Hello world...

I've recently came across this term "The Law of Attraction"... I was aware of it as "will power" before I watched "The Secret"... It has worked for me even before wasn't aware of it...
I really believe in this. But after I watched and read "The Secret" somehow it is not working for me as it used to. I guess I am doing something wrong. May be I misunderstood something from it and I am doing that in a wrong way(I don't know exactly what lol ). So I thought lets start from the scratch again with some experienced people like you all and this time i'll be more understanding to the whole thing...

I'm looking for basics to get started with this.

Hey Angel_star! Thanks for replying 

I was out of station so could not reply..

This is my story.
I truly believe in "The Law of Attraction". When I was a kid people used to say that I have strong will power. I always got what I wanted by heart. But I always felt something from inside that its not just a will power. I never knew what it was, before I watched "The Secret".

A few examples from last 2 years.

1) I wanted to get into "X" college to complete my graduation in Computer engineering. But I had less grades. I just wished I could get into that college and I got admitted there through "Sports quota" as i am a football player also.

2) In my final year I wanted to do project with certain group of people. I imagined 2 or 3 times that we are sitting together and working on project (before it was started). But kept looking for other groups to join. After a week or two those guys approached me and asked me if I'd like to join their project group.

3) I wanted to get a job in "X" company. Before final interview I just imagined that "Tomorrow I will have logo of that company as my facebook profile pic and my status would read , "Got placed in X"... Next day I got job there and I was the best performing student of all in the whole interview process.

4) This is the most recent example when I was out of station for last 4 days. Currently I feel like getting into a relationship with a beautiful woman. While leaving my place I was feeling like someone should meet me. The place I was going to is not so good about meeting someone new. Its a small village and I know almost everyone there. But as I reached there I saw almost 200 women of the type I like came there to spend their vacation. I didn't do anything more than asking some of them where they are from! I was very surprised to see this in action. I couldn't think anything more that thanking the universe for showing me that the "Law of attraction" works.

There are also failure stories. I don't want to get into that. But I have observed that the more I "chase" things the more disappointments I get. Does anyone of you know why is that? If I wish for something and take my mind off of it, it works like a charm.

It tried doing the same thing. But there are a few things that I want so badly that I can't get them off of my mind... Is there any solution for this?

Thanks,
Adi

Hey Aditya! Wow you really have a good understanding of LOA, and I am impressed with your success stories. Don't worry everyone has failures in this journey, not because the law failed, but its because something went wrong with us. And most often, its the attachment to the outcome. That brings me to the subject of detachment.

But I have observed that the more I "chase" things the more disappointments I get. Does anyone of you know why is that? If I wish for something and take my mind off of it, it works like a charm.

Perfect! When you chase a desire, you are attached about the outcome as if you cannot ever be happy without that desire. So you get worried, dependent and impatient about that desire. As a result you block the way with resistance and the desire takes forever to come to you. On the other hand, when you wish for something, enjoy the feeling and then forget it, there is absolutely no attachment or dependence on the desire, so there is no resistance and the desire manifests quickly. This is called the Law Of Detachment.

Now what works best for me, in order to detach, is to forget the desire by distracting myself with other desires. For instance, suppose I want to attract money, I wish for the amount I want, enjoy the feeling until I feel satisfied and then I deliberately take my mnd off it and start focusing on other desires. Like I start focusing on attracting a contact from an old friend, or attracting a particular food dish...etc. In the process I would have taken my mind off the 'money desire', so there will be no resistance to money and money will flow in

This is exactly what I was looking for.... I will try this and let you know if it works for me too... But I must find you what works the best for me...
