In the area of creating abundance most of the attention is given to the Law of Attraction. Another law is the Law of Repulsion. I first learned about it when I read How to Solve All of Your Money Problems Forever. Victor Boc, the author, makes the promise stated in the title without a second thought.
The Law of Repulsion is based on a simple premise but very insightful. Many people use the practices of the Law of Attraction without success and wonder what’s wrong. They think the law isn’t working instead of questioning how their behaviors aren’t working. Boc’s teaching of the Law of Repulsion makes perfect sense.
If we can attract something to us, doesn’t it make good sense that we can also repulse it? Naturally, that does make sense, but you’re asking yourself, if you really want something, why would you push it away. By jove, that’s a great question. The answer is that the repulsing occurs for the most part subconsciously.
If something was not stopping the attracting process then all people would have everything they are desiring. Unfortunately, that is not the case. In fact, the majority of people do not attract what they want.
That is when the Law of Repulsion comes into effect. We are capable of sending confusing messages to the Universe. I desire lots of money, but I also think only greedy people make lots of money. I want people to respect me but I don’t respect myself. I want to be as thin and beautiful as the top models, but I don’t take care of my body.
The piece of the equation that effects this dynamic is the amount of energy that goes into each belief? Does the positive piece receive the most energy or the negative part? It is that simple. Remember that all life is energy. When the positive receives more energy, it is attracting and when the negative is receiving the most it is repelling.
This process is very profound. When we measure with numbers, the best case situation is 100% pulling in and 0% repelling. Neutral is 50/50. We can say that you must pull something to you with a minimum of 51% of the energy. That would be the worst case scenario in attracting. So, the difference is a mere 1% between attracting and repulsing.
Fortunately, we can overcome 1%. How do we do that? We look at the positives and negatives of what we desire. We make an adjustment in what we do. Is it too simple?
I think we have a tendency to make life hard. We are programmed in so many ways to think we must work hard to have something. That’s how the saying, work smart not hard, came to be.
“It’s not worth having if you don’t work for it.” Tell that to the latest lottery winner. Please don’t misunderstand me. I’m not saying we don’t have to put energy into what we want, but it really can be simple.
Simple is not the same as easy. Einstein had a wonderful quote, “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.”
Are you wondering what you’re going to do with this information? Awesome question and here’s an equally great answer. First off, relax with it. Awareness is the first step toward change. Think about something you’ve desired but have not attracted into your reality. Is the Law of Repulsion operating in some way? Make a change remembering that the change could be as small an adjustment as 1%!
Should the change require a bigger degree, let’s say 49%, do not let it overwhelm you. This is an appropriate time to remember that baby steps are what you need. Be sure to be gentle with yourself and give yourself credit for every step you make toward your desire. When it comes to creating abundance there are two laws, the Law of Attraction and the Law of Repulsion. Use both to your advantage!
