Do you ever wonder why sometimes your goal setting works and other times it seems like you're working with the Law of Repulsion instead of the Law of Attraction? I've got some ideas on that from my own studies and experiences that I hope will help you achieve your dreams more often.
In May 2007, I read The Secret about the Law of Attraction.
By then I had been aware of the power of the Law of Attraction for about thirty-five years.
What Rhonda Bryne and most of her contributors failed to make perfectly clear is that there is more to working with the Law of Attraction than just thinking pretty thoughts.
You need to take action.
You need to show life you're sincere.
A Dream 40 Years in the Making Comes True In October, my life long dream of being a freelance writer of restaurant reviews came true.
Admittedly it's been a minor goal but constant ever since I wrote my first restaurant reviews for The Talon as a cadet at the USAF Academy.
Step-by-Step I Built Momentum toward My Dream While some dreams manifest sooner than others, virtually all dreams require activity to give the Universe (your higher power, The Force, Holy Spirit or God - whatever you call the universal energy) the opportunity bring your dream into this dimension of reality.
To give you an idea of how this has worked for me, here are some of the activities that helped to draw or attract to me the opportunity to be a freelance restaurant reviewer: o For decades I've critiqued the food and service I get at restaurants when dining out even though my comments would only go to the manager.
o As a small business consultant when I was on the road working with a restaurant client, I developed a restaurant critique form that I would use to rate the food and the service.
o I've been active in a writers' group for a couple of years to improve my writing skills.
o I've been writing my blog for almost a year now.
Although the style of writing for a blog is too personal and casual for an online newspaper's articles, the skills posting articles and uploading pictures made using their software a breeze.
o I had to respond to their job notice on Monster.

Visualization Adds to the Attractive Powers of Action -- It Doesn't Replace Action I've had so many dreams come true using the Law of Attraction, even before I knew what I was doing.
Whatever you wholeheartedly desire, provided it doesn't interfere with someone else's dream, you will manifest.
There's more to it than what I have room for here right now.
But the main point I have is that to reach your goals, you must take action.
While visualization is wonderful, action trumps it.
Will You Make the Effort to Manifest Your Dreams? Thus, when you're setting goals and dreaming your dreams, remember, your dreams come if you work with the Law of Attraction rather than relying on positive thinking only.
Visualize your goal by all means.
Sense, see, hear what it's like as you enjoy having achieved it.
Then help out.
Do something.
One small action every day taken towards reaching your goal will draw opportunities you never expected.
Stay flexible, though, in case it doesn't come exactly as you wanted.
And be persistent and patient.
You may have things to learn before you are ready to live in that dream fulfilled.
You can make your dreams come true if...
you put your own effort into manifesting them.
