When was the last time you got excited like a little kid?
Somehow we have it in our minds that being excited is silly or immature, when in fact that feeling - that positive surge of energy - is what life is all about. That excited feeling that made you jump up and down and clap spontaneously when you were a kid is what you need to cultivate in order to attract - to create - the life of your dreams. Think about it…if you have a vision of the things and circumstances you wish to create for your future, how do you FEEL when those visions are swimming in your head? Aren’t you excited, and vibrant, and happy?
You know from the Law of Attraction reading you’ve likely been doing that you need to be vibrationally in alignment with what you want, so if you aren’t acting excited, vibrant and happy, then how can you attract all that great ‘future’ stuff and circumstances?…
We don’t always express our positive emotions for fear of being seen as silly or unstable, and of course we are not advocating jumping up and down and clapping in the middle of a business meeting. Isn’t it true, however, that the people who are the most positive are the most fun to be around, the most uplifting and the most successful? I’m not talking about Pollyanna-type, ‘everything is always rosy’ positivity; this is deeper than that. Rather, what we are after is a deep, belief-based positivity that says you can always affect the way you perceive and deal with things and that there is always a solution if you ask the right questions. These deep beliefs are those which give you true confidence, such as ‘I am strong and resilient,‘ ‘Everything that happens is part of my perfect path,‘ ‘I can handle anything,‘ and ‘I always focus on what I want in any situation,‘ etc..
In the end, what does it matter what anyone else thinks? It’s your life to enjoy, and if you aren’t enjoying it, who will?…Your attitude and how enthusiastic and excited you get about your life affect how your life goes. It’s the Law of Attraction in action. Knowing this, why not use your emotions to create more of what you want? If you want joy, happiness, excitement and satisfaction, start allowing yourself to feel and express those very things!
If you’re a little stuck on the ‘how’ involved, try partaking in some simple things. Go to a fair and ride the ferris wheel, find a meadow and run through it or lie down in it and look up at the clouds. Quite simply, go to your nearest playground and just sit on the bench and watch the kids play. Kids are the best demonstrators of how to be excited and happy and live in the moment. Let your current fears and concerns go for a few minutes and just enjoy being alive. You may be surprised to find ‘negative’ feelings surging through you as you realize just how much pressure you have been putting on yourself. Pressure to be adult, to be successful, to be making the right decisions. Let these flow - they will dissipate quickly because you allow them to be felt. Relax…and allow yourself to get excited like a little kid. It’s a far healthier - and more effective - place to be. Enjoy!

[…] After being acquainted with the Law of Attraction for a while, these are the kinds of questions that I started to ask. It didn’t seem to fit at all. I feel that it is important that we ask questions and analyze new concepts before accepting them as true. Some people can see the immediate positive impact that applying the Law of Attraction can have on their lives and therefore accept it as true because they want it to be true. Accepting beliefs based on how they make you feel and act can be very beneficial and is a practice encouraged in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). For me in this instance though, this wasn’t good enough. Something with such far reaching implications like the Law of Attraction needs to be tested from different angles for authenticity. This one question was really the biggest sticking point I had with the law, and so it held the key to whether or not I was going to fully embrace it or not. […]

it was easier for me to accept i guess because of my more religious upbringing. i was a Christian and frequently saw my prayers answered. When i became a witch and some results to my spells and later on simple results to my wishes and desires. So when i learned about the law of attraction and looked back on my life i could see that i had indeed manifested just about everything both positive and negative.
