Law of Attraction – the Key to Corporate Success

As an experienced strategic marketing consultant of 17 years, some 5 years ago I got into personal development and then discovered the Law of Attraction (LoA). After learning about and playing with the LoA, cutting through the hype and using my science and research background to study it, I came to realise a few things:

• The Law of Attraction is surrounded by mystery and hype
• Whilst the exact scientific explanations are not conclusive, there is plenty of observable evidence to back up the phenomenon. Although the meta-physics gets over-hyped…  it does open our mind to many amazing possibilities
• We are all, already masters of the Law of Attraction – we just need to recognise, harness and focus this on what we truly and authentically desire
• Authenticity and alignment to core values is a key factor
• Demolishing hidden limiting beliefs is another key factor
• The Law of Attraction works by energetic connection – like the poles of a magnet can attract or repel – learning how not to be in repel mode is a key factor.
• Success in using the Law of Attraction and Cosmic Ordering is about experiencing these energetic connections and the feelings behind them -

So what does this have to do with corporate success? EVERYTHING

These energetic connections underpin all aspects of corporate performance.

Organisations are made up of people connecting and doing. The quality of those connections determines the effectiveness of all leadership, sales, marketing, communication  and human resources activity.

These Law of Attraction tools and principals can be used to inspire a corporate culture of efficiency and effectiveness, achieving alignment and authenticity, creating flow, success and abundance. From this single initiative comes: employee engagement, emotional intelligence, improved teamwork, lasting successful partnerships with customers and suppliers, imparting brand values, increased trust and rapport (with everyone), staff retention…this list goes on and on.

As with most initiatives, top level buy-in, with leaders walking the talk is important. A huge difference is the level of empowerment and personal responsibility everyone can experience from the bottom up. Most/all aspects of everyone’s lives will be enhanced, not just the corporate bottom line and organisational performance metrics. So it is a win:win all round. Not only that, the often dramatic increases in positivity, responsibility, empowerment, respect, co-operation and rapport make the workplace fun and fulfilling.

How Much Scepticism is Too Much Scepticism?

I recently ran into someone (we will call him Ken) who has been steadily and successfully making changes to his life. Ken reminded me of myself… up until 4 years ago – he was actively sceptical about many things, especially from the world of personal development. In fact Ken spent a lot of time and energy on being sceptical…. I have to say that I am too (still, sometimes)… and I recognise that this can be a double-edged sword… I’ll explain why:

I like to research and seek evidence for much of what people may want me to believe and I certainly don’t just take it at face value. In the past, my research and evaluation would be very much based on gathering information – the line between this and procrastination sometimes becomes very blurred. Now, I still may chose to do some research – and I don’t rely on it. Instead I use my intuition – I can quickly and confidently make reliable decisions.

Having spent a lot of time around the personal development market and a considerable amount of money on things like NLP training, mastery of life courses, coaching etc, I am not a great believer in the ‘magic bullets’ claimed by many. I’ve seen that the majority of people don’t manage to change much or meet their objectives. Change, or transformation as I call it, can be achieved quickly and dramatically. However, it does take a radical change in beliefs, an alignment to your values, plus a new sense of purpose. It also requires a holistic approach… changes to many/most aspects of your life – particularly the energy you are in.

I have personally gained an immense amount from the last 4-5 years of personal development, albeit, I’ve needed to cut through a lot of ‘hype’ – I’ve learned to be discerning and holistic. I have also made an internal journey from being ‘locked’ into my logical (and sceptical) left brain, to also being able to use more of my right brain (creative, intuitive, fearless, trusting but not gullible). True power comes from optimal use of both these aspects of your self.

I realise (now), from personal experience, that too much scepticism holds you back. It creates limiting beliefs that your ego thrives on. This is how I was until the age of 38, when I decided enough was enough and had my first few glimpses of new ways of ‘being’. I know for my own part (and many others that I have worked with) that putting the ego back in its proper place is a massive step forward to breaking out of the ‘small box’ that our comfort zone imprisons us (all) in.

The great danger with scepticism is that – it is our beliefs that shape our destiny and achievements in life. Scepticism shapes our beliefs and feeds our ego which wants to keep us ‘safe’ and therefore stops us from expanding our horizons and achievements.

My experience and new ways of ‘being’ have a major impact on my levels fulfilment and success in life. This in turn has helped me to develop new empowering beliefs. For me, it has been a steady process of change. I know realise that being flexible enough to become discerning rather than sceptical and to affirm positive, empowering beliefs up front, without waiting for hindsight – can truly accelerate the process of empowerment, transformation and enlightenment.

Your Cosmic Identity

I absolutely love this quote from Marianne Williamson, which I came across in Susan Jeffers‘ brilliant book: ‘The Feel The Fear Guide To Lasting Love‘. Marianne’s quote comes from a lecture entitled ‘All I Give Is Given To Myself’.

“If you live your life on the basis of a trashy novel, the Universe will follow suit. But if you live life as a cosmic identity, like someone who matters, then the universe will take you seriously”.

This is totally what the Law of Attraction is all about. You have to take yourself seriously before the universe will. You have to be authentic and find your true cosmic identity in order to he in alignment with the universal laws and flow of abundance.
