Stories from the Law of Attraction: The Good, the Bad, and the Funny

By Judi Mason

Stories can make us laugh, they can make us cry and they can inspire and teach us.
This book includes a collection of real life stories from people of all ages, all over the world. Their accounts are both funny and inspiring.

What would you like to create?
-Better health?
- Stronger relationships?
-More wealth and abundance in your life?

The basic principle of The Law of Attraction is what we focus on - we create. Here you will find many examples of people manifesting what they wanted including money, love, jobs, friends, even a diamond, and sometimes what wasnt wanted. You know the old saying Be careful what you ask for, you just may get it.

To help you to focus more clearly on what you want, there is a section on inspired actions, which talks about creating vision boards and books, meditation, visualization and more.

I have had many teachers and read numerous books. Through all of the teachings, one message is the same
You are the Creator!

Read this book, enjoy the stories and let yourself be reminded of your own stories and reawaken the belief and the certainty that yes I know this and yes it is possible.
Sometimes we just need to be reminded of our own power.

About the Author

For Greg, Christine, Rebecca, Joshua, and Denielle:

You are my light, my love, and my inspiration.

Preface

I love listening to stories, I love reading stories, and I love telling stories. Stories have a way of teaching us effortlessly, often in a way where our left brain logic gets out of the way and stops interrupting because they are just stories (aren’t they?). Stories can make us laugh, and they can make us cry; they can make us think about our own stories, and they can, and often do, inspire us. So when I received the inspiration for this book, I was elated.

I was sitting in the car one morning listening to The Law of Attraction on compact disc. I had been going through some very challenging months, and I was enjoying listening to the CDs again, so I was just in the zone. Suddenly, the idea for this book just popped into my head. Although I had written several short stories, I hadn’t seriously thought of writing a book before. The idea resonated with me because I had often told stories about manifesting, and I knew that many people connected with the stories and also enjoyed sharing their own stories. I was so excited about it, and it changed my whole perspective instantly. Previously, I’d had an urge to write down everything that had gone wrong for me over the past couple of months, and I had resisted that urge because I knew about the law of attraction. I was trying to focus on positives. However, it was always there in the background and was affecting how I was feeling.

After I received the inspiration for this book, the urge returned, so I sat down and listed everything that had gone wrong over the past three months. After I finished that, I wrote down everything that had gone right in the same time frame. I ended up with about one page of negatives and three pages of positives, and I felt great. I had purged the negatives and was able to completely focus on, and be grateful for, all of the positives in my life. One of those positives was the idea for this book. I hadn’t been this excited about something for a long time. I started talking to people about their stories, and amazing things began to happen. Everyone was getting excited about this book, and they now remembered things in their lives where they had created what they wanted (and sometimes what they didn’t want), so everyone was now focusing on the law of attraction.

One friend said to me, Thank you for doing this because while I’m thinking about the stories for you, I’m in the zone and attracting more positive things to me, so I just keep manifesting more stories for your book. So before this book was even written, it was already having a positive impact on many people.

I hope you also enjoy the stories and feel both inspired and empowered.

Introduction

I am always amazed every day by the many and varied ways the law of attraction works, from random phone calls or books falling off the shelf to your feet to unusual hunches to go somewhere or look at something to simply thinking about someone, and then a few seconds later, getting a call from them. These synchronicities are all around us. The more we become aware of it, the more we see it happening, and it adds some magic to our lives.

I find it very empowering to know that we can create what we want, and I am so grateful to be living in the awareness of what I am feeling and therefore manifesting.

Along with many of my own stories, people of all ages and from all walks of life have contributed stories to this book. Some of the stories are very short, and some quite long, but they are all true stories told by each person in their own, unique way about their personal experiences.

The book is divided into five parts: The Good, The Bad, The Funny, Children’s Stories, and Inspired Actions.

The Good is the largest section of the book. It’s filled with a variety of stories about things, people, health, wealth, and events that have been created by deliberately using the law of attraction, consciously focusing on what was wanted, and, even more importantly, being open to receive it: from little things such as a bunch of flowers to something grand like a diamond. Some things seem easier to manifest, but that is only because we believe that it’s easier. For example, a bunch of flowers would be nice, but there is very little importance put on it; it doesn’t really matter whether we have it or not, but it’s a nice thought. In this scenario, there is no resistance to receiving the flowers. However, in the case of money, for example, we might really need that, and therefore, we put much more importance on the outcome of that manifestation; this puts us in a different vibration, and it seems harder to manifest. If we could take the same approach (light-hearted, easy-going) as we did with the flowers, we could manifest whatever we desire.

In the next section, "The Bad, I have included a selection of stories whose aim is not to focus on bad things happening, but to show how we need to be more aware of what we consciously and unconsciously ask for. Since my husband, Greg, and I have been learning about the law of attraction, we occasionally notice each other blurting out something (old habits) that we do not want to create in our lives, so we often remind each other to be more conscious. Many times, it is so ingrained in our habits, we are not even aware we are saying it. Things such as He’s a pain in the neck, or I’d die for [whatever] right now, I nearly had a heart attack, That drives me crazy," and so on. Once we become aware, it’s quite surprising how many of these old sayings we blurt out.

This section is to make us realise that we are creating all the time and once we become aware of that, we can change our old habits and consciously ask for what we really do want to create in our lives. I had a difficult time collecting stories for this part. It is the smallest section of the book. I think that is because, in hindsight, something that seemed bad at the time actually ended up being good, and as you’ll see, although I have placed some of these stories in the bad section, they really do have positive outcomes.

The stories in The Funny section are examples of remembering to be specific when we ask for something. There are many stories here of how the law of attraction gives us exactly what is asked for, even if that was not what we really meant. For example, I met a lovely lady who was telling me she always used to say, I want to marry a rich man. The name of the man she married was Ritchie, and everyone called him Rich, so she did, in fact, marry a rich man; he just had very little money.

Then there is the Children’s Stories section. Children are true creators. They are born knowing much more than we give them credit for but are often told that they can’t have everything they want. It was in childhood that most of us learnt about phrases such as Money doesn’t grow on trees or Money is the root of all evil. Well, you get the idea, but now with more awareness of the law of attraction, the younger generation is growing up with much less resistance and fewer negative belief patterns to overcome.

Finally, there is a section on Inspired Actions of the law of attraction, such as creating vision boards, meditation, visualisation, and much more to get you focusing in the direction you want to go.

It’s nice to be reminded that
