Skeptics and the Law of Attraction

You've heard them. You know the ones. "The Law of Attraction is damaging to an individual. This is a selfish belief that people made up so they can think of only themselves."

Give me a break.

There are so many different subjects that a skeptic can pick on and just because they don't believe what you do, they believe this somehow gives them the right to tell everyone their opinion as if it is the only fact.
 

There are many things in this world that cannot be seen, cannot be touched but are as real as you and I.

So do we attack the skeptics for their beliefs? If you are a true believer in the Law of Attraction, you don't. Because the Law of Attraction is about allowing others their own opinions and perceptions without judgment and stay in the world you are creating. Let the skeptic create his own world.

Whatever rings true for you is the path you should follow. If the Law of Attraction is it, then so be it. If another belief is it, then ditto. What I personally take issue with is condemning another person for their right to believe whatever rings true for them.

It's interesting how quickly someone will believe another with a strong opinion and then pick it up as his or her own belief. You can listen to others that preach against or you can think about what you prefer to be and create your own you: the person without judgment on others, the person who minds his own business and takes care of his own world, the person who can think for himself no matter what anyone says and comes out with a 'ring true' belief for his self.

The Law of Attraction gives others hope. Hope that they can achieve whatever their heart desires no matter what state their life is in. You can become what you want. This isn't selfish. This is taking initiative, this is being responsible for your life, this is being happy. What's wrong with being grateful and thankful and have what you deserve in life?

The Law of Attraction sounds easy to apply but there are many factors to how it works in your life. It works whether you believe it does or not. Just because you focus on one thing over and over again and it doesn't come into existance doesn't mean it isn't working. There are many emotions and thoughts that you have daily that can cause something not to be attracted to you even when you focus. That is why it is important to learn the ropes of the Law of Attraction by changing your own self within to get it to work the way you want it to.

I saw The Secret movie just a few days ago. Also like many others felt uplifted for a few days. Then I started to think logically. Read lots of other people opinions about the so called law of attraction and then tried to remember some events from my past and came up with a conclusion that the law does not work in a way how it was presented in the movie. Here is the answer why. I used to have a great addiction to gambling. Lost lots of money. I used to visualize that I become a millioner by making money out of gambling. It was a really VERY strong belief. But it never happened. I gambled over 2 years. Every day. Has thousand of positive dreams and so on. I lived with that 24/7. But the miracle did not happen. I was losing money in the end. Another example is that myself, like many other people, had a single-sided love (I am not a native English speaker and do not know the right expression, but I mean a thing when one person loves another but the other does not). I dreamed, thought pray
