Why Many Success Programs Fail - Debunking the Law of Attraction

Over the last few years there has been lots of discussion and books about the Law of Attraction.  The most notable has been the phenomenon known as the Secret.  Hours of television time has been devoted to it.

What is the Law of Attraction?  The definition of the Law of Attraction says that you attract into your life whatever you think about.  Your dominant thought will find a way to manifest.

So think about money and it shows up.  Same with super models, yachts, Lamborghini's etc.  I guess then if you believe in this, if something shows up in your life, you thought about it.  So you must have thought about that sickness, layoff or broken down car as well.

The reality is that the Law of Attraction is just not true.  In order to be true, a scientific law must always apply under the same conditions.  Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation is a good example of a law which always applies.  In short everyone on earth that throws a tennis ball in the air will have it return to earth.  If the Law of Attraction were truly a law, everyone who wished to be rich would be.  Since they are not, there is no "law" of attraction.  That is enough science for one ebook.  Don't waste anymore time worrying about the Law of Attraction and hoping it will deliver for you, it won't.  The Law of Attraction/Secret crowd are marketing people selling the American public a pipe dream.  People want to believe "thoughts are things"  Unfortunately they are not.

There is nothing wrong with thinking about the things you want, but it is the starting point not the ending point.  You must be clear that desired outcomes are not plans and thoughts are not actions.

If thinking were totally effective we would all be millionaires with gorgeous dream spouses, multiple homes, yachts and private jets.  Since we are all not, you can conclude that there must be more to achieving your dreams than thinking.  This is very true, there is.

It is in a word Action.

Not that action guarantees your success, but a lack of action is virtually a guarantee of failure.  Or put another way, circumstances usually change when you do.  That change is to become action oriented and to learn to take action toward your desired outcomes.  the ebook Desired Outcomes Implementation Technology is the link you need to learn to take effective action.
