Exposed: Why The Law of Attraction Does Not Work

by Urbain Beck

It sounds so simple: Ask, expect, and receive.

There are plenty of people who will tell you that the Law of Attraction has worked for them. Others try the Law of Attraction and have nothing but apparent failure. Without positive results, they can't help but wonder if 'the Law of Attraction' is a load of bull.

There are reasons why people have poor results using the Law of Attraction.

Lack of Patience

One reason why the Law of Attraction may appear to be failing is that you might be expecting things to happen overnight. You have to realize that you are simply sending out positive energy surrounding a subject. You must trust Law of Attraction to send your positive thoughts back to you in the right time.

What you're asking for is usually something good that you're excited to receive, like money that may save the day. You may find that you are constantly tapping your foot and asking exactly when it's going to manifest. When you're riddled with impatience, it may mean that you do not have faith that anything is coming. You are just pretending to believe and not willing to commit to anything.

Limiting the Universe to One Answer or Method

You might also be expecting the fulfillment of your wish to arrive in a specific way that seems to make sense to you. By way of example, you might ask for money. You are hoping someone will just give it to you. This may be your idea of the Law of Attraction. However, if you are aware of what takes place in your environment, you may discover another means of delivery. An idea might be revealed to you that would create the money you want. Following up on the inspired idea might involve some effort, but the end result would be the same ... the finances you asked for. If your energy is positive, you will recognize the opportunity that has been revealed and pounce on it with gratitude. By the Law of Attraction, acting on inspiration can only enhance the good in your life.

Giving Up Too Early

Another mistake people make in using the Law of Attraction is placing too much attention on their perception of the reality around them. When they see things that seem to prove that the Law of Attraction is not working, they quit believing. They get frustrated and their desire to maintain positive thoughts disappears, only to be replaced with negative thoughts. This negativity will bring more of the same.

The fact of the matter is that if people genuinely understand the Law of Attraction and the science behind it, external evidence will have little influence on them. This is because they will have total faith and trust that the Law of Attraction has been working all along. What is happening in the beginning is only a manifestation of earlier bad energy.

People who experience success with the Law of Attraction know that their new positive, focused thoughts will undoubtedly come to being.

Limiting Beliefs and Values

Negative or limited beliefs instilled since childhood may be suffocating the good that the Law of Attraction can deliver. Many have strong feelings about things they consider to be too much to ask for or have.

A great deal of this may be because of values taught in the past. If, during your entire youth, you were repeatedly told that rich people are bad and selfish, it creates a paradox when practicing the Law of Attraction to attract large sums of money. For instance, on a conscious level, you might want to manifest financial abundance using the Law of Attraction but on a deeper, subconscious level, you are rejecting any cash that may come your way because you do not want to be a bad person.

When these emotions are running in the background, it changes the energy you are sending out. There are ways to release these deep emotions, such as the release technique or Sedona method. These methods allow a person to be free of negative vibes that have come from childhood or past experiences and to use the Law of Attraction without subconscious limitations. 'Mind Movies' are an exciting new tool that can be easily used to reprogram the subconscious mind (see http://www.achieve-your-destiny.com for details). People's experiences from Mind Movies have been incredible.

You really can have what you want, if properly using the Law of Attraction. It can be easy once you change the way you think and feel about things. If you can come to fully embrace the Law of Attraction, you can witness fantastic results through the Law of Attraction.
