Law of Attraction - Historical Figures

The Secret tells us, the law of attraction and historical figures go hand in hand. Did the Law of Attraction actually play a role in the lives of history's greatest people?

In a word...yes. They did use it. Did they necessarily know they were using it? Maybe not. But the important thing is, they used it. In Wallace Wattles' timeless classic "The Science of Getting Rich" he illustrated this truth perfectly.

"Those that do things in a certain way, whether accidentally or on purpose, will infallibly get rich."

He was using it in the context of acquiring wealth, but you can translate that into any endeavor. The point is that you attract what you think about. You believe that your thoughts actually have an impact on your life.

One example of the law of attraction and historical figures was the story of Napoleon. I'm referring to the French dictator, not Napoleon Dynamite, by the way. While he wasn't the best guy in Europe at the time, he was powerful, nevertheless. He was once quoted as saying, "I see only the objective. The obstacle must give way."

This can be compared to having a clear mental vision of what you want. Napoleon understood this amazing creative power, but he used it for the wrong reasons. If this isn't a great example of the law of attraction historical figures, I don't know what would be.

Another great example of the law of attraction and historical figures is the life of Henry Ford. He was one of the most influential people in American history. Was he any smarter or better than the average person? Probably not. However, he did understand this great truth.

He was once quoted as saying, "Whether you think you can or you think you can't...you're right." This is another perfect quote of the power of thought and belief.

In developing the V8 engine, his engineers told him it could not be done. But Ford had the image in his mind. He knew that it must be able to be done, or he wouldn't have the desire in the first place.

He told the engineers to go away and do it. They went away and struggled for six months. They then came back to Ford and again reiterated that it could not be done. He also, again told them to go away and do it.

This process happened a few more times until finally they did it.

Ford knew that with persistence and belief, they could accomplish anything. Another instance of the law of attraction and historical figures side by side.

Finally, some of the greatest examples of the law of attraction and historical figures comes straight from the Bible. In Job 3:25 we learn a great truth. "For what I fear comes upon me, and what I dread befalls me."

This proves that any idea that you dwell upon and give emotion to will happen. Regardless of whether it is good or bad.

Proverbs 23:7 says, "For as a man thinks in his heart, so is he." This is an often quoted verse, but truer words were never spoken.

The law of attraction and historical figures have given us some great lessons to think about. The next time you have a negative thought about the bills or something else...stop and think. Do you really want to experience this again?

One sure way to do that is to keep thinking about it.
