I was talking with a friend the other day and we remember before the law of attraction was a trending term, it was like attracts like. In the school playground if someone insulted you and you felt cheeky back you would say, ‘I know you are but what am I…’ Oh how clever were we when were in little school…!

Then my friend and I went on to say how people are still not totally sure what the law of attraction is, well not in its totality anyway. In not being sure what it is many people don’t know how to make it work in their life. Persevering like knocking on a door when no-one is in, but knocking non-stop anyway. Yet it is hard to say, hey it is not working for me.
Do you ever think this or similar?
“I cannot understand why the law of attraction is not consistently working for me – if like attracts like why am I being like the person who wants struggle and things to not work or magnetize? I cannot get it, I cannot understand how to move from this cycle as I believed I was doing everything that was ‘right’.”
The things people say about the law of attraction!
- It is something to do with vision boards… Can be a tool to attract as well as manifest!
- Something to do with affirmations….See above!
- It is about like attracting like so have good thoughts…Yes that is core to the law of attraction.
- It is how you manifest? It is part of manifestation in that it sits side by side but attraction is not manifestation. Manifestation is creation.
You can see from the examples above that there is a degree of confusion about what the law of attraction really is.
I want to tell you here, right now what the law of attraction is about so you can start focussing on applying it and using it for good in your life.
When you know what it is you will understand how to use it in your life and how you can attract the things that you desire into your life.
The law of attraction attracts and it is your ability to magnetize what you desire. It is energy work primarily rather than external work but that is the case with all activity it starts with energy before it materialises.
“This is why the saying like attracts like exists as if your energy is like something then you are able to attract something of that resonance into your life.”
What you ‘attract’ can be anything from situations, people or opportunities or other material or emotional ‘stuff.’
With this popularised spiritual law there are other spiritual laws that impact on it too. The law of karma, which is about cause and effect for example, so this would mean if you are desiring to attract something in your life which is causing you or others harm, it is impacting on your energy imprint.
This doesn’t mean you can’t attract that which causes harm as people do, but what it does mean is that you create karmic debt which at one point or another has to be repaid. Until it is repaid you cannot truly transform your soul and live in spiritual oneness. If you want soul growth and to be part of birthing the New Era, the spiritual truth of not causing harm to yourself or another is essential.
Why does the law of attraction not always work…?
Reason #1
Like all spiritual tools, especially the ones popularised the focus has been externalised. Yet if you are being the magnet the energy work is ‘inner work.’ However to balance the inner energy work action is always needed, the energy work is the yin and the action is the yang. Without both present and not necessarily with a 50/50 split between the two, you are not operating from a field that you can attract from.
If you want to attract 10 clients for your latest programme, there is action you will have to take. It doesn’t have to be a lot of action but it might be, as each situation will be unique. The only way to know the action is to connect to your intuition. There will be nevertheless activity that you need to take, like create the content for your programme, do some marketing and so on.
If you don’t take aligned action when you are working on the energy aspect of the law of attraction it stops YOU from magnetizing.
Reason #2
If you raise your energy for a few minutes daily, brilliant but then if you spend the rest of the time in doubt, not trusting yourself or the universe and generally gloomy or immobilised etc. then it isn’t really a surprise that your law of attraction efforts are not yielding any results for you. Without consistency you undo any of the work towards results as not only is it a minor part of your everyday it is just going to be drowned out by the denser and more negative thoughts about how your life will not change in the way you desire.
Reason #3
There are tools which can help you magnetise and raise your energy. However I have noticed that the majority of people don’t know how to use them effectively – affirmations, vision boards, visualisation, meditation and intuition as well as support. Without these working for you the energy shifts are harder to create and magnetising and attracting is often hampered and hindered by misaligned patterns.
Patterns for healing will always come up yet if you are not able to recognise them and use the available tools to address what you desire, then you will begin to feel stuck!
How to make the law of attraction work for you…!
There is no reason why the law of attraction wouldn’t apply to give you the results you desire other than YOU. It is never anything external to you. It is how you manage your energy and focus on what you want.
Share in the comments below how this article has inspired you and feel free to share if you have any questions too…the law of attraction is there to make your life the one you dreamed of!!
I blv law of attraction is still, opposites Attract..as in physics..Like ppl keep pics of their Goals on vision board, then thry meditate & visualize.. all that is Vision, in reality, in present moment, they are not like that..and that unlikeness create the motivation to take action & grow..
Once Goals are Achieved, aren’t we unhappy again?? that means equality creates repulsion..

This is a serious subject that must be understood before you can even begin to utilize the power which we all have yet lack of belief is a major reason most cannot harness the full potientiial each already has with this “Law of Attraction”.
Now, is the time to tap into that imagination without doubt and visualize things as when you were a child. Everything that we focus on and add the correct actions as though it already as been accomplished, will make it manifest into your life. You can not have any negative feelings and should learn how to practice daily your way of thinking, living and being. Once you have practice keep doing this daily.
Anything worth having is worth learning the right way the first time to get to it. You cannot simple read a book and know how to apply all the fundamentals without help from someone who is doing such a thing.
Sometimes one should stop think and listen to those who have been living this way and learn without wanting each and every detail. Getting to know and use the fundalmetals first is the solution to avoid confusion yet get it right.
Thank you for such a great introduction to a way of ones enhanced lifestyle and not just a think to do.
Simply Remarkable.

Sarupa, people are aware of the law of attraction and in fact mention it all the time with sayings like “you make your own luck” and “you get what you deserve”, yet they have no true understanding of its power. Thank you for giving us this insight and for the great work you are doing!
Thanks for your comments…and I like to say we create our own reality and luck really isn’t anything to do with it… 😉
If you can use power instead of force Sarupa wow does the Law work well for you. Thanks for sharing!
