RE: The #1 Misconception About Law of Attraction
Great post. This ideology is rampant in society and has very negative effects.
The idea that simply thinking about something will make it happen is ludicrous. The law of attraction requires action to create the cycle of cause an effect. It is a very common misconception and people often don't even realize that action was taken to set events in motion, assuming reality is willed into existence.
Just like chaos is a teacher, unpleasant emotions can lead to a better understanding of one's self and one's relationship to others and the world.
Hi @anarcoaahabb
This post doesn’t refute the existence of law of attraction. It just clarifies a misconception that students of loa teachings hold.
It’s extremely common for people to say loa is bullshit because action is required. Precisely the opposite. The teachings do not state that action isn’t required. It teaches INSPIRED action. It teaches HOW to take PROPER action and not set yourself back by working against yourself. It’s mindset FIRST, THEN action. Not just blind, frivolous action. I will probably write a post on this, too.
I'm not refuting the existence either. Sorry I wasn't very clear about that. I think it exists, but I just don't think that simply thinking bad thoughs will make bad things happen or thinking good thoughts will make good things happen. This seems to be the inclination with a lot of people.
I'm not familiar with loa teachings but it sounds interesting and, from the way you describe it, very much in line with common sense. Think before you act. I can definitely get behind that.
I will look into loa and I look forward to possibly reading your future post on the subject.
Oh, good! It's probably my most written about topic! See you around, new friend.
