Can you attract love with the law of attraction?

Can you attract love with the law of attraction? Is it possible? Can the love of your life be drawn to you like magic using the laws of attraction? Over and over again I am asked this question. More than money, more than health, more than the jobs and houses and expensive toys, LOVE is the one desire that has the most confusion attached to it. Everyone wants it, and yet, those that have it seem unable to tell you how you can get it yourself. I want to end the confusion and show you an easy way to fill your life with the love that you desire.

So, can you attract love? You absolutely can, but only if you dig deep into the core of the attraction process.

The answer lies in your beliefs. If you believe that you can attract love, then that will become your experience. On the other hand, if you doubt that you have the ability to attract love, you will always struggle in that area.

In some ways, attracting love is no different than attracting anything else into your life. As long as you are clear about your intentions and your desires, and you take action, you will succeed. But unlike the material things that you want to manifest in your life, things like money, cars, toys, etc., love is not a physical thing. Love is a state of mind, an emotion, it is something that you experience or feel. It isn’t something physical that you can pick up and carry home. You can’t put it on your shelf and say, “Look, I manifested this!”

This difference is what can throw you off track with your manifesting efforts. Because what you really want isn’t just to feel love, you want to be ‘in love’. You want someone else to love you back. This takes two things on your part.

First, just as you would when you set any other intention, you must allow yourself to become that which you desire. In this case, you need to become the love that you want. Unless your heart is open and you are giving love yourself, it will be hard for any other person to break through the wall you have built and share love with you.

The second important thing you must do is to take action of some sort. Remember, the law of attraction is based on action, on life being fluid and ever changing. You have to put yourself in the flow of life so that you have the opportunity to realize your desires. The same is true of love.

You have to step up and put yourself in situations and social circles that include eligible partners. This may sound basic, but far too many people are sitting home waiting for Mr Right or Ms Right to knock on their door. It rarely happens!

But if you work on becoming more loving, on becoming the type of person that is in a warm, loving relationship, and you take action – meeting new people, going to new places, maybe signing up for an online dating service – you are certain to find your life filled with love. You absolutely will attract love into your life. The law of attraction is clear about that.

The more you put yourself into that space of love, the more love will fill your life.

Law of Attraction Mistakes

Are you making any of these 7 common law of attraction mistakes? While these aren’t the only mistakes you can make, they are the most common ones that can keep you from truly manifesting the life you want.

In order to fully tap into your power to manifest or create that life you really want, you have to be sure that you are living and acting in alignment with the laws of the universe. If you are feeling stuck at any point in the process, it is probably because you are struggling with one or more of these 7 law of attraction mistakes:

1. Not being consistent – Being consistent in your efforts is the number one thing that you can do to improve your results as you begin applying the principles in the law of attraction. This means developing new habits and new ways of looking at your life. Success will come from the small daily repetitions of the thoughts and actions that you decide are worth taking. Just as exercising only when you ‘feel good’ will never produce excellent health, working on your dreams only when you have time or when you feel good will never change your life. The law of attraction is at work in your life all day, every day. The more consistent you are in what you do, the better the results you get will be.
2. Not understanding the law of attraction - This is a big one too. Unless you fully understand the principles that make up the law of attraction you will always find yourself working harder to create change in your life than is necessary. There is no substitution for knowledge. The more you learn about how life works, the easier it will become for you to move your life in the direction of your desire. Read and study how to apply these principles in your daily life.
3. Not believing - Your belief is an important aspect of your success and happiness. As Henry Ford said, “Whether you think you can or you think you can’t… you are right!” This not only applies the your life in general, but to your beliefs about yourself and your own abilities. If you don’t believe you can change, then you will create situations that make it difficult to change. Check your beliefs!
   
4. Not knowing what you want – Don’t be wishy-washy about your desires. Nothing fuels change more than a crystal clear vision of what you want your life to look and feel like. It is easy to be overwhelmed by the choices that are available to you. It can be hard to choose. But until you decide exactly what you want, you will continue to feel like you are stuck. To attract what you want, you must know what you want.
5. Fear of change – Even though you really, really want something, you might be afraid of the changes that will occur in your life when you get that thing you want. Change is uncomfortable – especially when you don’t do it often. But until you step out of your fear, you will only attract more fear into your life, which in turn makes it harder to change. Embrace change and you will unlock the law of attraction in your life.
6. Not taking action – Manifesting your desires always takes action on your part to complete. Sitting on your couch ‘wishing’ for a better life rarely works. The law of attraction governs the whole you – your mental, spiritual, and physical selves and requires all of you to be aligned with the things you say you want. Taking action toward your desires is the final step that aligns you with your thoughts and beliefs about those desires.
7. Trying to use the law of attraction to change other people – This never works and the only thing it does is bring more frustration into your own life. Yes, you can influence other people or manipulate them into doing something or acting in a certain way, but you aren’t really changing them. The only person you have the absolute power to change is yourself. But surprisingly, when you change, the people around you will respond to that change. You may inspire or motivate them to seek some of their dreams as well.

How to understand the law of attraction.

Understanding the Law of Attraction

The law of attraction is a powerful concept that can help you radically change your life, but learning how to apply it and actually attract your desires can be challenging.

There is a lot of conflicting advice out there, some of which can be downright misleading.  Here is an easy way to get exactly what you want in life by applying this universal law.

The law of attraction is about two things: Your perspective and your objective.

Your Perspective
Your perspective is the way that you look at the world around you, it is about your experience. But here is a funny thing about your perspective – it can change. More importantly, YOU can change it to suit your needs. You see, no two people have the same experience, even if they walk side by side down a street. One person may notice one thing and the other may notice something entirely different.

What you see depends upon many things – your mood, your interests, what has been going on around you and in your life recently, even the opinions of your friends and family… lots of things affect the way you look at the world.

One of the basic building blocks of the law of attraction is that you must change your perspective, you must change the way that you look at the world, so that what you see matches what you want. This isn’t as hard as it sounds. What it means is that you have to stop looking at all the things standing between where you are now and where you want to be, and start looking at the opportunities

The key thing to remember here is that your perspective is flexible and can change.

Your Objective
Your objective is the thing that you want, or your desires. You have to be really, really specific about what you want in order to get the results that will bring you there.  If you have fuzzy goals, you will get fuzzy results. You also have to be clear about the reasons ‘why’ you want to achieve each particular goal on your list.

Be sure that you want your goals for yourself and not to please someone else. Your true attraction power or manifesting ability lies in your passion to change your life. The more passionate you are, the better. Nothing dilutes your ability to attract things into your life more than going after a goal that you don’t really want.

Getting What You Want
Master these two things, your perspective and your objective, and your life will change. If you are clear about them, you will begin to understand the law of attraction and how it will help you get exactly what you want in your life.

The law of attraction is a two-way street!

You don’t have to look far to see a perfect example of how the law of attraction works – all you need to do is to take a look around your life right now!

When you do, you will see exactly what you have been manifesting up to this point. The good, the bad, and the ugly.

If you are anything like I was, you are quick to take the credit for manifesting the ‘good’ stuff in your life, and you are probably just as quick to avoid taking responsibility for those parts of your life that you don’t like.

This is a deadly trap, and one that snares a lot of people who begin applying the law of attraction in their lives. The truth is that the law of attraction is a two-way street. You create everything in your life by placing and holding your attention upon it. When you get good results you are happy and accept the fact that you created this result. But when you get results that are less than good, or less than you expected, you are unhappy, and you allow your ego to step in and take control for a moment. You tell yourself, “This couldn’t be because of something I did, it must be the fault of ______.” And you blame something outside of yourself.

Now, it is true that sometimes things happen out there in the world that seem beyond your control, but even when that is the case, it is your reaction to that event that either allows you to grow or to remain stuck. In either case you attract what you focus on.

Don’t be fooled into thinking that the law of attraction is only about getting good results. It is not. It is only about getting results. Period.

In the town called DESIRE, YOU determine the results you get by deciding which side of the law of attraction street you want to walk down. You can choose one side and walk toward all those things you want to create and manifest in your life… or you can walk down the other side and stay focused on your problems and keep blaming the world for your hardships… and keep manifesting more of the same.

Me? I will be on the side heading toward my dreams, only I won’t be walking, I’ll be running!

Which side of the law of attraction street will you choose?

Are you ready to apply the law of attraction?

Want to know the secret of the law of attraction?

Of course you do! We all love secrets. We love the mystery, we love the thrill of having information that not everyone else has. It makes us feel special. It makes us feel like we are tapped into a special group of people who are somehow different… or even better than everyone else.

If you have seen or read The Secret, you might have noticed the claim that this secret knowledge of the law of attraction has been kept secret for hundreds of years and that only a select few have been allowed to access powerful way to manifest your desires.

Nothing could be further from the truth!

When it comes to success and the law of attraction, the truth is that there really is no ‘secret’. There is no hidden knowledge.

The keys to success, the keys to understanding and applying these ideas have always been here just waiting for you to step up and take advantage of them.

Transforming your life requires two things:

1. Knowledge of how to change

2. Action that initiates the change you want

If you are struggling in any area of your life, this is your solution. Learn how to change and then take action and start making the change.

Learning How to Change

This is the easy part because so much information about the law of attraction is readily available today, just waiting for you to grab it. The bookstores are full of it. The web is overflowing with it. If information was all it took to create the life of your dreams, the world would be full of happy people.

But information alone is not enough!

I’ve found that the problem is seldom that clients don’t have enough information… usually it is quite the opposite, they have so much information that they don’t know where to start. They suffer from overload. They are so worried about the process that they get distracted from their original goals.

Has this ever happened to you?

Success will come when you release your need to master some secret technique and instead focus on the actions that will move you toward your desired outcome. Once you forget about trying to become ‘good’ at the law of attraction, or becoming good at manifesting, once you let go…

… that’s when the magic happens. That is when you will see your reality beginning to align with your desires.

It’s a process, and the process only works when you leave it alone. Remember, a watched pot never boils!

Happy Sunday! Here is your Sunday morning law of attraction video. I recently stumbled across this wonderful video featuring Marianne Williamson and just knew that I had to share it with you.

Truly, this is the path that we all seek to be on. To be open to the wonders of life around us, to be in the flow, to be part of the creation process.

It starts each morning. Each morning you have a choice. You can either choose to let yesterday’s garbage ruin any possibilities that today might bring…

or you can choose to start your day fresh, energized, and ready to move forward on the path you have chosen…

The choice is yours!

Each day brings you a new opportunity to have a GREAT DAY. You simply have to decide to take advantage of it.

It is easy to feel like the choice is not yours to make, that all these terrible things are going on in your life, but the truth is that all that stuff can only effect you to the degree that you allow it to.

Just as a primary lesson in the law of attraction is to learn to allow your desires to come into your life, you also have to learn to NOT allow yesterday’s garbage to stink up today.

You see, you choose what to allow into your life through your attention and your focus. How you react to what happens around you sets the tone for your day.

As Marianne says in this video:

“If you are involved in a deeper inquiry, if you are involved in a more reflective life, if you are involved in prayer and meditation and serious spiritual seeking, that stuff just recedes. Its there, its there to dance with and to have fun with, but its not there to make you suffer.”

Here’s to dancing and having fun!

p.s. Creating your day with the law of attraction is one of the core lessons that we cover in the Inner Circle of Success.  The Inner Circle is our members-only self improvement study group and we’d love to have you join us!

It's not magic! Learn how to create your day the law of attraction way.

Creating your day.  The law of attraction promises us the ability to literally do just that… to change the very fabric of our day, to have a BETTER DAY.

I was thinking about this concept today, as I was out running some errands. I was driving along in my car, half listening to a wonderful course from Bill Harris, half daydreaming, when I realized the fundamental problem most people have when they talk about creating their day.

They simply don’t have better days. At least not enough of them.

In their mind, they envision each day to be full of love and happiness and balloons and candlelit dinners and mailboxes full of fat checks…

…but the reality is that even after trying, REALLY TRYING to use all these wonderful techniques that they learn about from law of attraction books and teachers, even after meditating and getting centered and aligned and who knows what else…

They STILL have bad days.

So they blame the law of attraction or they blame the teacher, or they blame God or the universe.

But that doesn’t help either and soon they find themselves right back in the same mess they started with.

Here is the solution:

Creating your day, regardless of your beliefs about the law of attraction, is NOT about having everything go your way all the time, about the universe lining up to bring you desire after desire after desire. About day after day of bliss and happiness.

Creating your day IS about you learning to control your reactions to the events of your day. Because it is never the events that give you a hard time, it is always your reaction to events in your life that cause you to struggle.

The more control you take over your reactions the better you will be able to guide yourself into taking productive actions that actually help you move forward.

Enlightened people don’t have less problems than you. They have the same things happen to them as you do. They just look at those ‘problems’ in a different light. They react in a different way.

In every situation there is a way of thinking and acting that empowers you and helps you grow.

Your job is to find it and embrace it!

It will happen as soon as you stop TRYING to have a good day and simply decide that you will have a good day, in spite of whatever comes up.

Sometimes you need to pause and step back to see what is really going on. Sometimes you need an outside viewpoint, like a trusted friend or a mentor, to help you see the truth of your problems.

In either case, as soon as you are able to change the way you are looking at your problems and your ‘bad’ days, the sooner you will be able to transform them into ‘good’ days!

You don’t have to be a law of attraction expert to learn to create your day, you just have to be willing to change!

Law of attraction key: Stop counting and start living!

In the last post, I shared a law of attraction video from Michael Losier, who talked about setting goals with the law of attraction. One of the things he said struck a chord with me, and with several readers as well. He said we tend to ‘keep score’, which distracts us from our original desire.

This is important. If you are busy keeping score, if you are always counting to see how close to your goal you are, then guess what?

You are slowing your own progress because you are no longer focused on your goal. Now you are focused on that area of lack that exists where your goal will eventually go.

As with most things related to the law of attraction, this seems to be a paradox, it seems to be an impossible task.

But the letting go of your desires so that they can manifest is, in fact, a natural way to live. It is much more stressful to be constantly checking to see if you have those ten new clients that you want, than it is to simply move towards those new clients isn’t it?

When an author sits down to write a 1,000 word article or a 50,000 word book, he or she doesn’t count each word along the way. Sure, they might check once in a while, but not all the time. If they did, they wouldn’t get any writing done. And they don’t just stop writing the instant that they hit 1,000 or 50,000 words either, the story they are telling may flow beyond those limits.

How often in your life have you found success when you stopped counting, stopped keeping score, and just focused on doing the thing that moves you forward? A lot I bet!

It happens to us all. The difficulty comes because we like keeping score, we like knowing just how far we have left. But when you keep your attention on the gap between your desires and your reality, the gap only grows bigger.

Let go of your dreams and live as if they are already real!

There are many pieces to the law of attraction puzzle, but none as critical to your manifesting success than inspired action.  In this video I shot last year I talk about the importance of taking inspired action:

Are you taking inspired action? Or are you just busy taking action? There is a big difference between the two, and there is also a big difference in the results that you will get in life.

Inspired action always comes from within. It can be subtle, but it is always there. It is your inner voice whispering to you, urging you to take a certain action.

Let me ask you this, how many times have you ignored your inner voice and later regretted it?

More than you’d care to admit?

Well, that can change, right now!

It’s just a matter of learning to listen to your SELF.

Most of the time, (if not all of the time,) you know the answer to your problem. You know what to do next. You know in your heart the right path to take.

But you are not acting from your inner self, you are acting from your conscious mind, complete with all your fears and doubts and worries. Maybe you are looking for solutions outside yourself, maybe you are stuck in the blame game, maybe you are torn between conflicting desires.

Those are all things I’ve written about before.

The solution is always the same.

Get clear about your desires and take inspired action.

Once you have decided on a dream, your inner self goes to work. It looks for ways to bring you to your dream. It looks for opportunity, it looks for connections, it looks for the shortest path to your dream.

Then it tells you what it finds. Your inner self actually tells you how to reach your dream. It tells you the steps that you need to take, it tells you where to go, what to do, who to talk to.

The problem is that you don’t listen.

So, let’s change that!

Here are some simple ways to begin taking inspired action:

1. Starting today, commit to paying attention to your inner voice. Promise your SELF that you will listen, that you will take action when the time is right.
2. Meditate. Meditation is a great way to gain control over your focus, which will allow you to hear your inner voice more clearly.
3. Write it down! When you get a great idea or an inspired plan, write it down! Many times your best ideas come when you are busy doing something else, and by the time you are done, you have forgotten your brilliant idea.
4. Believe in yourself.  Believe in YOU. Believe that you will always act in the best possible manner.

That’s all it takes to start benefiting from your inner strength and wisdom, a belief in yourself and a commitment to listen to your SELF.

And don’t waste time worrying about all those times in the past that you didn’t listen to your inner voice. Forgive yourself, love yourself, and move on! The law of attraction proves that if you focus on your past mistakes you will only create more of them.

Focus instead on your dream, and take the inspired action that your inner self guides you toward.

How to attract love - does the law of attraction help?

Here is a question that I hear a lot:  How can I attract love using the law of attraction? Is there a secret?

How to attract love into your life, or how to improve the relationships that you already have, are among the most frequently asked questions surrounding the law of attraction. It’s a question that many people have on their mind. I frequently get emails and online messages about how to attract love, and people post questions about love and the law of attraction in forums all the time.

Why? Because your relationships have a profound effect on many other areas of your life, and the quality of your relationships is often a reflection of the quality of your success at manifesting your desires in those other areas.

In other words, if you are struggling with love or with your relationships, you are probably experiencing struggle in other areas of your life as well.

One of the keys to a happy, peaceful life is staying balanced, and when your love life is out of kilter, everything else seems ‘not right’ too.

So how do you attract love? Do you just think about love?

Well, yes… and no…

First, as with anything else that you are trying to manifest or create in your life, you have to be crystal clear about what it is that you want. This is doubly essential when it comes to love or your relationships.

You have to look behind the idea of ‘love’ and understand what love really means to you. Love is a very lofty term, and we throw it around in all kinds of different situations, but we assign different levels of meaning to it in each of those situations. My ‘love’ for my mother is quite different from my ‘love’ for my daughter, which is also very different from my ‘love’ for my wife.

What does love mean to you?

A more important question to ask yourself when trying to apply the principles of the law of attraction in your life would be, how would your ideal partner make you feel? Secure? Comfortable? Empowered? Loved? Proud? You have to know what roles and feelings your partner is expected to fulfill.

So understanding what type of love you are trying to attract is the first step.

The next step to attracting love is where many of us struggle. We have to take a good honest look at ourselves and see if we are the type of person that someone with the qualities we are looking for would find attractive. And I’m not just talking just about the physical here. Are you attractive on the inside?

Are you the type of person that can allow a partner to share in your life? Are you the type of person that can receive those things that you desire from them?

Ask yourself what you can do to make yourself more likely to attract the kind of person you are seeking. Then listen to your heart and begin to make some changes in yourself. Clean up your act and step it up a notch.

Become a better quality person and you will attract a better quality person.

That’s the essence of the law of attraction and love.

p.s. Creating great relationships can be one of the most frustrating aspects of manifesting, but it doesn’t have to be. At its core it is no different than anything else. YOU can have great relationships right now, YOU can attract the love you desire!
