In my last article on The #1 Mistake People Make When Using the Law of Attraction, I stated that every intention has a content component plus an energy component, and both are equally important when it comes to applying the Law of Attraction.  At the end of that article, I asserted that the energy component of every […]

Whenever you form an intention, that intention has two primary components.  The first component is the content of the intention.  The content is the information part of your desire.  It’s whatever you decide you want, such as a new career, a better relationship, or an extra $10,000.  That part is pretty straightforward.
The second component of an intention is the energy […]

I’m delighted to present this exclusive interview with James Ray, President and CEO of the multi-million dollar corporation James Ray International and cast member of the increasingly popular movie The Secret.
Last week James shared his insights on the Law of Attraction on The Oprah Winfrey Show, and previously he appeared on Larry King Live with other cast members of The Secret.  […]

This evening I was organizing some files on my computer, and I found a transcript of an old channeling session I did on the subject of desire.  I read through it and saw that it was an interesting take on the Law of Attraction, so I figured I’d share it.
Channeling is similar to automatic writing, except that […]

Gratitude equals wealth.  Wealth equals gratitude.  You’ve probably heard one of those expressions before… or at least something similar.  Certainly the connection seems true on an internal, emotional level.  It’s hard to imagine feeling wealthy without also being grateful.  And if you’re truly grateful, you probably feel wealthy as well, regardless of your actual circumstances.
Because of this apparent connection […]

One thing that holds a lot of people back from becoming wealthy is the fear that their lives will actually become worse in some ways.
There is in fact a dark side to financial abundance, but it isn’t pitch black.
Here are some items that might genuinely concern you if you dramatically increase your income or net worth:

In 1998 I had an experience that had a deep and lasting effect on me.  Erin and I were eating lunch at a local soup and salad place, and I noticed a woman cleaning the tables nearby.  She looked very sad and depressed, as if she’d just been chastised by her supervisor or had gotten some bad news.
Erin and I didn’t […]

Suppose you set a positive intention, focus your energy on its manifestation for the highest good of all, see the promising alpha reflection, and then watch your results completely stagnate.  Why did your intention fail to manifest as quickly as you desired?
Whenever this happens the root cause is that you failed to become a vibrational match for your intentions.  […]

A common question I get about intention-manifestation is something along these lines:  How come when I wholeheartedly intend X to happen, I still get the opposite of X?
For example…  How come when I intend wealth, I’m still poor?  How come when I intend a new relationship, I’m still alone?  How come when I intend a new career, I’m still […]

A reader sent me a link to a wonderful story by Dr. Joe Vitale about a doctor who heals patients in a very unique way.  This doctor never actually sees his patients.  He heals them by healing the part of himself that created them – a real life subjective reality healer.
Here’s a short passage from the […]
