The movie ‘The Secret’ took the world by storm three years ago now. Can you remember your first viewing of it? For many people it was a highly memorable occasion and for some, life changing. Many people after their intial viewing of ‘The Secret’ experienced a surge in hope and optimism after the first viewing of the movie. 

Disappointingly for many however was their inability to transfer that intial burst of enthusiasm and energy into an actual real sustained assault on using the law of attraction in everyday life.
 
The majority of people can not make the secret and the law of attraction work for them particulalry after just a couple of attempts. If that is a bit like you then there is no need to be sad. It is a slow and gradual process just like learning any new skill is, you don’t quit at the first indicator of a bit of hardwork or after the first mistake, you learn from the error and progress. If it’s not working for you right now then maybe it is that you just need some more practice.

I realise that may sound a touch patronising, to say, ‘be positive’, ‘do not give up’ and so on, particularly when the state of the planet today leads us to think more of failures than successess, what with the state of the world economy, natural disasters and mindless acts of violence that we so often read about these days. 

Of course if your thoughts and feeling are reflecting these bad times then that is what you are going to draw towards you. So, what exactly is the answer? How can I be sure that I am making the secret, positive thinking and the law of attraction work in my favout even after all of this time?

Well, here are a few tips as to how to do so:

1. Stop, stopping yourself from receiving. Yes ,of course that sounds a little odd, I mean why would you purposefully prevent yourself from getting something that they wanted? Have a little think on this scenario: a young child is asking for directions from a policeman:

“Excuse me officer, would you mind giving me directions to xyz building?can you, can you, please, would it be possible if, you, please would you mind telling me, which way is it to, please…”

What is happening here is that there is no shortage of asking but unless the child keeps quiet and allows the officer to respond then they are not going to get an answer, ever!Then they subsequently will possibly feel despondent turn around and not allow the officer a chance to respond when all the time he was prepared to tell you exactly what you needed to know!

So, you may well be asking for your desires but are you allowing the universe to communicate back with you and giving it a chance to repond to you. You may receive a nudge of what to do in any manner of different ways, these you have to be ready and opene minded enough to see and interpret, they could come in the form of a headline in a newspaper, an inspiring story from someone, a verse from a poem the words in a song or whaetever. For now don’t try too hard, simply be happy that you have put your desires out there.

2. Patience. The world around us can seem to be one big amazing miracle at times. Huge towering mountains, ridiculously advanced technology and so on but none of those things came into existence overnight. The world has certain laws that all things must abide with. Using the secret isn’t going to alter them, it can only allow them to work in your direction for a change. So if you desire something don’t expect too much to soon give it time to go through a process of development and be patient!

Progressing patiently means that can you to enjoy the ride on the way to the attainment of your desires and goals and stops you giving up because of frustration.
 
3. Educate yourself in order to fulfill your role. Don’t view the secret and law of attraction as express delivery packages, as already said this is not the case but do think how you can accelerate the process. What course of action is available to you that can help you reach your desired goals. Occassionally this will come to you via education of yourself from courses, guides, coaches but the main thing is to ensure you do your part.

Like an infant trying to take their first steps, you have to do it yourself but you will get there a lot quicker if you can observe someone else who has achieved success. Mix with those who have got what it is you want which will allow you to create a more accurate mental picture of how you to can reach that goal and what it is exactly that you want.

So rather than using the law of attraction, positive thinking and the secret as some unique magic wand, treat it as a simple effective process that you have to go through in order to obtain your desires. See it from this angle and you will achieve it a lot faster. Use the power of positive thinking as muchas you can.
