The Law of Attraction Can Work In Strange Ways!

Take what just happened to me for example….

Last week I found myself in Lowe’s hardware store shopping for a new garden hose.  I didn’t want a flimsy 5/8 inch hose either, I wanted a 3/4 inch industrial quality hose.  One that I knew would stand the test of time and not burst under the immense water pressure that irrigation water can occasionally deliver.

While I was in the store, my son Logan wanted to look at the kitchen displays that they had set up.  I agreed and we walked through them looking at the newest model dishwashers and refrigerators, counter tops and of course new cabinets.

But none of those things caught my eye.  What did strike me were the faucets.  I don’t know why, but I spent a great deal of time looking at all the fancy sink faucets.   They had a wide assortment of different styles, but  I really liked the one that allows you to extend the main faucet itself out of the fixture and reach up to 15 feet in to your kitchen.  Why you would need that is beyond me, but I certainly wanted to have it.

I have no idea why I spent so much time looking at them, there was nothing wrong with the kitchen faucet I had.  I already had a nice double stainless steel sink, with a perfectly good working faucet.

I wanted to buy one right there on the spot…  and even though I had the money I just couldn’t justify it in my mind.  Especially since the one I was interested in was  a couple hundred dollars.

In all honesty I almost bought one…. I mean what’s the point of attracting wealth if you can’t spend it on what you desire.  But it felt like a waste of money to replace something that worked perfectly.  Probably my blue collar upbringing.

My desire had been broadcast.  The Law of Attraction was already in action, even though I was not aware of it.

Tuesday night, less than a week later, Logan calls for me from the kitchen.  I was busy at the moment, but he assured me it was an emergency.

Logan had been rinsing his plate like a good boy, after and without warning the faucet began spraying water all over the place when it was turned on.  He was pretty upset and worried that he had done something wrong somehow (he is nine years old).

I had to laugh.

Logan was busy telling me how all he did was turn the water on to rinse his plate when it started shooting water across the kitchen.  I assured Logan he was not in any trouble…  and I shook my head and laughed.

There is no doubt in my mind that my desire to purchase a new faucet was what attracted this so-called problem.  The fact that our faucet had been working perfectly was the only thing holding me back from purchasing a new one.

That little problem has been solved.  I now have every reason to purchase a new faucet.

The LAW OF ATTRACTION Can Surprise Even Me In The Strange Ways It Delivers To Us What We Desire Most.

In fact,  while the kids are in school today I am going to the hardware store to shop for a new kitchen faucet.  Just like I wanted to.

Thank you universe.

Thank You.

My 9 Year Old Teaches All of Us A Lesson In The Law of Attraction

As a parent, I have learned a lot about life from my three children.  This Saturday, my nine year old son, Logan, showed me the difference in thinking between children and adults.

It was a HUGE lesson for me… and aside from being a cute story, I offer it up to reveal this hidden truth for you as well!

- – Saturday – -

Logan and I were out running various errands together.  Our last stop took us to Subway for a nice healthy sub sandwich.

It had been a good day and all of our stops had gone smoothly, just as I had envisioned.

I ordered my sandwich first, with every vegetable they had, and a drink.  Logan then ordered a foot long sandwich for the first time, with chips and a drink.  He was pretty hungry that day and excited about the possibility of having some left over for lunch the next day.

When the person making the sandwiches rang up our order, it came to $13.87 which coincidently was the EXACT amount of cash I had left in my wallet.  Sure, I had my debit card with me and several credit cards, so if it had been more it wouldn’t have mattered because I had access to all of my money.   That’s not the point….  It was the fact that the total was the exact amount of money… TO THE PENNY that I had on me.

We both were talking about how neat that was as we carried our meals to our table.  Logan’s little smile was ear to ear.

Then for a moment, he looked sad.  I asked him what was wrong, and he said “Oh Nothing” which is usually code for “ask me again dad”.  So I asked him again if there was anything on his mind.

“I just realized that I wanted a cookie and I know you won’t use one of your cards for a one dollar cookie”

He was correct.  I don’t like to use my debit cards for such a small amount.  Being a business owner I know first hand that the fees the bank charges per sale means that the store would actually loose money on a one dollar item.

The only employee there was now sweeping the floor because he was getting ready to close early.  He had already pulled the chips rack.  We were the only customers in the place.  Maybe he had already shut down the ATM/Credit Card machine?

“But that’s okay.  I am going to think positive and I know that a cookie will show up”

My first thought was how in the world is he going to do that?  I sat there thinking about logical things such as nearby ATM’s or making a larger purchase.  Then I was thinking about how he probably doesn’t even need a sugar laden cookie anyway.

“It’s okay Dad.  I’m using the law of attraction” he said with a grin.

Ha Ha Ha.  I burst out laughing.  Of course this required an explanation on my part because Logan could not see anything funny about this.

Leave it to a child to show an adult what living in the moment is all about.  As an adult, I use the Law of Attraction in big ways on what I think are important things.  Such as keeping myself healthy… and attracting wealth to me.  I’ve used it for a house and for a car…  but never for a cookie.

At that moment in time, Logan wanted a cookie.  Not a thousand dollars…. Not a mansion… not a new car… he wanted a cookie and he had faith that he would get one.

I explained to him why I had laughed and how proud of him I was.

He told me “I learned it all from you Dad… and from reading your book”

Which is true….  I had taught him about the Law of Attraction. In fact, Logan was one of the first people in the world to read the  Manifesting Cards eBook.

The first thing he did was to manifest himself a brand new bicycle that was nearly identical to mine (18 speeds, chrome and purple, etc)…  a bike that I had no idea that was even made….  But that’s a story for another time.

We both went back to eating our sandwiches.  I couldn’t have been happier with my son than at that moment.  We sat there smiling at each other enjoying our food, when suddenly Logan saw the sticker on the wrapper of my sandwich.

It was a SubWay Scrabble game piece that said “More ways to win”.  I peeled it off and it said “Sorry, not an instant winner”  Logan found his an peeled it and it said the same.

For a moment I sat surprised.  I thought wow… that seemed like the perfect way to win a free cookie.  Of course I wasn’t even sure that cookies were offered as a prize.

He didn’t look sad though.  He still had faith that he was going to get a cookie somehow… some way.  The how was not his job.  His job was the absolute unwavering faith…  and he had it.

That’s when I noticed that there were game pieces on our cups also.

He peeled his back and it said “You’ve won a 12 oz fountain drink”.  That’s pretty neat… but not what we were hoping for.

Logan said “You must have the cookie then!” referring to the game piece I had not peeled off of my cup yet.

I peeled the game piece from my cup and sure enough I had won a free cookie.

YES! – Logan and I celebrated.

“I knew it,” Logan said.

A month from now Logan may not remember this incident, but this is a prime example of how the Law of Attraction can be used in the moment.  It’s a great lesson to all of us to live in the moment.

You may not have a million dollars at this moment, but maybe what you really want is a cookie.

PS – It’s a great idea to keep a journal of all the times you have used the law of attraction.  This way you can look back over all your past successes if you ever find your faith wavering.

I hope you enjoyed this story as much as I did.

My Favorite Product For This Week:

It could be said that your successes and failures in life depend upon this one thing.

Your Habits!

As you sit and read this, everything about you has been created by yesterday’s habits.

No, I am not talking about bad habits such as smoking.  I am talking about the habits that make up everyday life.  For example, if you go to bed about the same time each night, then when you go to bed has become a habit.

Truth be told….  You are a collection of habits.

Are you overweight?  Unhealthy?  Low in energy?  Then most likely you have a habit of eating unhealthy foods.  Eating Healthy can be easy and fun….  and even though it is only a small part of your life, it can have drastic changes, such as:  Weight Loss, Increased Energy, quicker healing, less illnesses, younger looking hair and skin, and reversing a whole slew of problems extra weight can cause.

Eating bad foods are not a problem.  You can eat Pizza and ice cream….  it’s the habit of eating poorly that IS the problem.  If you have a habit of eating healthy and only eat pizza on occasion, then pizza will not be a problem.   (Unless of course you decide to go off dairy completely like me)

Habits can work for you… or they can work against you.  Eating healthy is obviously one habit that works for you.

Thinking Positively is another great habit.  I was raised in a household of extremely negative people.  It has taken me many years to develop a positive outlook on life.

I promise you, positive thinking is a habit that will benefit you tremendously.  Not only will your health improve (lower blood pressure and lower risks for many diseases), but you will enjoy life more.

Of course, the Law of Attraction works IN PART on positive thinking as well.

The best positive habit I have is my daily use of the Manifesting Cards.  This habit actively shapes my life each day.  Sure, it only takes a few minutes twice a day, but it keeps my mind focused and it gets me what I want.  Every single time.  Without fail.

I used to be a drinker in my early twenties.  It was a habit that I gave up.  Do I still drink?  On occasion I do.  I gave up the habit, but I don’t tell myself I can’t have a drink.

In fact, if I try to tell myself I can’t have something, I find myself wanting it even more.  So I never forbid anything that I enjoy.  I merely remove the habit of its use if it is not beneficial.

Many people fail because they forbid themselves things…  such as the foods you enjoy.  It’s not the food…  it is the habit of eating that food (if it’s bad for you) that is the problem.

HINT: When you make a habit out of eating healthy, you will find yourself enjoying the flavor of healthy foods.  (Take a look at this Cookbook as an example)

This line of thinking can be applied to any part of your life.  If you want something, set up a habit that brings you closer to having what it is that you want.

If you want to shed fat, set up a habit of cutting a few calories.  Or perhaps create a habit of exercise.  (Nothing is stopping you from doing both.)

A great way to improve you life is to identify your habits and find which habits work for you and which habits work against you.  Once you know, you can adjust your habits by making small changes in your daily life, and in the end you will be rewarded with HUGE positive changes.

Seriously consider getting Manifesting Cards if you have not already.  It will help you create positive habits and help you focus on what is important to you in your life.  Then you can attract what you want in just minutes each day.

My Secret Course includes Manifesting Cards, and a slew of other Law of Attraction books that have the power to transform your life from where you are stuck today — to where you really want to be.

In the end, who you are comes down to how you have been acting and thinking in the past… and that is completely defined by your habits.

So go on and do what you can to create a life filled with healthy, happy and money making habits!

Best Wishes,

John Derrick

PS – Just about anything in excess can become a bad habit.  Even something as harmless as video games can take over your life.  The key is to find a balance.

PPS – When you are having that glass of wine, or drinking that beer, or eating a slice of pizza.  ENJOY YOURSELF.  Don’t feel guilty.  If it’s not a habit, it should be enjoyed to its fullest!
