<em><strong>The Law of Attraction And The Paradox<br />
(by Susan James)</strong></em></p>
<p>For the sake of this writing, here’s the definition as used:<br />
(<em><strong>Paradox</strong></em>) contrary to accepted opinion. Incongruent in<br />
agreement; inharmonious.</p>
<p>Anyone that studies <strong><em>Universal Law/Consciousness</em></strong> finds<br />
The Study of The Law of Attraction, and how it works,<br />
very exciting and appealing. It gives us promise.</p>
<p>However, contained within the promise, is the<br />
<em>application</em> of the study. Not everyone who <em>reads</em><br />
LOA concepts, applies it.</p>
<p>This writing is for those of us who do, sincerely in our<br />
hearts study and apply what we understand currently of<br />
<em><strong>The Law of Attraction</strong></em>, and still haven’t manifested the<br />
lives that we really want and desire.</p>
<p>Here’s how it really IS:<br />
<strong>Phase I:</strong> If we study and apply the understandings of The<br />
Law of Attraction, we can create whatever we want.<br />
<strong>Phase II:</strong> Not Exactly</p>
<p>Most all writings and teachings of the LOA say within the<br />
writings that:</p>
<p><em><strong>1</strong>. There is no slate or chalkboard of our lives written on<br />
it.<strong> We can create whatever we desire.<br />
2.</strong> We can have what we want, if we believe that we can<br />
have what we want.<br />
<strong>3.</strong> As we believe, the LOA attracts to us what we want.<br />
<strong>4. </strong>Change our beliefs, we change our lives, per the LOA<br />
in action.<br />
( THIS is where </em><strong>the study </strong><em>stops and creates The Gap.)</em></p>
<p>THEN we are given many ways and means to help us<br />
change our beliefs.</p>
<p>Changing our beliefs simply means we expand beyond<br />
what we currently believe, so that we allow for more of<br />
what we want to flow to us.</p>
<p>I’ve built the first part of my writing livelihood on just<br />
those basics.</p>
<p>And they DO work, and they DO work, well. Many of us,<br />
can and do stop at this point and do very well for<br />
ourselves&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..BUT&#8230;What if we seem to want <strong>MORE?</strong></p>
<p><em><strong>The Paradox is that WE are in control, when we really are<br />
not.. </strong></em>The study of the LOA, says, we can change and<br />
control our lives by studying and applying the LOA. Yes.<br />
We can. But ONLY up to a point. There in lies The<br />
Paradox.</p>
<p>Here’s the problem. (I use the word problem as<br />
<em>quandary</em>)</p>
<p>Up to this point, most of us have been applying the<br />
understandings of the study of the LOA, with our rational<br />
mind. Meaning our humanness is involved all along the<br />
way. Our humaneness convinces us that if we study and<br />
apply the LOA to our lives, then we can create whatever<br />
we want. Our humanness tells us that we are doing well,<br />
and expanding our spiritual selves as we study and apply<br />
the LOA. We get an A+ for doing and being this, in our<br />
lives.</p>
<p>Why does our humaneness tell us this? Because we attract<br />
through the examples and the stories of seeing it work in<br />
the lives of others. Therefore it has to, by law, work for us<br />
as well. Right? And, as we apply it sincerely to our own<br />
lives we see for ourselves many times how it does in fact<br />
and truth work.</p>
<p>However, we keep <em>missing something</em>. We cant seem to<br />
really get what we really, really want. Why is that?</p>
<p>The Eastern Religion will tell us, its Because that studying<br />
the LOA, makes us look out for only number 1, and that’s<br />
not what we <em>should</em> be doing. Therefore, that’s why we<br />
really don’t get what we want. The Eastern Religion, says,<br />
<em>we must suffer.</em> Buddha had to suffer to be enlightened.<br />
Therefore we too must suffer.</p>
<p>Western Mainstream religions will try to convince us that<br />
the study of universal law, metaphysics is not what God<br />
wants, and falls into the cult category. We are sinners.<br />
Therefore, of course we cant get what we really want. Its<br />
not of God.</p>
<p>Gee, what’s a little soul to do?</p>
<p>What are we to do and be, if we sincerely in our hearts<br />
and minds want to expand our lives from both the<br />
spiritual and physical level? Is IT even, really, possible?</p>
<p><strong>YES IT IS.</strong></p>
