Law of Attraction : A Gimmick Or What?!
I received an E-mail from Alex Shalman today with a link to his Law of Attraction : Is It A Gimmick Blog Post

And it turns out Alex and Steven Aitchison, two bloggers I highly respect are talking about the Law of Attraction.
The first thing I thought was, “Wow! What a great attraction!” and I’ll tell you why at the end of this post.
But first let’s look a little closer at that G-word:
Gimmick : “In marketing language, a gimmick is a unique or quirky special feature that makes something “stand out” from its contemporaries.”
- Source : Wikipedia
Is The Law of Attraction A Gimmick?
I think I attracted this into my life because there are still so many people out there who need to know the astonishing power of the Law of Attraction.
So… Is the Law of Attraction a gimmick?
Definitely not.
But is The Secret a gimmick?
It definitely is.
But it’s a good gimmick in that Rhonda Byrne used special effects and compelling music that imbues this powerful message into the viewer.
So it “stands out” and really creates a powerful impression in the viewer who now wholeheartedly believes in this Universal Law.
“So Why Doesn’t The Law of Attraction Work For Me?”
This is one of the most common questions I get after getting my Inspired Action Package
Here’s the top three reasons:
1) You Are Attracting Everything Subconsciously
This is the #1 reason why you’re not attracting anything you want.
For instance, I recently wanted to attract $10,000 into my life and then I found out that I was subconsciously repelling the idea from me.
i) I didn’t feel like I deserved payment and
ii) I was playing the game afraid to lose (watch a video of my explanation here) and so because I was concentrating on that, I began to attract more fear of losing and I only attracted about $100.
I’ll tell you more about that $10,000 attraction in a second but first, let’s move on to the second reason.
2) You Are Concentrating On What You Don’t Want
Let me give you the best example :
“I want to lose weight”
Do you realize that you’re concentrating on what you don’t want whenever you say that?
Another example I received a few days ago:
“I want to be debt-free.”
Now, are you beginning to see how you might be sabotaging your own success with the Law of Attraction?
You might be concentrating on what you don’t want and you’re attracting exactly that - the Law of Attraction is working all the time.
3) You Are Not Taking Inspired Action
The Law of Attraction is just one law.
There are others like the Law of Polarity that I discussed in My Million Dollar Idea + Law of Polarity = ???
and I have recently written on a Law that has been very important in my life, The Law of Inspired Action.
The Law of Inspired Action is all about following your inner nudges.
Have you ever gone after something you wanted so badly and then there came a point when you just didn’t know what to do?
Did you follow your intuition at that crossroad?
If you did, what happened for you?
I live like that everyday, following what I call Inspiration and it has been working out great for me.
Do I Have Any Personal Success Stories?
Steven Aitchison has asked his readers for such stories so, here you go Steven!
Remember the $10,000 I wanted to attract?
I created the Inspired Action Coaching Program and that will attract me about that amount into my life or more =)
How about the time my web host’s datacenter blew up and I only had a backup in March?
I attracted everything back and even the webhost guy was shocked and you can read further explanation of it in my post “How The Law of Attraction Saved My Blog?”
Okay, you might be thinking, “That’s great for you, you’ve been doing this for some time.”
How about the many Law of Attraction Inner Circle Coaching Club members?
One of the women, Kathy Klinger not only attracted a pay raise once, she did that twice and she even attracted a greater working environment and that’s the result of what I call The Gratitude Altitude.
So Is The Law of Attraction A Gimmick?
Of course not. It’s a Universal Truth and it could very well change your life as I and many others across the globe has found out, and like Steven Aitchison, you should be teaching this to your kids.
If you want to learn and emulate my success with the Law of Attraction and my readers, download your Inspired Action Package and get yourself a copy of my book “Secrets of the Overachievers : 5 Magic Steps For Turning Your Thoughts Into Money Or.. Anything Else!” and I’ll coach you for the next 2 weeks until you begin attracting miracles into your life. =)

I love the posts. Thank you for sharing, Alex, Steven, and Saif.
So, when one says “I want to be debt-free” (attracting the wrong thing), what’s the statement one should use in its stead?
Thank you.

Thanks for the post, I agree. Like anything else, the Law Of Attraction takes practice. You can’t just watch The Secret and then manifest anything into your life. The thoughts, faith, and beliefs need to become a habit.
