Di and I spoke last night at the Tree of Life Inspiration Group in Moseley. Our talk was called ‘Cosmic Attraction – A Life Without Limits?’. I made a somewhat controversial statement…
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE LAW OF ATTRACTION
‘cos I do like to be a bit controversial, make people think and cut through the hype. Di and I presented an interesting debate with a very interactive audience…
Here’s what I wrote on Facebook this morning, for those who could not make it:
I don’t believe there is a LAW of Attraction (LoA), not the way it generally gets described and over-simplified and over-hyped:
- Thoughts don’t just become things. Thought can definitely sabotage our ability to harness what gets called the LoA and get into ‘the flow. Thoughts also greatly influence our feelings and it is this ‘feeligisation’ (as Dr David Hamilton calls it) which has a much greater impact.
- Like attracts like sometimes… also opposites sometimes attract.
- There are many so called natural laws, laws of spirituality, attraction, vibration etc, some for me are more believable than others. Your beliefs do have a tendency to create your reality – so pick good ones – they must be authentic for you though! People like Deepak Chopra explain such ‘Laws’ very well. Its not concrete though and such perspectives don’t work well for everyone.
So does this mean that only certain types of people can get into the flow and harness the LoA? I’d say definitely not. I am a hugely different personality style to Diane, yet we both manage to get into the flow regularly, we also work very well together, although it has taken some work to achieve this. We have become each other’s greatest teachers, because we are so different, yet have a common purpose.
There most definitely is an observable phenomenon, which gets referred to as the LoA. There’s lots of evidence to support how we connect with our energy, unfortunately much of it seems unreliable and unrepeatable. That does not mean it is not the way things can work, especially when you believe it. People have made a quantum leap between quantum physics and the LoA. Quantum physics proves nothing as yet, but is surely opens our minds to some amazing possibilities. We certainly have to be open and ‘calibrating’ highly in order to attract and connect with similarly highly calibrating ‘things’.
The way to tap into this phenomenon successfully is different for different people. We are all masters of the LoA – we generally attract and connect with what we focus on. We are conditioned and taught to focus on what we don’t want and to sabotage the good stuff with negative thinking and lousy beliefs. Identifying and acting according to your higher self, being authentic, identifying and aligning to your true values, finding ways to ‘be’ with authentic beliefs that serve you. Your beliefs do have a tendenacy to create your reality – so pick good ones – they must be authentic for you though! All of this gets you connected and into the flow.
I’ve worked with hundreds of people who want to believe in the LoA and have invested in themselves. Many are trying to force it to work. They have no powerful and authentic ‘why’, no true passion. For me, the real ‘Secret’ for many people has been found through the ‘Feel The Fear and Do It Anyway®’ workshops that we teach. The letting go of limitations and connecting to true and authentic potential has consistently been an incredible transformation, from which magic has flowed.

Hi, it’s Di here… and now I’ll share with you some of my experiences of how the Law of Attraction has shown up in my life…
I completely agree with Andy’s outlook on how it works – he is a very logical male and has such an incredible mind. He has challenged many of my own beliefs, just as I have challenged his… and together we have opened each other up to a Universe of possibilities…
For me, particularly after teaching the workshops that we’ve shared over the last 2 years, I know without doubt that we create our lives with our beliefs. I also firmly believe that we teach people how to treat us, so if someone has a belief that they’re not worthy, then that energy will come through in their body language, words and actions in their communication with others. People are less likely to respond favourably to us when we don’t feel we’re worthy… thus, we generally create our own outcomes with others by the energy we take into any situation and in the way we choose to respond to it. Respond with love and you will attract a very different outcome than if you respond with anger. Of course you will…
When we shift our limiting beliefs and step through our fears, then our energy calibration rises and we become one of those people who lights up a room when we enter it. Don’t you just love being around people like that..? These people teach others that they deserve love and respect, simply because they love and respect themselves. They will create very different outcomes for themselves because others will want to love them, help them, give to them, buy from them and so on… it all makes such perfectly logical sense. Andy is completely right; there really is no ‘secret’ to it…
However… in saying this, I have also experienced what I can only describe as magic and miracles in my life – so many incredible ‘coincidences’ that have flowed my way with such synergy and perfection at exactly the right time, and always just a short while after I’ve thought to myself ‘I’d really love that’… that I simply can’t explain the phenomenon away. I know it can’t just be down to just my beliefs – these perfect coincidences are far too significant for that. I agree completely that I was open to recognising them because I had recently wished for them, but the synergy of them showing up in the ways that they have is not explainable in my book. I do know for sure that when I make my wishes, the less attachment I have to the outcome, and the deeper the sense of fun that I make the wish with, the quicker and more accurately the perfect thing comes my way. I consider myself to be one of the luckiest people alive… a very empowering belief to have gifted myself with indeed.
For me, the LoA is a combination of the two elements – the energy within me, and the energy ‘out there’. I am definately responsible for creating the former, and I strongly believe that I am also responsible for the power of my connection to the latter. I’ve learned that magic and flow happens for me when: -
- I feel an overwhelming sense of love and gratitude for everyone and everything in my life…
- I have empowering beliefs that are completely in alignment with my values…
- I act with intention after an inspired thought… this opens unbelievable doors…
- I just know within my heart and soul that it’s on its way… and at the same time…
- By having no attachment to the outcome… instead, just feeling a sense of fun about life…
I feel so connected to this Universal energy that I know in my heart that I would be doing myself a huge disservice by saying that it’s simply all down to my own beliefs… they in themselves could not have drawn the perfection and synergy into my life that I’ve witnessed. In my personal experience, there is far more to it than that. Either that, or I am just the luckiest person alive!…
I adore having an open mind on the whole perspective, and I adore listening to and learning from everyone else’s perspective too… one thing I know for sure is that life is utterly amazing and I love every second of it.. the good, the bad and the indifferent – it’s all amazing

Obviously we firmly believe that it does and experience this every day in our lives. Yet, we know it is a contentious subject and not everyone believes it can or does work for them. These very beliefs are in fact the crux of the issue, for what you believe has a huge hand in creating your experience of reality.

Thank you Universe, for the way in which you have unfolded my incredible journey in life….
