Introducing the Power of Thought
Most people have heard about the law of attraction, the secret, and the power of positive thinking. But are these just buzz words for a new age? Or is there something more to it? In short, does it work?
This lens speaks to these questions and includes reviews of some of my favorite books on the subject.
Check out James Arthur Ray's new book that explains how to put the law of attraction into action so that you can attain the life you want.
HARMONIC WEALTH: THE SECRET OF ATTRACTING THE LIFE YOU WANT
by James Arthur Ray (Author)
The result of more than twenty years of study and practical application by World Thought Leader and featured expert for The Secret, James Ray's Harmonic Wealth is based on extensive study of ancient wisdom traditions, cutting-edge findings in quantum physics and other scientific fields, not to mention years of hands-on, hard-won experience. Let this sought-after teacher show you what he's discovered about the secrets of attracting more than you've ever thought possible.

The Law of Attraction
The Law of Attraction states that "whatever we think about, we bring about". This law may initially seem like new age fluff but believe it or not, there are scientific merits to this proposition. The top quantum physicists of our time have discovered that our universe and our reality are very much directed by the "observer".
If you can learn how to harness your thoughts and focus your energy, you literally can learn how to get all the money you ever wanted,create your own fantastic health and wellbeing, find your perfect partner - no matter how picky you are, achieve success in EVERYTHING you do, and create true emotional freedom in your life.
Listen, I know this all sounds like pie in the sky, especially when you are struggling. It can be so hard to envision your deepest dreams when life is coming down around you. But you have to be able to allow yourself to dream your biggest dream. Often that is what holds us back; we don't give ourselves permission to dream our wildest dreams because we think we aren't good enough, or it isn't realistic, or we are too stressed out. You see, our thoughts and the words we speak as a result of what we think place our order to the Universe. They become our self-fulfilling prophecy.
People every day have success because of the power of their thoughts, their determination and focus, and their ability to visualize. For example, Jim Carey told a story about how he attracted a 10 million dollar check to himself. and gave himself five years to receive the check. Apparently, he wrote a 10 million dollar check to himself in 1995 and placed it his wallet where after several years it deteriorated. The check he wrote to himself represented the actual check he ordered from the Universe. He never threw it away; he kept it in his wallet and continued to tell himself he would receive a ten million dollar check. Then, lo and behold, he was offered a part in Dumb and Dumber in 2000, and was to be paid - you guessed it - 10 million dollars!
Learning to think differently can be one of the hardest things to do. If you want to learn how to make your thoughts work for you, read on because I am going to share with you some practical ways you can place the law of attraction on automatic pilot in your life.
Learn how to place your order to the Universe.

by Cheryl Richardson (Author)
Book Description
Dear Friend,
Twenty years ago, I made a decision to wake up and alter the direction of my life. This set in motion a series of events that proved to me there are no coincidences. Every event we experience and every person we meet has been put in our path for a reason. When we awaken to this fundamental truth, we begin to understand that a benevolent force of energy is available to guide and direct our lives. I call this energy the unmistakable touch of grace.
This book tells the story of how grace has transformed my life as well as the lives of others. While some stories may seem unbelievable, all of them are true. As you follow the journey, you'll start to see the influence of grace in your life, too. And, once you've finished, the way you view your life (and the people in it) will be changed forever.

A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose

If you sign up to participate in Oprah and Eckhart Tolle's Teach a New Earth in Live Webcast class, you will need to purchase and read this book beforehand.
A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose is the highly anticipated follow-up to the 2,000,000 copy bestselling inspirational book, The Power of Now.
With his bestselling spiritual guide The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle inspired millions of readers to discover the freedom and joy of a life lived "in the now." In A New Earth, Tolle expands on these powerful ideas to show how transcending our ego-based state of consciousness is not only essential to personal happiness, but also the key to ending conflict and suffering throughout the world. Tolle describes how our attachment to the ego creates the dysfunction that leads to anger, jealousy, and unhappiness, and shows readers how to awaken to a new state of consciousness and follow the path to a truly fulfilling existence.
The Power of Now was a question-and-answer handbook. A New Earth has been written as a traditional narrative, offering anecdotes and philosophies in a way that is accessible to all. Illuminating, enlightening, and uplifting, A New Earth is a profoundly spiritual manifesto for a better way of life-and for building a better world.

The Secret Behind the Secret

Make a Vision Board
Visualization is one of the most powerful "secrets" used by World-Class Goal Achievers. One of the ways proponents of the law of attraction activate the law in their lives in a way that works for them is by creating a vision board. The idea of a vision board is nothing new; however, it has been made popular due to it's use in the movie "The Secret" in 2007.To make a vision board is quite easy. In essence, it is nothing more than a collage on a poster board. Where it differs from just a collage is that all of the pictures and items you put on the board must reflect your best life. When you surround yourself with images of the things you desire, your life changes to match those images. It also serves as a constant reminder of what you want out of life, and as such, it helps you to stay focused on your goals and dreams.
There are several ways to construct a vision board. What follows is just one example.
MATERIALS
1. A good quality poster board. I say good quality because you want it to last and not fall apart.
2. A huge stack of magazines. Ideally, these are magazines that reflect your interests because you are more likely to find images that you like in these.
3. Photographs and momentos of people places and things that inspire you.
4. A large photo of yourself that show you to be happy, positive, and enthusiastic.
5. Lots of glue sticks. I like glue sticks because they are easy to use and don't warp the board or clippings.
6. Scissors
7. Color markers or pens.
DIRECTIONS
Before you begin clipping, create an atmosphere that helps you to relax and enjoy the task at hand. Put on your favorite music, light some candles,incense, or home fragrance oil. Take a moment to create a vision in your mind of exactly how you want your life to be.
1.Begin looking through the magazines and clip out images that you are drawn to and that reflect your vision. Cut or tear out words, phrases, numbers, and/or letters.
2. Put the photograph of yourself in the center of the poster board.
3. Begin laying your clippings, photos and momentos out on the board until you have a composition that is pleasing to you. Eliminate those images that you do not love or those that don't fit your vision. Write words or draw pictures with your markers if you want.
4. When you have a composition that you like, begin gluing everything to the board.
5. Place your vision board where you will see it often.
You can also create a vision journal in the same manner. You proceed in the same manner as you do with the poster board, only place the images in a journal that you bought or made just for this purpose. I have made vision journals before where I placed an image or two on each page and used these images as a guideline for themed writing. For example, I put a picture of an Italian greyhound in my journal. When I got to that page, I wrote everything that came to mind about why I wanted an Italian greyhound, how I felt about the plight of greyhounds, why I liked greyhounds, etc. FYI, I received a phone call within the year about a greyhound that was on his way to the pound. Apparently, his original owner had a problem with depression and gave him away a month or so earlier. In the period of four weeks, this poor little creature was in four different homes. The people who were taking him to the pound had to, because when they said they would take him, they didn't realize they couldn't have dogs in their apartment. So they were forced to give him up. My stepmother happened to hear his story and knew that I had wanted an Italian greyhound since my other greyhound had passed away after fifteen happy years. But, I couldn't afford to buy one because they are quite costly (around $1500.00) and I was a full-time grad student with limited income. LOng story short, I agreed to at least foster the little guy until I could arrange to have a rescue league place him. Of course, he was never placed anywhere else because I knew he was meant to be with me and my son. I had placed my order with the Universe, and the Universe was filling it. We fell in love with him and he is a full fledged member of the family. In fact, he has a couple of lenses on Squidoo: The Mystic Dog in Fashion and Italian Greyhounds. Go ahead and meet Zephyr, he will appreciate the visit and rating, if you are so inclined.
Finally, there is a new trend going on with regards to vision boards. Called Vision Board, this computer application enables you to take the teachings of the Law of Attraction and apply them in your daily life. It helps you to visualize your goals and dreams in a unique and dynamic way on your computer screen, using your personal dream images. You can combine these images with self chosen affirmations and power words. This way, Vision Board assists you in adjusting your belief system to break through any self limiting barriers you might have to reach your goals and create the life you desire. By focusing on your Vision Board on a daily basis with intent, you will attract your goals to your reality by virtue of the Law of Attraction.
Create your vision board with this cool new tool.
