The Law of Attraction is a secondary law to the primary law, which is the Law of Vibration.

The Law of Vibration decrees that everything is in motion, including us. We are energy, and it is the energy flowing to and through us that dictates our vibration and what we will attract into our lives.

Specifically, the thoughts we choose to align with and focus on, either by choice or through our paradigms (conditioning), set up our vibration. We can think of it as feeling – feeling is your conscious awareness of the vibration you are in. What you are feeling is evidence of your current internal state.

And that current state leads to actions you take, which lead to your results.

By understanding that it is your vibration that precursors what you attract into your life, you can consciously choose to focus on thoughts that are in harmony with the direction you want to take your life. This alignment changes your vibrational energy and sets you up to attract.

But to do this, you must also recognize and replace any paradigms that are getting in the way.

Dad clearly stated that you cannot simply ‘wish’ for a thing and have it appear. He explained that the Law of Attraction is about more than positive thoughts bringing positive results and negative thoughts bringing the opposite.

In order to understand and utilize the Law of Attraction, you have to grasp the bigger picture.

This means choosing thoughts and actions that bring your mind and body working on the same frequency. And when you do this, you will notice that, at first, everything starts to get better – next, you take control of your life.

When Dad spoke about the laws of the universe, he would say that they are exact and interconnected.

I’ve mentioned that my father called the Law of Attraction your superpower, and it is — when you understand what that means.

Understanding means you grasp the connectedness between how you think, the actions you take, and the results you get with how you live your life, and what you attract into your life.

To understand the connectedness between your thoughts, actions and results, it is important to identify what’s holding you back. For example, you could be looking at a present result in your life and then let that result dictate the thoughts you allow to dominate your mind. Looking at your present results can cause you to think and focus on thoughts that produce feelings that elicit actions, and produce the same results you’ve been getting… Keeping you in a loop where you’re not moving forward.

First, decide that you will not choose your thoughts based on unwanted present results; instead, get clear on your desired result and work backward.  See the result you desire.  Choose to focus on thoughts that support that result and take deliberate action in the direction of the desired result. Open yourself up to attract what you need by paying attention.

Next, pay close attention to how you’re feeling throughout your day. These feelings are evidence of the vibration you are in. If you’re feeling bad, recognize you have become attached to negative thoughts. Then, do something to change the vibration you are in. You could move your body… Go outside… Call a friend… Pet an animal… anything that moves you into a positive state of joy and appreciation.

A fast way to change your vibration is to stop and return to your gratitude practice.

You create a path for attraction when you’re thinking and feeling in alignment with the path you have chosen for yourself, and you are taking intelligent action that adjusts your vibrational output, shifting your mood, attitude, words, thoughts, and perspective. Moving through your day with this awareness and understanding is your superpower.

To put it another way, Dad believed that everything he was attracting into his life was a signal, a gauge — a direct reflection of his internal state. He was always adjusting and always looking for and leaning into the good. He would shift his mindset, which would change his perception. Living this way keeps you aimed in the direction of growth and improvement.

Think about what life is like for the person focused on what is missing or unjust. The person who lives life like a victim will always find evidence of wrongdoing because that is what they are looking for. That is what they are in harmony with. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to spend time with these people. While it might be impossible to avoid negativity, you can choose not to join in and monitor your internal self-talk to keep you uplifted.

Think of each day as an opportunity to apply your manifestation recipe. This is about living life in a way that puts you in harmony with the good you desire.

First, see, feel, and appreciate the abundance and beauty you are surrounded with. Gratitude is about noticing, appreciating, and enjoying everything in your life. This will raise your vibration to a higher frequency and understanding. It widens your view.

Next, live your life from a place of giving and goodwill; giving kindness because it feels good – not to “get” – and not out of “obligation”. This, again, will elevate your vibration.

Build your belief in yourself and then impress it upon your subconscious mind with images, and take daily intelligent actions that this higher level (positive) thinking presents to you.

When you do this, you will easily attract people, resources, experiences and other things into your life that are in harmony with what you want, and you will notice that you are living with a deep sense of grateful aliveness.

Have faith that the Law of Attraction and the Law of Vibration are always working, and faith that they will attract your desires to you when you do the “work”. I hope this blog has helped give you more faith based on understanding, which Dad always pointed out – is way more powerful than blind faith!
