The Law of Attraction for Beginners
|
Learning the law of attraction for beginners means you are at an exciting point in your journey, for you are opening yourself up to a world of possibilities. In fact, a universe of possibilities. Remember when you were a kid and you wished certain things were true… if only they could be real? Well, the most profound universal principles, in its essence, fulfills that which is deepest in your heart, provided you place your focus on that which you wish to see and not that which you don’t. They indeed deliver on every level your heart wishes they could. The idea that life is random, and some people are simply lucky doesn’t fit within the master plan. No, it’s just not possible that others get a crack at success, and you don’t. You just haven’t tuned into your success path, yet. So, let’s dive into the law of attraction for beginners and the core principles that you need to place your attention on, starting today.
First off, you need to integrate something into your thinking so that you can explore the concept from within. Once you have a clear idea of how to look at life and the universe, you’ll be answering the law of attraction for beginners’ questions simply by tapping into what feels right within yourself. And I’m not talking about the part of you that lives in fear or feels any regret about the life you’ve had so far.
Let’s start with the overall feel. Think matchy-matchy, magnetization and “what goes around, comes around.” Why are we drawn to one type of person and not another? We listen to what one person has to say and we immediately connect as though they’re speaking our language. Yet, another person speaks, and we find ourselves tuning out. Why do people gravitate to one abusive relationship after another? And why do we repeat relationships from our childhood?
Starting with the principles of magnetic draw, as we look at this law of attraction for beginners’ post, magnetization is central to forming attraction, positive or negative. In other words, like attracts like. Look no further than an actual magnet for this. On one side we have magnetic draw. Nothing can keep its strong pull apart. On the other side, we have the polar opposite. It’s not so strange to think that nature leaves all sorts of clues that are repeated throughout the universe. Just look at walnuts. Is it really any surprise they are excellent nourishment for the brain and lungs when they resemble both so much in appearance? When you start to really look, you will find all sorts of clues such as these in nature. The only thing keeping you from the secrets of the universe, is awareness. To begin, let’s explore the essential practices and principles in the law of attraction for beginners:
The Law of Attraction
for Beginners | 10 Essential
Practices and Principles
Magnetization – Everything has its magnetic draw and we each feel called upon toward that which aligns with our own state of being. People are drawn to one part of town while others stay away from it. We tend to invite the same kind of people into our lives again-and-again. Everything in life has its own energetic vibration and it draws unto itself, its matching vibration. Put it to analysis. Imagine all the people you’ve had exposure to in your circle of travel. All the other students in your school, the people at work, the other mothers in the schoolyard etc. Why does it feel so natural to form relationships with some and not with others? I know you can’t be friends with everyone but look more deeply at how you feel internally when you think about some of the people you have zero motivation to know.
Chances are, even though you don’t know these people, you’re getting an unconscious read internally. Sure, it could just be based on projection, but we all have this built-in radar that subconsciously tells us to stay away from certain people and to gravitate toward others. Granted, we’re sometimes dead wrong, but generally it is what propels us to have encounters that suit our current state of being. Comfort with our own current state ensures that we select within that comfort zone and, when we’re entertaining the idea of stretching beyond what makes us comfortable, voila!... we draw toward us new kinds of people and new experiences. All we need do is consciously put our focus to these new possibilities and new opportunities will present. This takes us onto thoughts!
Thoughts Create Reality – Now, this is where it all begins. We have been given the immense power of thought. We have thousands of them a day and most of them are unchecked, meaning we really have no awareness of the amount of garbage that circles in our minds. Thoughts carry energy and, whether positive or negative, they produce like results. The thoughts we have, bring about manifestation and we are always manifesting regardless of whether that manifestation is positive or negative.
Everything begins with a thought before it is materialized into the world in physical form. Whether the thoughts are focused on inventions, goods, houses, a soul mate, friends, a degree, respect… all begin with a single idea and the concentration of thought. Not every thought will produce solid results on their own because there are two components that are essential to the materialization of thoughts. The first of them being, emotions. That leads to the next principle in the law of attraction for beginners.
Feelings Energize Thoughts – While thoughts are the mental creation to manifestation, not all thoughts carry the same weight. A thought will not produce the necessary impulse for manifestation if it is void of the energy that can only be produced by emotion and belief. Feeling is the vital force behind producing thoughts of substance, thoughts that have life, thoughts that give life. This applies to the feelings of anger behind our retched thoughts just as much as it does to that wonderful feeling of excitement behind our deepest dreams.
For thoughts to reach fruition, finding their full potential, they must be matched by the appropriate emotional state of being. If you’re thinking 24/7 about that symbolic cheque you wrote yourself from the universe and, behind the scenes, your feeling bummed because you “never get what you want”, your thought isn’t being matched by your beliefs or your feelings. In other words, thoughts can be like static on a television when they are not supported by the vital energy of feelings. The picture remains unrecognizable.
Therefore, a necessary component to creating the kind of masterful thoughts you want is to constantly monitor your thoughts and your feelings. Once you have this awareness, it will be of no surprise to you to see that what you have today accurately reflects the thoughts and feelings you’ve had in the past. What you place your attention on by way of thoughts, feelings, observations and actions, grows. On that note, let’s move onto the second vital component, action.
Step Into Action – We can think and feel what it will be like to win the lottery over and over again, but without buying the ticket, or being gifted one, we know it’s not going to happen. Remember I said “think matchy-matchy” earlier? All this works that way… the whole universe. The thoughts match the feelings that match the action. All work in unison.
If I think about wanting more friends and feel the excitement about the new places I might go with my new friends, it is only the creation of desire if I choose to stay at home watching movies. I need to, at the very least, get myself out into a social situation if I want to complete the picture I have created in my mind. While there may be a few more components to creating the quality of thought and emotions that will take me to my realized goal, right thought, right feeling and right action are all necessary.
Of course, anyone can see that I’m not going to find friends sitting in front of my TV, but it is a plain example of stepping into action. Naturally, there will always be an inner prompt that tells us when or how to step into action. All three components must be present, and action is the final piece. It’s important to note that action includes our daily behavior and state of being as well. If I want to attract wealth, then I must behave and create a state of wealth within. I must act in a manner that aligns with wealth in the here and now. I cannot think and keep repeating “I wish I was wealthy” and continue behavior that supports fear, worry and reaffirms all that I lack.
The Law of Cause and Effect – Everything in life has a cause and an effect. You must identify which is the cause and which is the effect. Your current circumstances may feel like the cause of your suffering, but in fact it is the reverse. Your internal suffering, or illness of thought, is what creates the circumstances. It is the cause. It is the same for all of us. Sometimes it can seem like a harsh truth because we didn’t necessarily ask to be alone or to live in poverty, but the nuances of how we think and believe, how we have been accustomed to thinking and feeling, have every bit to do with how our outer world is created.
Most importantly, we cannot fix the effect without first correcting the cause. The reality we see around us is but a mirroring of that which lives within. That pertains to our circumstances and to the world at large. What’s happening on a global level is a mirroring of world consciousness and actions taken as a whole. To change the outside, we must make the internal changes first. The more we can take personal responsibility for the reality we create the more power we have to create a new reality.
Everything is in the Now – To create thoughts and feelings that bring to life that which we truly desire, we must consistently think and feel our desire in the presence of the here and now. This means that if we wish to be, or to see something happen that is of particular importance to us, we must see it and feel it as though it is already happening now. We experience and behave in a way that reflects that which we want in the here and now. Although the phrase “fake it till you make it” comes to mind, it is more like “live it, feel it, see it” in the now. There is no pretending, only “being.”
Gratitude Feeds Growth – To not recognize the gifts that are bestowed to us daily is to say they are of little importance. Gratitude and appreciation are the lifeblood of expanding upon that which is already good. Again, like attracts like. When we place importance and recognition, with a full heart, on those things which we are so graciously given, we expand upon the growth of those very things. Gratitude draws upon itself more goodness in its kind.
Give First – There is no getting without first giving. The most powerful way to receive that which you most desire is to give it. For example, when respect is given, it is freely returned. By the same token, when hatred is given, we can anticipate the same returned, sometimes in spades. The key is to give freely and without expectation. The focus should not be on what is owed, as to say, “I gave you this, so you owe me that.” The gift is in the giving. The receiving is a grace of its own. The energy of giving is to give with your heart engaged and the full understanding that it is a way of life. It is without attachment or expectation and the experience is solely about the joy of creating the world you wish to see.
Practice Non-attachment – In practice, the law of attraction for beginners is the same for you as it is for everyone. You must let go of attachments. Yes, I know, how can you not be attached to the very things you most long for? Attachment, however, brings with it the energy of doubt, worry, interruption, and friction, all of which go against the very nature of flowing abundance. It disrupts the pathway of the intended attraction because the feelings in themselves draw upon the energy of lack. The minute you fixate on attachment, you add all sorts of other feelings and beliefs into the mix. For example, if I attach my hopes with desperation to the idea that money will come in from one specific thing, I introduce the energy of limitation. It is not for me to know exactly where the money will come from, so I am in fact interfering with the realm of infinite possibility. As desperate as I may feel for that money, I must place my focus on seeing it in my possession and not on how it is to arrive. To allow things to happen according to your desired wish, you must ask, intend, act, and then step back and allow for it to happen in the way that only the universe can provide with its infinite wisdom.
Practice Non-resistance – Much like attachment, resistance also creates disruption to the flow of abundant energy. To be in denial of actions, feelings, truths, or thoughts that keep one from creating the life one desires, is to resist possibilities of seeing one’s dreams to fruition. This is about remaining open to lessons and insights that will lead to the desired manifestation. To do that, one might have to let go of old ways or tired habits that inhibit the creation of a new path. Remove all resistance.
You may be reading about the law of attraction for beginners, but you are not a beginner when it comes to your hunches or inner knowing. If your gut is telling you that your resentments and pride keep you from moving forward, then you know that this is a pattern you must change. Identifying areas of resistance, whether it be a jealous fixation, the habit of comparing, needing to do everything yourself, unwillingness to forgive, whatever it may be, it is a vital process in removing the obstacles to your goals. Watch for them, then dissolve them.
We have touched on some basic principles and practices in this law of attraction for beginners post. To summarize the core, thoughts are the creation of all things, and the outer world is a manifestation of the inner world. We magnetically draw toward us all that is in accordance with these thoughts, all that is in accordance with the feelings, and that which is the result of action. We are always manifesting regardless of whether it is positive or negative. To attract the positive, we must consciously express the positive in thought, feeling and action. Action includes giving that which we wish to receive and consistently creating a state of gratitude.

Your current circumstances may feel like the cause of your suffering, but in fact it is the reverse. Your internal suffering, or illness of thought, is what creates the circumstances.
