Why the Law of Attraction by itself is NOT "The Secret"

Why the Law of Attraction by itself is not The Secret:
Learning, applying and even mastering just one of these Universal Laws is also not enough. The changes you can make on your life, by applying changes to just one Universal Law may not be significant. If you want to be a power player, you must learn, apply, master and live by all of these Universal Laws.

Let me give you an example. The DVD and book “The Secret” took the world by storm and literally made the Law of Attraction a house hold name. A recent study was performed by Brian Wong, part of Bob Proctor’s (one of The Secret teachers) community, in order to study the practical application of the Law of Attraction by itself. Here are some of the study’s results:
· 51% of people applying the Law of Attraction in their daily lives to tackle immediate and current concerns as well as to achieve personal growth have difficulty making the Law of Attraction work consistently.
· 56% feel that the Law of Attraction is crucial, but not enough for practical application.
· While the Law of Attraction works for 9 out of 10 people, it only worked sometimes for approximately half (51%) of those surveyed. From the remaining surveyed the Law works for 29% consistently, with 19% able to make it work for them only once or not at all.
· 43% of people surveyed feel that the Law of Attraction, while crucial, is not enough on its own. This feeling is consistent with the 51% who cannot get the Law of Attraction to work for them consistently.

Although the Law of Attraction is an extremely important Universal Law, it is only one piece of the puzzle. Without the remaining pieces, it may be rather difficult to gat that law to work as clearly and efficiently as it was meant to.

Read Why the Law of Attraction Alone is Not "The Secret"!

Do you remember that first spark of hope you felt when you watched The Secret? I clearly remember the desire that filled my heart, knowing that – Yes, I can make my dreams come true – FINALLY!

But how many of you soon saw that hope dwindle into frustration? How many of you (and be honest now) started muttering things like:
- “It seems to work for other people, but I just can’t get it right.”
- “I’m frustrated that sometimes I can get it to work, but sometimes I can’t. What’s the trick?”
- “Why am I having so much trouble?”
- “I think the universe is against me.”
- “I’m trying very, VERY hard but still nothing is happening!”

Don’t worry, you’re not alone. About 97% of people also couldn’t make the Law of Attraction work for them the first time round. Think about it, just like anything else, you have to practice many times before you see success. A child doesn’t learn to walk without falling over a couple of times, right?

But in practice, everything is easier said and done. When you’re frustrated, it’s hard to stay positive. And it’s especially harder to stay positive when the evidence all around you is screams negativity like the unstable economy or senseless acts of violence such as those recently seen in Mumbai.

And do you know what happens when you fail to stay positive? That’s right – you start attracting negative things in to your life.

So how can you make the Law of Attraction work for you – without getting frustrated? How do those who successfully implement the Law of Attraction do it with such confidence and finesse?
Well, here’s three quick tips so you will never feel frustrated or tired of begging from the universe, because you know how to start manifesting like a pro.

1. Allow Yourself To Receive
Just like a lost child who approaches a police officer and asks, “Excuse me Sir, can you tell me how to go to the post office? Can you? Can you? Can you? Can you? Can you?” Well, if the child goes on and on asking, the police officer can’t even give an answer, right?
Well, it’s the same thing with your mind. If the only thing your mind is doing is transmit, transmit, transmit, the universe — which is trying to respond — can’t give you a single thing because you’re not allowing yourself to receive!

So, have the confidence in yourself and stop exhausting yourself by running around person to person begging for riches, and then wondering why nobody is dropping a penny in your cup (Hint: It’s because you’re running away too fast for them before they can even reach for their wallets).

Just think of your desires and leave it out there, go away, and trust that your cup will be filled with gold coins (or whatever it is you asked for) when the time is right.

2. Be Patient With Yourself
Receiving takes time.
Sadly, many people give up just a couple of steps before the finish line because they’ve decided that if it’s not working by now, it’s never going to work at all. Worse still are those who throw in more and more energy because they think that with more resources, the results will come faster.
This is like expecting 9 mothers to conceive and deliver a baby in 1 month. You also can’t bake cookies in half the time by doubling the temperature. You’ll incinerate those cookies to ashes!
In simple terms: Everything in this world has a natural development time, and this fact will not change no matter what resources you throw at it.

So relax and be patient. Remember that you too, as part of the universe, are also governed by the laws of the universe, and you cannot change the natural development time.
If you remember this, you will less likely work yourself up into frustration, or worse, push yourself into a downward spiral of negativity.

3. Support and Educate Yourself
Like the child who is learning how to walk, you need support. You also need to guidance on how to do it, and also the role models to look up to.
Many people give up because they think that “The Secret” is the “be all and end all” solution. Well, it’s NOT. “The Secret” is just a small portion. It was never intended, and has never been, the whole answer.

Coming to the conclusion that the Law of Attraction doesn’t work when all you ever did to educate yourself was watch “The Secret” 19 times (without looking at changing the habits of other areas of your life) is like coming to the conclusion that exercising is not an effective way to lose weight because all you did is run on the treadmill for 2 hours a day (but you’re still stuffing yourself with fried foods and cheesecakes).

So seek and be hungry for new knowledge. Also, make an effort to be amongst people or communities where you can support each other, learn from each other and also share new knowledge that you have found.

While the Law of Attraction is not an overnight delivery service, it will indeed deliver, if you do your part too!

New year, old results?‏

If you haven't got The 11 Forgotten Laws yet, I hope you're not making the same mistake as every one else by making New Year resolution lists. Why? Because you need a manifestation list! You've probably been writing resolution lists year after year... but has that helped you live the life of your dreams yet?

To live the life your dreams, the first step is a manifestation- NOT a resolution - list. I'm sure you already know that in order to attract what you want, you have to first write it down.

The second step is putting the Law of Attraction into action, and what better way than with The 11 ForgottenLaws from Bob Proctor? Because what makes you think that with the same information and the same attitude that you had in 2008, that you will be able to get different resultswith the Law of Attraction in 2009? That's why I want to strongly encourage you to start your new year with new resources so you can finally manifest all your desires, even when the economy is supposed to be at an all time low.

That's why I don't want to WISH you a Happy New Year. I want to give you the choice to MAKE a Happy New Year.

PS: Here's what one person has said: "There are a lot of books and teachings out there that kinda teach you how to work with the laws and what to do but there’s not one [like The 11 Forgotten Laws] that interprets them and shows you how to use them in your life. What do I do day by day? How do I use these in my life? So I would encourage all of you to take the chance and the 0pportunity and make that transformation and really find out how you can achieve whatever you want in your life." -- Genie Calen Barat

Exercise with Positive Affirmations to Create Optimal Health & Well-Being

This is an exercise on how to get the most out of your affirmative thoughts.

1. Write your affirmative thoughts down.
2. Make your affirmations clear and concise.
3. Make your affirmations detailed.
4. Make your affirmations appropriate and believable. For example if you lost a limb, you would not expect that limb to actually grow back, but you would affirm that you were reaching higher and higher levels of function.
5. Describe your affirmations as if they are already true, as if the end result has already occurred.
6. State them in the present “I” form. Make them personal, in the first person.
7. Only state what you want, not what you do not want.
8. Do not focus on lack or limitations, only on a fuller recover or advancing of self expression.
9. Say them out loud, shout them if you feel comfortable.
10. Place them all over the house, on the computer, in the refrigerator, in the kitchen cabinets on the mirror-places where you will see them, read them and repeat them often and continuously during your day.
11. Attach strong positive emotions to your affirmations to ignite them with, energy and power. Emotions add amazing power to your thoughts and speeds up the manifestation of that thought into your experience.
12. Visualize the affirmation. Close your eyes and see the end result.
13. Repeat your affirmations. Repetition is key to implanting your affirmations into your subconscious. Say them over and over.
14. Record your affirmations on a CD and listen to them as you are falling asleep. You may prefer to play them on an endless loop tape that just continues to repeat over and over all night so you can pick up the message into your subconscious.
15. Believe you can achieve it; believe it is coming to you. When your desires or your affirmations are in conflict with your imagination, your imagination invariably wins and you push away your desires. You cannot hold two contradictory beliefs in your mind at one time, your mind will attempt to harmonize and will accept your stronger belief which most often times is the negative default pattern. Your desires cannot come to you when you have conflicting desires or thoughts.. Start stretching your imagination, little by little and believe in your heart and soul that it is true. Stretch, do not snap your imagination, and make your affirmations believable to you. Make your affirmations your default pattern of thinking.

Sample Affirmations to achieve optimal health and well-being:
· I am open to receiving even more health and function.
· I am feeling better and stronger each and every day.
· Good health comes to me in a large flow of abundance.
· Everyday I am getting healthier and stronger.
· I deserve good health and function.
· I am now pain free.
· I am now free from addiction.
· I am a health magnet.
· Good health flows to me easily and frequently.
· The flow of good health is opening up to me more and more each day.
· Everyday I experience greater health than the day before.

Excerpt from "Acquired Hope: A Journey of Advanced Recovery and Empowerment"

Using Positive Affirmations Effectively

Affirmations are nothing more than a string of words, however, which will not make a difference unless you know how to use them for maximum effectiveness. When you give you positive affirmations power and energy, they take off, go out into the universe and attract back to you all the health that you desire. You must give them power and energy in order to get your results. You must believe them to be true. This may go against your current logic; you may play a tennis match in your mind, for awhile. However, you must believe your affirmative thoughts to be true in order for them to work. As the Bible says:

“Whatsoever thing ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye have received it, and it will be yours.”
-Bible

Affirmation, is the metaphysical term for Prayer, so it is true to say, “if you believe your desire has already come to you, is must appear, it must come to you.” First, become aware of your negative thoughts, replace them with positive ones. Second, believe your affirmative thoughts to be true. Lastly, give your affirmative thoughts power and energy. There are two ways to give your affirmative thoughts power and energy: repetition and emotion.

Repeat your affirmations often. Say your affirmative thoughts in the morning, during the day and at night. Write them down. Post them throughout the house so you see and read them continuously. Make them your default pattern or way of thinking. When you notice these positive affirmations running through your mind in the middle of the night and in your dreams, that is when you know you are on the right track. That means your affirmative thoughts are now running through your subconscious. Focus on what you do want, not on what you do not want, do not focus on lack or limitations, focus on the end result of your ultimate desire, to feel good, to be healthy and well.

Additionally, fill your affirmative thoughts with positive emotions. Feel the love, joy, passion and hope with every affirmative thought that you have. Think of how it feels to be loved, that unconditional love, from your partner, child, or pet. Feel the warmth in your heart. Remember that feeling. When you practice and repeat your affirmative thoughts, feel the warmth in your heart, feel the health, feel the joy of having good health, believe it is on its way to you right now, the affirmation must go into your subconscious and become a knowing. Using strong emotions is a powerful way to give your affirmations the energy they require to send them out to the universe or your Higher Power and speedily attract your desires back to you.

“You can have anything you want…. You must want it with an exuberance that erupts through the skin and joins the energy that created the world.”
-Sheila Graham

Decisive Action: The Door To Success

If you are seeking further life expression, abundance, better health, more free time or wealth and prosperity, you must act. This life success strategy of taking decisive action is used by those people who have mastered their results.When you put off taking action, you put off a better future, you put off the manifestion of new results in your life. When you procrastinate on moving forward in an empowered way, you only set yourself backwards, as the universe is always seeking further life and expression, the universe is always advancing. When you do not advance, you are not working in harmony with the Universal laws.

Decisive action, that is what is going to make the difference for you in moving from your current circumstances, environment and results, to the life and new results that you dream of.Those that do break through and take decisive actions when they are presented with the right opportunity are the ones that manifest quickly, effortlessly and joyously. They have developed a higher level of awareness, an instinct, they are intune to how the universe works, they follow their inner guidance system, they are intuned to their emotions and are confident in the direction they are going. They endeavor to live.

They carefully evaluate all opportunities and realize that success happens with opportunity meets readiness.When they have found an opportunity that matches their intentions, they act decisively, quickly and efficiently, with a sense of empowerment. They say "yes" to the universe and move confidently. There is no indecision, no hesitation. They jump at the chance to begin working on and advancing their freedom.If you are ready to change your results and endeavor to live, you must act decisively when the right opportunity shows up in your life, know that it is there because you attracted it!Memorize this incredible quote below by Thoreau, place a copy on your mirror, fridge or computer so that you look at it often.

"If a person advances confidently in the direction of their dream, and endeavors to live the life they have imagined, they will meet with success unexpected in common hours."-Thoreau

“Turn Your Life Around In Less Than A Week”

The problem with most manifestation guides is that they teach you all of the concepts, but none of the “meat.” If you’ve ever been left wondering “What do I do with all of this great information?,” you know exactly what I mean.

The truth is, most manifestation teachers don’t know how to apply what they are talking about. They don’t understand the scientific principles behind the Law of Attraction, so they can’t tell you what to do when you run into delays or problems.

You too can...

The Power of Gratitude

There is a natural Law of Gratitude, it is necessary for you to observe this law in order to advance your recovery. The law of gratitude is a natural principle that action and reaction are always equal and in opposite directions. The grateful outreaching of your mind to the universe of Higher Power is an expression and liberation of energy, it cannot fail to reach whom it was addressed to, the reaction will be an instantaneous movement of that which you are wishing for, towards you.

The power of gratitude does not just mean however that you will be blessed in the future. Without gratitude you cannot long keep from dissatisfied thoughts regarding things, such as your health, as they are. The moment you allow your mind to dwell on dissatisfaction upon things as they are, you begin to lose ground on advancing your recovery, or in receiving those things that which you have wished for. If you fix your attention on the illness and lack, your mind takes the form of these things. More illness and lack will come to you.

On the other hand, when you focus your attention on all that you do have, the health and difabilities, and then express strong and continuous gratitude for these things, more ability and health will come to you. The mind and creative process within us makes us into the images of that to which we give our attention to. Focus on your strengths.

Faith
Faith is born of gratitude. The grateful mind continually expects good things and expectation becomes faith. The reaction of gratitude upon one’s own mind produces faith. Every outgoing emission of energy of grateful thanksgiving increases this faith and advances one’s recovery.
“Faith is not being sure… It is not being sure, and betting with your last cent.”
-Mary Jean Irion

One who has no feelings of gratitude cannot long retain a living faith; without a living faith, one cannot heal or fully recover using the creative process.
“Faith is not a passive but active virtue.”
-Bishop Fulton Sheen

Create & Receive That Which You Want!

According to the natural laws of attraction, in order for a desire, wish or state of being to manifest, sometimes action will be required. This is the universe or Higher Power actually trying to put you in a place to receive that which you are asking for. This is step three of the creative process, this is the receiving step. You may get an inspired thought, an idea out of the blue, a gut instinct, telling you to do something. When this happens, take inspired action, follow your instinct. This may be an urge to call an old friend, send an email, search for something on the internet that may lead you to better medical treatment or a physician or friend who can provide you care or support. These inspired actions often lead to new opportunities or they attract people or events into your life that will in the end be part of your wish coming true. If these inspired thoughts feel true, then it is wise to follow them and act upon them. You may be surprised how people or things quickly fall into your life in the process of realizing your ultimate wish.

“All things are what you make them.”
-Plautus

Using the Creative Process to Attract What You Desire
The creative process involves stating what you are really wanting, allowing the universe or Higher Power to answer and then putting yourself in alignment, or that happy feeling place, in order to receive that which the universe is trying to bring you. An intense desire is the spark that starts the engine of co-creating your experience with the universe. It turns your thoughts into things, people and experiences. It raises your energy or vibrating frequency such that the universe or Higher Power has no choice other than to respond and bring you things or persons that match your frequency. Just like a magnet.

Maintaining a focused attention on what you wish for, down to the detail, helps to provide a clear and consistent message to the universe or Higher Power, helping the wish or thought to be manifested. Focusing your attention means that you imagine your desires, the details, the senses, the feeling place of having it now and you following your inspired thoughts with inspired actions. Never take you eye off the goal. Focus on the end result. Do not change the goal until you have received it. You can make new goals once you get the hang of this. In life’s journey, our travels are filled with goals, experiences and feelings as we go towards our final destination.

Lastly, make the decision that this is what you really want, such as good health, full functionality, pain free movement, the return of strength and mobility, emotional and spiritual strength, settle for nothing less. Making this decision and holding fast to it creates the expectation that is it on its way to you. Act with faith and purpose and believe that your wishes truly are coming to you.

Excerpt from my book "Acquired Hope" see also www.AcquiredHopeBook.com www.AcquiredHope.com and www.AbundantHopeBook.com

The Creative Process

Creative Process
The law of attraction states that what we think about and focus on most, we will bring about into our experience. This is a conscious process, where you are co-creating your experience with the universe or your Higher Power. There are three steps in the creative process of creating your own experience.

Step 1: Ask
The asking step means that you ask the universe or Higher Power that which you are wanting. What do you really want?

Step 2: Answer
This step is the answer step, the universe or Higher Power will do this step for you. You will not know how or when your wish or desire will be delivered to you. But trust and have faith that the universe will rearrange itself to bring your wish into your experience.

Step 3: Receive

In order for your wish to happen and for the universe or Higher power to bring you your wish, you must put yourself in alignment and a state of being open to receive. You must bring yourself into a higher frequency of vibration and be open to receiving. You can do this by feeling good. If you are feeling good, feeling grateful, joyous, optimistic, happy, hopeful, you will receive what you are asking for. However, if you have a mindset of negativity and are vibrating at the lower frequencies and pushing back, that which the universe or Higher Power is trying to bring to you, it will not come to you. That means is you are in a chronic way of thinking in a negative way and feeling bad, as in feeling anger, despair, frustration, lack, depression, you are not in alignment with what you really want, and the universe or Higher Power cannot bring you that which you are wishing for.

In order to manifest your wish into your existence, you must become one with your wish. You must become in alignment with your desires.

“Perpetual optimism is a force multiplier.”
-Colin Powell


Creative Process Exercise
Step 1: Asking:
In chapter one, the goal setting exercise required that you list, in detail, that which you really wanted. Review your list now. This is what you are asking the universe or Higher Power for. Remember spell it out, be specific, pay very close attention to your thoughts and feelings when you finalize your list. If this exercise is difficult for you, start by writing down what you do not want and then rephrasing that list into a positive list that is detailed and the opposite of your do not want list.
(List from chapter two)
1) I wish to spend 3 hours a day, one on one time with my family, playing, laughing and having fun together at the park.
2) I wish to exercise for 30-60 minutes 3-5 times a week, including walking, bicycle riding, weight lifting and swimming.
3) I wish to work in an environment that allows me to strive, not just survive, I wish to be successful and promoted to manager within the year.
4) I wish to meet my soul mate and be involved in a loving, caring, sharing and passionate relationship with this person and partner.
5) I wish to make “$ XX” dollars a year.

Step 2: Answer
This step the universe or Higher Power does for you. The universe or Higher Power is very creative, far more than we can even imagine. Your task is to figure out what you desire, what you really want, and let the universe or Higher Power bring it to you. The universe or Higher Power figures out how and when, that is not your decision. You may have in mind how you would expect what you want to come to you, but if you focus on the how and when, you are limiting the universe or Higher Power in its ability to bring your desires to you. Do not fixate in your mind the how or what; let the magic of the law of attraction work for you. It may come from a source or way you never imagined. Miracles do happen.

Step 3: Receiving

This is the receiving step. The way you change the way you think, feel and speak can greatly improve your likelihood of receiving that which you desire. Emotions play two key roles in the creative process. First, emotions feed your desire. If you really want something and it makes you feel good, you are more likely to maintain your focus and act when necessary in order to bring the thing or experience to you. Secondly, emotions raise your energy vibration of good or desire. Energy attracts like energy, if you emit strong vibrations of positive energy, the universe or Higher Power will respond with the same in return. Emotions can be heightened and ingrained into your desire by using an acute sense of imagination. The more you focus and imagine your desires with emotions, the more likely you are to receive your wish.

In this part of the exercise, take one of your wishes, what you are asking for and imagine that wish with emotional clarity, using all five senses. It is very important that you really feel what that experience would be like.
1) I wish to spend 3 hours a day, one on one time with my family, playing, laughing and having fun together at the park.
Now imagine yourself in the park, playing with your family and children. Imagine the breeze on your face. Feel your self pushing your children on the swings. Feel the sand in the sand box. Smell the freshly cut grass. Hear the park noises, dogs barking, children laughing, lawn mowers churning. See the park layout in your mind; imagine the tiny details, the blades of grass, the gravel, and the chain links on the swings. Hold onto that thought!

Act as if it is true
Once you have a pretty good idea of exactly what you want, you have let go and have faith in the universe or Higher Power to worry about the how and when, and you have imagined what the desire would look like to every last detail, now; believe as if it has already happened. Once you have your ask list, believe you can have it, believe you deserve it and act as if it already true.
Go out and do what ever you can to put yourself into the feeling place of having it now. For example, it is a new car you are wishing for, go test drive that car and remember that feeling. Do not let go of that feeling until it manifests into your experience.

If it is good health that you are seeking, hold an image of you with a healthy body, imagine every detail, using all five senses. Imagine yourself doing all of the things that you want to do in this healthy body, feel it, feel good and get into the feeling place of having it now. Hold this image as you are walking your dog and feeling good, imagine your healthy body walking your dog every day, for longer and longer distances as your body heals and recovers. Imagine your body replacing the sick and diseased cells with new healthy cells and focus on the final outcome, a health body, one that feels good and can do many things! Hold that image; remember that feeling as often as you can during your day and the act as if it is already true. Use your imagination and believe it!

“Imagination is the highest kite one can fly.”
-Lauren Bacall

If you are feeling that this is all impossible, and are feeling stuck in your current situation or health status and you cannot imagine what it would be like to feel good or health, remember, anything in our universe is possible. You can begin to change your current reality and begin to change your health and your life when you learn, accept and practice the creative process. If you are imagining yourself only in your current situation and health status, and offering your thoughts only on what you are observing, your illness or disease, you will only get more of that. Find a way to focus on what you really want, feel it, imagine it and act as if you already have it. It is up to you to imagine, then co-create it with the universe or Higher Power, just the way you want.

“Nothing is unthinkable, nothing impossible to the balanced person, provided it arises out of the needs to life and is dedicated to life’s further developments.”
-Lewis Mumford

Study and Practice of the Creative Process
Once you decide what you want, stick to it until you have received it. The more detailed and consistent your message the universe is, the faster it will be delivered to you. Let us say you are wishing for the strength and ability to walk with your dog for two full miles. Then a few weeks later, you still cannot walk this distance, your wish has not yet arrived, so you figure that you have asked for too much, or even worse you lose your faith in the process. If you then change your mind to ask for something less, like being able to walk one mile with your dog, or you let thoughts of doubt enter your mind, the universe or Higher Power becomes confused as to what you are really wanting and what to bring to you, or reads your thoughts of doubts, the end result is that the universe or Higher Power will not bring you either one.

“True miracles are created by men where they use the courage and intelligence that God gave them.”
-Jean Anouilh

Guiding Your Emotions: Feel Good!

Humans have feelings, these feelings result from our thoughts. They are a feedback system to tell you if what you are thinking about makes you feel good and is alignment with what you really want. Or, if what you are thinking about makes you feel bad and is not in alignment with what you really want. We have many feelings, so our body designed an Emotional Guidance System to help us understand what we are thinking.

Truly, there are only two emotions that we need to be concerned with. All feelings will fit in one or the other category. One emotion is good; this emotion makes an individual feel good. These are feelings of love, joy, happiness, optimism, passion, faith and hope. These feelings tell us, that what we are thinking is alignment with what we really want. The other emotion is bad; this emotion makes an individual feel bad. These are feelings of anxiety, fear, depression, guilt, envy, anger, rage, hatred, despair, pain. These feelings tell us that what we are thinking is not in alignment with what we really want.

So when you are thinking about what you are attracting, ask yourself, how do you feel? Do you feel good? Then keep thinking those thoughts! If you are feeling bad, then immediately guide your thoughts to an item, object, person, pet or idea that makes you feel good. Do what you can to keep you mind focused on only good feelings. You will then attract only good into your experience. The better you feel, the more in alignment you are with what you really want, the worse you feel, the further you are from what you really want. So do only things and think only things that make you feel good, as your thoughts are creating and forming your future experience.

“All that we are is the result of what we have thought.”
-Buddha

Feel Good Exercise
Everyone needs to have a “feel good place”. When they are having a bad day or bad experience, feeling upset, sad, fearful or doubtful, immediately turn your attention to your “feel good place”. This will raise your body’s vibrations from the lower frequencies to the higher frequencies and bring you into a state of receiving, as opposing to pushing back. Create a “feel good place”, make it detailed so that all five senses are involved. Here is an example, close your eyes, hold the image for at least 30 seconds, or as long as it takes for the good feeling to take over the bad feeling.

Imagine that you are at the beach, it is a hot sunny day, you feel the heat of the sun on your skin, you feel a drip of sweat roll down your back, you walk on the beach feeling every tiny piece of sand on your feet and between your toes. You can smell the ocean, the salt water and the sun tan oil. You are so relaxed and peacefully happy. In the distance you see a dolphin gracefully glide and jump out of the water, doing a summersault for you and only you. You suddenly hear the tropical Caribbean steel drum band playing island music. You reach for your glass and taste the sweet tropical drink. You feel good.

The practice of guiding your feelings and shifting your emotions can transform your life. Stay focused on things and thoughts that make you feel good, do not let anything change your good mood. If you have a bad day or bad thing happen to you, hold strong to your good mood. You will then continue to attract only good experiences, and people that will help you to keep that good mood, bringing you up higher and higher. Whatever your previous thoughts and actions have done in your life and brought around your current situation, such as your condition or disease, it can be undone by learning how to shift your awareness to manifest only health and positive experiences in your life.
“You create your own universe as you go along.”
