The Law of Attraction is fine and dandy... however, without action... it is dead...

Let me tell you about the RAS (Reticulo-Activating System)

Every instant… our brain is bombarded with hundreds of stimulus or input… like… the temperature, the ambient noises, everything that is in our field of vision etc…

Now, if the brain was conscious of all these stimulus (input) it would go in overload in no time… and we would go banana…

Now, there is a mechanism in the brain called the RAS… which is a filter that let certain stimulus reach the conscious and blocks others… mainly, it will allow those inputs in which we are interested in and block those that do not interest us…

As an example… if you are hungry while driving down main street… you’ll see food outlets everywhere… but you may not notice gas stations or other shops and boutiques…

So, when, through the Law of Attraction, you focus on certain things, the RAS will bring to your conscious the opportunities that could open up for you to reach those objectives…

However, if you rely on the Law of Attraction alone… and do not add action to it… what you are actually doing is wishful thinking… and wasting your time…
