Whenever we desire a passion for success, there will be days that seem as though the whole world is falling in around us. No matter how we try, Success seems to be one step nearer then two steps farther away again. Difficulties amass and become mountains to overcome yet if we take heed of the Law of Attraction, it becomes clear that this wave of negativity will only emphasise our despair and avert our attentions from our Passion for Success. It is essential that we start to nurture a positive mindset to help overcome problems on days where life seems firmly stacked against us.

The fundamental principles of the law of Attraction demonstrates that we are what we create through our own thought. Allowing negative thoughts to control our lives will only serve to attract more of the same towards us. An example might be when thinking about debt and worrying about not being able to meet payments will only serve to focus our thoughts upon debt and therefore attract more of the same into our life.

Now this all seems rather easy but, when first trying to master positive thinking in order to attract positive outcomes, it soon becomes clear that the task is in fact immense. In most cases we are surrounded by advice of caution and risk aversion so how can we then look at an amassing debt and see only opportunity. In most instances it is totally outside of rational logic to consider accumulating further debt rather than to reduce the existing burden. Whilst this example is hypothetical, it does demonstrate the challenge we face when attempting to maintain a positive mindset and how we are most probably faced with weeks or even months of practice. It also became quite clear that we also need to develop a strategy to eradicate negative influences from our environment.

For my part, I actually turned off the news. After listening for many years to detailed discussions about world events, I was suddenly awoken to the reality of this constant barrage of bad news when a friend commented that this was creating a sense of negativity in my thoughts. Although the comment was offered as an aside, the truth hit home and I was aware of the negative impact of my actions. Of course, my first concern was that I might not be sufficiently or socially aware without this topical information but very soon I discovered that life was not actually affected by this theoretical void. I now discovered that I could select my listening more carefully and chose to enhance my knowledge and understanding through personal development programs. Of course, I would never suggest that starvation or global warming are not important but maybe I would be more able to address these issues from a position of positivity and strength rather than being corrupted by media negativity.

As our lifestyles have changed, it is apparent that we do not communicate so readily with our neighbours, either in local communities or during our commute to work each day. To this end, I tried another experiment which, on one day involved my travelling in isolation, being lost in my iPod and not making any eye contact with my fellow travellers. This journey was quite lonely and I was offered no assistance when it would have been helpful. On the second date, I greeted everyone with a smile and the time of day for which in return, I had a far more enjoyable journey and everyone was so willing to help. Whilst this is not entirely related to the law of attraction, it does show that what we give out, we do get back in return.

Even though I had now proven the theory to be correct, I now faced the task of managing my internal thought patterns. This proved to be far more difficult than controlling external influences, after all, we cannot just turn off our thoughts and listen to something else. We have travelled through life developing our mindset and to suddenly try to change this is no minor undertaking. But how much do we actually know of our own mind and perhaps only truly know our superficial self, having no real reason to tap into our innermost beliefs to understand our motivations and controlling beliefs.

The most effective method that I found to reinforce this new positivity upon my subconscious mind was to immerse myself into audio personal development presentations and about the law of attraction. without going into too much depth here, a really good starting point for this learning about the Law of Attraction is The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. Listen a few times over and with each time, more and more will fall into place and your own strategy could easily develop from here. As you read or listen to The Secret and the concept starts to make sense to you, why not reinforce this with a positive communication perhaps during your commute to work or even in the supermarket, after all, checkout staff have feelings too! As you start to explore this approach, keep your outlook positive because whatever comes into your life is as a result of the thoughts that you are creating at every waking moment. Now, over these coming weeks, let’s practice to replace negative thought with positive messages. Don’t worry if this takes a long time to achieve or if the results fail to appear immediately, if you are like me, it is a long journey but do keep in mind that no matter what is going on around you, there is always scope for improvement.

You will need to be aware of your thoughts as it is too easy for negativity to sneak back in. Try to Control them wherever possible and overwrite negative with positive. It will undoubtedly take much effort to manage and create this new way of thinking but the rewards should soon lead to a better way of living, after all…

Your future deserves!
