Answer 1

Purest garbage.

For what foolish mortal sincerely believes that they may control what comes their way?

When, in an instant, the world may turn upside down.

We know not the time of our ending, nor the sudden turn of the tides in the affairs of man.

We exist, thrive, and flourish at the whim of the hour.

Answer 2

its kinda like your horoscope...its so vague you can read anything into it and as such lacks any real substance.

Answer 3

Simply put it works like this:

Everything is energy, also your thoughts. When you think about i.e. a place your thoughts "vibrate" in a sertain way. The place you think of also "vibrates" in this same way and thus they "connect" and you attract this place.

But it takes more than thinking, you also have to believe you can visit this place, and act as you´re already visiting it. Thus you make it real and precent.

So basically this is what the LOA states: Your thoughts create your reality, but YOU create your thoughts!

"The Science of Getting Rich Program" was designed to help you master the LOA, for more info visit: http://thesgrprogram.com/?a_aid=30c10055

Answer 4

Thoughts become things...

You define your life and your reality by what you believe. It's about being positive, creative and transforming your thoughts into reality. The best book written on the subject is called The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles.

The Law of attraction is a sound philosophy but it isn't as simple to use as Rhonda Byrne makes out, nor Esther Hicks (who appears to channel spirits through her nose????)

Many people have bought into The Secret, because it sounds simple doesn't it...You wish for something and it appears, but it doesn't work like that, you need to put effort in or the process would be one sided.

Google "Why Isn't the Law of Attraction Working" and you will see 2,080,000 people are asking that question.  

Answer 5

The phrase Law of Attraction, although used widely by esoteric writers, does not have a consensual definition. However, the general consensus among New Thought thinkers is that the Law of Attraction takes the principal "Like Attracts Like" and applies it to conscious desire. That is, a person's thoughts (conscious and subconscious), emotions, and beliefs cause a change in the physical world that attracts positive or negative experiences that correspond to the aforementioned thoughts, with or without the person taking action to attain such experiences. This process has been described as "harmonious vibrations of the law of attraction", or "you get what you think about; your thoughts determine your experience".

The phrase is closely associated with New Thought beliefs and practices, from which its most common definition arises, but it also has a long standing (and more complex development) in other esoteric fields such as Hermeticism and Theosophy. Recently, the New Thought version was popularized by the 2006 film The Secret.

The law of attraction has received criticism from the scientific community for its purported misuse of the scientific term law and the lack of any scientific evidence for the claims made by advocates for the Law of Attraction. It has also received criticism from psychiatrist and others in medical fields for its "blame the victim" mentality and the danger that people may not seek out needed medical care for life threaten conditions.  

Answer 6

It's basically back to the earliest  humans. You are attracted to those that would make a stronger offspring, for example. You are more attracted to someone with a different immune system so your offspring will have two different types, making them stronger.

Answer 7

It states that like attracts like...best explained this way : everything in the universe is energy..take you hand and look at it under a microscope..you will see a mass of energy vibrating...everything around you including the building you are in,the tables,chairs,ocean,the moon,the stars...that means your thoughts are also energy.....Since like energy always attracts like energy,your thoughts will attract people,events,circumstances,opportunitie... in harmony with your dominant thoughts and feelings and what you give your attention to most of the time....When you think something,you control the vibration you are in, and when you control the vibration you are in,you control what you attract into you life.....In other words,the law of attraction,the most powerful law in the universe,gives you what you focus on with thought and feeling,whether wanted or unwanted.It doesn't care whether you perceive something to be good or bad,whether you want it or don't want it,it will give u what you attention and energy to always....

Answer 8

you attract people, circumstances, events which directly or indirectly reflect of who you are..And you cannot claim that you know who you are...That is the greatest philosophical question which is not answered yet..WHY AND WHAT I AM...So life gladly shows you who you are, or who we are in a global scale, just be able to accept it ...obediently.but in most cases we deny it, locally and globally, blaming others in our own fault...That is one of many applications of a Law of Attraction
