Effective Change: Mystic Powers Or Positive Action?
Law of Attraction or Positive Mental Attitude: Which Way to Go?
We may all be searching for the meaning in life, but if we really want to affect change there’s a choice to be made. Do we choose to rely on passive wishing or positive action? Do we become a subservient vassal of the universe or the proactive protagonist of our own life?
The importance of this choice is clear. The repercussions of the way we choose to go will affect our whole life.
Despite a decline in church attendance, more and more people are turning to mystic powers to solve their problems. The reason for this? We all want a quick solution; something simple and pain free. Whilst we want to achieve a positive effect and reap the benefits of change, we aren’t prepared to pay the price: in effort or time. We want it easy and we want it now.
This desire leads us to buy into all sorts of things that promise to change our life with little effort on our part: magic, feng shui, talismans, crystals, etc. Although there is nothing wrong in believing any of these things will work; the problem is when we rely on them alone.
The Secret tapped into this need for a ‘quick fix’. It created a potent message in which God and the universe are inextricably linked. But isn’t using The Secret’s Law of Attraction the same as prayers to God asking him to sort out our problems for us rather than asking for the strength and wisdom to find our own solutions; or seeing a therapist expecting him/her to give us the answers rather than enabling us to find the answers for our self?
We wish for what we want and the universe gives it to us? It’s all so passive; too easy. No Pain – All Gain. Doesn’t it all smack a little of the miracle pill that will make us lose weight without trying, or the travelling peddler’s magical elixir?
The appeal of Law of Attraction is clear: wish for something hard enough and you’ll get it. But what do we do while we’re waiting for it to arrive?
While relying on any kind of mysticism and wishing may make us feel good, it’s unlikely to affect change if that is all we do. Rather than relying on LOA alone, what we need is a Positive Mental Attitude and to take some action.
When we’re positive in our outlook, not only do we attract people into our life with our positivity, we are more open and able to see opportunities when they arise. A PMA helps us to think outside the box as we’re more open to possibilities and a belief that things can (and will) work out.
So, if we want a positive change in our life, be it better health, friends, love and yes, even money, we have to take positive action to affect change and that means doing more than wishing for it to happen.
We can’t just sit back and (not matter how fervently we wish for it) expect whatever we want to miraculously arrive at our doorstep. In Life, we get out what we put in.
