 I received a question about my thoughts on the law of attraction and I was talking in that class about how I don't believe that law of attraction works to attract money or financial success. The way that many people seem to believe, because if it did, well, everyone or many people who are using law of attraction for financial success will be financially successful. But if, you know, that we might hear of the ones that are like the outliers, but trust me, I've been around the entrepreneurial industry for 14 years, so I've known more people than you probably do about using law of attraction to attract money. And I can tell you, it's way more hyped up as an idea for doing that than it seems to work. However, I can speak from personal experience that law of attraction seems to work well, or if it does work, it seems to work best in my experience for relationship attraction. By relationship, I just don't, I just say people attraction. I did use it to attract my, my wife, to me, it seems to me and also, you know, clients and not now, not the number of clients. But the quality of clients, the type of people, the energy and value set, the heart, the energy alignment is what I really believe it does help. It does help. I also think the law of attraction works well to, I call it visualizing the process of your work. There's an old, old blog post about that you can Google, you know, George Cal visualization and you'll read my old blog post about using law of attraction for, for, for joyful productivity because I've been doing that for years and it's really one of the foundations of you that I don't talk enough about law of attraction. But yeah, that's one of the foundations. But I want to talk today about, you know, this person asked me if I had any specific exercise for attracting the type of people into our lives. And I want to credit a particular book. Some people at this moment would say, Oh, think and grow rich, you know, but I never found I had a hard time going. I was never able to read thinking growage I always found it to be like too dense and too weird. It just didn't wasn't pleasing to me to read so I don't use that one, but instead this one is not too too dense for me to read. I have two foundations that I have for books. And this is the size of the book and it's literally pocket size and it's it's this long, and you don't even have to buy it because this entire book is online. Many people have uploaded online as PDFs it's called. It works by R H J the little the famous little red book that makes your dreams come true, which of course is hype. Okay. But the process that's taught in here, which I may completely bastardize because I actually read several books and I'll tell you another one that that seemed to be helpful in my early years of business. But anyway, what I remember now I now I got it like read, I could probably read the book while I'm talking to you right now because it's that short. What I remember from the book. And if once someone reads it please tell me George you completely use a different method, but whether it's from this book or not. The method that I used was simple, and this may have actually been from a poem hill ironically. I wrote down the type of person I was wanting to attract in the paragraph. And I, I read it out loud. When they say morning day night, it's not literally some kind of like magic incantation you read it at 9am noon, 6pm. There's some kind of like stars will line as a lot of the law of attraction stuff it feels to me that way they're, they're using their, they're lying to about some kind of sort of sorcery like just some Taoist master you got put this in this order that it's it's it's all it's all here. It's basically what it does is it's trying to transform this. Maybe transform this, you start to notice things that you hadn't paid attention to as much in the past, and you'll go more in that direction it's really also at the end of the day it's it's your own actions that creates your reality not your somehow vibrational put checks in the mail is ridiculous right. The secret and stuff like that it's, it's, you change this, and then you start your perception starts to change, and then you make different decisions, and you have different energy, which then attracts different people, obviously, because if you, if you if you notice certain things of you, for example, if you notice, say you want to track this certain type of client, who is, you know, this is why when I teach classes about client attraction I asked people to write down. Not it not it not a surprise you write down particularly both the inner characteristics of the client, and also some of the outer characteristics but but I think the law of attraction for relationships works best with inner characteristics, the inner character is at the energy level, because how that soul manifested in this life may be whatever physical features is based on their own life path and their own life needs. So you can't you can't be like I mean I want, I want I want to spouse or client that looks exactly like this and maybe you could try it but I don't. I think that's much harder. You're asking the universe to bend over backwards, instead of saying here the inner characteristics I would like to attract and universe is great. I've got, I've got lots of types of people, short tall, you know, all all different colors and all different nationalities that are that are matching this inner description, and you will start to notice that as you start to, you know, the universe says you will start to notice that as you just go about things and when you when you when you use these kinds of affirmation and exercise was really simple. You write down a paragraph of the inner characteristics of the kind of person you want to attract again it could be romance or to be business friendship, and, and then you, you read it out loud. You know, three times a day for as long as you can have patients to do so. I think for my wife I read it out loud I know patients for for two weeks and then I ran into patients and then eventually she appeared and like wait a second. That's remarkable. That's amazing. And, and so, you know, same thing with my client I feel like I'm doing a lot of traction my clients all the time just because I kind of already feel, you know, when I create content I imagine them in my mind and heart. So that's already a lot of attraction technique already imagining my mind and heart so I'm like always showing up with that energy signature. It works, obviously it works for me. So, again, there's no incantation or some magic spell it's basically you read it as often when they say three times a day why three times a day. It's just because they want you to figure people most people eat three meals a day and you know the day is you might think of a day as having three periods so it just makes sense just time management wise but there's there's no magic for three time today just read it as often as possible. Read it every hour if you possibly can right it's the idea is to change this change your perception about what you deserve. And what kind of person to start noticing. And then when you notice that kind of person, you tend to, you know, you know, you tend to have some fantasy like oh the universe sent this person to me and whether or not that's true. You basically have greater confidence. That's the whole point I'm being secular about all this but I think there's a scientific explanation for it just like there is a woo explanation for it. You're just being more confident you're being more open and confident to that type of person that type of energy, that type of value set and heart. And so naturally you're going to go and message that person talk to that person, learn from that kind of person and then you go more into the kinds of events that they go to or whatever you see I mean so like you and then you also tend to ignore things that you maybe had paid attention to before. Because you realize that's not the kind of person you're trying to draw so what I think law of attraction really is it's just focusing the mind. You're not seeing your perception, and your confidence and your motivation, and therefore your actions, and your actions are what build your reality, not your vibrational thoughts. Okay, not not what I've seen from coaching. At this point, thousands of entrepreneurs, not the vibrational thoughts it's people's actions, but the actions taken intelligently. The actions and the words and the beingness, the presence of them in front of a person or in front of an audience that obviously makes a huge difference so whether the person has business or not. And so it's how they use their time, but all of it is affected by your mind in your heart, which is really what I think the strength of the law of attraction is. So I hope this is helpful and thanks for listening. And thank you Heather for being here and you wanted to share something about this as well go ahead. This reminds me of your your reticular activating system which is that part of your brain that when you you decide that you want to notice something it noted you notice it so like for example if you buy like a red sports car. And once you buy it and you're driving it you see red sports cars everywhere I'm sure. Like, is this are there suddenly a lot more red sports cars. No, there's always been the same number of red sports cars you just your brain is trying to help you by not showing you every stimulation otherwise you would go mad. So it's like your brain and your awareness still turns out like 99% of perception. And it's so yes thank you for for bringing that up. Appreciate it. And Gregory you had something as well. It's just something that I learned in spiritual psychology one of the, one of the things we would do something called an ideal scene, and we would we would create we would create an ideal scene really envisioning using present tense using using verbs using qualifying adverbs or adjectives depending upon to to to energize whatever it was and speak it speak it out write it out in present time as a way of and and and basically say a prayer of sorts in collaboration with spirit. And, and this is very to me very important, and goes back to the giraffe, since, since that I mentioned earlier. So, which is, since the very best that any of us can imagine doesn't match what could be imagined by God, or the universe. However, one relates to spirituality or, you know, having so much as potential. Yeah, to to. So one of the caveats that we always include when we create an ideal scene in spiritual psychology is at the bottom of the page of the spokes of this ideal scene. We always write this or something even better for the highest good of all concerned. Brilliant. So, and part of the beauty of that for me and it's similar in some ways to I will be done or other, you know, it's, it's like, here's my prayer and I recognize with humility that I don't know enough about how the universe works to know exactly what's best. So I'm going to turn it over and release any attachment and just and trust that itself is a practice. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Brilliant. I'm so glad you mentioned this because I was, I forgot to say that what the other early book in my entrepreneurial journey that had a deep impact on me was Mark Allen. I had a book called the type Z guide to success the type Z guide to success because I am, you know, I was early on I was very type A, because I was born in type A, but then I had to I had to learn how to. That was good. Yeah, I borrowed that from somebody else, but, but, but I was like, type Z guide to success that's the opposite of what I had thought. And that also that deeply influenced your productivity, but that book essentially is teaching the process that you were just talking about writing that kind of prayer affirmation and really, you know, for the for that or something for the highest good. So I'm so grateful you mentioned it. One last thing I'll say is, I, I have a blog post about how really is how I use a lot of attraction on a daily basis, which is to use visualization for process goals, process visualization so you can go ahead and look this up you could just Google George Cal visualization, you will come across this blog post so. But thank you. Thank you for all of you for sharing and thank you all for watching.
