The ‘Law of Non-Resistance’ is the first in the series of ‘The 11 Forgotten Laws’ that should expand our understanding of the Law of Attraction. “Whatever you resist, persists”. When you resist something, you actively give it energy. We have talked before about how the Universe deals with absolutes – in other words, there is no distinction between ‘I want’ and ‘I do not want’. You always get the thing in question. That is why the Universe can’t tell the difference between you actively trying to attract something versus you trying to resist something. In either case it’s coming your way.
Does that mean you cannot have undesirable things around you? Not at all. We live in a complex world that we share with other people. As long as you are dealing with other people, you’ll come across desirable and undesirable people, events, and circumstances. The lesson here is not to try to push away the undesirable. Just let go and let it be. Give your energy to what you want.
Until next time,

I have heard people claim that the Law of Attraction does not work for them. It’s a really bizarre statement, since how can a law work for some and not for others. If it is a law, then it must by definition work each and every time, for every person, in every situation. What could be happening is that it works differently to how people expect it to work.
The basic premise is that you attract into your life whatever you are aligned with in terms of your thoughts (conscious and non-conscious) and feelings. You are always attracting things into your life, but you may be attracting things that you don’t necessarily want. That being said, there are other laws in the Universe that have not been popularized to the same extent as the Law of Attraction through the movie The Secret.
I came across some material online by Bob Proctor where he talks about the ‘11 Forgotten Laws’ that relate to the Law of Attraction. The way Bob Proctor put it was that the Law of Attraction is a single ingredient in a cake, but you need other ingredients to make it. Over the next little while I’ll cover the different laws, which will hopefully give you some useful information.
Until next time,

There is this really neat video on youtube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Q_GQqUg6Ts
that explains the 11 dimensions. It took me quite a few viewings to somewhat understand what the heck they are talking about, but to this day I don’t quite get it. In either case the video is quite interesting!
For those of you wondering why I am talking about the 11 dimensions while the video title is about understanding the 10th dimension, it’s because dimensions start at 0, being a point. So 11 dimensions go from 0 to 10.
Enjoy the brain cramp!

Just to be clear, I know very little about this field – I have never met or even talked to a sports psychologist. My guess is that the job of a sports psychologist is to help athletes work through any mental issues that they may have. So for instance, if a player is afraid to shoot the ball and is instead always looking to pass, I imagine that a team psychologist will address that confidence issue in some way. Or if the player had a really bad game, a team psychologist would help the player get over that game and leave it in the past; if the player has a good game, however, maybe they’ll try to work on carrying that momentum forward. Essentially, a sport psychologist tries to get the player’s mind to help him or her instead of getting in the way.
If that is at all accurate, it sounds very similar to psychologists in other fields – they help you get your own mind to play for you and not against. A lot of self-help materials deal with the very same concept. When you hear players give interviews, they often mention ‘faith’ in themselves and their team and ‘belief’ that they will win. The interesting thing is that when two teams compete for the ultimate prize, players on both teams believe that they will win, but only one team wins. Taking Law of Attraction into the count, who wins? The team that believes more? Or the team that doubts less? What about the fans – in town and around the world? Or do all the beliefs and doubts balance out and a better skilled team wins?
I am just curious to hear what you think…
Until next time,

I talked a few times about this important step in the manifestation process, which is creating a picture, or an image, of what your end-goal looks and feels like. Once you have that picture, you can play with it, contemplate on it, add things, take away things, etc. The ‘Ideal Life’ visualization that I described in the past is also based on this very picture. There is one small, important details that turns out some people miss – putting themselves in the picture.
Kenn Gordon told a story as a joke on this very topic in order to illustrate the point. The story goes something like this. This guy – we’ll call him Mike – watched ‘The Secret’ and was fascinated by the Law of Attraction, so he decided to attract a brand-spanking-new red Maserati into his life. So he goes down to his garage and cleans it all up to create a space for this new red Maserati. He puts up a large Maserati poster on the front wall and paints the side wall red. He pictures that red Maserati in his garage twice a day – once in the morning and once before going to bed. After about a month of this, his income is not increasing and the red Maserati seems as far away as it was when he started. That weekend, as Mike is mowing his lawn, his neighbour – we’ll call him Jim – walk up to chit-chat for a few minutes. Seeing the open garage with a clean, neat space, he asks Mike, “Hey, I just got a brand new red Maserati, but I don’t have an extra stall in my garage to put it. Do you mind if I rent that open space from you?” *laughter*
Mike did all the things right, and ended up attracting the red Maserati to his garage…but he forgot to put himself in the picture. Try not to make the same mistake…

It’s nice to feel nice. Actually, what I am trying to say is that it is very useful to feel the way you want to feel – and this is not just a play on words. We talked many times about the importance of feeling in a way that is conducive to creating the experiences you want to have more of. So if you want to bring about more happiness you need to feel happy, to experience more abundance you need to feel more abundant, to experience more love you need to feel loved, etc, etc. So pay attention to the things you do and the little cues in your environment that make you feel a certain way that would be useful to you. Let me give you some examples.
If you find that you feel really connected and appreciated when you hang out with a certain person, make an effort to hang out with them more often (this is of course assuming that you want to experience feelings of connectedness and appreciation more often). If you find that buying lunch for a friend makes you feel abundant, start inviting more people to lunch. If you discover that driving a clean vehicle makes you feel on top of you game, go wash your car more often. If you…you get the idea.
Have fun with this!
Until Monday,

This is one of those phrases that sounds nice and playful, yet contains a lot of power and wisdom. I’ve talked in the past about the vital role that expectations play in our lives, and this phrase, which I heard in a Bob Proctor program, puts it rather eloquently. The idea is pretty simple – your true expectations will create your experience. It’s not what you want, not what you wish for, but what you truly expect that becomes your experience. I don’t know about you, but I’ve had countless situations that reflect that very principle at work.
So, ‘never expect what you don’t desire’! Pretty simple, right? In theory yes…in application it can be more difficult. If it wasn’t we’d never get what we don’t desire. But seriously, if you don’t desire something, why in the world would you expect it? It’s a logical statement, but we are not very logical beings. The same holds for the other side of the equation – ‘never desire what you don’t expect’. If you desire what you don’t expect, you simply will not be able to bring that into your experience. If there is something that you desire, work on expecting it in your life.
Now I’ve got to go work on the lesson in this phrase myself…
Until next time,

Pretty much every book that talks about the concept that we are responsible for what we create and attract into our own lives, says that it is the feelings that get the creative process rolling. Sure, everything begins with a thought, but though by itself will not create much – you need to be emotionally involved in the idea – that means that you need to have corresponding feelings about that idea. More importantly, those feelings need to be supportive of you experiencing and achieving whatever it is that you are after; if you feel like you are incapable or unworthy of the given goal, it’s counter productive and will keep you away from what you desire.
We talked about how vital our subconscious mind is to the creative process. So how do you know what you mind is doing? A great way to check that is to check your feeling. This idea came to a friend of mine who shared it with me, and I thought it was a very insightful observation. If at any point in time you want to get an idea of what you are brining into your experience, ask yourself how do you feel. Feelings are like a temperature gage for your consciousness, that is your conscious and subconscious minds put together. Do you feel happy, loved, joyful, and abundant? Or do you feel sick, lost, confused, and generally pitiful? That is what you are bringing more of into your life.
I think that “How do I feel?” is a great question to ask yourself throughout the day. It will likely provide you with some very interesting insights into what is going on in your mind.
Until next time,

This relates a lot to the yesterday’s post on self-image. I’ve heard this question asked, “what is in your container of certainty?” I thought that ‘the container of certainty’ was a really cool way of expressing the idea.
The concept is pretty simple and straight forward – you will always get whatever is in your container of certainty – no more, no less. You will not get what you want nor what you wish for, but rather what you truly expect. Every time I write something related to this concept, I am in awe from the power that comes once you understand and internalize that idea. Personally I’m starting to get there after all these years, but I’m a slow learner.
So what is in your ‘container of certainty’? What kind of life are you expecting? What kind of relationships are you expecting to have? What kind of work do you expect to be doing? What is your expectation when it comes to health and fitness? Just some food for thought…
Until Monday,

1. Your monthly income became your weekly income?
2. Your annual income became your monthly income?
Bob Proctor asks these two questions in one of his seminars, and the interesting thing is, most people cannot answer them with any amount of detail or clarity. When he asked a couple of people, they responded with “I don’t know…”, mainly because they never really thought about it. And to be honest, when I first heard him ask those questions, I had no answer ready in my mind either.
So here is another question for you. Is it at all surprising that people who do not give much thought to what they would do with drastically increased incomes, never actually increase their incomes significantly?
I gave it quite a bit of thought and figured out exactly where I would channel the increased flow of abundance. I found that exercise quite a lot of fun. If your answers to the above two questions are unclear, I would encourage you to give it a much thought and figure it out. And when you do – when your picture is clear – you will be able to open yourself up to the opportunities to make it so.
Until next time,
