Sunday, June 17th, 2007How can we utilize the Law of Attraction to turn our lives around? Rhonda byrne did it, Tamara Baruhovich ( the author of this article ) did it . . . and so can you . Discover how with this great article on the power of intention. We’re always talking about the power of positive thinking - explore this phenomenal power.
The Law of Attraction and The Power of Intention.
by Tamara Baruhovich
Many of us become more open to the possibilities that The Law of Attraction and The Power of Intention can provide when we are in distress, and more so when distress is present simultaneously in several areas of our life.
It’s been said that when it rains it pours, and that is exactly what happens. As soon as one area of our life falls out of balance, other areas start falling one after the other and often just as fast as a domino effect. According to The Law of Attraction and The Power of Intention, this makes total sense. Instinctively, our minds tend to focus on the problem at hand in an attempt to find a solution. This generates a “worry state” that creates negative vibrations which in turn bring about other negative conditions in our lives.
Actually, Rhonda Byrne, the producer of “The Secret” mentions at the beginning of her acclaimed movie that she was in a situation where everything seemed to be going wrong after the death of her father. She had worked herself into exhaustion, had no money and her personal relationships were suffering as well. Have you been in that kind of a situation where nothing seems to be going right?
I know I have. Not long ago, I was going through a divorce. Right about that time, I lost my job, and had no money and no home. On top of that, the stress was getting the best out of my health. I couldn’t sleep well; I was saturated with worry and had over my shoulders the full responsibility of raising my two children on my own.
Just as a light at the end of the tunnel, “The Secret” was introduced to me by a friend just at the time when I needed it the most. I had read about Universal Laws, but nothing had helped me until I watched “The Secret”. I watched it once and I was hooked. But I had so many questions and nobody to ask… where was I supposed to start? By focusing on financial matters or visualize a great home, a wonderful job, an active life or vibrant health? What should I do first?
I get this question quite often in regard to The Law of Attraction and The Power of Intention… Where do I start? Where do I set my intentions first? How do I determine my priorities when everything is so important?
The good news is that you can do it all at once. Let me explain…
If we go back to the premise that a happy life is a balanced life… do you really think that we are supposed to set our intentions on one area of our lives at a time? Nothing will ever manifest if we do it this way because in order to feel happy and live a fulfilled life we require a variety of things. Yes, all of them in balance. Makes sense?
So let’s get organized and plan, which is what we really need to do. Make a list of all areas of your life that you want to improve, and even those that you think they don’t need improvement because they can get better. Believe me, they will. Here is an example of my list:
- Health / Fitness
- Money / Wealth
- Family / Relationships
- Career / Job / Business
- Personal Development
- Relaxation / Fun
Now jot down right next to each, one intention related to that subject. For the sake of this example, let’s say that I have set my intention to get fit and improve my health for which I must get a membership at a fitness club.
The problem now is that I don’t have the extra cash to join a club. So this is why I need to set an intention in #2. My intention is that I will get enough cash to join the club.
Since I have not slept well because of stress, my family has suffered as I’ve been grouchy. Also, I don’t feel like returning calls to my friends. This is where intention #3 comes in. As a result of going to a health club to exercise, I’ll release my stress, sleep better, be more patient and my relationships will improve.
Do you see how each intention complements the next helping us create a balanced life as we go? This is why it’s vital to have many intentions going at the same time. Even if your relationships haven’t suffered yet, you will notice an improvement in them as your other intentions get manifested.
Once you set your intentions, take a few minutes each day to visualize each one of them. And then all of them together; create a story in your mind. Use your imagination. Add feeling to your visualization as if the scene in your mind had already happened. Carry these intentions in your mind everywhere you go and be attentive to your surroundings. Look for synchronicities. Opportunities to act on certain things will pop up seemingly out of nowhere. It’s the Universe at large acting upon your behalf. It’s the genie you saw in “The Secret”. Take inspired action if you feel like it. Do not judge or try to see how this or that wouldn’t work. Just do it and have faith. Before you know it, your intentions will start materializing in front of your eyes!
But don’t stop there. To achieve a balanced life you must have intentions in every aspect of your life at all times. If you already got your ideal job, now set an intention to get a promotion as soon as possible. Or if you got the home of your dreams, set an intention to get that plasma TV you so much want… you get the idea. Keep on moving and the Universe will back you up.

Law of Attraction - The Secret Law of Attraction
Sunday, May 27th, 2007The Secret Law of Attraction has taken the world by storm
We’ve all seen the vast amount of exposure the movie the Secret has received - appearing on Oprah, Larry King and Ellen Degeneres to name but a few. The Secret Law of Attraction bandwagon seems to show no signs of slowing up. The Secret 2 will no doubt showcase again this Secret Law of Attraction amidst much euphoria.
When reviewing the amazing levels of publicity the Secret has received I found an article that shows the appearances of Rhonda Byrne, Michael Beckwith, James Arthur Ray, Lisa Nichols and Jack Canfield on Oprah - it’s pretty much the most comprehensive library of videos of all the exposure I have seen.
Trader Mike’s Post on The Secret Law of Attraction
(I must be crazy talking about Oprah to my 90% male readership…) I think the movie The Secret is about to hit its tipping point. On Thursday Oprah Winfrey’s show will be all about that movie — or more specifically the topic of the movie which is the law of attraction. That law basically states that “whatever you focus on you get more of.” I saw the movie back in August after seeing a mention on another trader’s blog. What was most interesting about it is that it was nothing new. The movie crystallized concepts that I’ve read and heard about over the years.
One thing that really stood out to me was that focusing on a negative doesn’t work. A good example of that is when you see a football team with a big lead go into the dreaded “prevent defense“. Instead of continuing to play to win they start playing not to lose. We all know what typically happens next — the team blows the game. I’ve had similar experiences with trading. I always seem to get into trouble when I try to trade not to lose (scared money…). That causes me to adjust my stops just enough so that they get hit right before the stock reverses. Even though I realized that fact long before watching The Secret (hence my long-standing rule of not touching stops within an hour of setting them) I never thought of it in terms of attracting those stop outs because of my mindset.
Anyway, there are tons of applications of the law of attraction in all facets of life. I highly recommend watching the movie and/or the Oprah show on Thursday. Here’s some stuff to give you a better idea of what to expect:

What The Secret Knockers Don’t Want You To Know
Wednesday, March 21st, 2007It’s no secret that The Secret has its knockers; there’s people out there who simply do not believe in the Law of Attraction. Did you know that many of the most prominent ‘Law of Attraction Bashers’ (we’ll call them) have their own secret to hide?
Whilst surfing around on a few forums and blogs I came across an exciting blog that explains why rival marketing gurus are challenging the teachings of The Secret and doubting the Law of Attraction.
The Secret Doubters’ Mentality
“If I can’t ride the success of the secret by teaching the secret- I’ll ride the wave of the secret by saying it doesn’t exist!”
Check out this exciting post and let the knockers be exposed:
What Self Help Gurus Who Challenge The Secret Don’t Want You to Know
Persuasion and marketing experts Dave Lakhani, Kevin Hogan and Blair Warren are hosting a teleseminar titled “The Secret The Truth Behind the Lie”
These gentlemen are arguing that the law of attraction teachings are harmful and just pop psychology. And they are out to put a stop to these sales people!
“All the experts agree that The Secret is one of the best orchestrated marketing plans organized and implemented in recent history. But that should come as no surprise either, most of the experts in the movie are expert marketers. It is doubtful if this movie would have achieved the level of success it did without the support of marketers and without employing The Ziegarnik effect in their efforts to seduce the public.” - Dave Lakhani
I agree that “The Secret” is one of the most brilliantly done marketing campaigns in years. However Rhonda Byrne and her team aren’t the only clever marketers out there.
Blair Warren, Kevin Hogan, and Dave Lakhani are no dummies- THEY ARE MARKETING AND PERSUASION EXPERTS! They really don’t see the secret as a problem (they probably don’t really care) they see it as an opportunity to market themselves as well!
If they agreed with the law of attraction nobody would care!
Imagine the headlines now “three persuasion experts all agree with “the secret” they say go watch it and get rich” Or “Three persuasion experts expose the lie of the secret live this Wednesday”
One is a little more enticing.
Kevin Hogan Example
Let’s take Kevin Hogan for example- nice guy I have some of his products. He is a business owner in the self help/ success/ persuasion psychology field. Kevin is someone who teaches people to be successful. Gee whiz, looks like Kevin even has a product or two on manifestation: Manifesting the Millionaire Mind.
Now on day Kevin turned on the TV or went online or to borders book store and heard that this “DVD” called the secret is sweeping the nation, and its at the top of all the best seller lists. Millions of people are either learning about the secret of the law of attraction for the first time or they are people who had an idea of positive thinking who now have rekindled their fire for creating the life they deserve.
Now this being Kevin’s market- the self help/ success market- he has a couple of options.
Options
A. He can learn to teach the law of attraction too even though he hasn’t for the many years he has been in business.
B. He can do nothing and watch a bunch of “law of attractioners” he calls em, go to learn from his competition.
C. He can tell everyone that “The Secret” and the law of attraction is bogus- even dangerous, and you should learn from him how to be successful instead.
Well, teaching the law of attraction is out of the question for Kevin. He’s a persuasion expert he should stay with what he knows the market is saturated with law of attraction coaches and philosophers as it is. And naturally he can’t do B.; ignoring this 250 million pound elephant in the corner, while all the other self help gurus get all the kudos.
Kevin is a genius though so he chooses C.
Why is Kevin a genius?
It is more profitable for him and his persuasion chums to discredit the law of attraction whether it is true or not!
1. “Holy cow” Kevin says “The self help/ success market just quadrupled in size- there will be a ton of new customers for me to market to”. There will be people who can’t master “The Secret” and are still looking for teachers to help them manifest their way to success. There will be people who are passionate about success and want to learn from as many teachers and philosophers as possible. There will be of course and a bit in my opinion unfortunately “self help junkies” who go from book to book seminar to seminar still trying to find “The Secret”
2. I’ll never get on Larry King to talk about my products by saying I agree with “The Secret” but I might be able to by saying “The Secret” and the law of attraction is a big fat lie” If I can’t ride the success of the secret by teaching the secret- I’ll ride the wave of the secret by saying it doesn’t exist!”
Marketing is like a chess game every move, as simple as it may seem, has a hidden agenda.
Kevin Hogan, Dave Lakhani, and Blair Warren are smarter than they look. The success of “The Secret” is the greatest thing that happened to the self help industry. No matter which side you are on. These skilled psychologists know Mastery of any personal development program, law of attraction teachings or not, take time and discipline.
Furthermore they know there will be many people who give up on the process of the law of attraction and don’t take the time it takes to see results. And after those people throw in the towel Kevin Hogan, Dave Lakhani and Blair Warren will be strategically positioning their bishops and knights to sell their products. Checkmate.
