Several weeks ago, I downloaded a series of audios from The 11 Forgotten Laws, by Bob Proctor. While listening to the material, I was introduced to a book by Raymond Holliwell, 'Working With the Law.' I went to Amazon.com right away and purchased this book, and boy am I glad I did. It is an awesome book. I have learned a great deal from those 184 pages. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn how to make their life everything they want it to be. If one wants to learn how the Law of Attraction works, how to make it work for personal advancement and successful living, this is the book to read.
Mr. Holliwell's book discusses the 11 Laws or Truths, for successful living. In other words, he talks about how the law works and how it can and should be applied. What are these laws you ask?
- The Law of Thinking
- The Law of Supply
- The Law of Attraction
- The Law of Receiving
- The Law of Increase
- The Law of Compensation
- The Law of Non-Resistance
- The Law of Forgiveness
- The Law of Sacrifice
- The Law of Obedience
- The Law of Success
The main challenge to each of us, as human beings, is to adapt our thought processes to draw to us the things that we desire. Most people walk through life paying very little attention to the things they think about and become surprised by the direction their lives are going in.
There are some who think it selfish to want more out of life, and this is not true. There is nothing selfish about wanting more, as long as what you want does not subtract from someone else's life or happiness.
Be grateful for the things you already have. Appreciate the people and things you have in your life today, that you may have more tomorrow. Mr. Holliwell says, "Be ever grateful for the very least of things and the very most will come to you."
If one is not grateful for that which he already has, it is not likely that he will be any more grateful for any increase in life; therefore, that desired increase is not to be realized.
For example: A man has a car. It is not a new car. It is not an attractive car. However, the car is reliable and gets the man from point A to point B. The man is always complaining about the car being old and ugly, and that is what he has chosen to focus on. He is not grateful to have a car that gets him to where he wants to go. He whines about how he has worked all his life and deserves a better looking car than the one he has.
One morning, he gets ready to leave for work only to find that the tree in his yard has fallen on the car. Now he has no car at all; new, old, ugly or beautiful.
What he did was to manifest the destruction of his car, by not appreciating the fact that it did the job it was supposed to do, by taking him where he needed to go. He complained about how much he disliked the car, so the universe took it away.
Did he get a shiny new car? Nope! His insurance only paid out a little bit on the car, because it was old and ugly. So, he was stuck buying an older, used car, not the brand new one he really wanted.
He didn't like the car, but he should've been grateful for the simple fact that he had a car, that the car started each morning and took him to work and brought him back home at the end of the day.
So, now this man is in his replacement car, driving down the road, when it quits running. The car just stops dead, and won't start again. The man is late for work, and his boss fires him.
Now he no longer has a reliable vehicle or a job for it [vehicle] to take him to. Now he has no way to buy a newer vehicle. He's got to take the bus to look for a new job.
To add insult to injury, this man starts yelling at God, for his misfortune, instead of realizing his own responsibility in the situation. It was his own thought process that brought him to where he is, not God, not bad luck, not fate.
That is how the law works. You get what you think about, and if you don't think in a positive fashion with gratitude and praise, you will not attract positive happenings into your life.
Ingratitude breeds lack. Gratitude breeds abundance.
Think of it this way... Say that you do a favor for someone. If they don't appreciate what you've done, how likely is it that you will do this person a favor in the future?
Focus not on problems, but their solutions. When one focuses on the problem, rather than its solution, the problem grows larger. If a man has a sliver in his finger causing him pain, does he sit there and cry about the pain as the sliver festers and becomes infected, or does he pull the sliver from his finger and apply the necessary first-aid so that the pain goes away and the finger does not become infected; is healed?
Mr. Holliwell also states, " Resistance as a means of securing peace and harmony is a mistaken and misleading idea. True harmony cannot come from inharmony, nor peace from discord. Resistance fails because it is not in accord with harmony and order, which is the Law." (For example: if you don't like candidate X, rather than focusing on how much you don't like him, (campaigning against him) focus on the candidate that you prefer. Give your energies the right direction.) Resistance gives the negative power. Acceptance allows us to move forward and make the negative less powerful and more susceptible to change (solution).
We must not dwell upon that which we DO NOT want, but expend our energies on thoughts of that which we DO want. Never limit yourself in your goals by thinking that you don't deserve your desires, or that they are too lofty and difficult to reach. Think about how great it will be when you have reached them. Think about them as though they are already in your hand. Think about the steps that must be taken to reach your loftiest of goals. Decide what you want, expect that you will get it and go for it!
