Financial hardship is the reason many people eventually stumble onto the Law of Attraction. Almost everyone intuitively realizes that some aspect of our inner persona plays a significant role in our financial condition. It might be difficult to acknowledge, but for better or worse you’ve manifested your financial situation through one of the Laws of the Universe: the Law of Attraction.
You may scoff that you would create a life of scarcity and struggle when it comes to money especially when events seem beyond your control like loss of a job. However, abundance is simply an outward manifestation of our inner landscapes. That is also why when many people set out to manipulate the Law of Attraction to bring more money into their lives, they often fail.
The Law of Attraction is a Universal Law, so you might be questioning why it doesn’t work in the manner you want it to. You must first realize that the Law of Attraction is one of the inflexible laws of the universe. As such, it is always at work whether it’s obvious or not. The issue is with our understanding of the Law and how we try to manipulate it.
Although the Law of Attraction has gained a lot of attention in recent years thanks to popular books and movies like The Secret, this pillar of the universe has been known since ancient times and is the basis of a lot of esoteric teachings and the foundation of some belief systems.
So, don’t dismiss the Law of Attraction as some pop culture fad and don’t abandon it if it doesn’t seem to work for you. If it doesn’t work for you, you haven’t yet learned its true essence. Some people even have the experience of it seeming to work in reverse. Instead of an improvement in matters of financial abundance, they spiral even further into financial ruin.
Keep this in mind when you’re trying to understand how the Law of Attraction operates. You’ll fail if you simply decide to manifest abundance by saying affirmations and making yourself concentrate on abundance several times daily.
The Law of Attraction is based upon vibrations and the fact that like vibrations attract. So while you may be diligently saying your affirmations each day, what are you feeling? Do you feel financial desperation? Do you feel hopelessness? If so, you are sending out vibrations of despair and hopelessness tied to money. The Universe receives those vibrations and sends like vibrations back to you that will bring you more situations where you feel desperate and hopeless.
Many people find this to be a Catch-22. To paraphrase Wikipedia, a Catch-22 is a situation where a person needs something but it can only be obtained by not being in need of it. This difficulty might seem impossible to overcome, but if you learn a few techniques you’ll be able to purposefully use the Law of Attraction to your advantage and improve your financial situation.
First, you need to be truly aware of your emotions. It is your emotions that constantly emit vibrations to the universe. You know emotions can be almost impossible to control, so you should also realize that manipulating the Law of Attraction can be difficult. Our ancient ancestors worked hard at it during their training, and you will need to also.
Understanding that simple fact and being able to act on it gives you an advantage over many others when you’re trying to increase the abundance in your life by manipulating the Law of Attraction. It’s impossible to fool or trick Universal Laws like the Law of Attraction, because your emotions are what emit vibrations, not your conscious thoughts.
This means whenever you’re doing affirmations, you’ll need to keep your emotions under control. Don’t consciously do your affirmations at a time when you’re fearful or depressed about your financial status. If you do, you’ll only be creating vibrations that will ultimately worsen your financial condition.
Instead, work with the Law of Attraction when you’re feeling hopeful. When these positive vibrations are combined with a conscious intent to manifest abundance, it’s inevitable that the power of the universe will bring you positive financial returns.
The Law of Attraction is aptly named. It is one of the immutable Laws of the Universe. Learning the properties of this law is important to being able to skillfully use it. It is always in force. It is not something you can switch on and off or call upon when it is convenient. It is working twenty four hours a day to bring you circumstances and experiences that are a vibrational match for the emotional vibrations you emit. The areas of concern that occupy your mental plane, like finances, are where these events will manifest.
Skillfully using the Law of Attraction to manifest abundance is not only about sending forth positive vibrations about money and finances. You must also learn to keep negative emotions at bay because the two vibrations are constantly canceling each other out. But don’t be dismayed, it is not an impossible task. Focus on being positive by being grateful for what you already have. Practicing heartfelt gratitude on a regular basis is a powerful tool for manifesting abundance through the Law of Attraction.
