How The Circle of Influence Concept Applies To The Law Of Attraction

by

Have you heard of Stephen Covey’s concept of Circle of Concern and Circle of Influence (from “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People”)? This is a great way to focus your efforts when working with the Law of Attraction. The Circle of Concern contains all those things of interest to us essentially. It includes everything that happens in the economy, at the PTA, what others do at work, etc. The Circle of Influence is within the Circle of Concern. However, it contains those things about which we can do something. Let’s see how that applies to the Law of Attraction.

The Circle of Influence is where you actually have influence on things. You can change your life by concentrating on what’s in your Circle of Influence. When you veer outside of that circle and start talking about or worrying about everything in your Circle of Concern, your focus is dissipated and the energy you need to put on to things and events you can change is also spread around. It’s like trying to light a fire on a desert island by hoping the sun will find the right branch and then it will light on fire.

On that island, you stand a much better chance of starting a fire by using a magnifying glass (or your own eyeglasses as you’ve seen in the movies). That glass pulls the energy of the sun and compresses it down to one single area of concentration where it can point all its heat and start your fire.

Working with the Law of Attraction is similar. Remember that the Law of Attraction is always working – whether you’re aware of it or not or whether you believe in it or not. Many people think they are “working” it but they flounder around from thinking ‘this’ to thinking ‘that’ depending on the day or on their moods. That is why we teach that you have to identify your own goals and then define them in tremendous detail. That way you have impressed your subconscious mind with exactly what you want.

Once you’ve embedded this goal in your mind, your primary job is to continue to focus on achieving it and never waver from this focus. How do you do that? Well, you concentrate on the things that are within your Circle of Influence, NOT those that are outside of this circle. Being overly concerned and obsessed with things in your Circle of Concern will keep your energy and vibrations from pouring out to the Universe like a spotlight. If you stay within that circle where you actually have control of what happens, you will be able to bring about your desires and do so more quickly. For this is the location where you have influence and control.

Apply focus in everything you do. Stay within your Circle of Influence and let things happen as they will within your Circle of Concern. Do everything you can to ensure that your Circle of Influence is powerful and positive to set the stage for the Law of Attraction to work to your advantage.

This is only a taste of the Law of Attraction. Did you know that the Law of Attraction is only one of many universal laws that control our lives? Find out how to create the life you want. Visit The Art of Making Things Happen.

How To Get Anything You Want Using The Law of Supply & Demand

by

There is always enough supply to meet every demand. The Universe has plenty to provide. You just have to ask for it. One reason you don’t have as much as you want is that you’re never taught to ask for it. Another reason is that you think it’s wrong or selfish to ask for things (you’re taught that too as a child). And I’ll bet you also may not know what to ask for. I’ll be talking about each of these points here.

Even if you can’t see it, there is plenty of supply out there. Often what happens is that there is a demand and as a result another alternative is created. For example, if you allow yourself to believe that the world has run out of energy sources, you may create those circumstances. Look at the fact that hybrid cars and electric cars were created when the US started having problems with oil supply. That’s what happens. So rest assured that there is always enough supply for any demand – even yours!

There is a famous quote from the Bible – “Ask and it shall be given.” That is the truth no matter who you are or what you believe. You are never taught to ask for more. In fact, you were probably told that it’s not nice to ask for more than “your due.” If you believe in the Universal Laws (one of which is the Law of Attraction), then you should try asking for what it is you want.

Were you taught that it is not nice or selfish to ask for things? Were you always told that you should be content with what you have because there are others who don’t have anything? If so, this is a limiting belief that you must work to clear from your subconscious. It is right for you to ask for whatever it is you want or need. Make the affirmation “this is what I choose and it is mine by Divine Right.” Remember that if there is always enough supply for any demand, then everyone can have whatever it is they want – they just have to ask for it.

Do you know what it is you really want to ask for? Are you one of those who bounces back and forth about what you want? One day you want a better job. The next week you want a raise in the same job. Then another week, you decide you don’t want to work at all. How on earth is the Universe supposed to know what it is you really want? You have to be able to determine what you want and then you have to define specifics about that particular desire. Don’t just say “I want a new car” because if you do, you’re liable to get a car that’s not really what you want or one that you’re happy with. Write down what color, what make, how much horsepower, how many doors, what miles per gallon etc. Write down everything about your goal. Then you focus on it and you’ll be much more likely to receive it.

The next logical step is to learn how the universal laws all interact and how you can actually put them into action to create what you want in your life. You can find out exactly how to create your ideal life in The Art of Making Things Happen

Law of Concsiousness – Part 2

by

Here’s the second part of The Law of Consciousness – start putting the principles in these two posts into practice today!

see who was the authority in your life. This authority still affects your life today. When you realize you were told things that you don’t choose to believe, then you can use denials and affirmations. That is the Law of Mind Action, which means to deliberately make choices to change your belief system to what you want to believe.

We’re learning to live by choice. We want to live by choice. It’s the job for our soul growth to get back to the Garden of Eden through our own choices. The Garden of Eden is whatever we are and want that will make our lives happy, whole, healthy and complete. That is what we call prosperity and this idea of wholeness we want our lives to be and to become.

Look at the positive side of all of the people, friends and relatives who told you things. We have within us ideas that say, “When you grow up, this is what you can be.”

Whatever our parents were is put into our minds and thoughts. If our parents were in the medical field, we have a tendency to dream of that when we grow up. We want that also. If our parents were teachers, professors or firefighters, that may be what we want.

Our mind as a five-year-old could have geared us toward that simply because we took pride in what our parents were. Now you’ve reached an age where that doesn’t apply to you anymore. You may not want to be a surgeon, nurse, doctor or teacher. Your soul may have come in for some other purpose in life.

We have this purpose deeply ingrained within us. It will cause us to be deeply dissatisfied if we are not on our chosen path. We chose that path before we came into this life experience. Look at your chosen field and say, “Is this what I really want to do, or is this something someone else wanted me to do?”

What is our belief system around what we thought our destiny was meant to be? Frequently we discover that what we thought was our work on planet Earth is not really the work we enjoy doing. Our life presence is different for each of us. Each of us has dreams, goals and ideals that are born with us.

I firmly believe that each of us has a Divine plan. What we have grown with has been a part of that Divine plan. If we had much to overcome as we grew, it gave us strength. Maybe we had a lot of situations growing up that caused us to be strong and determined. That will be very beneficial for what you want to do in your life and how successful you are.

That is a part of what is buried in your subconscious. If you were told as a child that you were stubborn or hardheaded, it can be a benefit to you in your chosen field of work. In a relationship, being stubborn and hardheaded is not very good. It interferes with the flexibility we need and the dreams and goals we share with our partners. Remember, we have different ideas, dreams and goals to manifest.

There are four things that we have to do:

1. We come into this world to master our physical bodies and have health and harmony of the body.

2. We come into this world to have wonderful relationships.

3. We come into this world to have financial supply.

4. We come into this world to have soul awareness that will give us the pleasures and attitudes that are ours by Divine right.

When we list these things, we realize that everything we do each day is guiding us toward or away from these goals. It makes us more aware of how we can make the changes in our lives. If we determine what is buried in our subconscious, we can look at it and say, “Do I choose to believe that any longer? Is this something I don’t wish to have in my life?”

If I had a relative who died early, it doesn’t mean everybody who came after that person will have the same health problems. We can change that belief. We live according to the God belief within us and according to when our job is finished. When we stay aware, we are more able to go into different kinds of work to do the things we were placed here to do.

We simply need to ask, “Show me the next step of my Divine plan. I’m not finished yet, God. Show me another step. Show me where I’m going. Show me what I’m doing. Show me what is next.”

All of the things in the subconscious will rise up within us to point out the direction we are meant to take and the new ideals, goals and dreams that are possible to do, believe, say and have.

We need to realize that it is the attitude and the feeling of life within us that is this God presence or this Energy. It is this wonderful thing within us that we call the Christ Presence and the spirit of God. It is this Divine Spark that constantly guides and directs us when we get out of the way of our error belief systems and points of view.

Metaphysics is a wonderful place for us to put into effect that which we believe. We can pour energy into our affirmations. We can visualize and claim our good.

If we believe there is a loving energy that will give to us all of the things we choose to have in our lives, then our solutions will be the proper ones.

If we believe in barrier, overcoming and struggle, we need to let go of those ideas. Those are not truth ideas. God does not place barriers in front of us. God places ease, comfort and wonderful solutions in front of us. The ideas, dreams and goals in front of us are placed there for us to have lives of pleasantness, peace and joy. This is your life.

When you remove all barriers and inaccuracies from the subconscious mind, the Law of Consciousness begins to work and attract all of the things your heart desires. It will attract to you health, happiness, harmony, peace of mind, joy, love and all of the good that is yours by Divine Right. You can accept that and love it. Now is the time.

Beyond The Law of Attraction – The Other Laws

by

Since “The Secret” came out people think that the Law of Attraction is “it” – the only way to make things happen in your life.

Well, that’s just not true. There are many Universal (or Spiritual) Laws.

Today we’ll talk about The Law of Consciousness – part 1.
Law of Consciousness, the first Law we study. It gives you the ideas, knowledge and understanding to help you determine what your life is all about.

As you look back on your life, you can see how the Law of Consciousness plays a part. It helped make things happen that you did not wish to happen, as well as the unexpected, wonderful surprises that occurred.

you have accept that, from the time of the embryo, we hear. Scientific research has explained that, within the soul and brain of the infant, is consciousness. They hear even while in the womb.

It doesn’t start at birth. It begins even before that. From before birth onward, the things you heard, thought and felt created a pattern within you. This includes everything you had explained to you, even from television and radio.

Everything you have heard, thought, felt or read or anything from your senses makes an impact on the subconscious. Your subconscious simply plays back like a computer what you or someone else has put into it.

Maybe you heard as an infant that you look just like a parent. When you grew to be 10 to 15 years old, you discovered that parent had some problems, attitudes, feelings or habits you didn’t want in your life. If it was ingrained in you from birth that you were just like that parent, then you have problems with the same things your parent did.

It’s very easy to remove yourself from these problems when you realize and recognize what they are. Recognition is the greatest key to change.

We have four major areas to master:

1. Our physical body. We have to master health and harmony in our bodies.

2. Relationships. We have to learn to harmonize and be at peace.

3. Money. We have to master our financial assets.

4. Soul awareness. Our soul awareness constantly brings us new information, wisdom and understanding of the activities and the work we came here to do.

We are constantly attracting and manifesting results according to our beliefs. During our earth learning process, we have two ways to master physical results. Both are necessary as we develop toward our total soul potential.

1. Attraction. We attract to us what we are.

2. Manifestation. We mold things from the invisible substance to the visible.

This is where we sometimes become confused. We say we will attract something into our lives. What we really mean is that we want to manifest it. Sometimes we say we will manifest it when we mean we will attract it.

Both are necessary. We want to attract people and situations into our lives. We want to attract results. We also want to manifest a great financial supply and ideas of wisdom and understanding. We want to manifest the ideas and inspiration that allow us the newness and excitement of life.

The Law of Consciousness is the first and most important. We develop, ask and interpret things that we already believe in. We realize there are many we don’t choose to hold onto in our lives. There are many things we believe that we don’t want to believe. There are many things that are in error.

Belief systems are brought into our lives by many different methods. We have what our parents, ministers and teachers have told us. Other people gave us what they believed to be fact and truth.

Facts change according to new understandings and new knowledge. They change according to the power and presence we give these ideas within us.

We have the old ideas and thoughts of diseases that people are supposed to have throughout their lives. There are a certain percentage of people who are supposed to have colds or the flu.

These negative aspects do not have to apply to us. They were given to us at a time when our soul did not know that we were able to evaluate those things and bring them to a different solution for ourselves.

In the Law of Consciousness, we want to look at these attitudes and ideals that no longer apply to us. Find a pencil and paper.

I’d like you to do a discovery. The Law of Consciousness will help you discover what your beliefs are. This is the most important Law in your life.

Many things were given to you at a time when you were not able to discern truth from fiction, fact from fiction or absolute from non-absolute. Today you see with a different viewpoint that puts you in charge of your life. This energy we call “God” can change and transform everything you choose to transform in your life.

With your pencil and paper, I want you to begin a list. We take on the qualities of the people around us. List your relatives, beginning with your parents. Then list your parents’ prominent qualities. If you were raised by someone other than your parents, use their names.

If your mother’s prominent quality was gentleness, put it down. If your father’s prominent quality was generosity, put it down. It is important in how you perceive your own life to be. If your parents’ dominant qualities were abusive, angry or hostile, write those down.

You’ll show yourself how you relate to your parents and children. Your parents’, grandparents’, great-grandparents’ and great-great grandparents’ belief systems, fears, anxieties and religions have all been passed down to you. Even what you like to eat comes from them. Everything comes from what you were born into.

If you’re still having the same experiences you had as a child or are still surrounded by the same kinds of people, those lessons haven’t been learned yet. That is the importance of the Law of Consciousness.

After you list your parents, think of your grandparents, if you knew them well. What were their qualities? Were they the same as your parents? Did you have a grandparent who was angry or hostile or didn’t like to have children around? Were your grandparents loving, kind and happy? Were they wonderful? Did you prefer to be with them? Next list your aunts’, uncles’ and siblings’ qualities.

Find the pattern. If you have 10 people in your life who are very unproductive, what are your chances for success? If you have many relatives who are go-getters, movers and shakers, what is your chance of being successful? Look at both sides, the productive and the unproductive.

Now look at your school friends growing up. What were their qualities? As you grew older, there were things like jealousy and boyfriends or girlfriends. What did you attract in that time and place? Did you attract relatives, friends and schoolmates who were happy, harmonious, loving and kind?

Did you attract angry people? If you’ve had abusive people in your life, are you attracting more abusive people in spite of having said to yourself, “I never again want anybody in my life who treats me this way.”?

When you study the Law of Consciousness, look back on your life to see why you attracted people and situations for your learning experiences. You have to handle them properly so you don’t need to have that experience again.

Once you have listed your relatives’, parents’ and friends’ prominent qualities, you have a pattern of positive and/or negative. Usually you will have both. You’ll have the very positive people who told you as a child, “You can do anything you choose to do. You have to believe in yourself.” You’ll also have people who said, “You’re too little. You can’t do that. You’re not strong enough. You’re too weak. You’re not healthy enough.”

Those things may have been said to you at a time when you were very much open to other people’s opinions. They’ve made your life what it is today.

Think of the quotes you heard. They gave you your ideas of lack and limitations. They told you what you think about money, relationships and the physical body. All of the things you’ve ever been told are important.

A teacher can influence us so strongly in the first and second grade. That is the time we’re open to any authority. Once you discover the ideas you have, especially the negative, you can say, “Which authority person told me I couldn’t, or I was too little? How important a part did that authority person play in my life? Was it someone I knew just a little or someone I was with everyday?”

There’s much, much more….so keep tuning in…,

Easter

by

Happy Easter everyone.

I thought I would put up an excerpt from Anne’s discussion on The Law of Forgiveness when we did Working With The Law. It’s very meaningful to me and hopefully will help you too.

“Easter and Forgiveness. I believe when Jesus said on the Cross, “Father forgive them, they know not what they do,” that at that moment he was in a high state of exultation. He realized he had created what these people were doing.

He expected to be killed in order to be remembered. That was his job. That is what he came here for. He also didn’t want the people who were jabbing him with the spear and placing the crown of thorns on his head to get a karmic feedback.

What he meant was, “Father, I created this for myself so that this situation would come to pass. Let go of what they are doing. Don’t make it a karmic debt so they don’t have to pay again for what I created.”

Think of the people the people you thought hurt you and what you carried around with you for so long. You need to say, “God, I set that up. I did it. I was fearful, so I created this situation. I expected pain and suffering so I created somebody to bring it to me. How could I do that to myself?” We had some mistakes in our thought processes. We thought that was normal.

It’s not normal to cause hurt to yourself or to others. It is not normal to cause suffering either to yourself or others.

I believe the ultimate goal is learning how to try to out give God. We need to be kind to people. We need to be happy and loving. We need to have good relationships. We can have all of the things we have been searching for and maybe thought were impossible. They’re not impossible.

We need to practice what we want to be in order to become what we want to be. We need to let go of the pain we set up for ourselves to get rid of fears and anxieties of what people might do to us. If we don’t expect it, it can’t be done.

Our understanding is in the process of changing. We don’t have anger, hostility and fear in our lives. We don’t have to explain to other people how they need to behave.

We set boundaries for people who don’t know or have fears or don’t expect people to be kind. We set boundaries so that we stop any of those fears. We don’t want to let those fears attach themselves to us. That is our responsibility.

We do that by saying, “I do not choose to have that in my life. I do not choose to react out of the past. I do not choose to experience hurt feelings, pain or suffering. Therefore I will not attract people in my life who think it is okay to hurt others.”

This is a whole new step for us to be able to live in this kind of life without blame, guilt, fears or anxieties. We want to live a life without thoughts that we need to repent or give up and let go and forgive.”
