The Secret Law of Attraction
The Top Ten Moans About The Secret Law Of Attraction ...And Why They're Wrong!
"The Secret" movie and book are attracting a lot of controversy and I think it's time to answer the critics. Here's my take on the top ten whinges I've found on the net.
1. It sounds too easy and only hard work guarantees success.
I agree with what Henry Ford said... "Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it". Maybe "The Secret" and Law of Attraction knockers should try it sometime! Creative visualization is NOT easy, simple yes, but not easy!
2. It's just "The Power of Positive Thinking" repackaged.
Positive thinking is a part of it and that's definitely a lot better than the non-stop negative barrage coming from the mass media.
3. It's 'magical' or wishful thinking.
So what's wrong with that? When what you genuinely wish for turns into reality, it is kind of magical! You probably won't get to see the genie but "The Secret" was originally made for TV, so how could they resist shooting that scene!?
4. It's a money making scam.
Why do so many people think they should get everything for free, and that anyone who makes a profit by marketing a product a lot of people want to buy, is a con artist?
5. Victims of evil deeds cannot be attracting them.
They're not. Most people don't consistently think positively or negatively and stuff, good and bad, just happens to them by chance.
6. There are no shortcuts in life.
To follow the obvious signs pointing to your destination must be the quickest route. Why deliberately ignore them and take the long way round?
7. It's just another conspiracy theory.
There is a conspiracy but the conspirators aren't who you think. The people who say you should stop dreaming and live a life of drudgery are the ones plotting against you.
8. The self-help/self-improvement industry is at it again.
If you don't help yourself, then who should? The government? Charity? As for those who think there is no need for self-improvement... congratulations if you think you're perfect, but most of us aren't yet.
9. Money isn't important.
Are you sure your family agrees with you? Would somebody starving to death prefer a donation, or someone feeling really sorry for them.
10. The scientific claims aren't proven.
The references made to quantum physics haven't been disproved either! There is a book called "Quantum Enigma - Physics Encounters Consciousness" which explores the subject.
So what is the truth about The Secret Law of Attraction? Does it really work? You bet it does and I'll be proving it, so stay tuned here and at my blog: http://www.ultrabraintraining.com
Have fun and expect good stuff.

11. It's new age mumbo-jumbo.
New age? Hmm, what about this then: "We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world." The Buddha circa 500BC

- Great Lens.. I liked the response to "magic." I wrote an article combining a few simple, logical facts, which then conclude that real magic is actually much more real, and possible to perform, than most people have thought. It's pretty straightforward and interesting stuff.

- Visualization is an incredibly powerful tool ... when accompanied by action. It can also be hugely beneficial for healing oneself. However, with regard to "manifesting" physical objects, influencing other people or events, it fails.
With regard to moans, you might try answering these:
What about it being thermodynamically impossible, the mental equivalent of The Perpetual Motion Machine.
Unlike an actual Natural law like the "Law of Gravity", which has been repeatedly proven and used to send spacecraft to other planets, the "Law of Attraction" is a man-made artifice. It cannot be measured, detected or otherwise proven.
The energy of our thoughts (the mental vibrations) are barely able to penetrate our skulls, let alone project out into the Universe to become "Manifest"
The energy required to manifest a physical object from energy is stupifyingly huge. Think of the partial conversion of plutonium to daughter products in a nuclear explosion! That isn't even complete conversion. That is conversion of matter to energy through fission. Manifesting would be the opposite, capturing the energy of a nuclear explosion to "manifest" an less than an ounce of fissionable material.

- I AM ALSO A GREAT FAN/BELIEVER OF THE LAW OF ATTRACTION AND RELATED THOUGHTS. HOWEVER I THINK I DISAGREE WITH THE ANSWERE GIVEN TO ' MOAN '
NO. 5, I.E THAT ONE BECOMES A VICTIM OF AN EVIL DEED PURELY BY CHANCE.
I THOUGHT THAT ONE OF THE CENTRAL PRINCIPALS OF THE LOA IS THAT NOTHING HAPPENS BY CHANCE, EVERYTHING IS CAUSE AND EFFECT.
IT IS POLITICALLY CORRECT AND ALSO TRUE TO SAY THAT IT IS NOT THEIR ( VICTIMS OF EVIL DEEDS ) FAULT, BUT COULD IT NOT BE THE RESULT OF THEIR COLLECTIVE / INDIVIDUAL THOUGHTS WHICH SOMEHOW RESULTED IN THEIR BECOMING VICTIMS.
THAT IS WHY IN MY OPINION THAT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO SPREAD THE MESSAGE OF THE LAW OF ATTRACTION TO ALL THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD.

- everyone who claims the law of attraction is crap should come to a lens like this and prove they are wrong. I am trying to explain why the law of attraction does not work for everyone every time because it's incomplete. There are other 10 forgotten laws that make the law of attraction a power that we dreamed about when we say the Secret or read a book about it. If you have time check out my lens about the 11 forgotten laws of attraction. You will love it.
5 stars to you Chris
Wish everyone peace and love,
Florin

- Why can't people accept the law of attraction? The Zohar says that it is because man wants life to be challenging so that he can feel as if he "earned" his good fortune.
I have had massive success with the law of attraction and have even started a website about it to pass the information along to others. I believe in Karma. If I pass it along, even more good will come to me.
Great lens Chris!!!

- the laws of attraction doesnt actually say that u shud give up everything and just day dream about your future. I feel it just changes your perspective on life. You start becoming a more positive person . So ultimately when you get what you want it might not necessarily be due to some magical power working, you might have got it only because of your own hard work. The laws of attraction doesnt mean you shouldnt work hard. It just helps you in becoming a better and more content and positive person. It makes you hope for a better future and makes you believe that you can achieve it.

- Well done Chris. The approach is creative and sharp. The very term "Law of Attraction" doesn't even begin to describe what the LOA actually entails, as you know.
For many, it's just about attracting things when it's really about BECOMING a person of attraction. That process of "becoming" is challenging since we have to deal with the subconscious feelings about ourselves and our worth (often undermining our pursuit of attracting things).
The LOA is not about magical incantations disguised as affimations and visualizations. It's always about personal growth.
Then, it's so much more than positive thinking repackaged. It's becoming aware of and utilzing the power to create your reality. Of course, that takes time even though the hucksters want us to believe we can achieve great prosperity in 3 weeks as long as we buy their materail!
These are great ideas for my Law of Attractionwebsite!
Thanks,
Philip
