How to Use the Law of Attraction to Lose Weight and Be FitThe very first step to losing weight and becoming fit is to harness the power of the law of attraction. And you harness the power of the law of attraction simply within your very own mind! Most people, especially women, hold a body image of themselves in their minds that does not correlate with reality. In other words, we usually picture ourselves as bigger than we really are. And this puts the law of attraction in gear to literally make us fatter! The Law of Attraction Physically Exists within the Human BodyNeural scientists have discovered that human thoughts and reactions release specific chemicals in the brain. These chemicals are then distributed to every last cell in the body. Then the chemicals fuse with proteins to literally produce the physical manifestation of the thought. In other words, if you think “I’m fat,” the law of attraction sets up chemical reactions within your body that will literally make you fat! The hypothalamus in the human brain releases neuro-peptides as a byproduct of thinking particular thoughts. When cells are regularly bombarded with the same neuro-peptide over and over again, they become addicted to it. Then you notice in the mirror that you’ve gained weight, and you think “I’m fat!” Then the vicious cycle repeats. When cells divide and multiply, the new cells created have more receptor sites for the addictive, negative neuro-peptide and fewer for healthy nutrients. This is the law of attraction literally at work within your body! (Source: From the movie What the Bleep Do we Know?)To use the law of attraction to lose weight and be fit, you must first stop thinking negative thoughts about your body and insulting it aloud--whether that’s by yourself in front of the mirror or to others. Then you must channel the law of attraction by thinking positive thoughts about your body and showering yourself with compliments. Look in the mirror and say, “I’m beautiful!” Even if you don’t believe it at first, say it anyway. In no time at all, the law of attraction will show you the beautiful person you really are in the mirror. Picture how you want yourself to look--be realistic. Models on magazine covers often have eating disorders, they have breast implants, and their cellulite has been airbrushed away. Use the law of attraction to see yourself with toned muscles and a lean figure. Of course, the law of attraction needs a little physical help from you so that you lose weight even faster. You can’t sit on the couch all day eating Quarter Pounders and Biggie Fries and expect the law of attraction to work at its best! You must back up the law of attraction with a nutritious and delicious diet, plus daily exercise.

How to Use Law of Attraction to Lose Weight and Be Fit
By: David Hooper-6067
One particularly dynamic force manifest in the life of every man and woman is labeled under the name of Law of Attraction (LOA). According to this law, the thoughts and attitudes you engage in are reflected as such in the way our lifestyle grows either satisfactory or disconcerting. In other words, opportune outcomes are favored by attitudes situated at the same level with the anticipated consequences. How will this help you lose weight and keep fit? The matter is actually incredibly simple and commonsensical, if you give it a positive thought: you only need to think about it in an agreeable manner, i.e. a manner that expects positives results.Subsequently, you need to put a real, focused thought on what you want. You need to really want it. If you think that the time has come to lose weight, you are required by LOA to actually want to lose weight. Therefore, don’t focus on what you don’t have: don’t think about the fact that you aren’t slim or fit; on the contrary, favorably contemplate the idea that you will soon lose weight and will actually manage to maintain a fit condition. In other words, if at this moment you feel wretched you haven’t lost weight yet, the time is to put an end to such feelings. Only focus on what you will certainly achieve. A positive attitude will always motivate all of the actions in which you engage in order to maintain a fit figure or to lose weight.Take the following two mindsets:1. “Oh, God! Look at me! I am so fat that I cannot even stand myself! I will never manage to lose all of this horrible weight!”2. “I know I have my weight condition under control. My weight does not control me, I will always control it. I feel so good about myself.”Which of the two attitudes would you approach? Would you go for feeling completely miserable about all aspects concerning your weight or would you rather look at it – and at your entire life as a matter of fact – with a relaxed, self-confident eye? If you have opted for the first attitude, you have started on the wrong foot. It’s high time you reconsidered your approach. You will see that as soon as you start feeling good about yourself LOA will set in motion the aspects favorable for weight loss and keep fit purposes. As a result, LOA will create the framework for a weight loss-keep fit constant program. The favorable thing about LOA is that it efficiently teaches you that the manner in which you choose to lose weight doesn’t really matter. What matters is given by the reasons why you are doing it. As long as these reasons are given a positive touch, they will be positively reflected in the end results on all of your actions. Therefore, you need not worry about how you will manage to keep fit – you are either attending aerobics classes or you are controlling you diet; the means doesn’t hold the chief importance: focus on the beautiful reasons you are keeping fit. Yes, you are already losing weight; you are already fit; this is what you need to think about. LOA will only act in agreement with your thoughts.

Using the Law of Attraction to Overcome Anxiety
By: Jon Mercer
It's no big secret that I'm very much a "power of positive thinking" kind of guy. But beyond that, I'm a believer in a life philosophy that is commonly known as "The Law of Attraction." The Law of Attraction has become a buzzword in business and personal development over the last few years, and there many different interpretations of this principle, ranging from the very sensible, to the more radical, "out there" ideas of some new age "gurus."Personally, I was first introduced to this approach by the writings of world-famous psychologist Albert Ellis who never actually used the term "Law of Attraction," but was in fact describing the same phenomena.Ellis shook the psychological world on its head by proclaiming "You are what you think about." His work has been nothing short of groundbreaking; one recent survey by the APA (American Psychological Association) showed Ellis to be the second-most influential psychologist of all time (ahead of even Freud!, and second only by humanist pioneer Carl Rogers).So my belief in attraction is based more on the clinical and observable than wild-eyed conjecture, and the more I have studied this philosophy, the more my life has improved--every area of my life, including my former anxiety problem.So what is the Law of Attraction? At its core, it is based on the scientific principle that "like molecules tend to attract," or more simply "like attracts like." This is not conjecture; scientists have understood this basic principle of nature for ages. But the Law of Attraction takes this one step further: to the level of thought. In other words, your thoughts attract or repel just as molecules do; you have literally attracted everything that is in your life to you based on your habitual way of thinking. Or as Albert Ellis described it, "You become what you think about." Right about now, you might be thinking, "wait a minute Jon; are you telling me I attracted my anxiety and/or panic attacks into my life?"The short answer is, yes. Your habitual way of thinking has attracted anxiety and panic into your life. And when you change your habitual way of thinking, you will change what you are attracting--including the anxiety.Now some people are very uncomfortable with this thought. It places the responsibility squarely on the individual, and many people would rather not accept this responsibility. It's easier in some ways to assume the cause of our difficulties is outside of us, not based on what we are doing (and thinking). But in the end, this "victim" approach is unsatisfying. Without accepting your role in creating the anxiety, you will never overcome it. Step #1 is always accepting that YOU are responsible for the anxiety--every bit of it. There can be no further progress until this concept is both understood and accepted.Step #2 is learning to attract peace of mind into your life and to stop focusing on things that cause anxiety, or in fact, anything related to anxiety. This is achieved by becoming aware of what you give your attention to in your day-to-day life. I call this "being an effective gatekeeper of your mind."What it all comes down to is this: you can't attract peace of mind and happiness into your life by focusing on anxiety and problems. It just doesn't work that way. You must learn to focus your attention exclusively on good things in order to attract good things. And this is not nearly as difficult as you might think. Once you become aware of what is "on your radar" on a daily basis, it gets easier and easier to shift your attention to other things that feel better, and produce better results. Remember it's all about what you are consistently giving your attention to. You really do "become what you think about," so stop giving your attention to things you don't want in your life.

Business Laws Unveiled
Submitted by: rumsey
Each and every person in this world must have at least once thought about opening some sort of business to increase his or her income. No matter if you are thinking about opening a small family business or a larger company, you cannot do anything but obey the business laws! If you don’t, you and your business can get into serious trouble!In case you are under the impression that you need to be a graduate of a business law college or have a business law major in order to understand and use some of the basic ideas of small business law and corporate business law, you are making a very big mistake. Perhaps you have heard form the news and the headlines that employment law for business is one of the most dangerous fields, as a person can easily break the business laws and regulations.The least any business man should know is that he or she must meet the general international business laws. You must also consider the export laws, import laws and but, by all means, one must obey to the specific laws of the country in which your business is situated.Should you own a company that operates in your home country, then you must get to understand the business laws there. If you cannot manage to get a business permit or license, you can find yourself in a great amount of trouble, as your business can get shut down. Not to speak about the inconveniences due to business and hefty fines and penalties!If you thought that Internet and online businesses do not need to take these rules seriously, then you can have the unpleasant surprise of getting serious problems. Of course these types of business need to obey the business laws, but they are called Internet compliance laws. Therefore, should you be operating a website of any kind and do not care about all these rules and regulations, criminal prosecution and hefty fines are waiting for you right across the corner.Well, if all these bad things have made you fear doing business of any kind, you must know that no one expects you to be able to navigate the complexities of any type of business law by yourself! The best option for you is asking for help from a qualified professional of a business law firm. This way you will never get into trouble of any kind!
