Default I would LOVE to hear your stories about Law of Attraction

Hi Everyone! I am new to this forum - it looks fantastic and I really want to introduce myself and tell you all about something i'm visualising right now! Here goes...

I’m putting together a book about how ordinary people have made extraordinary changes to their lives by embracing the law of attraction. I’m asking for people to email me their stories, however big or small, of how the ‘Law of Attraction’ has positively impacted their life and others around them. Proceeds from the book will be donated to charity.

I have set up a site which explains in more detail what I am trying to do:
The Secret Changed My Life

What do you think? A fun idea?

So far people have emailed me some great stories – always scoring parking spaces, lottery wins, property deals, meeting business partners, meeting their soulmate and lots more.

I would love to hear from you with your own story. It’s a great cause and I’d love to help spread the word about how positive thought can improve all our lives, whilst at the same time raising a fair bit for charity!

Thanks very much for taking the time to read this. I really appreciate it. I can be contacted anytime at thesecretstories@gmail.com

Kindest regards and best wishes,

Chloe
The Secret Changed My Life

Story of my glasses goes like this:
I drove my car to work and I felt frustrated about my bad eyesight. I used to wear glasses, but I stopped using them when I entered college because I thought they were 'uncool'. I had become used to not wearing them, but now the frustration about not being able to read the road signs had become big enough to really want glasses again.

The thought of getting new glasses was discouraging though. I'm not good at organizing things. I'm an INTP and I have ADD. To get new glasses I would have to go to an optometrist for an eye test. I didn't know where one lived, so I would have to look it up, make an appointment, and probably take a half-day off from work for the consultation. Then I would have to find a good shop where they sell glasses, and go through the difficult process of choosing glasses.

I was learning about the law of attraction at that time. I decided to give it a try and not to think about all unpleasant stuff. Instead I imagined how great it would be to see sharp again. I imagined driving and being able to read all the signs easily. That was a very pleasant thought.

I decided not to take any action unless I felt inspired to take action. Just like it is recommended in the Abraham Hicks teachings.

One Saturday I walked though my city and I passed a store where they sell glasses. There was a sign about a promotion. You could buy a pair of glasses for only 100 EUR. Plus a free eye test.

The next week I entered the store. I was helped by a very kind woman. She took an eye test and she helped me to choose a pair of glasses that looked really good on me.

Now I have glasses and everybody likes them, including me :-)

It's simple really. This doesn't look like a miracle and a skeptic person could label this story to be a combination coincidence and selective perception. I could agree with that. But the thing is that when I am applying the law of attraction that all these 'coincidences' seem to happen a lot more than when I don't.

I find that when I am applying the law of attraction, that a lot of little things turn out to be in my advantage. All these little fun moments make up for a great life experience.

Thank you so much for that Dolazy!! What a great story!! And your final statement is so true - the coincedences seem to happen a whole lot more.

Can I ask you what INTP means? Sorry, i'm probably dumb!

Also, when I publish the stories I would like to be able to publish your first name and your location in the world - state/city. You can email me with this (thesecretstories@gmail.com) or post on this thread or of course, remain entirely anonymous, whichever you prefer. THANK YOU!!!!

May you attract more greatness into your life

Way back when I was first committed to Steve's Million Dollar Experiment, I kept finding loads of spare change just lying around. So I totalled 9 dollars in spare change. Then I stop committing to the experiment and I had no more spare change. Usually I don't find spare change much, so finding 9 dollars worth of it over a few days is pretty surprising in my books.

Default Thanks so far guys...keep them coming!

BIG thank you to everyone who has so far taken 5 mins out their day to email me with their amazing stories!! I have over 50 stories now but need more like 150-200.

Have you seen 'The Secret' movie or read the book?
  • Are you incorporating 'The Secret' into your daily life?
  • How has using the law of attraction changed your life?
  • Has it helped you to lose weight?
  • Has it brought you wealth?
  • Have you followed your passion or found your dream job?
  • Do you use the law of attraction to improve your relationship with your partner, friends or family?
  • Since creating your visualisation board have your desires manifested themselves?!
  • Do you have an great 'Secret' story which you can share with me?

If so I want to hear from you! Only send me your stories if you are happy to see your story in print - if you are happy for me to publish your stories as part of a book to inspire others, with the proceeds going to charity (well, who wouldn't want to be a part of this?!) then email me at thesecretstories@gmail.com. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Not everybody here learned of the Law of attraction through the secret.

I would be happy to tell you my story when it manifests, but I learned about the Law of Attraction months before I had heard of the Secret.

Default Sorry!

Sorry - I didn't mean to offend anybody - obviously the fairly recent release of 'The Secret' is just a re-packaged version of the law of attraction which people have been talking about for centuries.

I tend to call the LOA 'The Secret' automatically, without actually meaning the book/dvd by Rhonda Byrne...the reason being that for me, the LOA is the secret to life. I only wish I had been taught it at school.

I would love to hear your stories of intention-manifestation/LOA. And again, I didn't intend to offend anyone. I understand that to the vast majority of this forum 'The Secret' book/dvd is nothing new to you.

Just generally - not just as a result of watching The Secret. Just general stories about ordinary people making extraordinary changes to their lives by living through the law of attraction. Your intention sounds exciting! Good luck with it (not that you need luck!)

Default LOA works great for me

Hi

About a year ago I decided to go for it and go head on in trying this.
I did all the necessary visualization techniques and also got this subliminal program that flashes affirmations on my screen while I work. This was 3 months before i was to get married and needed some cash for our honeymoon.
I visualized and flashed 20 grand which was allot for me cause I am kinda of an average guy. I did not even believe that it would work but kept doing the techniques daily.

One month later out of nowhere I received a call of an old friend and the first thing she said to me was that she is so sorry, but unfortunately they only had 20 grand to pay me for a job they needed me to to for TV. WTF! I was shocked! I did not even lift a finger. just did the techniques, without even believing in it.

I want to add that after much testing, I found that for the Law to work we need to be specific. You see i visualized 20 grand but also in my case for 3D rendering. If you only ask for money but not in what, the Law may not work.

The second important thing is the emotion that you attach. Without it the Law will definitely not work!

Well, they had to start somewhere. Since "The Secret" so many books & dvd's have been released and of course discussions like these, to help simplify the proses. I have read a few books, Bob Proctor, Napoleon Hill are the most memorable. The subliminal flash program that I use to put my affirmations directly into my subconscious really help speed up the manifesting. I find that excitement is also a really importatnt factor to manifesting a lot quicker.

When I first heard it, I thought it was hogwash, in honesty. Human beings can get anything we want at anytime, we don't necessarily have to wish for them. But now I'm not so sure.

I think that it makes some sense, in that a positive attitude is needed for a healthy life. However, it cannot be truly proven to exist, since thoughts and emotions cannot be measured. Nobody can prove to others that they received xyz since they desired it/asked the Universe for it.

That said, other past few months I have desired both a smartphone and a laptop computer, and I received both a short while ago. So I think there is a lot of truth in it.

It's crazy. I don't know the various inns and out of LOA, still to this day a sceptic even though I have more than enough evidence of it working in my life.

So I think about what I want. My intentions start out as a small wish, something that would be kinda cool. I think about it some more, over time, every day, often. At some point after a while of thinking about it, I begin feeling good when I think about it. And the more ofthen I think about it the better I feel and as the days pass, the more intense the feeling gets when I think about it. Consiquently, this desire gets stored in the subconscious mind, and as we all know, the subconscious mind has the same thought about 60 000 times a day running on repeat. That's a lot of virbation.

Now, as this happens, it really feels like some sort of magic is happening. And people, places, situations, circumstanses, oppertunity etc starts happening.

I've attracted money, friends, girls, jobs, happiness. A lot could be just a coincident, but after having detailed exact things happening just the way I visualized it, I'm starting to believe that there might be something to this vibration stuff they're selling. Though I enjoy the older writings, as theres no marketing hype. Just practical and pragmatic advice. The master key, think and grow rich, science of getting rich etc. Most can be found free online as the copywright has expired.

If nothing else:
A) You have the perfect goal achieving motivational strategy
B) You have the recepie for human happiness. I get so enthusiastic that life bubbles over when I think about what I want.
C) If your intention makes you feel bad, then it's a belief issue. You have to believe you can actually get it. Start smaller if you have to, and get a burning desire for it. Wich basically means you reeeealy want it, and think about all the time. And you basically reeeeealy want it because you think about it all the time.
