The Law of Attraction is at work in all of our lives every day, whether we are aware of it or not. Being aware of it, understanding how it works, and using it to your advantage will greatly improve your life in a wide variety of ways!
1. You’re in control – You can have a much greater impact on what happens in your life when you realize that the things you do, say, and think affect your future on a profound level. As you gain control over your actions, words, and thoughts, you gain control over your whole life experience.
2. Greater understanding of how things work – Everything is working towards making your life happen the way you create it. When you understand that you create your own world, you start to see threads connecting causes and effects. You’ll start to see what others consider coincidences as cause and effects.
3. Trust your instincts – You know more than you think! Your instincts are your powerful mind picking up on all of the little things happening around you that your conscious mind may not see or piece together. Following your instinct and trusting your first thoughts leads you towards the future that you are creating for yourself.
4. Faith in the future – Many people live in doubt, confusion, and concern over what will happen in their future. Knowing how the Law of Attraction works will free you of these worries and concerns. You know that you are creating your own future. You don’t have to worry about it, especially because…
5. Everything leads towards good – Every event that happens to you leads you forward towards good things. Things that others would see as losses or setbacks are things that you know just weren’t the right fit for what you’re calling into your life. Something else is coming that will be just what you need in your life at that time.
6. Let go of the past – The past has passed by and is gone. You can’t change what has happened to you, and keeping your mind on things of the past prevents you from moving forward. These are all basic principles that are emphasized in the Law of Attraction, explaining why these ideas are important. It’s all about moving forward and what you’re bringing into your life. You can be at peace with your past because it no longer has a hold on your life.
7. Embrace the present – You are in this moment right now. It is what matters, it is the only point in time that you can currently affect. It is the only point in time you need to consider. Enjoy what is happening in the present, you made it happen!
8. Increase personal accountability – You are the only person you can control. You can influence the actions of others, but you only control yourself. You know that your actions affect your life and your future.
9. Decrease disappointment in others – The Law of Attraction calls for you to release your expectations. When you release your expectations of others, you have no cause to be disappointed in them. This frees you from the negative feelings connected to disappointment and helps you bring more positive things into your life.
10. Improve relationships – If you’re not disappointed in others, a natural result is that your relationships with others will improve. They will also improve because you are expecting them to improve. You will participate in activities that improve your relationships as well. Being happier in general will make you happier in your relationships.
11. The benefits of visualization – Even those who don’t subscribe to the Law of Attraction will attest to the benefits of visualization. It is a common practice for professional athletes and performers, improving their production in whatever realm they choose to visualize.
12. Mindfulness in the moment – Embracing the present encourages you to be mindful of each moment you experience, allowing you to feel it fully. You will actively engage with every moment of your life, not missing out on a moment. Instead of mindlessly traveling through expecting things to happen to you, following the Law of Attraction leads you to appreciate everything that you have called into your life.
13. Greater appreciation – When you are consciously appreciative of the good that is in your life and continuing to come into your life, you learn to appreciate and enjoy things in a fuller and deeper way. Expressing this appreciation helps you enjoy it more, and others always enjoy expressions of appreciation.
14. Meditation’s effects – Meditation and mindfulness are two deeply intertwined aspects of practicing a life led by the Law of Attraction. This practice allows you to slow down and focus on what means the most to you, with tangible results. Practicing meditation has proven physical and mental improvements for practitioners in addition to the connected benefits of manifesting positive things into your life.
15. Greater self control – Your emotions are a useful guide to understanding how your life is going, but you don’t need to be led by them. Practicing the principles of the Law of Attraction puts you in control of your life and yourself. You are in charge–enjoy your power!
