Will its philosophy actually make a difference to your life or is it a hoax?

What is it?

The law of attraction is essentially your mind and actions working together in unison to obtain a desired goal or objective. And that there is a magic aspect to life that has been passed down the ancient scriptures for thousands of years.

The Law of Attraction is endorsed by a number of minor and global celebrities directly saying that they used it to help them achieve their goals and fulfill there visions Bob Proctor — Proctor institute. Conor McGregor MMA superstar, Oprah Winfrey TV host, Sylvester Stallone filmmaker and actor, and countless more.

Let's put the magic aspect to it aside for a moment, everything you do is always creating a specific result, it just so happens when you use intention your results tend to be more predictable. If you intent to, and commit to doing 25 pushups a day for 12 months, you would have done 9,125 pushups in that period of time which would result you in a different physical body. The intention and commitment over a period of time whatever it is WILL make massive changes.

What are your intentions and are you committing?

If you have no intentions you are unconsciously following a pattern of behaviour that will lead you somewhere. and most of the time if we are not living with intention our behaviours follow the easy now harder later type of lifestyles.

take a man or woman living a mediocre life with no goals and no intentions whatsoever, if you could magically upload into their subconscious and consciousness mind a powerful purpose of their life, you will notice changes.
Their behaviour will change, their attitude and energy levels will change resulting over a period of time different results then they would of otherwise had.

If you always do what you've always done, you always get what you've always got.

When I seen this quote for the first time I was living in community housing for homeless youths, it was 15 words put together in a way that was very significant to my life and the direction it went from there. I realised I had followed a very trivial pattern of behaviour and I understood that I needed to look beyond my environment and pursue a purpose.

I became obsessed with personal development, I seen NO opportunities around me that could lead me to any type of success but I seen it in my mind and I felt it within my body. The influencers I listened to — Les Brown, Bob Proctor, Napoleon Hill, Tony Robbins, Robin Sharma and many more influenced my paradigm of possibility.

believing I could create some form of success contributed to new habits and actions which did in fact resulted in significant changes in my life.

To me the changes felt like magic, but in truth I just changed the things I thought about, which changed the things I did which changes the situations I found myself in. It is magic to some degree but more so it's the power of cause and effect.

Gabrielle Bernstein Author of The Universe Has Your Back

During my obsession with personal development I stumbled upon this book by Gabrielle Bernstein.

amazing book with a lot of amazing tools, but Ill never forget an experience I had while listening to it. Nearly half way through the audio version she was explaining how I should ask the universe for a sign that it was listening to me, and that if I believed it …that it would happen. I was extremely skeptical but I was decided against what I thought to be true and false and went with it.

I was at work on a construction site operating plant machinery when I asked the universe to show me a sign it was listening by the form of an elephant. I wanted to see an elephant and on a level i felt silly but on another I expected to see one.

2 hours went past and nothing. Until I recieved a snapchat notification from my little brother. I opened it, and there was my proof that the universe was listening. It was the cover of a book, with a yellow elephant on it, which to me was more significant. It wasn't enough for the universe to give me my elephant, but a book to go with it.

From this moment on I had a faith that the universe had my back, any advertasys I go through I know I grow through, and problems I have, I know it leads me to something better. So, my attitude towards life became more optimistic which made the world of difference to it.

If you close yourself up from the world, you close yourself up to the blessings it can give you everyday.

So, Fact or Fiction?

The law of attraction is both fact and fiction. To me it is true because i've seen its miracles, but to someone who doesn't believe it, they will never open themselves up to it. but the true magic… is how you are able to change your actions and transend your results.
