If you've been paying attention to the personal development industry in the past few years then you must have heard about the law of attraction. Thanks to the movie 'The Secret' the law of attraction has become a household name. The truth is that this law has been known by most success teachers for years. However, it is only now that it has become common knowledge. In this article I will explain what the law of attraction really is and how it is truly the science of getting rich.

So what is the law of attraction?

You will find many definitions about this law, however, the simple and basic explanation is that this law is all about harmony. I call it the 'harmony effect'. The harmony effect simply states that you draw to you whatever you are in harmony with and that is exactly what the law of attraction does. It draws to you everything that is in harmony with you.

So what this means is that a rich person is in harmony with money, a poor person is in harmony with poverty, a sick person is in harmony with sickness, a healthy person is in harmony with health and so on and so forth. By understanding this simple explanation you realize that you do not necessarily attract what is like you or unlike you. You simply attract what is in harmony with you. This is the secret to understanding the law of attraction.

How many times have you met people who had something you wanted and you wondered why they had it and you didn't. You might think that you deserve more than they do but what you have to understand is that to get what you want you need to get in harmony with it. Those people you see who have the things you want are simply in harmony with them. The law works perfectly and it's universal in its application.

How to use the law of attraction effectively:

1 - Know what you want

2 - Focus predominantly on what you want (not what you dislike or are unhappy about)

3 - Take action

As you can see the law of attraction is a simple law that can easily be misunderstood. By reading this article you should now know that the law of attraction is all about harmony. Nothing more nothing less. Your job is to know what you want, focus on it and allow the law to bring you people, places and circumstances that will eventually lead you in the direction of what you want.
