The Law of attraction in the Home Business Arena

By Seth Daley
The Law of Attraction has gained pop iconic status through the movie the secret and people like Oprah Winfrey and Larry King. It has been mentioned on prime time television series and is now available on cable television as well as being all over the internet.

The Law of Attraction simply says "Like attracts like". In other words, if you can imagine it, then you can achieve it. Don't just believe the words... think about some of histories greatest inventions and theories. Once upon a time something as common place as the car was not even part of our imagination. Then someone asked the question... there has to be a better way to ... and viola. The answers came and the car was born. Apply the same question to the airplane. Notice that both inventions (or solutions) were born of simple questions.

If "like attracts like" and believing means achieving, then these principles are a perfect fit for the business world; especially the Home Business World. These concepts have been part of the Small and Home Based Business arena for quite some time now. The successful have perseverance which usually comes from a knowing that they can do just that... succeed.

If your business goals are to be successful and self reliant with the ability to control your own destiny, then the following must be true.. You want control over your finances and your time. If that is not your current reality, then change the questions you are asking yourself.

Anthony Robbins says that if you don't like the answer you're getting "ask a better question" he's right. The better the question you ask, the better the answer you'll get.

By asking better questions you allow The Law of Attraction to start working in your life. Think of it as a coach for your mind. You learn to focus on what works or what could work instead of what doesn't. This allows you to see what is possible instead of what isn't.

If what you think about expands, then finding easy ways to direct your thoughts is the answer. Asking better questions is one way to do that. If you are getting negative feelings when you think about work or starting a business then change the question running through your head. This, by the way works for all situations.

Here are some examples...

Instead of ... "This can't work for me. Nothing ever works for me."

Try this.. "How can this work for me? What can I do differently then I have done before? What have I not tried yet"?

Sounds simple right? That's because it is. Just compare the feelings that you get from both questions in your head and you will see that the first question is disempowering and the second one opens up the to possibilities. It simply feels better. When you feel better, things tend to go better. Put a different way, if like then feeling better has to attract a better situation.

Now let's bring this back around and use the "like attracts like" principle. Keeping in mind that what you think about expands, you first must gain clarity on the business you want to be in. Once you know that you can begin to create it for yourself.

When you're looking for a home business, think about what characteristics of that business would be important to you. Who you want to work with? What kind of hours do you want to keep? Will it product driven or service oriented etc. Looking with purpose will help steer you in the right direction and help you avoid all the hype and get-rich-quick-schemes.

There are some basic things to focus on in order to ask better questions and apply the Law of Attraction to your search. Look for what WILL work instead of trying to avoid what won't. Write down all the things you want your business to be, to do and to have. Paint a picture with words and then create a vision board if you can. This will give you a clear picture in your mind of what you really want.

The clarity you gain by staying on what you want vs. what you don't want will be your greatest ally in achieving success and creating your business, your way.
