There are so many reasons the Law of Attraction (LOA) does not work for many people. They make the mistakes of interfering with the allowing process of LOA, don’t get clear on exactly what they desire, have doubts and fears and fail to be grateful for what they have at this time in their lives or they simply do not believe that there is a Universal Law that explains why we get what we get in our lives.
Throughout our lives, we develop certain thought patterns that are formed from our positive and negative life experiences. It’s the negative experiences that give us negative thought patterns that keep us from achieving our potential. These self-limiting beliefs are irrational, self-defeating and given time, become so second nature, they no longer require conscious thought.

LOA Step |
Self-Limiting Belief |
|
Know exactly what you want |
“I don’t know what I want!” |
|
Ask for what you want |
“Why bother? I won’t get it” |
|
Give your desires focus |
“I’m not smart enough to do this!” |
|
Just allow it to happen |
“It can’t be that easy! It will never happen!” |
|
Have faith |
“I doubt this LOA stuff will work!” |
|
Be grateful for what you have now |
“Why should I be grateful for what I have now? It’s not what I really want!” |
Do any of these sound familiar to you? If they do, then you will never get what you want. So, what do you do? You work at changing your thought patterns. It can be done, anyone at any age can do it. All it takes is simply making a conscious effort to pay attention to your thoughts and feelings.
Negative thoughts give off low level vibrations. Negative vibrations will not attract what you want. They will attract more of what you don’t want. Positive thoughts give off high level vibrations and can overcome negative vibrations. Positive, high level vibrations invoke LOA and attract your desires. Self-limiting beliefs are negative vibrations. Now you can understand why self-limiting beliefs will keep you from attracting your desires.
Steps for Changing Your Self-Limiting Thoughts
1. Take a piece of paper. Draw a line down the middle making two columns.
2. In the left-hand column, make a list of your negative, self-limiting beliefs.
3. In the right-hand column, write a believable positive statement that is the opposite of each of your negative beliefs.
4. This is very important! Cross out all the negative, self-limiting beliefs in the left-hand column.
5. Carry this list with you, look at it several times a day and read the positive beliefs to yourself or out loud.
6. You are no longer concerned with the negative beliefs in the left-hand column. You will not read these.
7. Any time a self-limiting, negative thought or feeling enters you mind, gently push it away and then read and say to yourself the positive beliefs you wrote in the right-hand column.
It takes 3 weeks to become comfortable with a new habit and 6 weeks to 3 months for it to become permanent. Change is good, but change is excellent, if it is positive and builds confidence and self-esteem.

“My life sucks!” [I actually had someone tell me this!] |
“My life is what I make it! I can change my thoughts and make my life better!” |
|
“I’m too old to change!” |
“Millions of people older than me make changes to their lives everyday for the better!” |
|
“It’s wrong to be rich! The rich get richer and the poor get poorer!” |
“Having money is good! The rich donate extravagant sums to charitable causes! The poor get poorer, because they are limited by their beliefs!” |
|
“No one will love me!” |
“I love knowing that the love of my life is out there and I am in the process of attracting him/her to me! I am worthy of being loved!” |
Change your words, change your thoughts (thoughts are just words), change your life and attract your dreams!
