Where Are Your Thoughts Taking You?

You will often find that when your life is not flowing the way you would like it to it’s because you are putting your attention on the very things you don’t want in your life. It doesn’t matter how right you are, how wrong the other person is or how unfair things are. This is the law of attraction, which is that like attracts like. Critical thoughts attract critical people. Thinking about a lack of money means money stops flowing. Thinking about doing a job you dislike keeps you stuck doing jobs you dislike.

The Law of Attraction works, I have absolutely no doubt about that. And while there will always be people who scoff at such a notion there are many very successful people, such as Oprah, who live by it. Your thoughts, words and actions are the energy source that you use to create what you want, or don’t want. How you think determines your language and what you talk about, which in turn influences how optimistic or pessimistic you feel. How you feel has an impact on every decision, choice and action you make. It’s that simple.

If your focus is on there never being enough for you, not being good enough, or other people being out to get you, that is what you will notice. You may be surrounded by good fortune or people who care about you. People may tell you they love you and that you are good enough but your mind will discard that and focus on what you expect.

No matter what your situation is there will be a strategy that works for you. Sometimes you just need to experiment. The benefits to be gained from consciously watching your thoughts and words make the effort well worthwhile.
