There is a great deal of revelation about the law of attraction in this era of time. I, for one, do adhere to the belief that you can control your destiny through your thoughts and emotions. What you focus on daily is what is manifested in your life. In essence, what you wish for will be your reality.

When pondering on 'The law of Attraction' and how it's principals can be explained, I find myself thinking about children's stories. In fairy tales and kid's movies the hero/heroine is taught that their wishes can come true if they meet certain criteria.

The character is taught to close their eyes and wish very hard for the thing or experience they desire. Then the child is told to have faith, that they must believe for their wish to come true. Lo and behold the desired thing is realized.

This does not always happen as first try. The character is told that they may not be believing wholeheartedly or perhaps they are not wishing hard enough. The fable generally ends with the hero/heroine realizing the fulfillment of their wish after they have learned to desire and believe with all their might.

These children's stories which convey that wishes do come true through a strong desire coupled with a deep faith in its reality are actually teaching children the concept of the law of attraction. The child is learning first to make a wish (have strong desires), then to believe in its conception (faith) and close their eyes and imagine (experiencing it's culmination).

Most of your old spiritual books teach that we should become like children. Somehow in moving from childhood into adulthood we become disbelievers. We lose that ability to trust in the strength of our wishes and the faith in the universe to carry them out. No longer do we believe that wishes do come true or that we have control over our destiny.

I love children's movies. I sooner go to a kid's show then an adult movie. We are the substance of what we feed upon. Today's media is steeped in negativity, hopelessness and violence. If you focus your thoughts on negativism and pessimism daily the law of attraction can only mirror the same elements into your life.

The law of attraction exists whether we believe it or not. What you think and feel in your mind and heart determines what you experience in your life. If you find yourself in a pool of despair, experiencing one trauma after another it is time to readjust your thoughts. You are in the drivers seat. You can change your experiences. Become like a child and wish for the stars.

Wish for good things with strength of desire. Have unbreakable faith that through the law of attraction you will attain the things wished for. Close your eyes and imagine the results of your desire. Follow these steps and your wishes will come true.
