Chapter 4 – The Law of Attraction Handbook

Release Resistance

Having framed clearly what our desires are, it is now time to delegate these to the divine. It is time to get out of the way and let source create. The non-physical is many times more powerful in its ability to create than our mere earthly efforts, therefore it is important that we allow source to go about its work unfettered from earthly interference.

From this point it is important to focus on maintaining a positive tone or feeling in our life. As our feelings are our compass as to how we are creating, a positive tone will indicate that we are creating in alignment with our desires. The issue here is to manage our feelings so happiness and joy are the prevalent feelings.

Doubt and fear are the enemies of positive creation as they indicate a negative path in our manifestation. In today’s world we too often focus on the negative. Anger, aggression and intimidation are commonly used tools “to get what I want”, but this display of the earthly will, pales into insignificance in comparison to the forces available thorough the non-physical and the LOA.

As we grow, who we are is shaped by the experiences we have and what we are taught by those around us. This frame of reaction to circumstances surrounding us, and our reaction to situations in our life, is what makes us unique individuals. But often these reactions have their basis in thoughts of scarcity and lack, which is the overarching concept in most of our daily dealings in the modern world. These attitudes are enshrined in our learnt responses.

These attitudes or thoughts might include:

“Good things never happen to me!”
“We never have enough money.”
“I never have new cars.”
“All I seem to get is bills.”
“I always struggle to make ends meet.”
“ I’m always sick.”
“I have to fight for what’s mine.”


All these thoughts have the base in the past experiences of our lives. They are historical and seems natural to think what has happened in the past will only be repeated in the future. With the nature of the Law of Attraction being, “like is attracted to like”, then it easy to see how this pattern is repeated in our lives and virtually becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. As these thoughts are at odds with the non-physical natural state of abundance, they create negative feelings within us. As we hold to these negative feelings, they become a veritable stumbling block, holding us away from the creation of our desires.

So it becomes important to be aware of our feelings as they are our compass, which indicates to us how we are creating. A good question to ask is

“How am I creating?”

If we took a moment to review our feelings and we found fear, frustration and trepidation, this would indicate thoughts of lack and scarcity and a need to move our thoughts from what we haven’t got to what we want. This is our work.



Ways we can ensure we don’t develop negative feelings and resistance:

Detach from the outcome. Holding fixed thoughts for a particular outcome and how it will come about in a particular way, will hold us from our desires. By dictating every detail we are not placing our trust in the divine to create our desires. Instead we are placing earthly constraints on our desired manifestation. It needs to be a complete delegation of the desire to source, as we cannot know the path or resources that the divine can muster to create our desire. Perfect faith and un-wavering expectation are key factors in the manifestation of our desires.

I have found that keeping score is also detrimental to receiving your desires. One of the areas of my life that I have applied the LOA is in my sales career. I have often found that when I am talking to a client, who I felt was going to buy and I mentally moved forward to what this sale will do to my results for the day, week or year, it invariably ends up by me not completing the sale for some inexplicable reason. Something comes out of left field, ending what I thought was a sure thing. It seems that I have I interrupted the flow of creation.

I have also found that placing a date or deadline on the required creation is also constraining. It seems to generate fear within me that this may not be completed in time and of course this fear indicates that I am creating negatively.

Ignore the consequences. When we grow and learn we are constantly reminded of the consequences of actions. The thoughts of consequence fill us with feelings of fear. The fear drives us to action and much of what do in society is driven by the spectre of consequence. This is not a call for anarchy but a call to free ourselves from the fear and resistance generated by focussing on the future catastrophes that may follow if we fail to create a desired outcome. The focus needs to be on the feeling of completion in the now. We must have faith our desires will be delivered and thoughts must be of completion. O f having already received. The worry generated by thoughts of dreaded consequences if you do not receive your desires will sure that you will continue to be separated from you desires.

Stay in the moment. The moment of now is the pointy end of creation. It is where our desires are manifest. We need to focus on this point, as this will hold us in good stead to receive our desires. If we maintain focus on how we feel, this grounds us in the moment of now. Conversely our thoughts are often about the past or the future, which take us away from the moment of now. Past thoughts bind us to past outcomes and limit the dynamic of what we can create. Future thoughts are good if they are free flowing and optimistic and free of the earthly constraints of how and when. If they are pessimistic and focussed on the unpleasant things that may unfold, then we are holding ourselves from receiving our desires
By staying in the moment and using the compass of our feelings, can ensure we are creating the positive things we desire. By ensuring we feel good, releasing fear and resistance and moving to more positive feelings we will ensure that we are creating positively.

Be aware of the vibrations around you. It is a vibrational world we live. In deliberately creating with the LOA we are managing our vibrations so that which we desire is attracted to us, as like attracts like.

As we move through our daily life we are exposed to a myriad of vibrations from other people and the things around us. I’m sure you’ve been into a room where there’s a bad vibe, or sporting crowd where the atmosphere is euphoric or experienced the good feeling created by a group of friends having fun. This shows you are picking up on the vibrations of the people around you. But it’s not just the people you meet, it is the whole gamut of human activity around you that can affect the vibrational tone you are experiencing.

It can be:

Gossip. Negative talk about the people around you.

What you see in the news around you.

Arguments or disagreements.

The music you listen to. (This can often be positive although had to give up listening to Metallica, who I really like – no accounting for bad taste! - because of the bad feelings it promoted in me!)

Things that you see. Things of beauty, such as paintings can generate positive feelings.

Advertising is designed to vibrationally influence us. Don’t under-estimate its power.

How often have woken. Feeling good! Head off to work, fired up and ready to go and someone comes along and stuffs it up. A couple of managers that I have worked had a happy knack of tearing strips off the staff in the morning meeting before opening. It sets such a negative tone that impinges on people’s ability to do their very best. They focus on the negative and not the positive.

So it is important to be aware that is being set around you.

There’s a bitch session at work bemoaning how bad things are…. Make an excuse to move on.

Overwhelmed by the negativity in the news…..limit your exposure.

Uncomfortable with never ending gossip……focus on the good aspects of people.

Music makes you feel good in the morning…….make a special play list for your I-pod.

Frustrated with your day…..go for a walk and re-focus.



The more you are aware of your feelings, the easier it will be for you to deliberately create. Learn to take stock during your busy day. What am I feeling? What’s a better thought? By lifting yourself each time it appears that you are negatively creating, your day will steadily improve and you won’t be run over by negative emotion. Life can only get better.

“Theirs is nothing more important than feeling good.”
