Lesson 3: Attracting Your Desires

When you put the information from this module in the context of everything else we’ve already talked about, you can start to see how this entire process stacks up.

Remember: most people go through their life focused on the physical, which means they’re looking at the things that are or are not present in front of them. More often than not, this means they’re looking at the absence of their desire, which keeps them stuck. So long as you continue to focus on the fact that the thing that you want is not yet present to you, you keep your energy (your vibration) down.

This keeps you away from experiencing the desire you want, and you reinforce lack. You reinforce the absence of everything you want.

This is why the shift in perspective to energy is so fundamental, because when you can shift your energy to the feeling of the desire, the desire has to show itself to you. You have to experience it, because you hold the energy of it.

An Impartial Law

As you begin to put these different puzzle pieces together, you can start to realize that The Law of Attraction is impartial. It is a mechanical force that operates however you use, both for the good and the bad.

It doesn’t know the difference between what you want and what you don’t want. It only knows the energy that you hold. It can only bring you corresponding energy for your dominant state of being.

The way this often plays out for a lot of people is that when they start to play with LOA and start to apply it to their lives they don’t see the results they expect. Then they think The Law of Attraction doesn’t work. They don’t realize that the law is working, it just isn’t working the way they think it’s working.

For example, someone might try to relieve financial pressure by attempting to manifest a million dollars in a week, or they might try to cure a chronic health issue in the span of a couple of weeks. Even though they direct their thought to it and begin to focus on it and try to improve their vibration about it, they don’t realize they have decades of negative energy and resistance going up against them, and that it’s unlikely they’d be able to clear that resistance in such a short span of time. Thus they see The Law of Attraction “not working,” but in actuality it’s bringing them exactly the energy that they hold, they’re just not fully aware of how to control their energy quite yet.

No Big or Small Aims

Once you realize that The Law of Attraction is impartial and operates consistently as a mechanical force, you can also begin to understand that there are no big or small aims. The Law of Attraction does not know whether something that you want is “realistic” or not, whether it’s “hard” or not. It only knows the energy that you hold about it.

If you believe that something is a big deal, that it’s going to be hard, challenging, and take a long time, that is the energy you hold, and thus it’s the energy that you’ll see reflected in your physical circumstances. Thus the thing you want to achieve will be hard, it’ll be challenging, and it’ll take a long time. On the other hand, if you believe it’ll be easy, it will come really easily for you.

You can leverage this fact by beginning to pay attention to the things that you want in relation to how you feel they might come about. Do you feel like they’re going to come easily, or do you feel like they’re going to be difficult? Whatever belief you hold about it, that’s the experience that you’ll have as you go about trying to manifest it.

Exercise: Easy and Hard are Self-Reinforcing

In order to drive this point home I want you to take a few minutes to reflect ton how this concept applies to your own skills and abilities.

I want you to create a list of a couple of things that you’re really good at and that you believe and know you’re really good at, along with a couple of things you’re really bad at, with which you always struggle and have to try really hard to do.

Then, I want you to look over the list and think back on how every example in your life follows the belief you hold about each item on the list. The things you believe will come easy for you, always come easily for you. The things you believe will be challenging or that you’re not good at, always take that form.

I think that this is easy to see when you compare it to a close friend. I think probably everyone has had an experience where they’re good at one thing and bad at another, while a friend is exactly the opposite. If not a friend, maybe a coworker or the way a team has been put together.

It isn’t that one person is intrinsically smarter or better than the other, it’s just that they hold different beliefs about the way in which they operate. They have different understandings about how those beliefs will come into play.

As you reflect on this, you can start to realize that there are no realistic or unrealistic aims, just as there are no fixed abilities or inabilities. You can start to see how your beliefs then shape what is or is not possible for you in your life.
