Law of Attraction Classics: Your Invisible Power - How I Attracted Twenty Thousand Dollars - Genevieve Behrend

By : Robert C. Worstell
In the laboratory of experience in which my newly revealed relation to Divine operation was to be tested, the first problem was a financial one. My income was a stipulated one, quite enough for my everyday needs.

But it did not seem sufficient to enable me to go comfortably to England where Troward lived, and remain for an indefinite period to study with so great a teacher as he must be. So before inquiring whether Troward took pupils or whether I would be eligible in case he did, I began to use the paragraph I had memorized.

Daily, in fact, almost hourly, the words were in my mind: \"My mind is a center of Divine operation, and Divine operation means expansion into something better than has gone before.\"

From the Edinburgh Lectures I had read something about the Law of Attraction, and from the Chapter of \"Causes and Conditions\" I had gleaned a vague idea of visualizing.

So every night, before going to sleep, I made a mental picture of the desired $20,000. Twenty $1,000 bills were counted over each night in my bedroom, and then, with the idea of more emphatically impressing my mind with the fact that this twenty thousand dollars was for the purpose of going to England and studying with Troward, I wrote out my picture, saw myself buying my steamer ticket, walking up and down the ship\'s deck from New York to London, and, finally, saw myself accepted as Troward\'s pupil.

This process was repeated every morning and every evening, always impressing more and more fully upon my mind Troward\'s memorized statement: \"My mind is a center of Divine operations.\" I endeavored to keep this statement in the back part of my consciousness all the time with no thought in mind as how the money might be obtained.
Probably the reason why there was no thought of the avenues through which the money might reach me was because I could not possibly imagine where the $20,000 would come from. So I simply held my thought steady and let the power of attraction find its own ways and means.

One day while walking on the street, taking deep breathing exercises, the thought came: \"My mind is surely a center of Divine operation. If God fills all space, then God must be in my mind also; if I want this money to study with Troward that I may know the truth of Life, then both the money and the truth must be mine, though I am unable to feel or see the physical manifestations of either; still,\" I declared, \"it must be mine.\"

While these reflections were going on in my mind, there seemed to come up from within me the thought: \"I am all the substance there is.\" Then, from another channel in my brain the answer seemed to come, \"Of course, that\'s it; everything must have its beginning in mind.

The \"I\" the Idea, must be the only one and primary substance there is, and this means money as well as everything else.\" My mind accepted this idea, and immediately all the tension of mind and body was relaxed.

There was a feeling of absolute certainty of being in touch with all the power Life has to give. All thought of money, teacher, or even my own personality, vanished in the great wave of joy which swept over my entire being.

I walked on and on with this feeling of joy steadily increasing and expanding until everything about me seemed aglow with resplendent light. Every person I passed was illuminated as I was. All consciousness of personality had disappeared, and in its place there came that great and almost overwhelming sense of joy and contentment.

That night when I made my picture of the twenty thousand dollars it was with an entirely changed aspect. On previous occasions, when making my mental picture, I had felt that I was waking up something within myself. This time there was no sensation of effort. I simply counted over the twenty thousand dollars.

Then, in a most unexpected manner, from a source of which I had no consciousness at the time, there seemed to open a possible avenue through which the money might reach me.

At first it took great effort not to be excited. It all seemed so wonderful, so glorious to be in touch with supply. But had not Troward cautioned his readers to keep all excitement out of their minds in the first flush of realization of union with Infinite supply, and to treat this fact as a perfectly natural result that had been reached through our demand?

This was even more difficult for me than it was to hold the thought that \"all the substance there is, I am; I (idea) am the beginning of all form, visible or invisible.\"

Just as soon as there appeared a circumstance which indicated the direction through which the twenty thousand dollars might come, I not only made a supreme effort to regard the indicated direction calmly as the first sprout of the seed I had sown in the absolute, but left no stone unturned to follow up that direction by fulfilling my part. By so doing one circumstance seemed naturally to lead to another, until, step-by-step, my desired twenty thousand dollars was secured. To keep my mind poised and free from excitement was my greatest effort.

This first concrete fruition of my study of Mental Science as expounded by Troward\'s book had come by a careful following of the methods he had outlined. In this connection, therefore, I can offer to the reader no better gift than to quote Troward\'s book, \"The Edinburgh Lectures,\" from which may be derived a complete idea of the line of action I was endeavoring to follow.

In the chapter on Causes and Conditions he says: \"To get good results we must properly understand our relation to the great impersonal power we are using. It is intelligent, and we are intelligent, and the two intelligences must co-operate.

We must not fly in the face of the Law expecting it to do for us what it can only do through us; and we must therefore use our intelligence with the knowledge that it is acting as the instrument of a greater intelligence; and because we have this knowledge we may and should cease from all anxiety as to the final result.

In actual practice we must first form the ideal conception of our object with the definite intention of impressing it upon the universal mind -it is this thought that takes such thought out of the region of mere casual fancies -and then affirm that our knowledge of the Law is sufficient reason for a calm expectation of a corresponding result, and that therefore all necessary conditions will come to us in due order.

We can then turn to the affairs of our daily life with the calm assurance that the initial conditions are either there already or will soon come into view. If we do not at once see them, let us rest content with the knowledge that the spiritual prototype is already in existence and wait till some circumstance pointing in the desired direction begins to show itself.

It may be a very small circumstance, but it is the direction and not the magnitude that is to be taken into consideration.

As soon as we see it we should regard it as the first sprouting of the seed sown in the Absolute, and do calmly, and without excitement, whatever the circumstances seem to require, and then later on we shall see that this doing will in turn lead to a further circumstance in the same direction, until we find ourselves conducted, step by step, to the accomplishment of our object.

In this way the understanding of the great principle of the Law of Supply will, by repeated experiences, deliver us more and more completely out of the region of anxious thought and toilsome labor and bring us into a new world where the useful employment of all our powers, whether mental or physical, will only be an unfolding of our individuality upon the lines of its own nature, and therefore a perpetual source of health and happiness; a sufficient inducement, surely, to the careful study of the laws governing the relation between the individual and the Universal Mind.\"

To my mind, then as now, this quotation outlines the core and center of the method and manner of approach necessary for coming in touch with Infinite supply. At least it, together with the previously quoted statement, \"My mind is a center of Divine operation,\" etc., constituted the only apparent means of attracting to myself the twenty thousand dollars.

My constant endeavor to get into the spirit of these statements, and to attract to myself this needed sum, was about six weeks, at the end of which time I had in my bank the required twenty thousand dollars. This could be made into a long story, giving all the details, but the facts, as already narrated, will give you a definite idea of the magnetic condition of my mind while the twenty thousand dollars was finding its way to me.

Law of Attraction Classics: Mental Chemistry - Truth, Mental Power, and Solutions - Charles Haanel

By : Robert C. Worstell
Truth is the imperative condition of all well being. To be sure, to know the truth and to stand confidently on it, is a satisfaction beside which no other is comparable. Truth is the underlying verity, the condition precedent to every successful business or social relation.

Every act not in harmony with Truth, whether through ignorance or design, cuts the ground from under our feet, leads to discord, inevitable loss, and confusion, for while the humblest mind can accurately foretell the result of every correct action, the greatest, most profound and penetrating mind loses its way hopelessly and can form no conception of the result due to a departure from correct principles.

Those who establish within themselves the requisite elements of true success have established confidence, organized victory, and it only remains for them to take such steps from time to time as the newly-awakened thought force will direct, and herein rests the magical secret of all power.

Less than 10 per cent of our mental processes are conscious; the other 90 per cent are subconscious and unconscious, so that he who would depend upon his conscious thought alone for results is less than 10 per cent efficient. Those who are accomplishing anything worth while are those who are enabled to take advantage of this greater storehouse of mental wealth. It is in the vast domain of the subconscious mind that great truths are hidden, and it is here that thought finds its creative power, its power to correlate with its object, to bring out of the unseen the seen.

Those familiar with the laws of Electricity understand the principle that electricity must always pass from a higher to a lower potentiality and can therefore make whatever application of the power they desire. Those not familiar with this law can effect nothing; and so with the law governing in the Mental World; those who understand that Mind penetrates all things, is Omnipresent and is responsive to every demand, can make use of the law and can control conditions, circumstances and environment; the uninformed cannot use it because they do not know it.

The fruit of this knowledge is as it were, a gift of the Gods; it is the \"truth\" that makes men free, not only free from every lack and limitation, but free from sorrow, worry and care, and, is it not wonderful to realize that this law is no respecter of persons, that it makes no difference what your habit of thought may be, the way has been prepared?

With the realization that this mental power controls and directs every other power which exists, that it can be cultivated and developed, that no limitation can be placed upon its activity, it will be come apparent that it is the greatest fact in the world, the remedy for every ill, the solution for every difficulty, the gratification of every desire; in fact, that it is the Creator\'s magnificent provision for the emancipation of mankind.

Top 7 Tips to Using the Law of Attraction2

By: Leanna Fredrich
I agree that knowing how to use the Law of Attraction makes life easier but that does not mean we can sit on the couch and expect our desires to fall in our lap. We still need to take action! When you are visualizing what you want listen for inspired action ideas. When you think of something you could do to reach your intentions do it and do it quickly! The universe honors quick and positive action.

6. Fall in Love with Your Current Reality

The one most powerful step you can take to begin attracting what you want is to be grateful. Look around you and be grateful for the good things you already have in your life. Be grateful for the beauty in nature, the relationships that you enjoy, good food ... You get the idea! Every time you focus on what you love about your life you bring more of those wonderful things to you.

7. Celebrate!

This is my favorite! Celebrating your successes is a great way to focus on what you want. Remember to celebrate the little successes as well as the big. Most of us over look how much we accomplish on a daily basis. We get out of bed, we fix something to eat, we take care of family, we show up at a job, we exercise... Now go celebrate!

Top 7 Tips to Using the Law of Attraction1

By: Leanna Fredrich
The Law of Attraction is a law of the universe like the Law of Gravity. The Law of Attraction is simply; we attract into our lives whatever we are putting our attention on. If you put your attention on what you "don't have" or what you wish you "didn't have" then you've probably noticed that you keep getting more of what you've already got! So why not do the opposite - right?! Put your attention on what you "do" want! Simple but not easy. How do you change your thoughts to what you want? Here are 7 steps to help you use the Law of Attraction to create the life of your dreams!

1. Ask for What You Want

The first step to using the Law of Attraction is to ask for what you want. I can hear you saying, "That's easy,of coarse I'll ask for what I want!" Is it really that easy? Are you clear about which goals are yours and which goals were handed to you by others? They can get mixed up sometimes. It is important to be clear on what you want. It is so easy to think we want something when really it is a "should" We think we should want something. We think others want us to do something. So take the time to write down what you want in as much detail as you can. When you are super clear about what you want then it is easier to use the Law of Attraction and focus on your desires.

2. Living Life with Purpose

Having a strong "why" is what keeps us motivated to reach our intention. Write down why you want what you want. What will it get you? What feelings will you have when you reach your intention? This "why" will keep you moving forward and help you filter your activities. You will find yourself asking, "Is this activity moving me towards my intention or away from it? Put a great "why" behind an intention and you will attract it quickly into your life.

3. Step Into Your Desire

The next step is to feel the feelings you will have when you reach your desire. The Law of Attraction responds to our feelings. Visualization is a wonderful way to start feeling those feelings NOW. Take each of your intentions and imagine having them. Feel what you would be feeling when you reach your intention. Put color, sound and smell into your picture. Ahh... Enjoy it!

4. Clear Out the Mental Clutter

All of us have beliefs that we live by whether consciously or unconsciously. When we have an intention to earn more money or be financially free for example, we find out very quickly our beliefs around money. "Who do you think you are to earn that much?" "Money is hard to come by." These are beliefs that will get in the way of reaching your intention to be financially free. But guess what? You get to choose your beliefs! What belief do you need to have to reach your goal of being financially free? "Money comes into my life easily and effortlessly." or "Being financially free is easy to achieve." Choose beliefs that will work for you not against you!

5. Get Moving

Law Of Attraction Classics: Dynamic Thought - The Most Potent Force We Know - H.t.hamblin

By: Robert C. Worstell
TO the ordinary \"man in the street\" a thought is an \"airy nothing \"--a mere flash in the consciousness--it comes, it goes, and there is an end to it. To the student of Mind however, thought is known to be the power that is greater than any other power--a force that controls all other forces. An American writer speaking of Universal Mind says:

\"It thinks, and Suns spring into shape; It wills, and Worlds disintegrate; It loves and Souls are born.\"

It will thus be seen that thought is the origin of the visible Universe. All that we see around us is the result of thought. We may even go further, and say that all the invisible forces, which keep the wonderful machinery of the Universe working perfectly and smoothly, are but the thought-energies of the same Universal Mind.

As in the macrocosm so is it in the microcosm; the subliminal mind of man is the same in essence as the Universal Mind of the Universe; the difference is not one of kind but of degree.

In our world, our circumstances, our life, our bodies, we stand supreme, or rather we have within us the power, which properly directed, can make us supreme. This power is \"Thought.\" Thought is so subtle, so elusive, that it has by the majority of men, been considered impossible of control, but the greatest philosophers, seers and leaders in the World\'s history have known differently.

All that they achieved, they accomplished through the power of thought; and this was possible because they had learned the art of thought control.

\"What man has done, man can do.\" This was never so true as it is today, because the science of Mind is now being spread abroad, and that it is possible for quite ordinary people to learn how to control their thoughts, is now known to be a scientific possibility.

Dr. Abrams in his epoch-making book entitled \"New Concepts in Diagnosis and Treatment; The Practical Application of the Electrotonic Theory in the Interpretation and Treatment of Disease,\" describes how he has discovered the energy of thought and measured it by means of an instrument called the Bio-dynamometer.

With one subject in a room with closed doors, and another subject, in another room, forty or more feet away, it was found that one subject could affect the other by a definite exercise of thought. Anger and emotion yielded an energy which produced an effect at a distance of eighty feet.

Dr. Abrams also found that there arts three great energy centers in the human body, the right and left side of the brain, called by him the right and left psychomotor areas; and the finger tips. When the brain is actively engaged in thought there is an increase in the discharge of energy from the psychomotor areas, and also from the finger tips.

It was also found that ordinary people discharged energy from one psychomotor area only, but a great thinker discharged energy from both. The amount of energy discharged in this way can be gauged by the fact that Edward Markham, the poet, discharged energy from his left psychomotor area alone equal to a resistance of sixty ohms.

As the energy discharged from a giant magnet with a lifting capacity of 400 lbs. to the square inch is only thirty-two ohms, we can form some idea of the immense power of thought which man possesses.

The flow of energy from the finger tips is also suggestive. In all ages the laying on of hands has been recognized as a healing act, now it is proved by scientific means to have been simply the power or energy of thought.

You will therefore see that \"thought\" so far from being \"an airy nothing\" or a mere flash in the consciousness is a wonderful and potent force, the most wonderful and potent force of which we know.
