To Change Or?

Viewed from a wider perspective, I would say that the law of attraction is the head and tail of personal development.

We are all looking for success (at the very least most of us are) in one area of life or the other. It could be more money, better relationships, a healthier mind and body etc. What we come to realise once we decide to change these conditions in our lives is that we have to go back to the point of conception and change the cause and hence the effect.

It is not always an easy thing to change beliefs you have held all your life as fact, habits that now run on auto-pilot and therefore the thoughts and feelings that arise from both. The only thing that that could perhaps make it easier to change is the promise of a more fulfilling life especially in the areas you're looking to improve.

I think it is a noble quest worth the effort :)

Work from Home with The Secret

The online money-making programs are numerous to say the very least.The same goes for the programs that introduce their business through more information on the law of attraction guise. It then becomes absolutely confusing as to which way to go. Most of these programs (if not all) have a joining fee and others a renewable monthly membership fee so you obviously cant join all of them!

I've realised that the best way to decide what you will go for is to pick a program that will cover most of what you are interested in, or will complement your main objective. If your main interest is data entry and surveys, pick a program that covers both and stick with it till it produces a positive income. This is an example of such a program. This can be complemented with a marketing biased program to help you get the most of your earlier program, and you can find a good one here.

All in all, I believe that being focused is what will eventually get you results, and that is exactly what I am doing. Gaining focus.

Make Money at Home with The Secret

So how do you know which programs to trust and which ones to wave goodbye to? For the most part it is gut instinct, the proverbial little voice inside all of us. If your intention is to get a legitimate program, trust your gut to give you direction. The rest is mostly common sense. You get what you're looking for, if you come across programs that look interesting but they are not your main focus, put it on the back burner. For now.

Making Money at Home

'The secret' has become a popular route for introducing 'make money at home' programs. It is seen as an unbeatable partnership that will deliver all that are willing, from the miseries of an unfulfilled life. The law of attraction serves to change the mindset from observing the 'obvious' and reacting to it, to daring to dream of the not so obvious and believing that it can be achieved.

The making money at home programs generally promise the kind of money that many would not make from a nine to five. The only issue that arises is that they dont tell you just how much work is involved, atleast at the beginning. Many of us seem to find the idea of effortless money irresistable. And why not, right? :)

The Secret or The Scam

It goes without saying that no matter how beneficial a discovery, it'll be met with resistance. Actually, the more ground-breaking it is the stiffer the resistance. I believe the naysayers cannot possibly perceive of a life where they are completely responsible for their own lives. They'd rather blame their parents for not raising them right, the govt for not providing for them or their dog that refuses to be house-trained :)

On the other hand, they could be 'one time' believers who embraced the law of attraction but never took corresponding action. There's no two ways about this, you have to act in ways that will put you in the path of what you desire. And you need to give it time.

It is not easily possible to spend twenty years with a negative or indifferent mindset and expect to change that with two days of positive thinking. In the same way, changing current results borne out of wrong thinking will consequently take more than a couple of months of right thinking, feeling and doing. Its a process that needs reversing and then set right.

Discovering the Secret

Its been about six months since my first encounter with The Secret (abit belated you might say, but if you have no thought of something in particular it will pass right infront of your nose without detection!), and I am only just now learning to separate substance from fluff on the internet.

So far, I think the easiest way to tell whether someone through their website is truly interested in you making real progress or they're just riding on the back of the law of attraction euphoria is to rate their offer. If they're offering vague advice or reproducing everything you've heard before, close that tab amd never look back.

However, if they have action-oriented suggestions that can start you off right away before purchasing a thing, you might be onto something.
Imagine my sceptism when I came across a website claiming that there was a 'flaw' in the movie, The Secret (then again I thought that could be the reason it has yet to work for me :))

Turns out it was John Assaraf, featured in the movie, making the claim. He's actually giving away a free DVD on the subject and you can get your own copy here. It comes accompanied with a workbook to get you started in the right direction by pretty much holding your hand.

Attracting yet?

Am I alone in being overwhelmed with material about the law of attraction? I believe not. Every time I venture through my inbox, there's an avalanche of emails from 'experts' on the subject. The interesting thing is how there are numerous styles of writing that always leave you thinking you're reading something totally new and different.

Having watched the movie 'The Secret' I (and possibly millions of others in the world!) came away infused with ENERGY by the new-found wisdom after having discovered the master key. Since then, my interest in the subject means I get more information from a zillion sources than I know what to do with. I have been swayed every which way by 'new insights' and thought 'Oh yeah, that makes sense', 'so that's what I should do' and my personal favorite, 'aah, now I get it!'

Consequently, I have changed my way of thinking, my way of applying the secret and my way of understanding the law of attraction so many times that my focus was completely shot. I have finally become aware that with no definite point of focus, you will only get more of the same, in this case total confusion.

I am still a believer though :)
