Becoming Magnetic
By Kenrick Cleveland | November 29, 2007
A very spiritual woman I know shared the following with me: she said, ‘I used to have unfortunate beliefs about myself and I received back from external influences unfortunate results. When I decided to take control and raise my resonance, to be the change I wanted to become, to allow abundance and love come flow through me, absolutely everything fell into place. I am now living a life of leisure with a beautiful husband and I can draw what I want into my universe at will.’
What does it take to be magnetic? Can we really draw money, love or health simply by telling ourselves we are magnets for what we want?
It’s easier than you think. It simply takes a shift in perception.
Pay attention to what you focus on. Do you automatically expect a depressing day when it rains? Do you make assumptions that you’ll be happy when it’s sunny? What would happen to assume all rainy days are going to be glorious because you can splash through puddles or get indoor activities taken care of.
By putting our focus on good, we draw good to us. Conversely, by focusing on grief, we draw more to grieve. There’s absolutely a place for grief in our lives, I’m not suggesting otherwise, but we need to be mindful that we are not suffering over our own suffering and not continually drawing grief to us.
I overheard a girl in a caf telling her friend, ‘I’m a total freak magnet. I can’t leave my apartment without running into someone either clinically insane or whacked out on drugs or fanatical about some weirdness who wants to have extensive interaction with me.’
Her friend responded, ‘That’s strange. Your neighborhood is really nice. I can’t imagine there would be too many freaks around there.’
She responded, ‘I can’t figure it out. The freaks find me wherever I am. They just seem to be waiting for me to leave the apartment so they can scream in my face or get me to join their cult.’
What an awful thing for this girl, I thought to myself, to believe that she is a magnet for freaks, that no matter where she goes, she’s giong to draw to her the lowest common denominator.
This is really how attraction works. What you think about yourself, you are. What you believe about the world, is your reality. What you speak, is your truth.
I almost wanted to say to her, ‘You know, you could just as easily not be a ‘freak magnet’ by simply telling yourself that you’re another kind of magnet.’ Then I realized that, sadly, my intrusion would only further confirm her self-diagnosis and she’d misinterpret my advice as more freakery, as in, ‘Yeah, this guy came up to me in the caf and told me to be another kind of magnet. He looked pretty normal, but what a freak!’
Whatever your beliefs, I implore you, take this freak’s advice and adjust your expectations of what the world is going to bring you and start requesting only good and not the lowest common denominator.
