Manifesting Your Dreams - The Main Mistake Most People Make When Applying the Law of Attraction

When I was very young, maybe about 5 or 6, I would recite my wish list every night before drifting off to sleep. I wanted the latest Barbie dolls and as many of the outfits that I could remember from the catalogue. I don't know the events leading up to why I should have thought this would be effective - a memory from a past life perhaps? Because I really don't think this idea came from my parents. I just had this strong idea in my mind that all you had to do was ask, and your deepest wishes would be granted.
I would wake up during the night, and in the shadowy light, I would imagine I saw a pile of presents that were mysteriously delivered during the night. And I would worry about how to explain these mysterious gifts to my financially struggling parents. But as dawn broke into daylight and I saw that my stash of presents was just made up of ordinary household things, and I would inevitably feel disappointed. I felt that I hadn't tried hard enough, so I would do it all again the following bedtime. And the following, and the following, for many weeks.
I can laugh about my naiveté now, decades later. But I still can't decide whether I was betrayed by the universe, by my fairy godmother or whoever it was that promised me of an assured outcome. I suspect something was lost in the translation by my six year old mind.
Something similar happens to many people when tapping into the Law Of Attraction to fulfill a goal or dream. They apply great mind power - the greatest they can muster. But are then totally passive, and as you may suspect, they are repeatedly disappointed that what they are seeking continues to elude them.
Remember the saying; as above, so below? The Law Of Attraction will only work when you do. It will mirror your efforts and most often meet you half way. Another saying that reflects the truth is; Heaven helps those who help themselves. So next time you have a deep wish you want fulfilled, don't just hand it over to your fairy godmother to do all the work. Be prepared to get off the sofa and turn off the television, and start making an action plan for you to follow.
