Why People Think
The Law of Attraction
Does Not Work
Here is an answer I gave when someone who is extremely well known in the self-help, change your belief field asked what I thought was a very odd question for someone in his position.
Here is the question he asked...
Have you ever wondered why sometimes the Law of Attraction seems to work and sometimes it doesn't?
Well, I have a theory that would explain why it works when it does. It has to do with intention and intuition.
After reading it (my blog on LOA), please post a comment and tell me and my readers if my theory is consistent with your experience.
Here is my response...
The best way I can explain this is to use your own concepts. You have said in so many words, events are happening with no inherent meaning and that the individual adds the meaning to an event and responses to the meaning one has added. I usually explain it by saying The 1st Forgotten Fundamental of An Exquisite Life is "The Individual Is the Meaning Maker".
The meaning I have made is different than the meaning you have made and I've written about it in my books, programs and on my blog. And you asked for it so here goes...
It is not the difference between intention and inspiration that determines whether or not the Law of Attraction works. The Law of Attraction works perfectly well every time, no matter what. One does not break the LOA, one ONLY demonstrates it. I'll speak to intention and inspiration in a moment and before we can get to that there must be some clarity offered on the subject first.
To take advantage of LOA one must understand energy vibration and frequency. When one tunes their TV into HBO one does not get Lifetime or CBS or any other TV station, when one turns to HBO that is the only station one receives.
LOA is an energy vibrational law that works exactly like tuning into HBO. Whatever one's experience is in life it came through tuning in to the vibrational frequency that is equivalent to what is showing up in one's life.
I am not saying that individuals do this on purpose; no one purposefully vibrates problems, sickness or trouble of any kind into their life. When this happens people do this by default, not meaning to and not understanding exactly how vibrational energy (LOA) works. In some circles LOA is referred to as ‘resonance’ and in this case often people are in resonance with vibrations they are not aware of and do not want.
(Side note: However, if one does understand how resonance and vibrational energy work, it does not bother them when problems, sickness or trouble shows up as they apply what they know and change the vibration and it moves from problem to solution, sickness to health and trouble to calm.)
Back to our TV station analog… LOA is not for or against anything it only energizes, charges, builds and brings into material existence whatever station one has their focus of attention on because they tuned it in, just as your TV tuner or remote control is not for or against any one station over another. It only tunes into the station we focus on by pressing the channel, which brings us to the two words you have presented.
Words are not the actual energy and the same word can have different vibrations which tune into different stations. There are two basic vibrational stations one can tune into with every word. The first station is the station of having what the word implies and the second station one can tune into (with the same word) is not having what the word implies.
In other words using the phrase "I am wealthy or I want to be wealthy" or any so-called positive statement can tune into either of the stations wealthy or poor and the way one knows this is by how it feels. If it feels good one is tuning into the station that sends back the signal of wealth and that is what one hears and feels and then receives. If however it feels bad when one tunes into the station it means they are attracting the opposite of what they are saying, they are tuning into the station of lack of wealth otherwise known as poor.
So it isn't the word intention or inspiration that determines how the LOA effects one (as it always effects us), it is the vibration behind the word, it is the resonance the word creates that determines whether one likes LOA or falsely assumes it doesn't work.
After reading your thoughts on the subject, from my meaning of the words inspiration and intention, I think you are onto something and that you may consider a slight shift in perspective.
LOA is always working and it works all the time with inspiration and intention. *I think if it was understood that the energy of intention only has to be active for a quarter of a second to move into the Zero Point Field and produce the intended results it might encourage you to look at another word other than intention.
LOA works extremely fast with inspiration and intention for as you explained inspiration is self-generated, therefore it does not have to be re-generated over and over again.
Where beliefs come in and trips up the process, slows it down or even cause the opposite of what one thought they were attracting is when people attempt to use motivation and intention to work with LOA.
Intention will always be involved as that is focus of attention, Intention is the pushing the buttons on the remote and remember all that is needed can be as little as a quarter of a second.
The challenge is when people attempt to use motivation which is an externally, other than self, generated energy vibration which requires constant re-generation to keep the vibration going to get what one wants.
Motivations are where limiting beliefs can gum up the works as they haven't been dealt with. However with inspiration any limiting beliefs are suspended or dealt with which keeps the energy generated in the direction of what is wanted.
I submit based on my experience, and of course this is my understanding, (the meaning I made) that intention is not the issue as focus of attention, i.e. intention is always involved. My offering is that it is the use of motivation (which is an external, other than self, force which pushes) that causes some individuals to think LOA doesn't work when they don't get what they want.
On the other hand inspiration and intention will work faster, easier and quicker than motivation and intention every time. And inspiration carries one rather than pushing you.
Oh BTW... LOA does not bring you what you want or don't want, it brings you what you vibrate and what you vibrate is not always what you want.
One of the fastest ways to make The Law of Attraction work for you is to apply This One Secret.
