The Law of Attraction ~ Part III

This is the third of five articles in a series of The Laws of Attractions. These steps are to assist you in your journey to attracting the things you want in your life. These steps or a similar program you custom design for yourself will work. James Arthur Ray, author of the book Harmonic Wealth, said: "You must absolutely have something mentally, before you will ever have it physically." Going just a step further ~ you must have it mentally and be able to hold in your mind. Journaling can assist in doing this.

The third step is journaling. Keep a journal is an important part of our spiritual journey ~ by reviewing your journal on a regular basis you can determine your attitudes ~ desires ~ and your past thought patterns.

By examining your thoughts ~ you can determine what you are co-creating in your life. A prime example of this: After having a not so amicable breakup from a girlfriend, I reviewed my journal for the past year. During that period of time when I mentioned my girlfriend it was to complain, or talking about how I thought the relationship was about over~ and how I wanted out. Then I wondered why the relationship ended. Is it possible that I manifested what I was asking for? Did the Universe grant my wish? There may have been a dramatically different outcome in the relationship if I was writing words of affirmation on how I wanted the relationship to blossom….if I stated positive things about the relationship.

Journaling will reflect your prevailing thoughts ~ therefore giving you direct answers as to attitudes you need to change.

There is no right or wrong way to journal. It is about putting your feelings on paper. It is a private matter that does not have to be shared with others unless you feel it is necessary. Words do not have to be spelled correctly…the grammar does not have to be correct…. just write! I have known people who journal is made up of short stories to describe their day and emotions.
I suggest that you write your “visualization goals” in front of the journal. You may write about events that are happening…. which is good, but it is equally important to describe your emotions concerning those events. One of the goals of the journal is steer your emotions to being positive most of the time. Unless you record your emotions ~ how are you going to monitor them?
If in reviewing your journal if you notice there is a lot of negative energy associated with certain events or people ~ evaluate why you are having those emotions. If you can’t change the negativity~ it may be wise to eliminate or decrease your involvement with these events or people (of course this in not practical if the thing is your job).
Once every few days jot down your thoughts on the things you want to manifest….see if over time your emotions start getting stronger.

Journaling should be fun…it should be a way of releasing your creative energies…which will help turn your attitude more positive. The most important thing in this process is to do it consistency…the more you write….the more you can monitor the more you can change.
