Law of Attraction: Do You Work Too Hard At It? by Joyce Shafer

Do we put too much effort into getting the Law of Attraction to work? Here’s something that transforms it from a struggle into a stream.

Let’s think about what we know.

Law of Attraction is the formula we use to instruct the quantum field about what to manifest into our lives, whether we do this with conscious or subconscious thought. The field follows the patterns imbued in it by Source (God, Universe, etc.) and mirrors our thoughts back to us as experiences. It follows the Law and is impartial as to what we instruct it to do.

We also know, or benefit from knowing, that Absolute Faith equals Absolute Results.

Since the field responds to the thoughts we have the strongest emotions or feelings about, the next consideration would have to be: what does absolute faith feel like?

It doesn’t feel like stress, strain, worry, doubt, or any attempt to enforce our will on it. Such emotions and thoughts as these nurture increased feelings of separation from Source, absence of mindfulness about how the Law works, and our true nature . . . and attract more of what we prefer not to experience. It’s not necessary (nor beneficial) to repeatedly focus on or will a thought form. We can get a clear feeling-sensing-living it image in our minds so the field knows what to create for us, but the powerful energy that makes it happen is to allow it . . . without “irritating” it as we might an insect bite.

I recall having the thought about fifteen years ago that the Source Consciousness is perfect. It can’t lack, be ill, or be confused. Underneath the layers of beliefs, programs, and stories we tell ourselves and others, the truth of what Source is, is also our truth . . . because we’re the same energy, just individual expressions of it. So, only our perceptions can cause us to experience these effects.

Knowing this realization, however, doesn’t mean we immediately integrate it into our thought patterns. More often we take a winding, sometimes frightening journey in the direction of the rainbow where we know the pot of gold waits for us. But, this type of journey is also based in perception, or cause and effect.

If you’ve believed you’re flawed or less in any way, you may perceive there are quite a few layers to let go of before you consistently feel or choose to feel the truth at your center. However, you can feel it sooner than later. You can peel away more than one layer at a time.

The fastest way to get to the core truth of who you are so your Law of Attraction formula works properly is to grasp that you’re an expression of Source and can never be separate from it except in your mind, as well as recognize that Source flows perfectly, with no imperfections, no lack, no fear. Consider the disproportionate attention fear in all its forms gets as an influence in our lives. This influence comes at us from all directions. You can choose to accept that fear is a source you wish to ingest (and regurgitate) or not. Most of the messages we receive from the world tell us we are disempowered, separate from Source and each other, separate from serenity, abundance, creativity, and from our true nature.

The Law works best for us when we are at one with truth about our unity with Source, when we are serene, trusting . . . in a state of absolute faith about who we are.

Alchemy Statement 13 from “Law of Attraction Alchemy: Change Lead Thoughts into Gold states: “I understand that nothing moves but mind, so attend to my thoughts.”

The greatest, most effective thought you can attend to is the truth of Source, which is your own truth as an individual expression of it.

What might you have to let go of for the stream instead of the struggle to be your reality?
