The Law of Attraction works for us if we know how to give up resistance (negative emotions) and focus on positive emotions. One of the human factors that makes this difficult is that the emotional bottom line perpetuated in our society is we are never good enough, everything is our fault, and only perfectionism is tolerated. If this were not true, we wouldn't have therapists, depression, cults, or even religions. We would love ourselves as God does.
By design, society is competitive. Only one person can get first prize. But that only matters if you compete in that particular way.
If your goal is to feel good, feel genuine self love and a deep love, concern and compassion for other beings, and have that acceptance mirrored by all the goodness that shows up in your life, then there is no competition to lose. You can get out of the adrenaline driven psychology of success and actually succeed.
What is the path of least resistance? How do you escape the embedded patterns that have become normal? How do you float downstream peacefully when someone else is running a whirlpool machine nearby? Or a whole country or the whole world is creating emotional/economic/physical disasters every day?
You can start recognizing a little bit less resistance, more acceptance. For one thing, acceptance means that you acknowledge a situation. Now you can change it. You can change your life direction this way.
What is, is. If you find yourself in turmoil the most important thing is to dissolve the turmoil before you jump into action. Deep breathing, good water, and look at beauty. Go outside if you have a garden, or look outside at some greenery if that is what you can do. Allowing overwhelm to fade allows you to think more clearly. This will assist your active use of The Law of Attraction. Now you can start imagining what you want to be your next outcome, focus your intention, and enjoy your idea.
Savoring, simmering your idea strengthens your vibration of attraction. Now you are on your way because now the universe is responding to your uplifted feeling. The universe is always responding to you. While you watch the stock news, the flood news, the insurance advertisements. Got that remote?
We are brought up to doing something about it NOW! Grab the bull by the horns and get going. Sweat out a plan!
How does that feel? What is the vibration in that attitude? You see where you can slow down a bit, and get into the feeling that you want to deliberately create to be a result of your life actions, even if you do not know the details.
Negative emotions are temporarily motivating. You can instantly identify that this is not how you want life to feel, and take your first deep breath. Knowing that you have The Law of Attraction in constant creation, just say loudly to yourself, "I'm changing this now". If someone is backing you into a corner and yelling what they're saying probably is not important, but keep breathing and keep changing your turmoil that way. When they are done, ask politely "could you please put that in a memo?".
Positive emotions are your key to a deliberately created life! By design of culture, the human factors and current psychology dictates complexity, and tangling with analysis. You may as well fall down a rabbit hole.
The path of least resistance is to be like a little child. Imagine, and FEEL how it could be, to make life better.

Completely Disillusioned - Get Your Edge Back
If you feel like you have lost your edge on the art of deliberate creation, your act of power is to turn away from financial disasters. Get grounded again and recover the vibration, the feeling, the essence of YOU creating a miracle now.
Believe in yourself as your own miracle coach. First of all, small steps.
Exclude the world as much as you reasonably should. Without abandoning obligations cut down on the news and disaster event reporting. Focus on the grounding activities in your life that you have control over.
*** What you eat
*** What you drink
*** What you do for the close people in your life, small things
***What you say
*** Be reliable
***Help others
In an emergency situation like global financial collapse, it's okay to start with the outer if your inner world is just too shaky. Talk positive, and the responses you get from others who are groping for productive thoughts will reinforce your own. Gently guide those around you to thinking more creatively- just a little, not requiring ludicrous leaps of faith. That could keep you so busy that your attention cannot flip back to the "this is so hopeless" kind of mentality.
If you think it is no big thing to have your attention on positive thoughts for three minutes, search "the battle for your mind" and read the results. It's astounding. Your precious mind is being grabbed, hooked, hijacked all the time. It is only YOUR mind if you direct it.
The melodrama of the daily events, as interpreted by attention stealing private interests, in the best of times, is there to distract you from YOU. You who can create a miracle now, with your thoughts and feelings, are being distracted all the time. Who benefits?
You have a self help coach now. You. You have done it before and now you are going to get grounded again, with deep breathing, perhaps meditation, reading your child a story, massaging your partner's back, trimming the roses, taking a walk.
Your mind is your domain. It is your workshop, your miracle place. Because in my opinion, every moment that you govern your own mind IS a miracle. The competition is intense - TV, advertising, etc.
You can makes choices about where you will put your attention most of the time, how you will influence the attention of those around you, and how you will help your partner, children, elders, and neighbors feel better at every given opportunity.
Since you have the Law of Attraction to work with, start wherever you can start. If you cannot make your self feel better right now, make someone else feel better. It's amazing how great someone else's gratitude can make you feel when your own is a little out of reach.
Be your own miracle consultant. The Success Switch can show you how.

How To Avoid Losing A Positive Attitude
It's understandable that your goals for focusing on a healthy motivation for staying positive nowadays may only trigger a feelings of anxiety and helplessness. If your conscious attitude for staying in tune with your visions of success is not working so well, or maybe you are fearing failure, try some easy mind reprogramming.
Understanding that you get what you think about can be scary. While watching a stock report on television, how can you be focusing on your goals for success? It only takes a few minutes of viewing all the disasters in the world before you start feeling anxiety and helplessness. Stop!
One way you can improve the situation faster is to focus on today. Only today. Whether you are reading this at 11:55 pm or 6:00 am, start right now.
Deliberate creation always starts right now. There is no other moment.
Take a long deep breath. Focus on your conscious attitude. However you phrase it to yourself. Go with the flow, paddle downstream, don't push the river, there are many famous slogans you might like. Or something more personalized, scripture based, whatever has been working for you.
What are some daily successes you may experience that you do not really acknowledge?
*** I actually felt relaxed for a few minutes.
*** I really enjoyed that quiet dinner with ____.
*** I love playing the goof with my 4 year old.
*** I escaped listening to my favorite music - whew.
*** The common household tasks created a little harmony and satisfaction for me.
Sometimes experiences like the above list create guilt. Like it's cheating to feel good when the state of the world is Quantum Catastrophe, a horror movie scenario. Guilt! What a concept! Shake it off and move on.
Your time and place of personal power is only ever right here right now. This is when you manifest a miracle. If you're thinking about creating a miracle you're not thinking about the black hole of corrupt banking policies or one man's Ponzi scheme. You are deliberately making good choices right now.
You have miraculous moments every day. Maybe they are too fleeting, so reflect on them. When you have a five minute break, go over the last two hours. What were the best moments? Pick one and savor it a little.
Think about this factor - the professional media environment knows how to get your attention (usually through inspiring fear or terror). How do YOU get your attention back? You MUST have a plan.
Avoid losing the positive attitude you've probably worked long and hard for. Staying positive and enjoying your attitude of healthy motivation, successes and goals, takes moments a day.
Turn on your Success Switch right now!

Let Your Manifesting Miracles Simmer in Delicious Anticipation
If you are practicing deliberate creation, you are reviewing all your lists, appreciation lists, gratitude lists, improvement lists, and so on. Right now especially, continue to let those reality creations simmer so you can keep up that delicious anticipation.
You are committed to change your life direction. You know that like attracts like and that The Law of Attraction always works, no matter what.
Getting pulled into the whirlpool of human drama - especially banking drama - and almost drowning, means you are now attracting outcomes that are not on any of your cherished lists.
Things change, and change again. The external world keeps shifting, like scenery rolling by. You can attract the scenery you want. Doing smart things with your money right now, being prudent about spending and budgeting well does not mean you have to vibrate any differently.
If the evening news gives you a nervous stomach, do not watch it. The fear-mongering attached to the global banking irresponsibility is as shameless as the financial practices that led to the credit freeze.
You are still on the part of the planet where the stomachs are half full, as opposed to the part where people would be celebrating if their stomachs were only half empty.
Get back to your Law of Attraction processes, meditations or other positive productive activities and keep simmering the delicious anticipation of your creativity.
Can't feel it right now?
Ask your kids what their dream vacation would be, and listen closely. Tune in to their reality creation. Enjoy it. Get them to write it down, or write it yourself, in a journal for them and tell them to put it in a special place.
Just say "W_A_L_K" in front of your dog and tune in to its delight.
Stay on track and you will continue to experience the miracles now, as you vibrate with them. To manifest a miracle is not out of your reach.
For more help with staying in the vibration you prefer, go here.

Avoid Confusion in Self-Improvement
Change Your Life Direction
Self-improvement is considered to be a good thing. We can evolve, we are optimistic, we are humble, we can be and do better. The inner critic can really thrive on this if it is not modified by focused intention on our goals, in reference to what we want rather than what we don't want. To change your life direction and avoid confusion, define things for yourself and don't get caught up in dumbed-down re-education systems that capture your focus with slogans and catch phrases.
In striving for self-improvement, remaining independent and being able to ask for help when needed, is a balance worth aiming for.
There are many social fitness gurus and organization systems that demand an amazing degree of adaptation to lifestyle changes that take you out of the social mainstream, rather than successfully further into it.
In addition to that, many systems strongly enforce bringing others into them. After your journey into self-improvement, you may be too busy to apply anything to your life. You are encouraged to actually give up your life to share the system full time. "Sharing" has become a word that makes the hair on my neck stand up. Groups really want you to hard sell.
Emotional and intellectual support is expected by the (often anxious) self-improver. A new vision is hoped for, that replaces confusion with clarity, insecurity with confidence, and jumbled bits of philosophy heard about on the tv talk shows, with certainty.
An involvement in study scheduled more than a couple of evenings a week, roughly a semester long, should be considered with discernment. Study days that don't allow for proper meals and sleep are obviously aimed at creating a weaker frame of mind in the participants. For whose benefit would that be? Needing proper nutrition and refreshing movement may be presented as needs that prove you are not truly focused on self-improvement. You allow physical functions to distract you, as a way out of facing up to your miserable deficiencies. What is wrong with you?
This is gourmet inner critic fodder. Yum.
Actually having a life and wanting to maintain it, during an extensive re-education program may be met with criticism of your lack of commitment. Commitment to what? And for whose benefit?
The one-size-fits -all transformation process is really one-size-fits-no one. If you are an individual, what system of any kind can possibly apply to you?
Using The Law of Attraction requires time with yourself, not all that much. It does requires some daily routines that help you to remember and recreate the good feeling of your desired outcome.
If you use a system that requires or encourages self criticism or criticism from others in order to "break" your old patterns of thinking, then it would follow that you require getting put back together again. There is usually a blueprint presented for that, not your own.
Avoid confusion. Change your life direction. Use your choice of meditation, contemplation, yoga, exercise, music, drawing, whatever helps you achieve a focused intention that helps you clarify your goals. Your goals, not someone else's. Use the simple Success Switch.
