There are a lot of people discovering the Law of Attraction for the first time, and I think it’s one of the most exciting times to be alive here on planet Earth. People are learning (or remembering) that the sum essence of their thoughts, actions, and feelings is what creates their reality. We are all coming to understand that we are eternal creators, and that we are here for joy, growth, and expansion. People are experiencing how a thought, practiced over time, attracts other thoughts and experiences to match it. More and more people every day are coming to trust Source Energy as a never-ending, consistent supply of love, inspiration, wellbeing, and connection. New websites about how to align with the Law of Attraction are popping up every day, and there are a lot of curious souls who want to learn to live a more purposeful life of joy. You are one of them, because you found your way to this moment in time, at this website, reading these words. Welcome.
The Law of Attraction is not difficult to understand or harness, but there is so much information out there that is geared for different kinds of people. It appears to be much more complicated than it really is. Today I will give you an easy way to summarize the Law of Attraction, and then I will give one example of how I have used it effectively to create something I wanted.
Law of Attraction is a universal law that deals with energy and vibration. Like attracts like. You are like a radio station that is constantly sending out a signal, and the Universe is broadcasting right back at you with the same signal! What ever you broadcast vibrationally as you live your day is matched, enhanced, and expanded by Law of Attraction. If you want change, you have to change your vibrational broadcast signal first, and then the Universe will change to match it. Waiting for the Universe to change YOU is a recipe for disconnection and frustration. I hope you are grasping the amazing truth in this: You have at your fingertips, right now, the ability to harness the energy that creates worlds…and it is constantly working to match and attract to you anything you broadcast. WOW!
A few years ago my wife and I moved to Southern California from the Midwest. We decided to live near the beach, and we found a great apartment just three blocks from the ocean. In only a few weeks we decided that we wanted to be not just close to the ocean, but we wanted to live right on the ocean! It would have been easy to find a million reasons why this would be impossible, but we understand the Law of Attraction, and we set out a course to allow this desire into our lives. The key is to get aligned with your desire, and to live it right now. Yes, you have to live it right now! But, you say, you didn’t live on the ocean. You only lived near the ocean. You were fooling yourself. And I say, sure, we were fooling ourselves…right into a place of feeling good about our desire, and right into broadcasting a signal that the Universe could match. We talked about how great it was to live on the water, and we bought books and magazines that had pictures of the ocean, I set up an electronic picture frame with hundreds of ocean-front images that I found on line, and we even slept every night, all night, to the sound of ocean waves on the iHome iPod dock next to the bed. We made vision boards with pictures of the beach. We also created “an allowing manifesto” for this manifestation of ocean-front living. (More about that in a later post). I found myself spending many hours of inspired time looking at real estate listings, all the while enjoying the feeling of living on the water. Yes, we “fooled” ourselves into broadcasting this signal to the Universe: “we live on the beach, we have the resources to purchase a home, and we love living here.” By not contradicting our own vibrational desire, Law of Attraction had no problem attracting to me a real estate listing that caught my eye. I immediately called the agent and set up a showing. It matched our list of criteria, and we were soon living there. But in our minds, we were already living there. Moving in was the last step, not the first step!
You can do this too. Look at the things you have been asking for. Have you been sending a signal that you already have it? Can you enjoy the feeling of living it right now? If you can do this and love having it now, you will be in the right place at the right time to have it flood to you through inspired action. I would love to hear your stories about your successes. Enjoy this most amazing day! Chris-GP

Well, mine is an ongoing story of success, but here goes:
A few years ago I was diagnosed with a “seemingly” incurable mental disorder called bipolar disorder. At the time of my diagnosis, the doctors impressed upon me the seriousness of this disorder and told me that it could be potentially life threatening if I didn’t take my meds regularly and as prescribed. Well, upon hearing all of this, I went straight home and started looking up information on Bipolar disorder on the internet…….and slowly became more and more depressed. “This isn’t fair” I said to myself. “Why did this have to happen to me?” I loafed around for months feeling sorry for myself, and telling anyone and everyone I met about my disorder, to no avail. Everyone’s response to me was “So?” I was looking for a pity party and got the wrong address over and over again. One day, I decided “enough’s enough!” and decided to start fighting for my mind. My healthy mind. Since mental disorders of all kinds involve problems in brain chemestry, as well as the way the brain functions electronically, and since I had seen the movie “What the Bleep do we know?” I decided that I was going to go on a quest to change my brain chemestry and it’s wiring by changing the way I thought about things…..EVERY thing. If I felt depressed, I pitured myself feeling happy. If I felt in rage, I imagined myself at peace. You get the idea. About a year and a half into this process, I met a man who told me about the Law of Attraction, and some of it’s priciples. I started praticing the priciples of Law of Attraction and saw results almost immediately! I felt, for the first time in many, many, many years, that I finally had some control over my mood swings, and the way that my brain operated and thought. I knew that principles of Law of Attraction were one of the most important keys to being able to make my mind healthy and whole again. I started focusing on what I wanted and what I had rather on what I didn’ want, or what I didn’t have. Thanks to his inspiration, I am making a vision board of all things mentally healthy. Pictures of what I feel are mentally well people, as well as positive, healing quotes from all sources grace the vision board. I think and believe that I am mentally healthy at this moment…..right now! I do things that are mentally healthy. I act like a mentally healthy person. I make choices that a mentally healthy person makes.
Today, I am sooooooo much more stable than I have ever been in my entire life. I’m not perfect (thank god!). I still have my back slides, but when I do, I no longer bog myself down with depressive thoughts and mental beatings. I forgive myself for those back slides and refocus my attention on the positive, healthier thoughts.
Shortly after that first meeting, the man who introduced the Law of Attraction to me became my mentor. He and his wife continue to help and advise me on all manner of topics whenever I ask, and have become cherished friends.
