The Secret, The Law Of Attraction

October 17, 2007

Some of us ate in school today, and accompanied the rest to Botak Jones.
Sat there for quite some time, and left.
Went back to school.
Then I went to meet ZhiWei and YuZhi.
YuZhi is full of crap, I don't know how to not laugh when his around.
As for ZhiWei, she just keeps laughing at and hitting him.
We went seperate ways at around 6PM, I went to collect my clothes at night and headed home.

I was surfing the web and I found something at MSN's homepage.
This is it:
http://lifestyle.msn.com/mindbodyandsoul/personalgrowth/articlegh.aspx?cp-documentid=5569524&page=1 

It's an article about what I've been reading and emphasizing on, the Law Of Attraction.
Her conclusion is that the Law Of Attraction actually works, in a way, but also doesn't really work.
I'd say it would work for her, if she had not been “suspecting” it right from the start.
She should know from the book that for something to work, one has to fully focus on how it is going to work.
But she hasn't done so, from the start to the end, she has been doubting it. And so in her mind throughout the entire experiment, she has been visualizing both herself proving that it does not work, and proving that it works.
The results? Neither.
She's continuously not believing the book, and at the same time, believe the book. So which of her belief would come into reality? None. When her belief comes into reality, her disbelief gets rid of it, and vice versa.

Trust

Family trust, friendship trust, relationship trust.
Do others find it hard to trust you? And do you find it hard to trust others?

Do your parents trust your ability to think sensibly? Or do they often ask you if you are on drugs, and claim that they ask out of concern? Yes, it is infact true concern, for some parents who don't know how to “keep track” of their kids, and so the only way is to ask like this, but that's not how their kids see it. Their kids see it as distrust. It depends more or less on how much the parents understand their kids and vice versa.

When you tell something very personal to a friend, and make him/her promise not to tell anyone, how much do you trust that person's promise?

One night your girlfriend is sleeping over at a guy's house. When you ask her out, she says she isn't free, she is out with her female friend and you trust her. And after a few months deeper into the relationship, you find out the truth. How much trust deposited into her would you withdraw?

On what conditions, how, and when would you trust? Close friends? Family? Your partner? Your buddies from your current school? Your childhood buddies? I'm sure you all have heard the saying, “Your best friend can be your worst enemy.”
This doesn't necessarily apply to only friends. It applies to everybody, everything. As long as it knows you well, it can be your enemy. What if your close friends are jealous of your money? They know you only have them as your only friends. What if your brothers are jealous that your dad is giving you the CEO position and decides to sabotage you? What if your girlfriend is only after your money, but acts as though she isn't, very well? Do you trust that the people you trust, won't be like that? Do you know what exactly is in their minds? You can say that they have kept secrets for you, for a very, very long time. But what if they are just doing so because they have made long-term plans? Are you sure they will remain as who they are forever? People change. During puberty, and even after puberty, people still change too. Today I can keep all your secrets, I can keep all your problems made known to me unknown to anyone else, but tomorrow, I can let it all out, I can tell your guy what you did, I can tell your parents what brand of, and how many cigarettes you smoke a day.
I'd say, the only person you should trust is yourself. As for others, it depends on how much you plan to put at stake.
