The Law of Attraction And The Paradox

The Law of Attraction And The Paradox
(by Susan James)

For the sake of this writing, here's the definition as used:
(Paradox:) contrary to accepted opinion. Incongruent in agreement;
inharmonious.

Anyone that studies Universal Law/Consciousness finds The Study
of The Law of Attraction, and how it works, very exciting and
appealing. It gives us promise. However, contained within the
promise, is the application of the study. Not everyone who reads
LOA concepts, applies it.

This writing is for those of us who do, sincerely in our hearts study
and apply what we understand currently of The Law of Attraction,
and still haven't manifested the lives that we really want and desire.

Here's how it really IS:
Phase I: If we study and apply the understandings of The Law of
Attraction, we can create whatever we want.
Phase II: Not Exactly

Most all writings and teachings of the LOA say within the writings
that:

1. There is no slate or chalkboard of our lives written on it. We can
create whatever we desire.
2. We can have what we want, if we believe that we can have what we
want.
3. As we believe, the LOA attracts to us what we want.
4. Change our beliefs, we change our lives, per the LOA in action.
( THIS is where *the study* stops and creates The Gap.)

THEN we are given many ways and means to help us change our
beliefs.

Changing our beliefs simply means we expand beyond what we
currently believe, so that we allow for more of what we want to flow
to us.

I've built the first part of my writing livelihood on just those basics.
And they DO work, and they DO work, well.  Many of us, can and do
stop at this point and do very well for ourselves...........BUT...What if
we seem to want MORE?

The Paradox is that WE are in control, when we really are not.. The
study of the LOA, says, we can change and control our lives by
studying and applying the LOA. Yes. We can. But  ONLY up to a
point. There in lies The Paradox.

Here's the problem. (I use the word problem as quandary)
Up to this point, most of us have been applying the understandings
of the study of the LOA, with our rational mind. Meaning our human-
ness is involved all along the way. Our humaneness convinces us
that if we study and apply the LOA to our lives, then we can create
whatever we want. Our humanness tells us that we are doing well,
and expanding our spiritual selves as we study and apply the LOA.
We  get an A+ for doing and being this, in our lives.

Why does our humaneness tell us this? Because we attract through
the examples and the stories of seeing it work in the lives of others.
Therefore it has to, by law, work for us as well. Right? And, as we
apply it sincerely to our own lives we see for ourselves many times
how it does in fact and truth work.

However, we keep missing something. We cant seem to really get
what we really, really want. Why is that?

The Eastern Religion will tell us, its Because that studying the LOA,
makes us look out for only number 1, and that's not what we should
be doing. Therefore, that's why we really don't get what we want. The
Eastern Religion, says, we must suffer. Buddha had to suffer to be
enlightened. Therefore we too must suffer.

Western Mainstream religions will try to convince us that the study
of universal law, metaphysics is not what God wants, and falls into
the cult category. We are sinners. Therefore, of course we cant get
what we really want. Its not of God.

Gee, what's a little soul to do?
What are we to do and be, if we sincerely in our hearts and minds
want to expand our lives from both the spiritual and physical level? Is
IT even, really, possible?

YES IT IS.
