Hi, I’m Joe Vitale of MrFire.com.  I'm in the movie The Secret and the author of the The Attractor Factor and many other books, but I wanted to talk to you today about The Law of Attraction. I wanted to explain a few concepts that some people are confused about.

I know a lot of people have seen The Secret.  A lot of people don't like The Secret.  A lot of people are absolutely in love with The Secret and still more, amazingly enough, have never even heard about The Secret. So I wanted to talk about The Secret; maybe some things about the making of The Secret; my involvement in it. But I wanted to be sure to help you gain an understanding of The Law of Attraction and how to implement it in your own life.

First, let me give you a definition.  The Law of Attraction is the idea that everything in your life is being attracted to you. It doesn't matter what it is, good, bad or indifferent.  You've attracted it to you. Some people like that idea; many people hate it. The part they like is when they attract the good things.  The part they don't like is when they attract the stuff they don't particularly want.

My view on this, is that everything in your life, no exceptions, everything, you've attracted.  But you've done it on an unconscious level.  Now, you can make it conscious when you think about it a little bit.  For example (we don't want this to happen) but if there was a car accident, and you're wondering how did I attract that?  

If you think back to the day before, maybe a few days before you might have been thinking about a car accident.  You might have been fearing a car accident. There might have been some things about deservingness.  There might have been some things about self-image.  There might have even been some things about you wanted some attention.  Some people can't stand their lives to be particularly great.  

There was a therapist a long time ago who said “how good can you stand it?”  “How good can you stay in your life?” It seems that we hit a threshold at some point, and will make things happen, that if we thought about it some more, we wouldn't particularly want the car accident, the health problem, relationship problem, the financial problems.  You name it; fill in the blank. But we unconsciously attracted it. We might have done it for a variety of reasons, but we still did it.  That's my whole point.

The Law of Attraction is a law, it's not just a principal.  This is something like the law of gravity that's out there in the world.  A lot of people will then say “well the law gravity means I drop something it's going to hit the floor, but if I try to attract something I may not get it”.  And I'm saying you get everything in your life because of this law.  

The confusing part is you're not always aware of the unconscious thoughts that are kicking in, that are the programming, the wiring, that's in your mind.  It’s all about a process of Awakening. It’s the idea that if you’re attracting things in your life that you don’t particularly want, it's because of these unconscious beliefs.  And so you can become conscious of them, and you can clear them, and when you do you accelerate the process that is The Law of Attraction.  You accelerate the process of getting more of what you want.
