DO YOU KNOW THIS ABOUT THE LAW OF ATTRACTION?
Negative vs. Positive Focus: What Does It Really Mean?
You’ve probably heard enough about the Law of Attraction to have a basic idea of how it works. You are also likely to have heard it expressed as “like attracts like,” “your thoughts create your reality,” “you get more of what you focus on,” etc.
Things are never that straight-forward, of course. How you experience the Law of Attraction can be influenced by your relationship with other Universal Laws, such as the Law of Cause and Effect, the Law of Correspondence, and so forth, among countless other factors. I don’t plan to go deep into the Universal laws here, however (if you’d like to delve a bit deeper, I recommend Doreen Virtue’s Divine Magic book). I do want to share that my personal experience with focusing and attracting has revealed more nuances than I used to be familiar with or aware of.
In relation to the Law of Attraction, I always believed the polarity of your focus mattered most; that is to say, whether you focus on the negative or the positive, more of the same happens. Here’s what I discovered the hard way: By merely observing that something unwanted isn’t happening anymore, even if with a positive and grateful attitude, I can bring it right back into my awareness and, consequently, my reality.
For example: Whenever I happen to notice (and feel happy and grateful about) the fact that a noisy neighbor who plays loud music hasn’t been doing it in a while, sure enough, withing days I’ll hear their loud bass again. Or whenever I’m glad that I got better at instinctively choosing a fast lane at the grocery store, instead of the one that will take the longest, I end up by getting stuck in the old pattern of choosing the slowest lane again.
