my failing business.
But those trainers, were like walking on air and I decided to make use of them and go for a walk every day along the seafront. I lost a lot of weight and took my health into my own hands because of it. I then decided to take my camera with me and take pictures of the sea during my walks and found a passion for photography. I listened to music and meditated on the beach. I communicated with spirit and these walks gave me the strength and courage to shift my plans.
I take credit for manifesting those silly trainers, but had it not been in aligned with my destiny I’m sure I would never have received them or had the walks not been part of my journey I would have received them due to sheer force and got corns and blisters and ended up throwing them. All things have to align.
If the Law of Attraction is like a huge catalogue to order what you want, without the source, you can order everything you will never need and nothing that you truly will need. Everything that comes without alignment will eventually turn to mud. Until you reorder, again and again, hoping that something good will come from so much crap.
Trust that you knew what you wanted in life before you made your plan. Trust that plan and leave it with Spirit and the Source to help you receive it.
The Law of Attraction is one of many spiritual laws, and all have the source entwined in one way or another, and this one is no different. The Law of Attraction is working with Spirit, God and your Soul. It is spiritual, it is the Law of Spiritual Attraction.
If you are struggling against the wind, just park up for a moment and ask, is what you are doing now align with God, the source.
Then try the following.
Feel
Feel what you truly desire. Let’s say it’s a new home. Feel your inner desire with your heart, not your want or ego but your heart. Why do you want the home? Is it because you want to set roots, is the area safe, is it because you can imagine your family happy there. Those feelings are the desire and if they are true to your destiny should spark a passion inside. The passion of placement, security, and happiness. It is nothing to do really with those four walls, it’s the pulling of your passion to something that feels right.
Focus
Not just on that home but what it represents, use the home as a focal point, but in reality, focus on the desire for your happy home life and security. Cutting out pictures on your vision board may bring you that exact house if it is that house that is in your path and your inner intuition has picked up on it, but the vision is to help visualize the desire, not the four walls.
Take Action
Spirit and the source can do amazing things, but they don’t always knock on our door with our delivery. Take some kind of action to allow things to fall into place, go talk to your bank, put your name down in agencies, etc. Something that tells the world, you felt it, you thought it, now your doing something to help bring action if it is meant to be.
Surrender, Trust, Let go
Talk to spirit, talk to the source if that’s what you do. Talk to yourself as that’s the person who planned your journey but surrender to the source saying only if it’s meant to be.
Trust the universe has your back.
Detach yourself. Remember that even though you may be smart, wise and pretty, God knows more that you do. Detach and let your desire roll into the universe. Surrender to the source.
I used the law of attraction with my current home. I wanted to live on the seafront of the town I live now. But it wasn’t because of the walls, or the windows. I wanted the peace a Seaview gives me. I had a burning desire to write books with the sound of waves and sleep whilst watching the stars. I felt, I focused. Then I took action and knocked on every apartment building on the seafront, and even after I was laughed at by every door man I gave them my details and I surrendered, trusted and let go. if it was aligned with my destiny fine, if it wasn’t, fine. I surrendered.
I didn’t stamp my feet, I didn’t say but please I really want this, I didn’t get giddy thinking about it. I let go and trusted that I knew myself pretty well when I wrote my life plan and I was sure I had written a pretty good story for me, even if it was layered with chapters of mistakes and some shit.
I let my desires flow, felt the feeling behind it, focused on the feeling, took action, let go.
A few days later one of the doormen came to my work and offered me an apartment.
In this apartment the waves have been the back music of my life whilst I wrote my books. I take a break and let the sun energies my body whilst I work. in this apartment I have given wonderful readings, created an online school and a business that is aligned to my destiny. I give service to others and I know that is part of my journey.
There are far better apartments surrounding mine, with gyms and all kinds of interesting things, but my desire was to watch the sea and the stars and listen the waves, and that is exactly what I got.
Of course, I was slow to connect the dots, but my thoughts are far from mine alone. Some of the best spiritual minds in the world know the importance of working with the source for achieving your true destiny. One of my favourite sayings is one I found only after I had worked it out for myself, it is by,
Dr Wayne Dyer wrote.
“When you are able to passionately feel whatever it is you wish to have or become, as long as it is aligned with your highest good – that is, GOD – you become it and it becomes you.”
The law of attraction is far deeper then simply imagining what you want from the universal store, it isn’t Amazon. It can be a very powerful spiritual tool to guide you along your path and help you bring to you what you yourself created once upon a time before birth. It can also help keep away what our ego desires and what isn’t in our best interest.
Gratefulness is also a large part of the law of attraction.
