Why Does Law of Attraction Work Only Sometimes for You? by Joyce Shafer
You know what I’m talking about: those “smaller” manifestations that happen for you that seem so effortless, automatic even. So, what’s up with the larger ones, the ones you really need that don’t happen?
I remember the moment when I asked myself that question. There had to be a reason. Obviously, I could do it-I had examples that proved Law of Attraction worked and that I could work it; but, what about those OTHER things that didn’t happen?
Let’s get one aspect out of the way first, before we dive into what makes a difference.
The aspect of you that is infinite creative consciousness has your well being in mind at all times. You may believe that if you use Law of Attraction about something you want, this means you should get it. But your infinite self knows what’s going on, knows what’s for your highest good. You’re not separate from your infinite self, you’re the personification of it so it can have experiences it/you chose/choose to have while you’re here. But, like the player on the field, you have to trust and listen to your inner coach. You have to collaborate, do your part.
When what you want doesn’t manifest, allow that it may not be for your highest good or that something even better is at hand. You already know this, but it’s easy to forget, especially when you feel panicked or anxious. If you take this approach, at the very least, you won’t block you energy with fear, but keep it open to receive inspired ideas-to become a magnet for desired experiences.
Here are some brief but significant (and fun) examples of “smaller” events when I’ve manifested.
- I thought I’d like to have a lamp for a corner in my living room-one that went with my pre-war building. The next day, I found the perfect lamp, in working order, in the basement.
- I’d listened to my Sherlock Holmes audio cassettes so often I really wanted some new ones. Two hours later, I found a 4-cassette box (8 stories) someone left on the re-use table in the basement. Only, these were recordings from the 1940 radio programs with Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. Score!
- I had the thought that I needed more novels to read. Three days later-yep, the table in the basement had about 80 books on it. I took home 45. There was even an empty box and a large, sturdy shopping bag there so I had a means to carry them with me in one trip.
Why were these things so easy? The answer is NOT that I live in a building with a magic basement.
What was different? I had a clear thought about what I wanted. But, I didn’t picture these things. I didn’t think about where I might have to shop for them, or when, or how much I’d have to pay. I didn’t affirm they’d be mine.
In a nutshell, I had no emotional attachment to who, what, when, where, how. I DID know what I wanted, ideally. I DID have intention and I DID expect I’d get what I wanted.
There was no fear, strain, or stress attached. There was no self-judgment because I didn’t already have them or what it might take to get them. There was no energy of having to fix or change something. There was no thought of how my life would improve once I had them; but, there was a knowing feeling of the satisfaction I’d experience.
The things I didn’t do, think, or feel played a huge part in the manifestations. I had no resistance to receiving as well as no attachments to whether I did or didn’t have them; though, I intended to have them at some point.
Let me change the word attraction to vibrational matching. We call it Law of Attraction, but Law of Matching Vibrations is more accurate. This word swap allows you to feel the fact it’s a matter of alignment, which feels more natural and easy to manage. It doesn’t impose the thought in your mind that you have to work at something.
What I just wrote above is a key point: You don’t work Law of Attraction (force); you allow it to work in the way you wish by aligning your vibrations with receiving. We’ve been adversely affected by “It’s better to give than receive.” Give and Receive are aspects of the same loop, the same energy exchange. Block one and you block the other. Judge one as better or more worthy and you limit both. You never do one without, in some way, doing the other (and, what you give or receive can be positive or negative).
Just as your infinite self and your persona self are One Self, Law of Matching Vibration is your natural state of being-not something outside of you. It may be underneath layers of limiting beliefs, but it’s there, matching your vibrations at all times.
Trusting your infinite self (you) to know what’s in your best interest is something you should open to more and more. If you add to this the knowledge that the feeling you need to change or fix something will get matched (and not in the way you desire), you’re eventually led to align with your intention and leave off the energies that keep it or something better from you.
Law of Attraction (Vibrational Matching) is never NOT working. This is why managing your emotional vibrations-focusing them, aligning them in ways that produce the experiences you desire-in each moment-is what gets you there more quickly and more effortlessly.
And besides, it just feels better!
