Feel Good -- Feel Those Positive Emotions and Attract the Good Things in Life!
The core of the Law of Attraction, more popularly known as "The Secret," is feeling good on a consistent basis. This page will give you suggestions on how to get those positive emotions and how to dispel the bad ones.
How Are Emotions and Law of Attraction Connected?
The Law of Attraction states that whatever you are thinking, you will get in the future. However, being continuously thinking beings, we can't always monitor our thoughts. That is where emotions come in. If you are feeling good, then you are thinking of good things. That simple!
What you think,
what you feel
and what manifests
is always a match.
All animals, including us humans, have emotions. However, the most incredible gift we have is choice -- the power to decide which emotions we allow ourselves to feel.
What's fantastic about generating positive emotions is that it is very easy to spiral. Upwards, that is. Positive emotions tend to create more positive emotions. When you are feeling joyful about something, it is not uncommon that you will be appreciative about the things you have!
When we are in a positive mood, we do not lose control of how we think, unlike a negative one. When we are in a state of positivity, we tend to take appropriate actions.
Positive people tend to draw a lot of friends to their sides. Who wouldn't want to be with an upbeat, happy person? And I am not just talking about any friend, but friends that are of the same aura. In an age where connections are super important, this is really a good thing!
I couldn't enumerate all the benefits of feeling good, as they are infinite. I really recommend practicing a life of positivity.
We will discuss a few methods on how you can trick (sometimes force) yourself into positivity!

Gratitude
I had this super effective strategy to get more moolah from my daddy after he gave me money. I always did this when I was still in high school: I say "thank you" many, many, many times. Never failed me. Same principle applies to attracting the good things into our lives.
Now God (or the Universe) is not this insecure being or someone who expects this kind of act. When we are being grateful we are focused on the thing we want.
"The grateful mind is constantly fixed upon the best. Therefore it tends to become the best. It takes the form or character of the best, and will receive the best."
~ Wallace D. Wattles
A Simple Gratitude Exercise
Try this: every morning, as you go through your regular morning routine, say "thank you" to a few things you have. And really focus on them. You could be thankful you are still alive when you woke up or you can walk, or you have toothpaste in your bathroom or you have toast for breakfast. This guarantees the warm feeling of gratitude.
Write Them Down!
The Things You Are Thankful For, That Is
For more powerful effect, I suggest not only verbally saying you are thankful for, but also writing them down. You can get a gratitude journal, but a simple notepad will do. Oh, I don't really suggest not repeating some things. I do repeat things I am always grateful for. If you are perpetually grateful to some things, by all means, write it a thousand times. You must be willing to do it also. The point is to feel good, and dreading to do something beats the purpose.
Get Yourself Reminded
I've learned this in this very segment of The Secret movie. I use a very old one-peso coin. My "Gratitude Coin" is always in my pocket! You can use anything, be it a funny Joker Card or a plastic key, as long as it will remind you to be grateful.

Hope
How do you see yourself in the next five years? The answer is in direct correlation with your belief.
Believe that something good is coming. Believe that something is going to happen in your favor. Feel that God (or the Universe) has given us everything we need -- it is right at the table. All we need is to go for it.
Never let go of hope.
One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself...
"How did I get through all of that?"
Choose a Great Set of Friends!
I've only learned this when I was already working. When I was a kid, I never chose my friends. Anyone will do. But in all aspects, quality is always better than quantity.
Surround yourself with friends who share a beautiful, hopeful vibe as you have, preferably those with the same vision you have. Whenever you are feeling down, consult them! You will be each other's cheerleaders. I always do this and it always works wonders.
Create a Vision Board!
Another great way to keep a constant feeling of hope is to make a vision board. In these lenses, Jackie and Breman perfectly explain what a vision board and how to create them!

Beauty
When I was serving as an acolyte in the church, we had this exercise which the our mentors asked us who is the most beautiful person in the world.
Of course we were stumped. They passed us a box, and said that the most beautiful and important person's picture is inside. As they were passing it around, my friends' reactions were a mixture of amusement, surprise and a hint of ridicule.
The boxed reached me, I opened it to my excitement and, inside the box is a... (GASP).... a mirror!
The King is enthralled by your beauty; honor him, for he is your Lord.
~ Psalm 45:11
Rapunzel, Rapunzel, Let Down Your Hair!

The story of Rapunzel is more than a Prince-and-Damsel story for kids. It is a story of realizing how beautiful you are.
Actually, Rapunzel could escape the tower anytime she wanted, however, she wouldn't. She thought that she was a monstrosity, because the old hag told her everyday she was ugly.
But when the prince came and made her realize how beautiful she was, she was able to break free from her imaginary prison.
Daily Affirmation!
Daily affirmations work wonders to feel and believe you are beautiful.
Every time you look into the mirror say that you are beautiful and getting more and more beautiful everyday. Find something you appreciate. Could be your blue eyes, or radical hair (my personal choice). Anything.

Love
I saved the best for last. Love and feeling loved. I am not just talking about romantic love here. I am referring to love in general.
They say love is like a boomerang, how much you give is how much you get in return. That means it should all begin within yourself. Love yourself first, then you will love others, then they will love you back.
Love yourself to fullness, so you can overflow and give love to others.
Get a Dog!
Or any pet for that matter. Having pets has this amazingly powerful therapeutic effect of feeling loved.
Every time I arrive home, my tiredness always goes away when I see my dog. He is obviously ecstatic to see me! It is always refreshing to come home to unconditional love.
Smile!
So easy to do, yet many do not practice this. Just smile at everyone. A smile is a gift and people feel loved when they receive a gift. And you are more likely to receive one back too! Soon, you will see that the world is one loving, smiling place.

A Recent Blessing from Feeling Good

Update: I was really feeling good while making this lens. I was so inspired and hopeful that somehow, when people read this, they will feel inspired and somewhat turn a negative feeling around. What it gave me immediately afterwards?
- I was picked for a two day personality training camp, out of town, all expense paid.
- I made a huge amount of friends with positive aura in the camp.
- After I got home, I checked my Squidoo account, and I made my first above-a-dollar sale here in Squidoo. (Update 01/11/2009: My sales spiraled upwards then. I am over a hundred bucks now!)
- More to come. I am hopeful and expecting.
What is the point? Feeling good works!

- My family and I have tried to practice the messages in "The Secret" for quite some time, but have sometimes become discouraged when 'negative' thoughts creep in. This story has made me "Feel Good" again and I am 'grateful' to you, Roth, for this wonderful reminder. Time to 'dust off' my gratitude journal and remember the 'positive' side. ~~Blessed by a SquidAngel~~

- Really cool lens. I love the part on gratitude - I feel that's been so key for me. No matter what's going on...if we look to what we can be grateful for, it immediately makes us feel better...and starts the ball rolling in the positive direction.
Here's a cool resource on Jerry and Esther Hicks, the couple behind the Law of Attraction.
