7 Traps to Avoid with Law of Attraction

I am always amazed at the incredible tools, resources, books, conference calls, and tele-classes that are out there to help us move forward towards what we want to achieve. This past week was no different, great information came through my simple tool - the telephone. The particular call I listened to explained why some people are not getting the results they want with the Law of Attraction. I found the information valuable and trust you will too.

Here are the 7 traps we can get into:
1. Unclear Vision.
Some folks just do not have a clear vision. If you feel like you have to work really hard on the chosen vision, something is wrong. Your vision must be emotionally compelling and feel like it is pulling you along and that you are riding a wave. The FEELING needs to feel easy. If you are on the right track there is a magical quality about your vision.
So how does your vision feel to you? Spend time discovering what you really love to do.

2. Emotional Blockages
Too many folks are not clearing out emotional blockages when they come up. Without clearing these blocks you will self-sabotage. Deal immediately with negative emotions as they come up. Get relief first and you will feel like you are off and running. Then get resolution. There are a number of techniques and strategies out there to help you do that.

3. Not Completely Understanding Law of Attraction

Many folks may have listened to erroneous comments or have not paid close attention to the details of the Law of Attraction. Some don't take action. You need to take action as the law works through you. Some people think they only need to sit and think. You need to give the Universe a channel to get the goods to you and get course corrections. Napoleon Hill, Wallace Wattles and Charles Haanel all give great wisdom on this point.

Analogy: If you are not in your sailboat when the winds come, you will not be able to take the course corrections. The feedback you get is important and you must pay close attention to it.

When the steps are taken the doubt gets removed. You will stay in fear till you do take action. You will not know how you will achieve your goal but once the first step is taken the next step will appear. But without the first step, the how cannot appear.

See the results. Stay focused on results and the Universe will provide the results. The How to will be shown to you. If you try to figure it out you won't see the course corrections.

It is important to ask for what you are capable of. Remember you are so much more capable than you think. Do not ask the infinite intelligence for things that are completely menial. Do what you can and leave the harder stuff to the Universe.

The process adjusts to our mentality. Lots can happen very quickly.
The temptation that is dangerous is to let our self be controlled by what we think is possible.

4. Premature Over Planning in the Visualization
At the beginning it is important to not get submerged into too many details of the vision, otherwise visualizing can feel like work and lose its fun component. Some analytical minds get so caught up in the details that they start vibrating a feeling of overwhelm and inadequacy. You want to avoid feeling overwhelmed.

Keep a 35,000-foot over view. Do not get stuck in the mentality that you must do it all yourself. We need to stay out of our way. You do that by staying focused on the result. Take the beginning action and see what unfolds.

5. Ignoring the Bliss Principal
Follow your inspiration, your joy and you will attract everything you need.
If it feels like a struggle you are on the wrong track. It is crucial to FEEL GOOD and to FEEL ALIVE.

There is a temptation to think that we are doing it wrong. You will encounter obstacles but that does not mean you are doing it wrong.
Beating the drum of "What am I doing wrong? What am I doing wrong?" becomes what is wrong.

6. Ignoring the Expansive Principal
Being an expansive person means you more than fill your current position. If you are in a dysfunctional environment and more than fill your current position, know that it is quite possible that you will be disliked. If you re in a positive environment people will appreciate you and encourage you.
An expansive person has high energy, is positive, and is someone who is always advancing. This is a very powerful yet hidden principal. You must become the person you see yourself as and put your self in that position.

Am I affecting those around me positively?

7. Focusing too much on getting what you want.

Focusing too hard and too much on getting what you want, creates doubt and a feeling of lack. You must learn to create value for others and then the more we give, the more we get. Too much focus on getting means you have lost the vision. The giving to others must be part of the vision. We need to see how we can give in relationships, in business, and in love.

These are the seven traps that people can fall into when working with the Law of Attraction, according to Dr. Symeon Rodger.

Be constantly grateful. Be thanksgiving. That means you remain constantly upbeat. Giving thanks will make you feel better. It is important to note that this is not just an intellectual concept but rather something you must feel. You need to give thanks frequently so that it becomes a default mentality. Dr. Symeon suggests for starters giving thanks 3 x a day. Then increase this to 5 x a day. Then try and stay grateful for 30 minutes at a time. All ancient traditions state that there is no better faster way to connect with Source than to give thanks.

Focus on the immediate vision - your day at hand and 6 months out. It must inspire you. If it seems life fun you are then on the right track. Inspiration is an absolute principal of life... beyond us.

Joy is the fuel of the Law of Attraction.
Take action yet do not trespass into the How to.
Ask for guidance and source will give it to you.
Always aim your action at being of service to others; adding value.
Always keep in mind how you feel moment to moment.
Happiness is often talked about in superficial ways and in circumstances around us. Joy goes much further.

Practice these steps. Take action. Be persistent. Be patient and watch the magic happen.
