The 7 laws of attraction

7 laws of attraction: the series
When you read or watch “the secret”, one gets the impression that there is only one law that exists: the law of attraction.
However, reading the book a bit better, one comes to see that the system used is actually far more complex that what they would like us to believe. I guess that from this stems the splitting of the law of attraction in 7 laws of attraction. I do not know who coined this, but in themselves they form the whole system behind the law of attraction.
The Law of Magnetism
You attract what you send out to the universe. Keep your thoughts and emotions happy and you will receive happiness in abundance. So concentrate on what makes you happy.
The Law of Manifestation
What you attract will manifest in your life. This is the key concept. Believe you already have what you want and it will be start manifesting in your life.
The Law of Pure Desire
Make your intent pure. And act in a certain way (as Wallace Wattles would put it). Without this the results will come, but at a much reduced pace. Off course, the first results will give rise to enthusiasm, will will greatly speed up the next results.
The Law of Paradoxical Intent
This is a tricky one. The example that is often given is weight loss: concentrating on weight loss keeps giving you reasons to loose weight. The trick to overcome this is to focus on attaining a perfect figure. Off course, one should be sensible in defining what is a perfect figure for yourself, but you get the idea. Look whether what you intend could not be interpreted in a different way.
The Law of Harmony
When you are in harmony with the universe, nothing can stop you. And inversely, once you start using the law of attraction, you will necessarily start to align yourself with the universe. You will do this to harness the power of ‘the law of magnetism’
The Law of Right Action
Wallace Wattles devoted a whole book to this: 3the science of being great”. The essence is to want others to have as much as you have. Give in order to receive. And you will receive plenty.
The Law of Expanding Influence
As you start to feel the power of the law of attraction, you will be able to use it better and better. You will be able to make it work for you in an ever increasing way. And since you are now geared at doing the right thing, you will perform right and kind action for an increasing number of people.
Well, those were the 7 laws of attraction. I plan to do a series of posts on this subject, detailing every law in a post of itself.

This is a great post. Thanks for the reminder of how things work. I’m looking forward to the future posts! You gave me a real shot in the arm today.
Hi Cory,
Thanks for the nice words,that encourages me to not delay the posting for too long. It will be for after the weekend though.

And thanks for stopping by my site.

Hey Olivier!
This is a very comprehensive post! =)
I love that you enjoyed that chapter I gave you =)
Come on! It doesn’t work on actors only! Come to think about it, we’re all acting aren’t we?
Shakespeare once said,”All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players: They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts”
Oh btw, I think the Law of Right Action is the biggest one on your list!

@Christy: yes, that is a tricky one. I am constantly on the lookout for it, and it still creeps in sometimes.
@Saif: yes, I was only joking off course about the actors. And we all indeed play many roles during the course of one day.
Hi Olivier,
Thanks for sharing so many laws of nature with us.
I haven’t heard of some of them.
You are welcome Raymond
Thanks for visiting The Highway and your valuable comment.
I must say I prefer the Simpler 3 step process I write about , this make sit a little complex for me
Hi Suzie,
thanks for dropping by.
I like this classification as it reminds us of the dynamics and possible pitfalls of the law of attraction.
Laws of Attraction…This is a great post, but the one that stood out the most was “The Law of Paradoxical Intent”. I somehow tried to get my ex girlfriend to understand that law (even before i read this post) when she was trying to lose weight. Unfortunately, she don’t like to obey laws so it didn’t go to well (that’s partially why she’s my ex)…lol
I really believe a lot of these laws - sometimes they get a little too philosophical, but they have a lot of great points. They will always make you a happier person and help you to have good desires instead of selfish ones.
Thanks Johnnie, and yes, the law of paradoxical intent is tricky. and also difficult to avoid. One has to be very careful in phrasing our desires. We might get just what we asked for
thanks …for sharing such a valuable information…it was the first time i came across all the laws in one post…thanks
Good post Olivier and thanks for stopping by my site
I agree with the laws of attraction and always try to live my life aligned with them.
Being a positive and easy-going person helps me a lot, but I know it’s a sad true that there’s a lot of people whose own attitudes and beliefs contribute to sabotage the bests of their intentions.
Hi, thanks for the nice reply.
Indeed aligning with the laws is what one should do. I spend quit some time in that endeavor.
I think it is so amazing that a concept such as this, which has its roots in ancient Hinduism, continues to endure through the ages. It is almost as if its ability to thrive and reach new souls is an indiciation in itself that there is something truly powerful going on here.
Right now I am focusing on the law of right action!
This post was a good refresher. It helps to bring these points up in my mind and points me in the right direction.
This is freaking awesome! I think applying all of these to my life would basically kill me, but start small right?
This laws of nature are really very impressive. I think they will help people to achieve good results. Thanks for sharing with us.
Nice to see you put up such a topic….never seen things that way !
