Sales Moves: The law of attraction, or the law of hard work? You ... - Eagle Tribune
Many people misunderstand the movie/book The Secret to mean that there is no action required. I'm not sure how they get that...
Quite literally in the movie you are told sometimes what you attract is an inspiration, a great idea that you need to implement. Remember Jack Canfield? Yes he did lots of exercises, but he also wrote a book and came up with a way to market it. He was open to the Universe bringing him the idea and the people he would need to make that a reality.
Coming from your true self and being in harmony with what you want is critical. And for some perhaps it is all they need. Most of us do need to take action--but if we are in harmony the actions will seem easier. If you feel like you are "pushing rope" then you know you are not in harmony with what you want!
Read the following article by Jeffrey Gitomer. He has an interesting perspective on this. I encourage you to work at what you want, be open to the Universe, and to remember, as he closes with "you have a choice"...that is what makes all the difference!

Frustration, Questions Follow in Wake of Law of Attraction Popularity - PR Web (press release)
I listen to at least one teacher on the Law of Attraction or the other great laws of the universe just about every day.
I found the Law of Attraction was working really well for me today...I was listening to scientist Greg Braden this morning and then I found the interesting article below.
The article mentions people feeling like LoA is not working. I don't know about the book referenced in the article, but I have heard many, many teachers comment on just saying affirmations or thinking positive thoughts is not enough.
What I got this morning from Greg Braden was a wonderful visual...imagine the 7 chakras. The top 3 relate to our thoughts. The bottom three, our emotions. It is by filling our thoughts with the power of the emotions that we actually see results--through the 7th chakra, our heart.
So if you are saying empty affirmations you will not see the results. If you are negating your affirmations by having negative emotions then you will not see the results you "think" you want. It is by having our emotions in harmony with our thoughts that we are in the pure state of allowing.

Trust the Big Picture
Here is a great visual image from Alan Cohen
Remember the Law of Polarity--everything has it's opposite. For every good there is a bad, for every bad there is a good.
Choose to find the good that comes out of what appears to be a bad.
That is YOU applying the stroke of vertical awareness. Then truly everything you touch will be a success.
Everything that is a minus (or negative)
Is the beginning of a plus
Waiting for a stroke of vertical awareness.

Is Law of Attraction Enough?
Not according to Brian Tracy.
The Law of Attraction is just one of the laws of the universe. It is a powerful law and it is necessary, but it is not the ONLY law and by itself it is not enough.
Brian saws there are 7 laws that all interact and affect our lives -- and that we put into motion every day whether we realize it or not.
Other great teaches have also said there are 7 laws. Bob Proctor, Wallace Wattles, and many others. Sometimes the names of the laws are different, but they are all pretty much the same in content.
One of the most important things to realize is just how important you mental attitude is towards success. How you put the laws into motion. Are you being positive and therefore attracting positive things, events and people into your life? Or are you being negative and therefore attracting negative things, events and people into your life?
Do you look at the events that happen and seek to learn from them and "spin" them into positive, even if superficially they might appear to be negative? Or do you wallow in your misfortune?
What choices are you making in your life?
What actions are you taking?
Action is crucial to achieving anything. You can think positively but for most of us ACTION will be required. Brian Tracy says being action oriented is one of the most important habits you can develop. A friend of mine, Erik Stafford AKA The Faster Webmaster, calls this the Law of Action.
(A little side note and plug for Erik-- Erik is awesome at taking action -- and if you want to know how to build a website, talk to him--go to his website to learn more...he can take even a raw, raw, newbie through the steps.)
Don't know how to do something? That's okay. Be open and you will find or learn the way. You will take action that proves you believe in it and the teachers or books or DVDs or...(you get the picture) that you need right then WILL come to you.
Success is 80% mental and only 20% technical. The 20% is necessary, but it is built on the 80%.

Hell Yes! or Hell No!
I have been struggling with whether or not I should do something (a specific thing...not just any ol' thing!) This thing is a good thing, has value, is probably a great opportunity...but for some reason I was hesitating.
I've been mulling this over in my mind...am I hesitating out of fear? What is going on...I respect the people involved...
Then this morning, "for no reason" (AKA Law of Attraction!) I pulled out some notes from a talk that Alan Cohen gave over a year ago.
When I read Alan's words and I got my answer:
That is when I realized my biggest issue right now is TIME. I don't have TIME for everything I WANT to do. Maybe I have already been jumping at too many "Hell No!s" and I deserve to recognize when something is not a "Hell Yes!" and not jump at that, too!
Alan also reminded me that every leap of faith requires an action step, so when you respond to the Hell Yes! do the one thing that would signify that you truly believe in it!
I reserve the right to revisit this "thing" in the future. At that point perhaps it will be the right time for me to join in. For now I have new confidence that it is not. So I will take action on the things I'm already doing--and show my belief in them. And if I find that some of them are Hell No's I will have the courage to take the action of disengaging from them, too!

If you jump at all the "Hell No!s"
