Law of Attraction Basics

A Beginner's Guide to Turning Your Dreams Into Reality

Do you have a firm understanding of the law of attraction basics? There are a few key elements of the manifesting process that you absolutely must master if you want to be certain of turning your dreams into reality.

When you get good at these law of attraction basics, you will be well on your way to creating a life of your own design.

Law of Attraction Basics - Choosing Your Dream

Deciding what you want. If you could be anything, do anything, or have anything, what would you choose? What would you attract into your life? What would your life look like? Where would you live? What would you do for work? What would you do for fun? Who would you share your life with?

Choosing which of your many dreams to manifest is an important first step in making that dream a reality, but you have to choose carefully! If you don't get this step right you will be setting yourself up for unnecessary struggle down the road.

Here are 3 things to keep in mind when deciding what to manifest:

1. You have to REALLY want it. Not just wish that it would happen. You have to want it. You have to desire it. Wishes have no power, but wanting or desiring something will allow you to tap into your true manifesting ability.

2. You must have a strong reason WHY you want this dream. Why do you want to achieve this dream? When you are clear about the reasons why you want something you will be more willing to do what it takes to make it happen. You will be more willing to put in the maximum effort, to go the extra mile!

3. You have to know EXACTLY what you want. This is important, and is where many, many law of attraction fans get stuck. It's not enough to simply want a better life, you have to know exactly what that better life looks like. The more specific you are about the details of what you are seeking to manifest the better! Any details that you leave out are being left up to chance. You may or may not get what you want.

Double check each of your dreams against this list to be certain that you are using your full manifesting power. Be sure that you really want it, that you have a strong reason why you want it, and that you are crystal clear about the details of what you desire, that you know exactly what you want.

Choosing to Have a Great Day

What kind of day are you having? Is it a GREAT day?

Every day can be a great day, if you decide it will be a great day. Every day can be a great day if you decide ahead of time that it will be a great day - in spite of whatever curve balls life throws at you, in spite of whatever challenges show up, and in spite of what anyone else says or thinks or does!

This is probably the most powerful lesson in the law of attraction and while it is a basic one, it transcends all of your other goals and dreams, and will affect every effort at manifesting that you make.

Let me tell you why.

In my workshops and seminars, I spend a lot of time helping folks just like you understand how to apply these principles in their lives, and I have seen first hand how easy it is to get stuck or to feel like you just aren't getting anywhere.

The solution always turns out to be the same. You have to 'decide' to be happy, you have to 'decide' to be motivated, you have to 'decide' that your dream is worth pursuing.

This basic law of attraction principle touches on so many aspects of your success that it is unbelievable. Your decision about the quality of your day coming up is critical to you actually having a great day. You see, you have to decide to have a great day before you can actually have a great day.

I'm sure it has. Do you want to prevent it from happening again? Then keep reading.

Deciding to React

Nothing in your life happens without you having a REACTION to it. Good, bad, or indifferent, you react to every person, thing, and situation that you encounter during your day. Now, you will hear a lot of talk about acting vs. reacting, and how you want to avoid reacting because that is what got you into trouble in the first place. That's only half true. Yes, reacting did get you into trouble, but you can never avoid reacting to your environment.

It is true that some of your reactions, or your pre-conditioned responses, might have led you in a direction that you didn't want, but you can change that by changing your pre-conditioned responses using affirmations or something similar. What you can't do, is to stop reacting.

How you see or feel about a particular situation in your life will determine which set of pre-conditioned responses you pull out when something happens during your day. You have one set of responses that you use when you are happy, another when you are angry, another when you are depressed, and so on.

The same event can happen, the same opportunity can present itself, but your reaction will be different depending upon your mindset, won't it? This is powerful, this is where getting good at the law of attraction basics will help you create the changes you desire.

Nothing in your life will change or get better until YOU DECIDE it will be so. Your conscious decision to make a change is what sets the manifesting process into motion. Now, there are a lot of other things going on that can effect your results down the road, but this is where it starts. Deciding to change.

You see, it doesn't matter if you are talking about the law of attraction, or about Mary Jo's Manifesting Course, or about Gary the Guru's Guide to Enlightenment, no process or formula for success has any chance of working until you DECIDE to work it.

Get good at deciding, get good at deciding how to react to the situations in your life and you will unlock a whole new world of opportunity for yourself.
