    I know very few people, if any, will watch the Secret over and over again. It takes so much discipline and so I have spent about 10 hours stopping and starting the DVD and writing most of it down word for word so that it isn't watered down. I got up at 5a.m. and have been typing it out most of the day.:eek: I know I'm slow at typing!!:D I'm not trying to be a martyr here, devoting all these hours! hehe I,ve actually learned soooo much whilst I've been doing this. I feel like I produced the film!!! Seriously it's a brilliant 10 to 20 minute read at bedtime or whenever. I think it will help you tremendously without the need to put yourself under pressure. Anyway I am going to put it in a word document for anyone who would like to make use of it. I highly recommend also watching the Secret at least once. Hope this helps, happiness and joy to you :) :) :)

    is there really a law like that?

    i don't want to wear a bracelet like the one that jack canfield wears. I’m really sorry to say this to you folks, but most people who became rich talking about the power of attraction seem to be really cheesy, or commercial (aka not honest)... like a car saler or something. I don’t see people like writers or real scientists or someone who has a real valour to talk about this process. I believe we get what we give, most of the time. And the most important is to be (or try to be) a good human.

    Thanks anyway Pollyanna.

    PS - Did you get all that you want with the secret?

    earth can be a paradise

    :cool:Plus…if that law is hearing peoples wishes about getting rich. And its letting innocent children die or get sexually abused, only because they are not aware of that law, maybe its not such a good thing anyway. That’s why I think it’s better to focus on being good and making this a better planet, than focus on being rich or some other selfish wish. If we all do this, Earth will be a paradise pretty soon. Love for you all. :cool::D:eek:

    I understand what you're saying Pmaia, but I also got to say that you haven't really comprehended the whole law of attraction thing.

    You have to touch into spiritual aspect. The law of attraction also mentions recarnation process and how your thoughts before you are born influcence what you might receive as a child. It goes a little bit against my spiritual belief, but mostly it goes along. And I leave spaces where I am yet to comprehend.

    I have tried this method in Japan which I learned from my Yoga teacher way before I encoutered the phrase "law of attraction" in U.S. And it kind of clicked, like, oh this is what it was about. You don't have to believe in this, and other ways of seeing things work totally the same if you ask me (i.e., if you listened to Joel Osteen, the Christian preacher, he recommends the almost same tactics, just in the name of Jesus).

    I say, just try it. I didn't really believe in it either until my friends manifested things and I manifested things myself.

    And, no, I haven't achieved everything I wish for. But what is life for if we could get everything we wish for in instance? According to my spiritual belief, that's what happens when you go up there. But in this world, we are meant to struggle to achieve what we want, and there is growth within the process. So I would take the steps light hearted. I have manifested some things, and I want to be better at it. I am hoping that meditation will do a part.

    By the way, various books on law of attraction mention that being rich is not selfish, because there are abundance in this world and you don't take something away from other people for you to get rich. You can be rich and be able to treat your family and friends all the time, regularly donate tons of money to good charities and so on. Some book (i.e., the one titiled "creative visualization") said that until you take those misunderstood guilt away from you, it would be difficult for you to manifest things.

    I also encountered this idea from one of the people who appeared on Secret (Marci someone, sorry can't remember from top of my head, i'll spell it correctly if anyone wishes): The best use of law of attraction is to attract the feeling of happiness. This author who achieved everything you could hope for through law of attraction found herself still not completely happy, and she realized that best of law of attaction is to attract happiness itself. Then, she states, you can become "happy without a reason." I really like that idea. Those of you who read my comment this far, would you mind sharing your ideas on that?

    Thanks to all of you who contribute to these discussions!

    Love

    Please allow me to comment one more... this may be different from law of attraction itself, but well, a bit related since it mentioned the carnation theory a little. (In Hickily books, probably I misspelled, sorry)

    What if you lived on this earth 1000s of times already? What if a person decides and says, "hey this time I want to try and live a very disturbing childhood and see if I can rebound in the later life!"? One of the people who preach Spirituailty, said, "Thanks to those people who kill you, you get to understand what it is like to get killed." :)

    ...Maybe a bit disturbing. Sorry if it disturbed you.

    Law of Attraction

    Hi folks,

    Just read the thread on the LOA. I found the film "The Secret" to be wonderful in providing a big picture of the LOA with few details on how to put it to work in a manner that worked for me.

    Shortly after seeing the film I injured my knee at a roller skating birthday party for my younger son and was laid up for some weeks. I started doing research on both the film and the "law". I came across lots of neat stuff. By far the most comprehensive and full bodied piece of information is by a woman Esther Hicks. She channels an entity that calls itself Abraham. Their website is Abraham-Hicks.com. I have combined my meditation with reading and doing exercises from her books and am feeling wonderful. I hope that mentioning their website does not run afoul of any expected conduct on this website, my intention is to spread the word of something that I value highly. Enjoy!

    Patrick

    Hi Patricia, I think it all depends what we call rich. I don,t believe you need to be a scientist to prove something and anyone can have courage if they care enough. Having left my terraced home because of cruelty from my husband, I brought my two children up alone in Ashfield Valley Flats, Rochdale, which I called cell block 44. I utilized one bedroom as a park because it was too dangerous to play out there. It took a long time to escape from there. I always tried to be optimistic but knew nothing of what is termed as "The Law of attraction" unfortunately. Many years later I stumbled upon "Think and grow rich" by Napoleon Hill and created the following:-

    click here

    Instead of a prison cell in a dangerous place, I have created an incredible dream for and with all my family. To-day we have walked around our lake, my grandchildren dropped off a flask of coffee and some breakfast to my husband who is fishing, then we all walked into the forest and saw 2 deer and a squirrel. We have temporarily gone down to two cars instead of 4 and two mobile phones for the cars instead of 7. All nine of us (from age 4 to age 63) went down to a village dinner dance last night and came home at 1:30 a.m. There were about 300 people, all local families and although there was alcohol being consumed there was no trouble or drunkenness. I have created everything I want for myself and my future generations through the power I believe we all possess and more importantly the valuable lessons we have learned and who we have become is amazing!! Living within the beauty of nature and in a safe environment is heaven to me and wonderful to share with others. I honestly believe it would be extremely selfish to keep this information from others. This is a wonderful community to share this knowledge because Lifeflow meditation will be a great tool to help people achieve their goals and dreams, whatever they may be. Happiness and joy :) :) :)

    pmaia I totally understand what you mean.

    There isnt any kind of "law" (as in, a sciences "law"... E=MC2...)

    What all this concept comes down too is simply changing your own perspective on the world. Life is what we make of it...so to be honest this isnt some kind of seceret. I am pretty young but have known this whole my life. And no, I dont need this to be a spirtual thing. Its as simple as setting a goal and adjusting your mind/brain to that goal :)

    Your very special

    Dear Pollyana your very special and kind. I have meditated every day for nearly 2 weeks now and I feel so happy and hopeful and my husband says I am happier to. I read the atachment you wrote out from the secret and I am very excited because I can understand myself more. I worry most of the time so I must stop it and I will. What you have done for your family is fantastic. Please can you tell me were can I buy the film so me and my family can watch it. God bless you Beth. x

    Thanks a million!!!

    Thanks a million for all your responses!!! I gained so much by taking the time to write it out for everyone and I'm so glad you will make good use of it. I think by reading it over and over, different suggestions will make sense and sink in at different times. We're all special and we all deserve to be happy. Life is for LIVING, LOVING, CARING AND SHARING and this wonderful community that Michael has created is the perfect environment! So many people helping each other with their inspiring stories is wonderful. Happiness and joy :) :) :)

    P.S. Beth you can buy the Secret on the internet.

    It makes good sense

    I read it all (no speed reading) and I loved it. As I read I saw that every thing that was said about negative thinking was so true. Even down to the surgery that the Doctor messed up and gave me this monster. I was so worried about it before I had the surgery, after the surgery (before we know he had messed it up so bad) He told me that even under anaesthesia I keep pulling my hand away from him so he had to put me under even more.
    I have a list going now with ever thing I want to happen (Is going to happen). That way when I am thinking negative I just pull up my list and it makes me happy just to think that way It will take a lot of rethinking from the way I think now, but I am going to work at it really hard.

    Thank you so much this site is a GOD sent to me
    Thank you
    BeSassie

    Hi everybody!

    All your comments were very helpful to me. I'm still not sure of attraction as a universal law but for sure keeping a positive mind and attitude is beneficial for us all. I have been really curious with this attraction theories but I still have some difficulties accepting that when innocent people have violence or poverty in their lives is because they attract it. Anyway, I’m starting to use law of attraction and let’s just see what happens. :rolleyes:

    PS – Pollyanna you story is really inspiring. Congratulations for your courage and for sharing so many things with us.

    Hi Patricia, thanks for your kind words. I understand your thoughts for innocent little children and there are so many mysteries that I don't know the answer to. Many years ago I decided to watch the news probably once a month to keep informed and be aware of what is going on in general. My family have respected and now agree with the fact that I will not have a newspaper or the type of magazine in my home that sells because it's full of scandal, gossip, bad news and lies. I personally think it's depressing and creates negative thinking. I offer what help I can and accept now that I can only do my little bit to help ease suffering but I do have some bigger goals for the future.
    One of the reasons I love this community is because Michael's courses can help parents and piers become less stressed and have more patience with children, enabling them to grow up with greater confidence and not having to suppress emotions the way many people have until now. I believe we all owe this to our children and future generations. I truly believe this community of wonderful people can help themselves initially and then together make a huge difference in the world. Happiness and joy :) :) :)

    Cannot remember if this DVD has been mentioned before or not. I watched "What the bleep do we know" for the second time last night. It's about 18 months since I watched it. Wow, it's really good. :) I understood it a lot more this time, but probably not as much as I'll understand it in another 12 months or so. I hope? :eek:

    a lot of thanks pollyana ;-)

    hello,:)

    i've been reading your posts everytime i log to this community and know what, i am very thankul that god has created a very, very nice person like you who keeps on inspiring us here in the community..

    Just a while ago, i have read your thread about the law of attraction (and i downloaded it, and would plan to read it later since i just would like to thank you first, really for i am so happy finding you, and other people like you in this community), and your story, they are so inspiring, you are giving me hope for i too is currently under crisis, emotional, spiritual, financial, name it... i wanted to have these negative forces remove from my system...

    i stumbed across this site while i was searching for a cure or rather ways on how i could remove my fear/nervousness. i always feel afraid of expressing out my inner feelings, and a kind of person who do not usually feel comfortable and is afraid to talk/speak to other people. specially, public speaking is a big no no for me. I would experience then some worry, fear of rejection, panick attacks, if thats what they call it..unable to concentrate, can't speak well, and what's so shameful is the trembling. oh, how i hate it, that is why i avoid situations which would activate fear from my system. some may think of this as funny, but for me, its an agony i've been struggling for years. Thinking that this is an abnormality, that can't be healed, i feel disgusted and hate for my self.I am working now and i could see its big effect...it limits me from doing and achieving things that i've been dreaming of.

    i wanted to end this and i thank God for leading me directly to this site, meeting beautiful people like you, and everyone here in this community, and to michael of course for sharing what he had learned, and who is vey much willing and kind to help people like me. i pray that this meditation with your help and guidance too would bring a big difference in my life, as what it had done to Pollyana's and to others..


    i pray that more people would find this site too..
    love you all,
    grace
