The Law Of Attraction

Anyone ever heard of this law of attraction http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_Attraction I've heard of it on a bunch of sites that you could sorta call "self help/new agish" websites.

I really don't think it's literal in the sense of objects manifesting but I think we tend to notice certain ideas more when we really are confident and picture are selves at are goal, we tend to think more like if we were successfull, this claims to be the "secret" that a bunch of highly intellectualy successfull people have used in the past, to "attract" more of the things they want into their lives.

By the way if it wasn't posted on so many sites so many times I'd take it as bs, other then that I tend to think it's based around important mindsets to have in order to succeed

While, I'd say that dreaming of what you want is a step in the right direction... I can guarantee that you won't get any results unless you put in the work for it, that is just how life works. People are always looking looking for shortcuts, but the truth is, if things were that easy, everyone would have met their goals.

Its like my coach used to say, " People don't their goals because they are willing to trade the things they want in their future, for the things they want at the moment."

I saw 'The Secret' a couple of months ago which is basically about the application of the Law of Attraction. It is something that i have experienced before but i think a lot of people dismiss it because they see it as a kind of wish and click your fingers where personally i think its more about being aware of your mind and your energy and what you focus it on.

I notice it a lot because i keep diaries and on reading back i can't help but notice i often get exactly what i wanted, different situations, and i just know that i'm attracting them. This doesn't mean that i tell myself i'm going to win the lottery and in a blink it happens, its more like, magnetism i guess, attraction. Just think about the people you have connected to in your life for seemingly 'no reason' and how dramatically your lifes course has been effected.

I found this really interesting when it came to dreaming because it occurred to me that since both our reality and our dream reality are effected by the power of our mind, this same principal would probably work within a dream. So essentially our LD's could work as a "training ground" for how our mind effects our waking reality.

What do you guys think?

I kind of thought dream control was similer because the more you expect it to happen the more it probably will, it's kind of hard to beleive in the law of attraction as a whole becauce I like thinking about certain negitive things and compare them to positive things and it gives my reality and I like to know the true reality not just deny the bad things in life, plus if your skeptical of the law of attraction it won't work to it's full patential, which would suck if it was real.
