Action is not always necessary, and often impossible (depending on your intention).

If everything in your life depended on your personal action, then it must be a very small, limited life indeed.

The belief that your action, and your action alone, is sufficient and necessary for the fulfillment of any of your intentions, limits you to choosing intentions where your action, and your action alone, is sufficient and necessary for their fulfillment.

In truth, there is no "action" that you can take, even to fulfill some ordinary, everyday thing like the growth of your toenails or the digestion of food in your intestines, but it happens anyway.

The Law of Attraction is called the Law of Attraction for a reason - if that reason did not exist, it would be simply called the "Law of Doing".

I do not imply that the "Law of Doing" cannot lead to the accomplishment of great things. But I do say that the Law of Attraction is something more than the Law of Doing.

Action, or doing, is perfectly fine if you are happy to perform the action or doing, and if it does not have any adverse consequences, such as causing you anxiety, exhaustion or stress, or consuming personal resources (such as time and energy) which you would rather utilise elsewhere.
