Read all the posts in my <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/2009\/01\/Law-of-Attraction-in-Action-Series.html \" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Law of Attraction in Action Series<\/strong><\/a> to see how.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s common for someone to be fixed on being right about something they don\u2019t like, even if they wish it weren\u2019t right. When circumstances seem obvious, you can succumb to them. That\u2019s a great way to use the Law of Attraction to get what you don\u2019t want! Circumstances don\u2019t create your reality. How aligned you are to something happening does. Being aligned means you believe it and it reflects in your vibration\u2014the emotions you feel when you think about it happening.<\/p>\n<p>Yet even people who understand that get sucked into what they think will happen because of what they see in front of them. I\u2019ll argue with someone when I hear them say that while they don\u2019t like what they expect to happen, they know they\u2019re right about it. Knowing you\u2019re right will make it right, even if it\u2019s wrong for you. For example:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<strong>\u201cEveryone in my office has a stomach virus so I\u2019m right that my slight indigestion means I\u2019m getting it too.\u201d<\/strong> I\u2019ve been around people who had the flu but when my nose got stuffed and my throat got scratchy, and people told me I had the flu. Instead of going there, I aligned with a belief that my symptoms just being a response to the temperature dropping fast and my system not being used to it. And I never got the flu. I refused to adopt everyone else\u2019s \u201cright\u201d and felt better fast, without getting sick. Aligning yourself for good health allows good healthy to flow and stay with you.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<strong>\u201cI\u2019m right about canceling my event today since the sky is gray and they\u2019re saying it will rain.\u201d<\/strong> It doesn\u2019t matter what THEY say. If you align your thoughts for no rain, and truly believe it, you can have your event. The more you worry and believe you\u2019re right it should be canceled, the more likely it is to rain.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 <strong>\u00a0\u201cI know I\u2019m right that my job will soon be history because my company has to do layoffs and I was one of the last hired.\u201d<\/strong> If you\u2019re doing a much better job than some other people, your job may be safe. But if you feel right that you\u2019ll be laid off, it\u2019s pretty much definite that you will be. If you&#8217;re aligned with the belief that your boss will find you valuable enough to keep, chances are you won\u2019t lose your job.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a common question people ask: \u201cDo you want to be right or do you want to be happy?\u201d To put a Law of Attraction spin on it,: \u201cDo you want to be right or do you want to be aligned for manifesting what you\u2019d like?\u201d You can rarely be completely sure of an outcome. Things can change fast with a strong change in your belief.<\/p>\n<p>Ask yourself: \u201cDo I want to be right or aligned for the outcome I\u2019d like?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If your answer is the latter, let go of being right in your assumptions and begin to adopt the belief that anything is possible if you believe, and you\u2019ll get what you want, despite circumstances that seem to negate it. We all have to power to use the Law of Attraction to guide our lives down positive paths that make you happy.

Let Me Count the Ways, a She's appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Howard Stern, and Good Morning America and has been quoted in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Marie Claire, and Men\u00b9s Health. 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\/3384","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=3384"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3384\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3440,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3384\/revisions\/3440"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3384"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3384"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3384"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
