A lot of people have found the Law of Attraction to be powerful and effective for them. However, I have been approached by a few who claim it doesn’t work for them. There are also those who rightly observe that while it works, one must also take right action. In this video, I cover these and other related topics so that you can apply it extremely powerfully no matter who you are. It does work! But like anything else, using it well is a skill that is learned and improved upon. Enjoy!

Yes the law of attraction works. It has for me both in the negative and thankfully over the past two years for the positive. I believe it(the law of attraction) requires you to accept TOTAL responsibility for everything you think,want and the action you take. Once you have made this commitment and only if you do will it work for you. Yes,you are right about it being a learned skill. Practice,practice,practice! I want and must maintain positive reading,listening to cd’s,etc. Finding other people who take this life enriching way serious is a huge bonus…..thank you. The biggest lesson I have learned in applying t.l.a. to my life is persistance and patience. I was homeless two years ago. I lost everything including my daughter(the worst pain I have ever felt). Someone who cared for me gave me “The Secret” movie. As I started using actions and the ideas from that movie,other material to help me refine my goals came into light. In ‘09 I will buy my first home. It works. Believe in yourself. Look Mr. David Cameron Gikandi,I don’t know you yet.But I’ll be back and smiling as I read. I am thanking you now for what I will be learning and motivating myself with from you site.

The Secret does NOT work for the majority of people, if you check there is a lot more failures with the secret than suceeses.2nd, there is no science behind this it is just a pseudo relgion/science. They took a tiny piece of quatum physics ,threw in some Napoleon Hill science of getting rich and built a industry behind it. I am sorry to say I bought into all this baloney and wasted 8 months of my life on it.

Hello

I am a composer and I have written a number of modern music tracks based around positive visualization. I wrote them for myself to change my own life and get myself and my family out of the negative hole we were stuck in.

My visualizations are VERY different from the regular wind chimes and flutes they contain rock guitar and dance tracks and they are all short 3 – 6 mins and to the point.

I don’t know about you but I don’t have time to meditate for an hour a day but I can play 3 tracks every morning while I get ready for work. Many of my tracks are great to exercise to with up tempo beats.

Transformation and creation come from quality visualization which in turn comes from repetition. Just like physical exercise reps build muscle in this case reps bring change.

Let’s move the world to the creative paradigm.

You can hear samples on http://www.quantumcreators.com and purchase tracks for 99 cents.

Does it work?
Wrong question!
How about:Do you understand it.
The Law of Attraction can be summed up in one word…LOVE!
What you are experiencing in your life at this moment is what you are resonating with or “in love with”.
The so-called bad experiences are a reflection of your love or focus.
The best way to have those thing in life that you want more of– is continued gratitude and LOVE
for those things that you already have.
-Start being happy NOW!
-Keep it up for the 24 hrs
-and watch the miracles happen

I built my business as a salon owner with the understanding of the Law of attraction or the law of cause and effect or the law of love.
They are all the same.
Keep love in your conversation.

David, you are doing a FANTASTIC job!
I love your work
I’m a Happy Pocket fan of yours.

I don’t believe in any quantum justification for the LoA or in any metaphysical part. That said I do believe in the LoA for simpler reasons. The mind is a funny thing, you know? A total change of mind can come instantly and other times not at all.

I thought your remarks were right on. Take steps and get the feedback and repeat. Take what your mentors and advisors offer and use it. One of the hardest things to learn, for me anyway, is that we don’t have to come up with all things from scratch.

I’ve noticed that as we cruise down the river of life if we think thoughts along the lines of, “Ok, I’m not going to hit that stump right there…” that we’ll hit it almost every time. Or… “Ok, I’m not going to be late for this, I’m not going to be late… Bah! I’m late again! How…?”

I’ve found that you have to focus your thoughts on where you want to go and what you want to do and maybe how you’re going to do it. I think we’ll miss most of the stumps that way. We’ll also start to notice that most of the stumps of life are of our own making.

People don’t succeed because they are just magnets for the right things, they succeed because they DO the right things and think the right thoughts and they train themselves to become magnets. It seems to me that the magnetism (attraction) comes from the right thoughts.

Thanks
