Game Changer Number TWENTY: 'Like attracts Like'

"Every thought of yours is a real thing - a force." - Prentice Mulford

As human beings we have become fascinated by what science can do for us in real life. Yet in reality, science does not mimic real life. It contradicts. One of the most powerful laws in physics is that opposites attract, but in real life one of the most powerful universal laws of life & health is that:

"Like attracts like."

Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone summed it up as follows:

"When life is easy, you get lucky and everything goes well. When things start going wrong, they start piling up and going more wrong."

It's the universal law of magnetic attraction in action. We send out human vibrations and the universe sends back "like" vibrations. This means we create our own life experiences. We act as our own life engineers, depending on how we feel, think and talk about life. We have the power to magnetically attract into our lives what we feel, think and talk about most of the time - negative or positive.

Our human-thought focus therefore directly affects the quality of our lives. We have the power to attract or repel any of life's multitude of opposites, for instance good or bad, success or failure, pain or pleasure, joy or sadness, pride or shame, win or lose, ease or dis-ease and even life or death. It's our gift of choice and nobody can change the way we think. Only we can.

"The quality of my thoughts is so important during these swims. If you start thinking; "Shit, I'm cold," within a second it'll be digging into you." - Lewis Pugh

The Universal Law of Attraction unfolds as simply as this:

Treat yourself as a first class citizen, and you will attract first-class results.

The great champions of life all choose wisely to travel 'first- class' in life. They know that if they choose to travel in the third-class cabin, they will receive a third-class meal. The universe returns a first-class meal to those who choose to travel first class. It's the magnetic law of attraction in action where success begets success.

"It's funny about life. If you refuse to accept anything but the very best, you will very often get it." - W Somerset Maugham

Mohammed Ali is probably best renowned for using words to positively impress the subconscious mind and affirm success, but how powerful were these words - spoken to Retief Goosen by mind- guru Jos Vanstipout , before his first US Open victory.

"The Black Mamba will strike. Nobody knows who Retief Goosen is. It will be sneak attack .Nobody will see it coming."

The Great Champions all set up to win. They know that we create our own life direction - our life design. Our feelings, our thoughts and especially our chosen words have a powerful vibratory force.
