Using the Law of Resonance

I heard an interesting story about the law of resonance that I want to share with you. The Law of Resonance is a very similar concept to the law of attraction, but has some distinct differences. The Law of Attraction, as is widely known, is the universal law that determines what you attract into your life based on what you're putting out there.

Where the Law of Attraction is really a personal, individualized situation, the Law of Resonance is relational in nature. The Law of Resonance has to do with the way two or more things are linked. My transcriptionist told me a story that perfectly illustrates this law. She had worked as a paralegal in a law firm several years ago and saw exactly how the Law of Resonance works first hand.

My transcriptionist told me, "I sat next to a woman for three and a half years, we shared a desk. She had worked at the law firm for ten years before I even got there and she was literally the most negative person I had ever met. Worse, she never stopped talking. And so it was a constant barrage of complaints and lies.

"I was sympathetic at first and would give her supportive advice and suggestions to move her out of her negative mindset. Eventually, my own mindset started creeping toward hers and I caught myself complaining and becoming negative as the days, weeks, months, and eventually years wore on."

So think about this. . . you sit next to someone eight or nine hours a day (or live with someone or have some other constant, close relationship with someone) whose energy is dark and pessimistic. Now say you're a relatively happy person and you express yourself positively and, if and when there's a problem, you find a way to constructively deal with it. This really puts you in a tight spot. You can't kick out your mother-in-law, and if you really like your job, but have issues with just one person you work with and are not in charge of hiring and firing, then how can we protect ourselves and our energy from being sapped by a vortex of negativity?

The Law of Resonance says that the relationship between the two individuals, especially over an extended period of time, will either raise up the energy of the negative one, lower the energy of the positive one, or result in a combination of both where they'll meet somewhere in the middle.

Here are a few ideas on what you can do to protect yourself.

First, of course, and this is not always possible, stay around like minded positive people. Seems simple, but we don't always choose who we are around, especially in a work context. Keep in mind at all times, that another person's negativity can sap us of our positive energy if we are not mindful of the dynamic. If their negativity is stronger than your positivity, you will be pulled down.

So what happened between my transcriptionist and the secretary she sat next to? Well, eventually my transcriptionist, manifested herself a new desk on the other side of the office. She went to her office manager and explained the drain and was rewarded with a quiet desk alone near the library and felt a huge weight was removed from her workload.
