Law of Attraction Book

The following is an exercise that I have learned from Abraham-Hicks. They refer to is as the Placemat Exercise. However, because I do my tasks list on my computer or in a notebook I started mentally calling it the Universe Task List and the name stuck with me.

In case you have never heard of Abraham-Hicks, Esther Hicks is a medium who has long acted as a channel for a nonphysical group of beings known as Abraham. While I know some of you may shy away from the word channel or medium, some of the inspiration they provide regarding using the Law of Attraction is the most enlightening I have ever come across, so I think it would be well worth your time to check them out.

In this case I believe the story goes that Esther Hicks was sitting in a diner one day with her husband talking about how overwhelmed she felt over all the tasks that she had to accomplish within the upcoming days. She received a message from Abraham to turn over the placemat that was sitting in front of her and draw a line down the middle of the paper and a line across the top so it resembled the letter t. She was to write Me on the left side and Universe on the right side.

Then on the left side of the paper she was to write down all of the things that she was inspired to accomplish that day. The ones she was ready and willing to take action on immediately. The tasks that felt right and clear to her.

On the right side of the paper she was to write down all of the things she wanted Universe to take care of for her. Things she wasn’t exactly clear on, felt any kind of resistance to doing, or items she hadn’t even figured how to start accomplishing yet.

The point of this exercise is to 1. Get yourself clear on exactly what it is you are wanting and 2. Allowing and knowing that it is going to happen.

For example, a hypothetical Universe Task List I would use for myself would be:

ME:

1.Write at least 2 fun articles today.

2. Meditate for 20 minutes.

3. Do my yoga.

4. Have lunch with my best friend

5. Respond to some of the emails I have received

6. Update my website with some new articles from other authors

All of the items above are tasks I feel good and inspired about accomplishing. I am happy and enthusiastic about doing them.

Now on the left side I write what I would like Universe to take care of. Items I am not “in the mood for” or “ready to deal with yet” such as:

UNIVERSE:

1. Find me an easy and pain free way to come up with the money to pay the car insurance next month

2. Send me inspiration to help me get clear on the information I want to include in my new ebook

3. Find me an easy and pain free way to get out of a social obligation I’d rather not attend (in your case be specific on what that engagement is)

4. Find the right person who will be able to fix the bug on my computer

5. Find me a simple solution to getting the garage cleaned out

It does not matter how many things you give the Universe (or your higher self, if you prefer) to do. Just know that you are not alone here. What you ask for you will receive.

So as you write out what you want Universe to accomplish, act and feel as if it is without a doubt, going to be taken care of. Feel as if you just handed this list to the most reliable Manager you have ever met and that you are so confident that these things are going to be done, that you do not even have to give them a second thought.

You will be thrilled and amazed at how this works!

For instance, let‘s go back to the example of the list I would give Universe to take care of.

1. Money for the car insurance. How would Universe handle it? Maybe my mother wins money in Atlantic City and she decides to share some with me and I also receive an unexpected check in the mail. Between the two of them – they more than cover the premium.

2. The inspiration for my new ebook. Universe urges me to make an unplanned stop at the library where I find a new book that just came in and I find it is exactly the subject I feel inspired to write about.

3. The engagement I didn’t want to attend. The people I was supposed to meet with call me and tell me something else came up and apologize because we will have to do it another time. No hurt feelings on either side.

4. My computer problem. I find out the guy who runs my yoga class also fixes computers on the side and charges less than half what a professional would. I find this out by simply chatting with the person next to me while doing my fun task of taking the yoga class in the first place.

5. My garage getting cleaned out. My niece has just gotten into selling on Ebay and offers to clean out my garage if she can sell and keep the profit on the items I know longer want to keep.

I can‘t tell you the thrill-chills you will get as you watch Universe work out these kind of “miracles” without any effort on your part.

Now there is one last step to this exercise. As Universe goes about its business and accomplishes each of these tasks for you, it is important that you acknowledge it, be grateful for it and encourage more.

Anytime the Universe easily handles one of my tasks and I have clapped my hands together gleefully (and yes, there have been many times I have literally clapped my hands together gleefully) I always follow up with a “Thank You Universe and more of that please!”

It helps you to take notice of “who” is responsible for helping you out and reinforces the belief that you really can depend on it for the future. Plus when you say “more of that please” and you start knowing it is really coming, you get more excited about handing over the next task and watching with wonder to see how Universe will work it out.

I’ll be honest, while I used to write out this list almost everyday, I now find myself doing it more often mentally. Now if something comes up that I don’t feel like dealing with, I’ll immediately throw it in Universe’s court. For instance, if the boss says I have to work late tonight I give an immediate mental “Yuck! Universe I’ll let you handle this one. I want to go home happily on time tonight.” Then I forget about it and watch as the Universe does its stuff and reminds the boss that his child has a recital tonight and we can’t work late after all.

But if you are just starting with this exercise, I would definitely do the physical list. It will give you a great feeling of relief as you write down the tough things you want “your manager” to deal with, so you can stay focused on the things that you are inspired to do today.

As you begin to learn about and consciously implement the force of creation inherent in Law of Attraction, you may find that you have times when you feel this stuff ‘works’ and others when it ‘doesn’t work’. This is a misconception, and getting past it is a big piece of your puzzle that may be missing.

Why are we so quick to recognize an amazing coincidence and call it Law of Attraction, and yet deny the Law of Attraction exists or at least works when things don’t go the way we thought they would?…

The truth is the laws of the Universe are at work – or play! – independent of your beliefs. Your beliefs affect how you experience and perceive things, but do NOT affect the existence of the laws.

One of these is the principle of abundance, which goes along with the ‘always there’ concept. Abundance is everywhere, in everything, and if you are not feeling or experiencing abundance, then it is because of a block which exists internally – in you – rather than outside of you.

If you are having trouble conceptualizing abundance, especially when it comes to money, try using nature as an analogy. As an example, think about lines of rolling clouds; the waves on a beach; ripples in the vast desert…you will notice they all have similar patterns. The vibration of the wind has caused movement and pattern, and it is a never-ending cycle. Every day you will see different combinations of patterns – no two alike, ever – yet the overall phenomenon continues to exist and play out endlessly.

Without movement and change, there would be NO LIFE. Notice that when you are standing in the ocean or sitting in a warm bath, the water does not pick and choose where to touch you – it envelops and caresses you according to the laws of physics. There is no thought on the water’s part that says ‘this person is not worthy so I will stay away’.

Money is like this as well…money is just an energy, like everything else. It is not separate from nature – it is a part of it, just like we are. It flows endlessly all around you. If you take a moment to consider the financial transactions just in your small corner of the world – say, in one city block – you will see that the enormity is staggering; from gas stations and stores to internet transactions and automatic payments; money is literally moving all around you, in an endless flow…just like wind, and just like water.

If the experience or thoughts of ‘not having enough money’ are a part of your life, then by your own thoughts YOU are keeping money from yourself. Proof: picture yourself in a grocery store or a mall. As you walk around this place in your mind, and you see food or clothes or shoes that you like, what does your mind instantly say: ‘I probably can’t afford that. How much is that…’ OR ‘Wow! That’s awesome! I love it. Yum!’…?

There is a BIG difference in mentality in the two reactions above. One is based in lack, and the other in abundance and joy. It has nothing to do with whether you can really afford an item at this time or not.

You have heard that the Universe is abundant, and that there is more than enough of everything for everybody, but only when you start really letting that thought in and living that truth WILL IT BECOME TRUE FOR YOU!

TIP: If financial abundance is one of your goals, you can dramatically accelerate your progress with tools such as the instantly downloadable ‘30 Days to Wealth’ e-book (now with a fantastic bonus package!).

The Law of Attraction is a universal law where what we think and believe in, will manifest in our reality. This was made famous in the movie The Secret, and many people now use the Law of Attraction to attract money in their lives.
Here are the 7 steps where you can use the law of attraction to attract money in your life.
1. Practice visualization
Visualization is when you imagine what you want in life in your mind. You should visualize in a quiet spot and feeling relaxed. Visualize the situations where you imagine yourself to be and make sure everything seems very real. Even the smells around you.
2. Think about the life style you want.
Before you drop off to sleep, close your eyes, relax your body and think about the life style that you want. But think as though you are already living it.
Imagine yourself eating at expensive restaurants, ordering a good bottle of wine, dressed in an expensive suit and giving an expensive piece of jewelry to your partner as a gift.
You are not thinking about money but the situations where money is needed. You will attract money into your life when you believe in this visualization enough.
3. Keep track of your belief.
Every now and then, remind yourself that you are rich and wealthy. When you see expensive things in the stores, tell yourself that you can afford that but prefer better quality and that you prefer to shop around more.
4. Carry a lot of money around with you
Always have a few hundred dollars with you where ever you go. When you see things you want to buy, you will know that you can afford it because you’ve got the cash but you just prefer to shop around first.
5. Carry a signed cheque with you.
Jim Carrey used to do this when he wasn’t well known. He used to carry a cheque made payable to him for a million dollars. Well history showed that it manifested in his life.
6. Show your gratitude to all things in your life.
Whenever something happens good in your life, acknowledge that law of attraction is working and thank the Universe for giving you this good fortune. For example, if you find something selling for a discount, show gratitude for saving you money.
If you have a good dinner and the service was excellent, give them a tip and show your gratitude. If you see some money on the floor, spend the time and pick it up no matter what amount it is. Show your gratitude to the Universe for this good luck.
At the end of the day, write down all your gratitude in a book. Read this daily gratitude diary once in a while to kick off the positive vibrations in you.
7. Expect to have money in your life
The final step is to expect the money to appear in your life. When you buy things or have bills to pay, expect to have money to pay it. Straight after you wake up expect to have opportunities through the day where money will appear in your life. Having faith is very important when applying the law of attraction to attract money. Therefore, expecting something without a doubt is very effective to show your belief.
By using the 7 steps mentioned above, you can effortlessly attract wealth into your life. However you need to understand that law of attraction is not a technique you use now and again. It is the way you live your life from now on.

Most people, whether they realize it or not, would like to be rich. Those who are more comfortable admitting this fact often devise complicated methods, plans or schemes to get easy money quickly — and with the least possible expenditure of effort.
While some of these people will certainly find ways to make money, few realize that there is an easier way of doing things; the law of attracting wealth is staring them in the face, and yet they usually don’t recognize it. Some of the concepts involved in attracting wealth are so simple that it can be hard to accept they didn’t think of them before.
Wealthy people tend to live by a simple philosophy. This philosophy is often referred to as the law of attracting wealth. It is what separates the haves from the have-nots, and it is why they are where they are today. Fortunately, we can all look forward to receiving more money by simply following the easy steps presented in this law.
A lot of us grew up thinking that “all rich people are greedy,” or that “money is the root of all evil”. These mentalities must be changed, and fast, because they seriously hamper our efforts in attracting wealth. If we think that rich people are greedy, then certainly the universe will not make us one of those rich people. Accordingly, it is important that we never look upon wealthy people with distain or contempt. Rather, we must realize that the majority of rich people are not greedy at all.
In fact, quite a number of wealthy folks are compassionate philanthropists. The world is actually full of rich people who have decided to share their blessings and help those less fortunate. Realizing that money can be used in good and noble ways helps us to debunk the myth that money is the root of evil and something we should be ashamed of desiring.
The law of attracting wealth says (among other things) that the universe gives money to those who welcome it. For this reason, people who are comfortable with earning and receiving money are given what they desire. On the other hand, people who believe that they do not need or want a large sum of money, radiate an energy that is NOT attractive and the universe tends to respond in kind by giving them very little in the way of wealth and material possessions. By becoming comfortable with large amounts of money, we begin the process of attracting money to come into our lives.
Another principle of the law of attracting wealth is that we should be willing to give in order to receive. We cannot receive more blessings if our hands are already full. People who are stingy and become too attached to their money will normally reaching a plateau. On the other hand, people who spend well beyond their means end up constantly worrying about debt and living in fear. The key is to strike a good balance between spending and saving, between giving and receiving. This puts us in the flow of wealth.
Thinking of money as a flowing river helps us to understand that wealth is part of a cycle. The law of attracting wealth shows us that abundance is never a static goal to be achieved, but a WAY of living.

Do you currently have a goal that you would like to attain, but are unsure of what the next step should be in attaining it? Or maybe you think you know what you “should” do but your find doubts or fears of failure are standing in your way? Maybe neither of the above apply but you find that no matter what you do, you still haven’t gotten to where you want to be.

Quite often people set goals for themselves and “on paper” they look very attainable if that person were to follow certain steps. In reality however, their subconscious mind may have something completely different going on and it could be sabotaging their efforts.

Fear of failure or success. Fear of more responsibility. Fear of change. Afraid that they are not good enough or deserving enough for what they are wanting.

Without even realizing it they may “say” that they want something, may scream it even; but in truth never “really” believe it is going to happen for them.

That is where this manifestation exercise comes in.

The idea behind this exercise is to pretend that you have already accomplished what it is you are wanting and now you are just looking back to see how you got there.

For example:

Say your dream is to become a best selling author. So you wake up this morning and pretend that you already are a best selling author. How does that feel? Do you feel proud that you made it? Do you feel accomplished? How satisfying is it? What would you be doing today as a best selling author? Would you be going to a book signing? Would you be checking on the computer to see how far up your title is on Amazons best seller list? Really get the feel of it. Would you stand taller, dress nicer? Imagine people driving by your house and saying “Did you know that _______ lives there? You know the best selling author of _________ books.” How cool does it feel that they are talking about you!

Now pretend that this afternoon as this best selling author, you are on your way to an interview and you are about to explain how you got to where you are today. What would you say? You see…this is the most important part of this exercise. The first part is to know how it feels to have accomplished your goal. It’s a done deal – you have arrived! Now it is time to figure out the steps you took to get there.

So you work backwards. You say “Well on such and such a day – I remember the day clearly (which would be today of coarse) that I decided nothing was going to stand in my way. So I sat down and wrote two articles that I submitted to these two publications. While waiting for them to be approved, I started attending a writing class during the evening and then would go home and write for 3 or 4 hours every night. Sometimes I would get so involved that I didn’t notice that the sun was coming up. Even though I had my doubts and fears I kept writing. I let nothing dissuade me. Until finally one day it all came together. My articles got printed, my book was ready to be edited..….”

Anyway… you get the idea. Sometimes people get so boggled down in fear or are so unsure of what their next move should be, that they find themselves paralyzed — spinning their wheels and going nowhere.

So the trick is to know beyond a shadow of a doubt that your goal is in fact reached. It is a done deal! It is already accomplished in your future and done! Now you just need to figure out the steps that got you there.

This exercise can be done with any goal you have.

You want to own a new house. Imagine yourself in it already and work backwards to see how you got there. Well, first you called a realtor, then you made calls to different banks about loans, than you packed up the stuff in your apartment…etc.

You want to get married. Imagine yourself on your wedding day in front of a mirror dressed in your gown or tux, thinking back to how you got there. How the two of you met in that Law of Attraction seminar you decided to attend and knew immediately that you were perfect for each other.

You want a promotion in your company. Imagine you are sitting in your new office explaining to a new hire the steps you took to become “the person you are today”

You want to lose weight. Imagine yourself in those awesome fitting jeans explaining to your best friend what you did to get in shape.

I have found that pretending that you are explaining your life and your success to someone else is very effective. Because you feel even in your pretending that you are talking from a place of authority. You are a person who has already accomplished what they set out to do and are the perfect person to give advice to others.

So get started imagining today! Write down all the steps you “took” to be a success. Then realize that this list in front of you has now become your blueprint. All you have to do is follow it. Start with the first step right now. And if fear ever tries to rear its ugly head, think “back” to your “future” vision and realize that you obviously worked through the fear because you “became” successful, so whatever that little pesky fear might have been, obviously wasn’t big enough to stop you.

Remember you really are entitled and deserving to be and have whatever you want while on this Earth. There is no one “out there” who has placed any limitations on you whatsoever. So look into your future and see who you became. Then work backwards and figure out how you got there.

Also keep in mind that the law of attraction brings you what you focus on. If you focus on the success you have become it has no choice but to help you make that a reality.
