Book Review: The Law of Attraction by Michael Losier

If you've tried working on the Law of Attraction, you probably know by now that manifesting what you want when you want it is easier said than done. There is no perfect solution to that conundrum, but there may be some useful advice here and there. The Law of Attraction by Michael Losier professes to be a compendium of such useful advice. I think, on the whole, it is, although, as with most such books, it is not a one-size-fits-all set of techniques.

Losier has broken down using the Law of Attraction into three steps. The first is clarifying what it is you want. The second is writing a statement that facilitates focusing your thoughts on what it is you want on an ongoing basis. The third is a technique for dealing with doubts, fears, and other concerns that may “block” your receipt of your desires.

I found these tools useful. There are worksheets that go with each step, and you can obtain full-size copies in electronic form from Losier’s website. These worksheets are useful for their intended purpose, such as the Clarity through Contrast worksheet, which helps you define your desires by identifying what you do not want. There are worksheets for writing desire statements and the “allowing” (third) step.

My take on it is that this is a useful book for the beginner in deliberate reality creation. Many sources tell you that you must focus your mental energy on having what you want before you have it, but they give no concrete tools for how to do that. Don’t get me wrong here, though. Using these worksheets is not going to vaporize doubts altogether, and it is not going to make it effortless for you to develop the faith that you have what you want when you lack the tangible evidence of it. However, given the difficulty that many people, such as myself, have with visualizing having something they cannot see or feel, these techniques are helpful.

I do not recommend this as a starting point for a journey into reality creation. I think The Secret is a better tool for that. Nor is it a good text for understanding more about the underpinnings of reality creation. The Seth material is a much better source for that type of information. I do recommend the book, though, for those folks who have already begun the journey into reality creation and manifestation as one more tool to put into your manifestation toolbox. This book should not be the only tool in that box any more than any other single tool should be, but it’s a good one to have.
