It's that time again! It's the new year and we can all rejoice because we made it through another one. It is not only that I suppose, it is the fact that a new year awaits. A new year with a new president occupying the White House and a new year where we can accomplish that which we have yet to accomplish. For some it is sadness, because it was not the year that they had expected, they lost someone or something, they didn't show themselves proud, or they simply did not accomplish their resolutions. Well take all that which makes you feel down and come join the club where we are out to create everything we want and make it real. This is the year you guys and not because I say so but naturally because this is the year that you know about the Law of attraction and are going to start practicing it for good.
New Year's resolutions can feel mighty challenging to fulfill sometimes. After all, they usually are lofty goals that a person puts on themselves so that they can feel better. Well, along with all the action involved with how you would usually execute a New Year's resolution try to put some spiritual interaction. Catch yourself when you hear yourself saying that you can't do this or that it is impossible or that it is something you can put off to next year. That is not the way of it. Remind yourself that it is only as easy as you can make it. Believe in yourself and really and truly believe yourself. Tell yourself that you already have what you want and with ease.
Which comes into the next portion of getting all your goals manifested into reality. Visualizing is a huge key to it. The important part of visualizing is that you need to know that it is already so. When you see yourself with what you have wanted for so long be grateful and know that this is the life. Feel fulfilled in the visualization and know that it was effortless and very easy despite what you might have thought before. See all the perks of having what you want and feel it. Try to push aside all those little voices that tell you in your head that this is only a dream. Believe me, it is not. What you create in your mind will be so. If you know in your head and heart that all is well and you already have what you want then that will be so. Try to keep this state of mind even when you are not visualizing. It will come faster than you know.
Practicing the Law of attraction takes some focus and attention at first, but once you get used to it you will find it the most beneficial and effortless tool that you have ever learned to use. This New Year you can not only fulfill all your New Year's resolutions but you can also fulfill some additional ones on top of it. This is your year, now give it a run for its money.
