Law of Attraction or Law of Hard Work?

There is so much confusion around the law of attraction today and my personal opinion is this is because there are a whole slew of marketers our there using this concept to build a business around it for the sole purpose of making boatloads of cash and they are just muddying the water.

Now, there’s nothing wrong at all with making money and using ideas and concepts to do it.  But what strikes me particularly odd about using this strategy with the Law of Attraction is if you are following the premise and spirit of this law, you would NOT be focusing on trying to use it to make money.

In fact, you would probably be doing the opposite which is helping people understand the law of attraction and providing value related to the law of attraction in order to attract people to you.

Which brings to the forefront the other side of the coin when it comes to the law of attraction – the Law of Reciprocity.

If your use of the Law of Attraction is from the perspective of selfishness and greed, you will manifest these characteristics either in yourself or in what you attract to you.

I found an enjoyable little article by Jeffrey Gitomer in the Eagle Tribune earlier this month about the Law of Attraction which had an interesting comment from a reader named Marlowe regarding James Allen’s classic titled ‘As A Man Thinketh’ and the misguided interpretation of the Law of Attraction.
