Living the Law of Attraction in a Negative World

You had every intention of having an incredible day.  The alarm went off fifteen minutes early, just like you planned, so that you could have a few minutes to visualize your perfect day.  You took a nice hot shower and you even told the water how grateful you were that you had water.  It's going to be a great Law of Attraction, happy, happy, joy, joy day.

You heard the quiet drone of the television in your room and the loud remarks coming from your spouse profusely telling the television off.  No mind.  Your day is going to be just like you envisioned.  Your spouse, on the other hand, will just have the day he creates. You decided you won't be a part of the negative vibe. 

You went downstairs and made breakfast.  You put out three bowls with cereal on the table and three bottles of water.  You shouted up the stairs, "Breakfast, come and get it!"  Your child came barreling down the stairs and plopped in front of her bowl.  "Mom, I wanted the cereal with chocolate chunks in it," she blurted.  You told her you will pick some up when this cereal is gone, still knowing that you are going to have a great day; but it feels like it started a little weird. 

How do you get by living with the negative thoughts and feelings that can fly around the house…not to mention work, especially when you are doing your best to create a wonderful world for you and your family?  (And without their help.)  Sure, they're not going to believe their luck when all the money rolls in and life is perfect. Are they going to thank you for all your positive thoughts and feelings that go toward making it happen?   If they'd be a little more positive and stop complaining maybe things would get easier.    Sheeze!

Now you feel your day is shot.  You had woken up in such a wonderful space and already the cynical remarks of the outside world have created a quiver of negative arrows aimed straight for you.

How do you apply the Law of Attraction in a world that is full of cynics and negative remarks?  How can you get beyond the feelings of the negative when it feels like everyone around is negative.  Even when the remarks are not intentional, they can still rub your nerves raw.

Let's start with this:  You have the power to dismiss all of the negative around you.  I know it sounds easier said than done but you can.  The people around you, even if you have told them over and over again, are creating their days with cynical or negative remarks.  They only become a part of your world when you let them.  When you react, whether inwardly or outwardly, you are attracting this situation to yourself again and again. 

How do you keep from reacting to the negative?  By allowing.  Let the people around you create their negative cloud and just observe it.  Don't take part in it.  If you are directly asked a negative question, take that time to answer in a way that is not going to upset you, but will keep you allowing the other person to create what they must.   

If you are egged into an argument, you really do have the choice not to participate.  It is only an argument when two people participate.  There is no argument when there is only one speaking.  Yes, the other person may feel like he 'won' the fight or that he is 'right' because you haven't responded, but here is the trick: When you are being egged on, just observe, don't participate.  There is a big difference between giving someone the 'silent treatment' and just being observant.  The 'silent treatment' usually means you are madder than a hornet and are punishing the other person.  Being observant is not giving in to the part of you that wants to be right and just letting the wave of anger pass beyond you.  Then maybe later when there is no 'egging' the subject of the conversation can be calmly revisited.

Let's face it.  We are responsible for every day that we have.  Our todays create our tomorrows.  Our pasts made up our todays. Some part of you created the negative that stopped in for the day and you can change that by allowing and living with ease around all of the negative that you may have attracted.  When you allow, and live in ease, you will find that the negative will lessen and there will be more positive coming into your life. 

Try it.  Next time you have a day that seems to be steered by others' negative remarks just allow and 'let go' of the feeling that builds up inside of you. Continue your day with ease through the Law of Attraction, and your days will become negative free.
