If you are having problems manifesting what you want in your life then you will want to read the rest of this article.

Here are 7 reasons the law of attraction may not be working for you and how to fix it.

1.  You don’t really understand how it works

You may have watched the movie the secret and understand that you can attract the things you want in life but you don’t have an underlining sense of why it actually works that way!

The only way to fix this problem is to keep studying and learning about the law of attraction until you really understand the inside and out of it all. The great news is that there are so many teachers out there that are teaching the law of attraction that you will always have a new way to look at it or understand it.

2.  You are so set in your beliefs that you just can’t believe anything else.

Your mother told you that you can’t be a successful dancer in life because it will take you nowhere in life. You believe this with all your heart and give up on trying because there is no use.

A belief is a belief and it affects your thoughts and therefore your attraction 100 percent. You have to realize that your beliefs are attracting what you want or don’t want into your life and the only way to change the way you think and attract what you want is to change your beliefs.

Remember that just because someone told you so doesn’t actually make it so.

3.  Fear rules your life.

You are scared to admit to what you want because you are scared you will not get it. You feel it’s better to live without then to be disappointed in the end.

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying that the only thing to fear is fear itself. And it’s so true! Fear holds so many people back from doing what they want and accomplishing things in life that would make them proud of themselves that it’s absolutely insane.

Remember that if you spend your whole life in fear you will never know if there was really nothing to be afraid of because you will never try.

4.  You are not putting any action behind what you want to manifest.

You want a huge house in the country and you are sitting on your butt waiting for it. How can you expect to get anything in life without actually putting some action towards getting it!

Once you start putting action behind your words, wants, and thoughts you will start to see things shifting into place for you. Opportunities will come alive to move closer to your manifestation and you will find that you are attracting things to you faster then ever.

So if you want to become a writer then you are going to have to write!

5.  You don’t want to go against the grain of your family or friends.

Your family says that the law of attraction is stupid and made up and even though your heart tells you differently you don’t want them to think you are doing something silly, so you don’t.

Families have a huge influence over us but the truth is that even if you are different they will still love you and accept you in the family. The bigger truth is that they may even recognize what you are doing as healthy and something they want to do and soon that silly thing will become a family trait.

6.  You want bad things for others.

You hate that your co-worker makes more then you and you don’t want your neighbor to have the boat that you’ve been trying to attract. Instead of just wishing bad things for others you are also stopping your good things from coming.

You can’t wish bad things on other people because you spend so much time being negative which is not going to help you stay on a positive vibration of attracting good things.

7.  You don’t use affirmations in your life.

Saying that you are rich in the mirror over and over seems stupid and pointless to you.

The only way to really belief something is to convince yourself of its truth. Your beliefs right now are thoughts that you have told yourself are true because of experience or just the fact that it makes sense.

Affirmations consistently put those thoughts in your brain to think about, to picture, to mull over, and to finally accept as a belief. Affirmations are not stupid, they are powerful tools for the law of attraction.

Would I be correct in saying that most of the world requires the need for money to survive? We all need to use money to survive, but there are those that do not have a good view about money. How many times have you heard those words “the rich get richer” and “money is the root of all evil.”

One part of the law of attraction says “like attracts like”, so if you want to increase the amount of money you have, then you have to appreciate money, even to go as far loving money. I know, this does sound very strange.

Acquiring all that money into your world is similar to loving somebody. To get to know that handsome man or good looking women you just give them a call or speak to them. Then you get together to know each other better.

Maybe you read love poems together or even write each other love letters. You go out of your way to find out what your partner loves and get them that surprise gift. You look at a photo of your partner to look at every day. You are deeply in love. The law of attraction is what this is all about. It is more than just having affirmations or visualising pictures. It is about putting everything you have and do into it, your mind, your heart, even your soul.

This works with everything in your life, even for money.  The first of five simple steps is:-

1st Step – Money is similar to electricity. It is not good, neither is it bad. Similar to electricity, it can be used for good things as much as it can be used for bad things. We all use money as an excuse for our misjudgements as we are all afraid to stand up for our own responsibilities.

2nd Step – We need to be spiritual to be able to attract our dreams into our lives. Being spiritual about something is an awesome feeling. The love for something is a healthy feeling. If you feel stupid being asked to love money, how on earth do you expect it to love you and be attracted to you? Don’t forget, it has to be a well balanced love.

3rd Step – Always carry a picture or symbol around with you, so that you can visualise the money you want to attract into your life. Use any picture or symbol to remind you of money, what ever is the best for you to remind you of your goal.

4th Step – You need to take action by thinking it through, even go as far as meditation. Believe in that part of your mind that works for you, without you having to think about it. That part of your mind is your sub consciousness. But don’t forget, what ever you wish for will not just fall into your lap there and then, it takes time and effort.

5th Step – Your imagination. Use it to feel what it will be like to be wealthy, really imagine it. Imagine how much you would like and by when? Make it realistic and not impossible. Make it so clear in your mind that you are already wealthy and then go with the feeling. I suggest that you do this daily for as long as you want to and when you want to, what ever works for you to attract that wealth. Make it a fun thing to do, don’t make it boring or you will give up.

These 5 steps are only a small part of the Law of Attraction, that will help you improve your mind towards a wealthier life style.

The Law of Attraction very simply says that your thoughts will become your reality over time.You release energy,and the control of your thinking will shape your future.You are like a magnet, and will attract the things you wish into your life.The universe will respond to your feelings.This law is true for both good and bad vibrations emitted.
 

Each individual has thousands of thoughts each day, and it is, of course, an impossibility to monitor every single one.The way you feel is the key factor.Focus on joy, gratitude for what you have, and how you will feel once you have achieved your goal or goals.By concentrating on the positive,it will become possible to put the negative thoughts to one side.

If a person thinks about an unhappy relationship,ill-health or his financial debts,then they will not know the abundance that they may secretly desire.A changing of attitude is necessary, and know that whatever situation you may feel yourself in, it is never too late to change your thought processes.

Believe that there is enough to go around.Not every person will want the same things.With the regular and diligent practise of The Law of Attraction,you will be able to increase your own self-confidence.You will have more energy,and inspiration will come to you.You will learn to act on this inspiration, and also know that other routes are not for you.Positive energy will radiate from you,attracting the right people into your life.
 

Your own subconscious is in tune with the universe.Believe this!If you see and feel good,it will come back to you.Do not be afraid to ask, and then pursue your goals.The Law of Attraction is simple, yet it will require a restructuring of your thinking procedures.After a short time, you will begin to feel the benefits of this new mental attitude.You will know that you have as much ability as the next person.Go for your goals!

Does this sound like something you can relate to?

I know for me,  I used to think that way.  I used to look at inspirational stories and tales of success as being nice,  but just not really in the “stars” for me.  Thankfully,  I learned to make an important shift in the way that I saw the world and change my expectations in life.

If you have heard of the Law of Attraction,  then I am sure at first,  the concept that you could consciously create a life for yourself seemed to be kind of a stretch of the imagination.  I know I did.  The thing is,  as long as you keep an open mind,  and make yourself AWARE of the possibilities,  crazy things can happen.

And I mean crazy in a GOOD way.

We all are well aware that bad things can happen,  they tend to pop up from time to time.  Well,  if that is kind of an expected result,  then the converse should be true as well.  That good things can pop up from time to time.

That is the kind of shift in thinking that will produce tangible results with the Law of Attraction.

When learning how to use the Law of Attraction,  you need to be aware that not all things are going to be attracted to you right away.  There is a buffer in time,  and sometimes, for some desires,  it will take a long time.  An example of this might be if you wanted to attract a family of your own because right now you are single.

Well,  even if you meet the right person tomorrow,  there is going to be some time in between then and when you get married.  And unless you have twins or triplets,  it will be a few years before you have 2 or 3 children.  So,  you can see that for some things to manifest,  they are naturally going to take some time.

Most people become too impatient with the Law of Attraction and give up before they really even get started.

Unfortunately,  we seem to have a natural inclination to want to have things happen right away.  If we want to become wealthy, we want it to happen tomorrow.  Well,  that usually does not happen unless you hit the magic numbers on the lottery,  or you win some kind of a contest.  Even then,  it takes a little while before you actually get the cash in hand.

When you expect things too happen too quickly,  it is easy to end up getting disappointed before you really get on track to manifest the things that you want.  And that is the most common reason why people fail to really harness the power of using the Law of Attraction to get what you want.

You CAN manifest miracles,  but you need to know HOW and you also need to be able to exercise some patience and make yourself TAKE ACTION when an opportunity springs up.

The normal topic is complaining when having conversations with others, we watch negative things on TV and shake our head in agreement or misery and we think about all the negative things we no longer want in our lives.

We literally dwell in a sea of negative and we’ve done if for so long that it is commonplace, and normal, to do so. It has become easier to focus on the negative then the positive. But if you want to use the law of attraction to its fullest you may want to jump on the positive train.

In reality, positive thinking should not just be something we do when we want to attract something but instead should be something we are always doing in every situation no matter how bad we can make it out to be. Once you start using it for whatever reason it will become a part of who you are and how you deal with situations and you will feel good – no great, and hopefully be contagious.

There are many sayings that we hear and say all the time that coincide with this kind of thinking like “Look at the bright side of life” or “See the glass as half full instead of half empty” or “Count your blessings” and the list goes on and on and on and the more we incorporate those sayings into our lives and start actually living them the better we will be able to attract what we want.

If you find a saying that works for you and makes sense then use it every time a negative feeling pops into your head. For instance, if the saying ‘count your blessings’ makes you appreciate the good in life then use it when you are stuck in a long line. Instead of being upset that you are not in the front and you have to stand around waiting forever be grateful that you now have the time to solve a problem you’ve been having, or reflect on something funny that happened yesterday, or have the time to relax, or that you have the money to buy whatever you are in line for.

Become more positive and have a happier and healthier life by getting rid of negative thoughts and start to ‘look at the bright side of life’.

So what? Isn’t the Law of Attraction used to cultivate a positive mindset? What’s the harm?

Let’s go back to the swans. Karl Popper, one of the world’s most renowned scientific philosophers, used the black swan to demonstrate that no theory holds up to scientific scrutiny unless it can be falsified. Ask most people what color swans are and they’ll say white; most swans are white. However, all it takes is one black swan to falsify the statement that “all swans are white.” While rare, black swans do exist, so this provides the exception that opens the white swan theory to scrutiny and scientific examination.

So what’s all this got to do with the Law of Attraction?

My problem with the Law of Attraction is that too many people use it as an excuse for inaction, or worse as some kind of explanation or even justification for personal inadequacies, real or perceived. I once talked to a woman who was in authentic agony because she had arrived at the conclusion that there must be something seriously wrong with her. Why? Because she had been manifesting and building vision boards to help her focus on raising $30,000 she needed within weeks to buy in to a business offering that she felt was her destiny. So far, she had not managed to “manifest” a single dollar. Her question to me was, “Jim, what’s wrong with me?”

The fact is that despite what too many people believe about the Law of Attraction, plenty of crooks and assholes attract a lot of good things into their lives, especially it seems, money. People do get rich, and some seem also to be emotionally and maybe even spiritually satisfied exploiting others. All it takes is one successful exploitive jerk and you’ve got your black swan.

On the other hand, you may be doing your absolute best to be a good person and yet the only thing you seem to attract is a cloud of dust like Pig Pen from the old Charlie Brown comics.

The fact is that all the manifesting, meditating, vision boarding and communing with the spirits of dolphins (yup, someone actually charges money for that one) isn’t going to do a damn thing if you’re not willing to accept the hard work, discipline and perseverance it takes to accomplish anything worthwhile. Even then, you may fail.

This revelation may be very discomforting to some people. To me it’s not. The Black Swan Problem doesn’t mean that everything you’re doing is a waste of time, far from it. It simply means you should approach the problem of success with a rational, scientific methodology. In its original form, Napoleon Hill identifies the Law of Attraction as a characteristic of the successful people he studied. He found that generally, you do “manifest” or attract the outcomes you focus your mind upon…if you’re willing to do the work. You may also find that your efforts take you in an entirely new direction. Be open to change, you may find your life’s greatest adventure!

Back to the woman looking for the $30,000- I convinced her to at least consider the possibility that there was absolutely nothing wrong with her. Maybe the money wasn’t coming her way because she really wasn’t doing anything tangible to go and get it. Maybe there was a good reason for that; maybe the deal sucked! (And it did!) In her guts, she knew it!

If you’re manifesting diligently and things aren’t breaking your way, take a look at exactly what you want and why. You see, I’m not condemning manifesting, vision board, affirmations and other such tools. I use them myself. I’m really sick of people using them as crutches and getting ripped off by people whose only successful manifestation has been to manifest other people’s money selling CD sets and weekend retreats with guarantees of unlimited wealth. Amazing how these snake oil peddlers always find a way to up-sell you to another retreat if for some reason you can’t seem to make it work the first time around.

“The good news is there are still plenty of ambitious, creative people in the world who feel entitled to nothing but an opportunity and are willing to work hard to make the most of it. You’re one of them. Seriously, if you haven’t thrown this book (Think Like a Black Belt) out the window yet, you must agree that discipline, focus and hard work are the necessary ingredients for a happy and successful life. You may already be well developed in these areas or you may want to improve, but either way you recognize that the best rewards in life are those that are earned.”

If you need the money available for some new kitchen fixtures, like the faucet and sink, you can use the Law Of Attraction and “think positive thoughts” and let the “universe” know what you want or need.

When you are ready to buy the items to replace or remodel the kitchen, you don’t have to run all over town searching for the items that you want, you can actually shop online, from the comfort of your own home. There are many great websites, such as www.MasterFaucet.com where they have so many great kitchen faucets, sinks, and anything else you could need.

I know, there are so many marketing messages about how to use the Law of Attraction that make it seem like you can start wishing Ferraris and $ 100,000 checks into your life by tomorrow. All they are are marketing messages, though. While you CAN get amazing results, it’s usually the residual reaction of actually taking the Law of Attraction and working with it for some time.

Here are 3 Law of Attraction tips that will help you to manifest your desires, hopefully sooner than later:

1. To get the most out of using the Law of Attraction, you have to reprogram the way that you see the world.

Now, don’t get intimidated by the word reprogram here. All it really means is that you have to see things the way that most people will not. See, most people are focused on the things that they lack in life. They turn on the television to the news, and all they hear is negative stories. Well, they keep feeding themselves these negative messages and what happens, they attract negative experiences. You need to tune that stuff out, not to be ignorant of what is going on in the world, but to realize that negativity SELLS.

2. You also need to be able to realize that overnight changes usually take time.

What I mean by this is, when you look at things that seem to occur overnight or in the blink of an eye, it usually is the result of years of hard work. Take the typical overnight success in the music industry. You see a new star and it seems to have just happened in the blink of an eye, but that star worked on their singing career for 10 years maybe before they got that one hit that made them famous.

3. You have to BELIEVE that you can ACHIEVE positive results.

Most people are conditioned to believe in mediocrity. If you had BIG dreams as a child, somewhere along the way, someone probably taught you to be more “realistic.” Well, more often than not, realistic is just a code word for MEDIOCRE, or AVERAGE. If you believe that you can achieve positive results, no matter how big or small, chances are, you will achieve them.
