Did You Say "Try"?


"Do, or do not. There is no try." - Yoda, Jedi Master

For those of you who may have heard that the movie "The Secret" and the universal Law of Attraction can give us the life of our dreams, but still hold much skepticism about it, I have only one thing to say:

Do it. Honestly. Every single day for one month. At least. Try three months, or a year. And make sur you really pay close attention to everything that happens. This is key.

Would a scientist be credible if he "tested" something only once?
What about if he didn't pay close attention to the results?
Or if he just thought about it and said "naw, that wouldn't work" or "that's just a coincidence".
Would you really trust those "results"?
That's what many are doing right now in regards to the law of attraction.

In this world, we can only truly understand something by living it fully.

And to really make a difference, we must look at things long-term.
And that means making a commitment, which most don't like.

The forces which govern your life tend to accumulate momentum.
For your life situation to change, you need to focus on the new reality you desire until the momentum that your life has been gathering so far has changed towards what you want.

It is like a large ball or bolder rolling away in one direction (think of the huge boulder chasing Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Arc for a powerful visual). If you want to improve or transform your situation, you are pretty much slowing down that huge ball and sending it into another direction, the one you want to go. That takes focus.

Either a lot of focus and effort and a little time.
Or,
A little focus and effort and a lot of time.

Either way, it will not happen overnight. Or if it does, it will take practice to maintain it. In other words, if you "try" to attract something into your life once, and it doesn't happen right away, that is not "proof" that the law of attraction doesn't work. It just means that you are not willing to make the necessary long-term changes to your thinking.

In all scientific research, long-term studies are always more valuable than short-term ones. Because some results will not appear until much later... and can completely change conclusions.

All lasting life transformations are caused by permanent changes to deep, foundational beliefs that thereby affect all subsequent thoughts and actions.

That means ... no more flimsy"trying". In whatever you do... do it. Or not.
