The Law of Attraction states that you attract into your life that which you think about and focus your attention on. It can work in your favour and against, depending on how you're feeling about what you're thinking about. It also works both consciously and unconsciously.
The key to experiencing (mostly) what you'd like to experience in life is to consciously focus on what it is you'd like, and feel as if it is already yours. If your energy is focussed on a lack of having that which you want, you'll attract more of that lack. Hence, it is imperative to focus on the having rather than on the not having.
However, there is a major stumbling block in there. At least it is a stumbling block for me. And that is to not become attached to that which you'd like to have. This is really tricky. When you become attached, it's likely that you will fall into the lack mindset, and therefore begin to repel rather than attract what you want. I never fail to not receive what I become fiercely attached to.
And I never fail to receive what I've asked for with complete detachment.
But when I'm completely detached, my request is almost unconscious. It's a fleeting "wouldn't it be nice..." thought which manifests with surprising speed. When there's something important that I'd like to experience, I focus on it consciously, and go about visualising the end result that I'd like, and trying to feel as though it is already mine. But the more I do this positive focussing work, the more attached I become to having the experience. And the more I scupper my chances of actually receiving it...
I am generally aware of my strong attachments, but no matter how hard I try I find it really difficult to let go of them, and just allow whatever will be to be. I've been trying the expression "Let go and let God" lately and it's helped a bit, but if anyone can offer any more tips on how to stay detached (or become detached once you realise your attachment), I'd be very grateful to hear them.
