You CAN use your power to attract all that you need. I do it every day! Read t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat.com\/2009\/01\/law-of-attraction-in-action-series.html\">he posts in this series<\/a> to see how.<\/p>\n<p>A magnet attracts things to it, whether you want it or not. I&#8217;ve held one that all of a sudden had a small object, like a paperclip, sticking to it. A good magnet can lift something that&#8217;s many times its weight and size. Yet if you put the magnetic ends of 2 magnets together, they will repel each other. And if something happens to the magnet and it loses it&#8217;s magnetic abilities, it won&#8217;t lift anything at all.<\/p>\n<p><b>The Law of Attraction works somewhat like a magnet. Negative thoughts repel what you say you want. Positive thoughts attract it. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>You can magnetize yourself for individual situations or nurture your inner magnet to become a person who attracts what they want as a lifestyle. Just as a magnet will draw to it something that&#8217;s nearby without you consciously putting the magnet against it, you can magnetize your thoughts to attract more of what you want. It takes practice to magnetize thoughts but you can do it if you choose to and don&#8217;t give up if it doesn&#8217;t happen right away. <\/p>\n<p>As you use the tools from my Law of Attraction in Action series in action and raise your consciousness for doing so, being patient and trusting and watching your thoughts and words, etc., will become more automatic. The more they become automatic, the more you&#8217;ll become magnetized. Then you can focus on honing your LOA skills to become a stronger magnet for positive things.<\/p>\n<p><b>You have the capacity to attract all the joy and abundance you would like.<\/b> But, you must use it and train yourself to monitor your thoughts.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s important to practice recognizing where your thoughts go when you want, or don&#8217;t want, something. Does doubt come into your head? Fear? Questions about if it could happen? Feelings of not being deserving? Worry about it happening? Any of those negative thoughts demagnetize your ability to attract what you want. Catching them before they do that puts you on your way to being a magnet for great stuff!<\/p>\n<p><b>Turning your thoughts into positive expectations fuels the magnet in you<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t just monitor the thoughts that are obvious. Focus on your sub-conscious. What messages are you sending to it? Even if you&#8217;re saying all the right things, underneath, in your subconscious, you might have different emotions or worries or negative thoughts. I recently had a client (I&#8217;ll call her Elena) whose company was laying people off. She assured me she was saying the right words to keep her job but followed most statements with a but. &#8220;I trust that I&#8217;ll keep my job!&#8221; &#8220;But, what if my whole department is let go?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>&#8220;What if?&#8221; and &#8220;but&#8221; thoughts are strong demagnetizers<\/b>! <\/p>\n<p>We went over and over and over the importance of staying focused on keeping her job but Elena couldn&#8217;t stop questioning what would happen if she lost it. She was devastated when she was laid off. I can give you tools but can&#8217;t make you use them. It&#8217;s up to YOU to do that! Elena complained that she tried so hard to use her thoughts to keep her job but it didn&#8217;t work. She had to leave in a few weeks. I showed her all the ways she let the doubts seep into her thoughts. Elena admitted to not being able to quell them. <\/p>\n<p><b>I acknowledge it is hard to keep them out. Good things take an effort<\/b>. <\/p>\n<p>Elena committed to make a bigger attempt to manifest and this time knocked out the negatives with positive affirmations. She was determined to magnetize her thoughts this time, and did. On her last day of work, a manager from another department in her company offered to hire her in his department. Someone was leaving suddenly and Elena was qualified to take over. It was a job she liked even better than the one she lost. Magnetizing her thoughts resulted in Elena getting a better job! I got a dozen roses.<\/p>\n<p><b>Have you ever seen someone who seems to have all the luck? It&#8217;s not luck! They&#8217;re magnets.<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>Lucky people have cleared their manifesting receptors. They keep their thoughts positive and do what they can to control negative ones. The good thing is that anyone can become a manifesting magnet. You have the power to control what the Law of Attraction reads as your expectations. As you practice clearing out negative beliefs that can crop up and replace them with positive expectations, you can become the manifesting magnet that people view as lucky. But it&#8217;s not luck. It&#8217;s conscious manifesting!<\/p>\n<p><b>Please leave comments under my posts so we can stay connected.&nbsp; <\/b><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is post 87 in my series on the Law of Attraction in Action.

After being a consummate People Pleaser who felt unworthy of getting her own needs met for many years, Daylle found a path of self-love that enabled her to build her self-esteem and reinvent herself into a dual career. She learned to get taken seriously without being overtly assertive when she became one of the first women to start an independent record label (on a dare!) and learned to play ball nicely and successfully in an industry dominated by men. To help independent musicians empower themselves, Daylle writes music business books for Billboard\/Random House, including the very popular Start &amp; Run Your Own Record Labe and I Don't Need a Record Deal! Daylle's books have been translated into over 10 languages and are popular around the world. She speaks for colleges, organizations and corporations. Through her company, Project Self-Empowerment, Daylle creates programs and materials to help people empower themselves. One goal is to raise the money to self-publish her book, How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways and give it away for free in colleges and through organizations, to give thanks for all her blessings. Daylle uses her writing and speaking to help others find the kind of contentment and empowerment that she has.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/author\/dschwartz"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
