Have you been hearing all the buzz about the law of attraction and thinking something along the lines of  “Oh sure — sit around and think positive thoughts, and the ‘universe’ will bring you everything you want.  What a joke!”

I can completely understand where you’re coming from.  While the movie “The Secret” did a great job in getting the word out to the masses, to some degree it failed miserably.  See, I already knew quite a bit about the law of attraction (or so I thought) before I saw the movie.  When I did watch “The Secret”, I was a little annoyed.  I thought they sensationalized it way too much, and led people to believe that they could just sit around and do nothing, and bicycles would be dropped at their doorsteps.

But here’s the thing.  The Law of Attraction is only one of the natural laws of the universe.  You have to also consider the Law of Right Action.  See, if your mind is operating at the right frequency to allow good things, the universe will see to it that you have access to those things.  Then, you have to take action to get them!

If you look at it from a psychological standpoint it might make more sense to you.  Consider this:  If you’re saying you want, deserve, and will have a lot of money for example, but do nothing to go out and get it, aren’t you really saying to yourself that you’re not actually capable of doing what it takes?  So in essence, your lack of action implies fear or disbelief.   If you don’t believe you can do it, the universe won’t believe it either.  And the universe always delivers what you expect, not necessarily what you think you want.

I’d love to hear some comments on this one.  I think the explanation would be much clearer if we had a discussion, don’t you?
