Why doesn’t the law of attraction work for me?

By Reginald Martin

I know there are many of us that ask that question daily. We have done all the things that the law of attraction pundits said to do and yet we still have life as it has existed for us right smack dab in our face. We start to wonder is the LOA just a bunch of bs. Could it be that the LOA just does not work for everybody? If it did wouldn’t everyone have all that they desire? What’s keeping me from realizing all that I desire? I know the LOA and do as I am taught, yet things don’t happen like I visualize them. What gives?

Congratulations
First of all, if you have started to ask those questions let me congratulate you. Because you are asking questions you are not being blindly lead. Let me also congratulate you for being brave enough to take responsibility for your life and how it is unfolding. U Create ALL in this plane of physical existence. Secondly let me say that it is ok to doubt. You are human and you must be able to accept all parts of your being and that means any imperfections that you perceive yourself as having. When you have doubt followed by earnest and seeking questions that is the first steps to growth and understanding and developing your unique experience in human form. To blindly follow and never question would simply be a religion. God knows we don’t need any more of those. You are becoming a conscious creator.

Did the LOA stop working for me?
Please allow me to explain why things may not be working as you visualize them at this time. Remember that you are a soul. You incarnated for the experience of being human. Part of that experience is to learn certain life lessons. As a soul before you chose a certain life and its circumstances because that life would give you the potential to experience certain things. For example, if you chose a life of privilege you may never have to feel what it is like to wonder where you are going to get the money to pay your light bill. However, because of the privileged life your parents have the money to send you to boarding school for most of your childhood and teenage years of development. You may feel unloved by your parents because they did not spend time caring for you and raising you. As a child you had everything money could buy.

A lesson that you as a soul may want to experience is to learn that you see your self as being worthy of love and not feeling like another thing to possess. You will develop a belief system based largely on your upbringing. Based on your beliefs you will create your experience through a need to feel worthy of love. Remember thought/belief is cause. Based on beliefs developed from your environment you will start to attract your experience to yourself.

 

The thing with beliefs that people often times don’t realize is that you may be conscious of one belief but not be aware of it floating on top other beliefs and underlying fear(s). in the above example you may be aware of the need to feel worthy of love, but still feel that others need to show you in different ways. You may be looking for that feeling coming from outside yourself when the lesson is that it is you that has to know your are loved by you. Until you learn the lesson different scenarios will be attracted by you into your life that will stimulate those emotions and perceptions of being unworthy. You can visualize someone loving you but not realizing the love should be from inside. Until you, consciously understand what it is that you are to learn the lesson keeps repeating. You must change your thinking/beliefs to change your experience. This takes much introspection.

The Laws of the Universe always work
Another reason that you may feel the LOA is not working is that you asked the universe for something that is out of the norm for you current circumstance. For example, you are in a job that you hate. It does not pay enough, the coworkers are lousy, the conditions are lousy and you want to make a change. Because you are now conscious of the LOA you ask the universe for wealth and prosperity. You visualize exactly what you want! All of a sudden you get laid off! In this terrible economy that is not a good thing at all! How will you make it day to day let alone get wealthy? You can the say the LOA is not working. Or is it? The universe will give you what you ask. At this point you can really get down and depressed and focus on the misfortune. Or you can start to come up with ways to earn income. Maybe you have a million dollar idea that you would never have considered while you were employed. The universe is moving things around for you to realize your vision of wealth and prosperity. You have to recognize the opportunities and move on them when they arise. If you believe that you are a creator you will take steps to make your vision come true. If you feel that life just happens to you and take the mentality of a victim then the universe will bring to you what you perceive. You have a choice and free will to decide what your human experience will be at anytime. The laws of the universe work without fail at all times!

Understand that when you are in alignment with your purpose for incarnating things can go smoothly for you. All things that occur in life are for achieving that purpose. You do have the free will do go in any direction you want. It will be a lot more difficult if you are not aligning with your purpose. If you do not learn the lessons and find the purpose in this life you will get the chance to work on it again. However, because of the laws of the universe it may be a little tougher lesson to learn the next time around. The LOA is always working. Whether you are conscious of it or not, whether you believe it or not.

The good news is that you are conscious of it now. It is up to you to decide what your focus is going to be. Will you focus on the difficult circumstances that you have today, or visualize the way you want them to be? “Ask and it is given, knock and the door will be opened.” This is where faith in your ability to create will have to come into play. “The Father knows what you need before you ask.” You already have it. You simply need to allow and attract it into your experience.

Are you a brave soul?

Hi Reginald, I like it how you incorporate life lessons/purpose with LOA. Because the Universe responds constantly to our vibrational output, a good approach to have things go our way, is to follow our bliss. Creating that sense of inner happiness and fulfillment, opens up the doors we were meant to open during this lifetime. Trying to manifest while resisting the natural flow (lessons/purpose) won’t get results. In the boarding school example you mention, focusing on the lack of love, means delaying learning the lesson, and resisting the vibration of love at the same time. When we learn that love comes from within, we resonate with the vibration of love and attract it into our life. After all, two sides of the same coin… :-)

Wow Palma! You have a great way of understanding what I write and then simplifying it. :)
You said “Because the Universe responds constantly to our vibrational output, a good approach to have things go our way, is to follow our bliss.”
That is really life in a nutshell. Follow our bliss. I guess the problem that many of us have is finding that bliss. Our life’s journey is about finding it. However, once we do find it, I believe we still have built in us a need to expand consciously and create. And yes to be loved and to love ourselves is two sides of the same coin. you attract what you are. :)

These are some great insights! It`s difficult watching people try to use the law of attraction when they have no underlying understanding of universal laws and fundamentals.

Keep on giving great advice like this, and people will find their way :)
