Law of Attraction
The law of attraction, simply stated, says that your long standing
chronic thoughts - those thoughts that are mulling about inside your
head 24 hours a day, seven days a week, will eventually manifest in
the real world - Like attracts like.

There is some debate as to how those manifestations happen. Some say
it is metaphysical in nature, others say it is purely psychological.
Yet others state that it is a mixture of the two. However what nobody
argues about is the fact that it happens. Manifestations follow
thought as surely as night follows day.

Unfortunately most people not only do not control which thoughts they
entertain, most are not even aware of the thoughts that constantly
occupy their every waking hour. The consequence of this ignorance is
that their lives are created by their manifestations, which in turn
are created by their random (usually negative) chronic thoughts.

Evidence that this law works is clearly shown by the phenomenon of the
"Self fulfilling prophecy". In a self fulfilling prophecy the negative
chronic thoughts of a person result in the very situation that the
person fears. For example:

A man fears his wife will leave him. This fear occupies all his waking
thoughts 24/7. Because he fears she may run away with another man he
becomes very jealous and interrogates her every time she so much as
looks at another man. Because he fears that her friends might lead her
astray, he prevents her from seeing them. He is afraid to let her out
by herself in case she should not return so he restricts her movements
and accompanies her everywhere. The stress on his wife becomes
intolerable - and she leaves him. His chronic thoughts (my wife will
leave me), eventually manifested in reality and the manifestation
(albeit unwittingly), was created by himself.

Another example: A woman is afraid of going into hospital. This fear
occupies all her waking thoughts 24/7. Because she fears that going to
the doctors with a medical complaint may lead her to going into
hospital, she plays down any illness she has and refuses to see a
doctor about anything. Her reluctance to seek medical attention for
her complaints, means that relatively minor illnesses (that could have
been nipped in the bud by her family doctor) grow out of control and
result in serious debilitating illness which requires Hospitalisation.
Once again, her chronic thoughts (Hospitalisation), eventually
manifested in reality and the manifestation , was created by herself.

In this way we constantly create our own reality. Chronic thoughts
become real. Most people - like the two examples above - allow their
random, unregulated thoughts to create their lives for them, then
bemoan their circumstances little thinking that they themselves have
created those circumstances.

The law however, makes no distinction over whether your chronic
thoughts are positive or negative in nature. Whatever is kept in your
mind will manifest. If those chronic thoughts were instead carefully
cultivated to be positive thoughts of success and abundance instead of
negativity and fear, then the same powerful mechanism that rolled into
action to ruin the lives of our two examples above, would instead have
produced lives of success and abundance. No extra effort would be
needed, no extra resources would have been required. The rise to
greatness would have been as effortless and unstoppable as the above
examples descent into disaster.
