LAW OF ATTRACTION: When You Stop Chasing the Wrong Things in Life, You Give the Right Things a Chance to Catch You

Thank you Marc & Angel for writing down these wonderful insights!

These are the kinds of issues we address in psychotherapy. This is EXACTLY what a good therapist helps you do: Gain awareness of your habitual behaviors, of your habitual thoughts, and of your habitual feelings in order to bring these issues to the forefront of your awareness, so you can change what you DO NOT WANT to create in your life.

And so it is!

30 Things to Stop Doing to Yourself

"When you stop chasing the wrong things you give
the right things a chance to catch you."

As Maria Robinson once said, “Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.” Nothing could be closer to the truth. But before you can begin this process of transformation you have to stop doing the things that have been holding you back.

Here are some ideas to get you started:

1. Stop spending time with the wrong people. – Life is too short to spend time with people who suck the happiness out of you. If someone wants you in their life, they’ll make room for you. You shouldn’t have to fight for a spot. Never, ever insist yourself to someone who continuously overlooks your worth. And remember, it’s not the people that stand by your side when you’re at your best, but the ones who stand beside you when you’re at your worst that are your true friends.

2. Stop running from your problems. – Face them head on. No, it won’t be easy. There is no person in the world capable of flawlessly handling every punch thrown at them. We aren’t supposed to be able to instantly solve problems. That’s not how we’re made. In fact, we’re made to get upset, sad, hurt, stumble and fall. Because that’s the whole purpose of living – to face problems, learn, adapt, and solve them over the course of time. This is what ultimately molds us into the person we become.

3. Stop lying to yourself. – You can lie to anyone else in the world, but you can’t lie to yourself. Our lives improve only when we take chances, and the first and most difficult chance we can take is to be honest with ourselves. Read The Road Less Traveled.

4. Stop putting your own needs on the back burner. – The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too. Yes, help others; but help yourself too. If there was ever a moment to follow your passion and do something that matters to you, that moment is now.

5. Stop trying to be someone you’re not. – One of the greatest challenges in life is being yourself in a world that’s trying to make you like everyone else. Someone will always be prettier, someone will always be smarter, someone will always be younger, but they will never be you. Don’t change so people will like you. Be yourself and the right people will love the real you.

6. Stop trying to hold onto the past. – You can’t start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading your last one.

7. Stop being scared to make a mistake. – Doing something and getting it wrong is at least ten times more productive than doing nothing. Every success has a trail of failures behind it, and every failure is leading towards success. You end up regretting the things you did NOT do far more than the things you did.

8. Stop berating yourself for old mistakes. – We may love the wrong person and cry about the wrong things, but no matter how things go wrong, one thing is for sure, mistakes help us find the person and things that are right for us. We all make mistakes, have struggles, and even regret things in our past. But you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here NOW with the power to shape your day and your future. Every single thing that has ever happened in your life is preparing you for a moment that is yet to come.

9. Stop trying to buy happiness. – Many of the things we desire are expensive. But the truth is, the things that really satisfy us are totally free – love, laughter and working on our passions.

10. Stop exclusively looking to others for happiness. – If you’re not happy with who you are on the inside, you won’t be happy in a long-term relationship with anyone else either. You have to create stability in your own life first before you can share it with someone else. Read Stumbling on Happiness.

11. Stop being idle. – Don’t think too much or you’ll create a problem that wasn’t even there in the first place. Evaluate situations and take decisive action. You cannot change what you refuse to confront. Making progress involves risk. Period! You can’t make it to second base with your foot on first.

12. Stop thinking you’re not ready. – Nobody ever feels 100% ready when an opportunity arises. Because most great opportunities in life force us to grow beyond our comfort zones, which means we won’t feel totally comfortable at first.

13. Stop getting involved in relationships for the wrong reasons. – Relationships must be chosen wisely. It’s better to be alone than to be in bad company. There’s no need to rush. If something is meant to be, it will happen – in the right time, with the right person, and for the best reason. Fall in love when you’re ready, not when you’re lonely.

14. Stop rejecting new relationships just because old ones didn’t work. – In life you’ll realize that there is a purpose for everyone you meet. Some will test you, some will use you and some will teach you. But most importantly, some will bring out the best in you.

15. Stop trying to compete against everyone else. – Don’t worry about what others doing better than you. Concentrate on beating your own records every day. Success is a battle between YOU and YOURSELF only.

16. Stop being jealous of others. – Jealousy is the art of counting someone else’s blessings instead of your own. Ask yourself this: “What’s something I have that everyone wants?”

17. Stop complaining and feeling sorry for yourself. – Life’s curveballs are thrown for a reason – to shift your path in a direction that is meant for you. You may not see or understand everything the moment it happens, and it may be tough. But reflect back on those negative curveballs thrown at you in the past. You’ll often see that eventually they led you to a better place, person, state of mind, or situation. So smile! Let everyone know that today you are a lot stronger than you were yesterday, and you will be

18. Stop holding grudges. – Don’t live your life with hate in your heart. You will end up hurting yourself more than the people you hate. Forgiveness is not saying, “What you did to me is okay.” It is saying, “I’m not going to let what you did to me ruin my happiness forever.” Forgiveness is the answer… let go, find peace, liberate yourself! And remember, forgiveness is not just for other people, it’s for you too. If you must, forgive yourself, move on and try to do better next time.

19. Stop letting others bring you down to their level. – Refuse to lower your standards to accommodate those who refuse to raise theirs.

20. Stop wasting time and energy explaining yourself to others. – Your friends don’t need it and your enemies won’t believe it anyway. Just do what you know in your heart is right.

21. Stop doing the same things over and over without taking a break. – The time to take a deep breath is when you don’t have time for it. If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re getting. Sometimes you need to distance yourself to see things clearly.

22. Stop overlooking the beauty of small moments. – Enjoy the little things, because one day you may look back and discover they were the big things. The best portion of your life will be the small, nameless moments you spend smiling with someone who matters to you.

23. Stop trying to make things perfect. – The real world doesn’t reward perfectionists, it rewards people who get things done. Read Getting Things Done.

24. Stop following the path of least resistance. – Life is not easy, especially when you plan on achieving something worthwhile. Don’t take the easy way out. Do something extraordinary.

25. Stop acting like everything is fine if it isn’t. – It’s okay to fall apart for a little while. You don’t always have to pretend to be strong, and there is no need to constantly prove that everything is going well. You shouldn’t be concerned with what other people are thinking either – cry if you need to – it’s healthy to shed your tears. The sooner you do, the sooner you will be able to smile again.

26. Stop blaming others for your troubles. – The extent to which you can achieve your dreams depends on the extent to which you take responsibility for your life. When you blame others for what you’re going through, you deny responsibility – you give others power over that part of your life.

27. Stop trying to be everything to everyone. – Doing so is impossible, and trying will only burn you out. But making one person smile CAN change the world. Maybe not the whole world, but their world. So narrow your focus.

28. Stop worrying so much. – Worry will not strip tomorrow of its burdens, it will strip today of its joy. One way to check if something is worth mulling over is to ask yourself this question: “Will this matter in one year’s time? Three years? Five years?” If not, then it’s not worth worrying about.

29. Stop focusing on what you don’t want to happen. – This is the "Law of Attraction" working ALL THE TIME: Focus on what you do want to happen. Positive thinking is at the forefront of every great success story. If you awake every morning with the thought that something wonderful will happen in your life today, and you pay close attention, you’ll often find that you’re right.

30. Stop being ungrateful. – No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs. Instead of thinking about what you’re missing, try thinking about what you have that everyone else is missing.

Law of Attraction Knows Not the Outcome, It Only Manifests Whatever Your Focus & Wherever You Place Your Energy-Even If You DON'T Want It In Your Life

"When you accept and fully understand your true potential, you will know you have unlimited powers, and some of you use them without realising it. An example would be self-healing, although some do not understand by focusing upon the illness you need to tell yourself that you are healed. By affirming you are ill and telling your body you are the disease only perpetuates the condition, and this is because the Law of Attraction does not question the reason behind it."

Aaaahhhh, the beauty and inspiration of SaLuSa and Mike!

Damn, did I need this download of information from them, and to celebrate their return (as Mike's computer is now fixed), please enjoy the next three updates exclusively by SaLuSa and Mike --yahooey!

I THANK YOU BOTH.

And so it is.

(emphasis added)

We would remind you of how powerful you are as individuals, and how you have more influence on what conditions are around you than you might think. That is why we often remind you of the need to be focused upon all that is positive. In a time when there are many dire predictions going around, you can offset them by concentrating on all that is positive such as the many beneficial changes that are about to manifest. Many of you are beginning to realise where you place your energy is exactly where it will work to bring about your desires. The problem lies with those who focus on the negative not realising they are empowering it. It may sound odd to some people, but that is how the Law of Attraction works. It knows not what the outcome will be, but powers whatever it is you have in mind.

When you accept and fully understand your true potential, you will know you have unlimited powers, and some of you use them without realising it. An example would be self-healing, although some do not understand by focusing upon the illness, you need to tell yourself you are healed. By affirming you are ill and telling your body you are the disease only perpetuates the condition, and this is because the Law of Attraction does not question the reason behind it.

When you consider the larger picture and your coming Ascension, then clearly your focus should be firmly placed in that area. Bypass the negative thoughts being expressed by those who are concerned about their future, and have little or no knowledge of what is occurring at this most important time. You can in fact help offset the negative thoughts being put around, and where possible help those who are worried by expressing your confidence in the future. The media is gearing up for the anniversary of 9/11 and STILL DOES NOT FEEL FREE to discuss the obvious evidence that it was an inside job. They will carry on supporting the “official” verdict that is patently false and contrived to protect the real criminals, who will answer for their crimes in the Courts of Justice.

Knowing justice will always take place, you need have no concern about the outcome of any crimes against Humanity. By doing so will only continue to energise the same fears again, that is clearly to be avoided. We do in fact have too much concern over such issues, as there is so much good news circulating about the wonderful future that awaits you. Events are near to occurring that will immediately attract people’s attention away from the present conditions. They will inject great hope and anticipation of the better times that are about to be brought about. Lightworkers are very important in this respect as they can help others to understand the goal that lies ahead, bringing answers to the problems that have overwhelmed them. It is therefore important that you spread your knowledge far and wide as it will uplift those who hitherto had little or no knowledge about it. You are in exceptional times that have shown the worst of the dark ones and the best of the Light energies that are ever increasing and bringing calmness to you. They will be growing more powerful by the day, and 11.11.11 will bring about a great leap forward that many will actually experience. It will be the commencement of a new period that will bring more changes in your levels of consciousness. It will continue and put you well on the path to galactic consciousness. After all, you are great Beings of Light that are re-claiming your rightful place in the Cosmos. Our task is to see that you do so, and we are about to open up the final pathway to Ascension and beyond.

Life largely goes on as before, but people are being inspired to envision the future, which will make the transition much easier. Also many souls that have now grown to maturity are ready to share their advanced knowledge with you. No longer will the dark ones be able to suppress ideas and inventions that lift up your quality of life. Knowledge was always meant to be shared for the betterment of everyone, and beyond your cycle of duality that is how it is. In the energies of Love and Light, it is the most natural thing to do, and helps everyone to share the benefits. Greed and selfishness are peculiar to the lower dimensions where self is considered before all else. However, that is already changing and many kind and loving souls simply wait the opportunity to serve others.

Many of you will have no doubt noted we have shown our craft often in large numbers where they can be seen by hundreds of people... Sometimes it is just for your viewing, but we still have our own responsibilities to keep your atmosphere clean, and monitor activities on Earth. We are particularly interested in the physical changes and can calculate the outcome quite accurately. That means we can take actions that hold back the more likely repercussions, yet at the same time allow Mother Earth the scope to make the needed changes. These are certainly interesting times to be on Earth, and as you often say, the best is yet to come. Set aside your concerns about how the great upliftment will be achieved, as it is well planned and we oversee every aspect of it.

Everything happening at this time is in some way connected with the ultimate goal to get you safely to Ascension. Once we can openly speak with you, the full detail will be given to you in a worldwide broadcast: your Formal Announcements. We have nothing to hide or hold back from you, and indeed we dearly wish to share this grand adventure with you all. You are One and will come together more quickly when the truth is revealed. The divisions between you have been deliberately placed there by the Illuminati and their followers, and maintained to exert complete control over you. That will all change quite rapidly and the barriers are already beginning to break down. Those who are enlightened can see you are all souls experiencing together, and that colour and religion, or different histories and cultures are of no consequence. You were meant to enjoy the differences as expressions of your many experiences.

I am SaLuSa from Sirius, and am pleased to speak with you about matters that are important to your understanding and future. We of the Galactic Federation of Light send our love to you all.

Thank you SaLuSa.
