The Power of Attraction in Your Practice
Anybody who knows me will tell you that I am about as ethereal as a one-ton piece of granite. I am very opened minded about energy and the nonphysical world, but in my daily life I am as anchored to the ground as anyone can be. That said, my wife has been chipping away at me about the “Power of Attraction.” In essence, ask the universe for what you want in a positive way over and over again and it will happen. She challenged me to put it to practice and I have to say, IT WORKS.
Setting goals is great, we have all been taught to do it. Some of us even write them down, but what good does it do to hide your goals? An example: I used to set session number goals for my practice based on what I need to do to survive. I would tell myself: “I need to do 4 sessions a day to pay my bills”. I would end up, month after month just barely doing 4 sessions a day, never getting ahead of that. One day, I decided you use the power of attraction and stated to everyone I knew: I’m going to be so busy by next February that I am going to have to open up a big clinic. By putting it out there in such a positive way, I was also forcing myself to think about how I could accomplish it and inviting opportunities. Turns out, I accomplished it right on time.
So what’s the moral here? If you think about and talk about your goals in a way that is not uplifting and positive, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. By putting your positive energy out there for all to see and react to, you will receive positive energy and opportunities in return. So how will you use this in your practice? I challenge you set a goal based on your dreams, not your needs, and start telling the universe that you are making it happen. Start by writing it down here in the comments, then go out and make that dream come true.
