There is a great secret that has been around since the creation of the universe. Those who have realized this secret have become the most successful people throughout history. The greatest teachers, philosophers, inventors, religious leaders, and world changers have understood the secret and have used it to their advantage. Once a person understands the secret they are empowered to change their world and receive anything they desire.
This secret that has influenced societies is the law of attraction. Everything in your life is attracted to you by your thoughts. The things that you think about become reality. Whether positive or negative, thoughts will become reality. If you think that you can’t do something, you are right. If you think that you have no limits, you are also correct. You have a choice to believe that you have no control over you life and are subject to things happening to you or that you will have good things happen to you and you are in control of your life. The law of attraction works whether you are conscious or unconscious of it. Your thoughts are constantly sending out a frequency to the universe and the universe responds by giving your thoughts what they asked for. If you have lack in your life it is because consciously or unconsciously you attracting those things to you. Conversely, you can attract the things you do want in your life by changing the pattern of thoughts and the frequency that you are sending out to the universe. The universe will respond to those new thoughts because the law of attraction is as enduring and predictable as the law of gravity.
Humans have tens of thousands of thoughts each day. It would be exhausting to attempt to monitor each thought. Luckily, there are shortcuts to making the law of attraction work for you and becoming aware of what you are thinking. Your feelings are a great tool to help you realize what you are thinking. Feelings are the products of thoughts and therefore can be used to monitor thoughts. If you are have good feelings, feeling joy and laughter and love throughout your life, then your thoughts are in the right place and you are using the law of attraction appropriately. If your are feeling scared, depressed, or any other negative emotion then you know that you are sending out the wrong frequency to the universe and your thought life is off-track.
