"Isn't applying the Law of Attraction just another Form of Wishful Thinking?"

Hardly.

Wishful thinking runs in the category of passive hoping and wondering. Very little active energy or focus is brought to bear on your thoughts with wishful thinking. When you're daydreaming or wishful thinking, you become distracted the next moment another impulse grabs your attention.

Very little in life can be accomplished with such passive non-activity. And nothing is wrong with that. But if you're actually interested in manifesting your desires, some mental focus and application will be necessary.

The Law of Attraction is active 24/7 whether you apply attention or not. The Law of Attraction manages energy. Everything is energy. So if you have no impulse to focus attention, things will continue to recreate from the former level. In other words, things replicate in the same form. You see very little evidence of improvement.

If you want to add momentum to an idea you want to have manifest, add positive emotion. Create a clear vision. Include as much of your imagination and enthusiasm that it's already here. Now you're giving the Universe direct, clear and amplified information to replicate. Further, you can't expect to offer this attention just once and have any impact. Engage your mind and senses daily - the more often, the better.

"Well, that sounds like work."

You don't have to practice with your energy and thoughts that way. You can continue with the same old unconscious thought patterns you have and continue with the status quo. It's always your choice how you want to run your life. Remember, free will indicates that only you can think your thoughts and feel your feelings. So the choice is yours. Do you want to play life on a bigger playing field? Or let the default program run? It's always your choice.

For me and my clients, we've learned that it's a lot of fun to live life on your terms. It's fun to have ideas and bring them to fruition. That's what being a deliberate creator is all about. We keep adding more and more to the unlimited and boundless universal mix. Try it. It takes some practice at first, but it's very gratifying and it's easier than you think.
