Is there a more terrible feeling than the idea that the Law Of Attraction may not be working for you? Maybe you’re putting in the work and doing all the asking and visualizing but yet you aren’t receiving any of the desires from the Universe that you are wishing for. Where could the problem lie in all of this?
The reason the Law Of Attraction isn’t working for you is because you are in a state of resistance. You aren’t allowing it to work fully in your life. Find ways to release resistance and you’ll open up the flood gates for the Law Of Attraction to work miracles in your life.
Read on as we will uncover what types of resistance you may be suffering from and how you can release all of it to allow the Law Of Attraction to work magic in your life.

You Are Complaining Too Much
Yes, you read that headline right! If you want the Law Of Attraction to begin working in your life… it’s time you stop complaining about everything! When you complain about something, you are wishing that things are different. However, the basis of the Universe is that everything in your life right now is perfect. If everything is perfect right now, then there would be no reason to complain.
When you complain, you are looking at your life from a very limited perspective. The Universe is constantly acting in your favor and everything that happens in your life isn’t happening to you, but happening for you. When you think something is going wrong or bad and you begin complaining, you are taking yourself into a very low vibrational state. That vibrational state is sending you more things in your life that you don’t agree with and is going to cause you to complain more.
Clean up that vibration by realizing everything is happening for you and every event happening in your life right now is taking you to your ultimate well-being. Didn’t get that job you thought you wanted? Instead of complaining about it, realize that the Universe has something better in store for you.
Get stopped in traffic when you’re in a hurry? Instead of complaining about it, look at it from a higher perspective, maybe the Universe is telling you to slow down a little bit in life and to let you know that there is really nothing important or serious going on.
Here’s a couple fantastic quotes from Joshua from The Joshua Diet book about the subject of complaining:
“Instead of complaining about something, you’re going to find a way to praise it. The praising of things you don’t like will help you receive things you do like. This is the new operating system. Nothing is wrong, so there’s no need to complain. There’s no purpose in talking about what you do not like. This is your habit and it’s contradictory. It goes against everything you want.
If you can do this one thing, your life will radically improve. It will transform into something truly wonderful. Simply by refraining from complaining and instead working to see it in a positive light, your life will shift upwards so dramatically that you won’t truly believe it. You might not believe that such a simple change in your approach to life could cause such a profound shift in your reality. But it is true. You see, by refusing to complain and then choosing to see the beauty in the ugly, you change your entire point of attraction. You raise your vibration from low to high with one simple change in your approach. You move from fighting against the system of reality to engaging the leverage of universal forces. You go from paddling upstream to floating downstream. It’s as simple as that.”
You have the opportunity to create your reality by choosing any perspective on any subject. Don’t drop into a low vibrational state by complaining about something you don’t agree with or you judge as wrong. Embrace everything that comes into your life as it’s completely for you. Enjoy it, have fun with it, and keep high on your vibrational spiral.

You Are Having Contradictory Thoughts
Have you ever had a great inspired idea to do something but then just a few seconds after you hear from that other voice inside your head telling you it’s all a bad idea? These thoughts make you feel negative emotion, thus causing fear, and then you don’t follow through with that inspired idea.
What you just experienced are known as contradictory thoughts. These are simply negative thoughts that contradict the positive inspired thought that you had. Contradicting thoughts can arrive in the smallest of situations like receiving inspiration to call a loved one or buy a new tv. You may get the idea to do these things and it feels good but then suddenly you are hit with all these reasons why you shouldn’t.
Abraham Hicks offers up a great quote on contradictory thoughts:
“When you no longer split your flow of energy with contradictory thoughts… you will know your power.”
What they are saying here is your thoughts are a magnetic energy. When you send out positive thoughts, you are attracting back positive happenings in your existence. However, when you contradict your positive thoughts, that energy is now a little polluted so you aren’t going to be receiving back the positive happenings that you are desiring.
So how can we get rid or at least tone down our contradictory thoughts that may arise in us? It’s all about trusting the Universe. The Universe is looking out for you 100% of the time and constantly sending amazing things into your life. You need to decide today that you are going to act on all inspired ideas no matter what that voice inside your head says. Push passed fear and continue to feed yourself positive statements.
When the contradictory thought arises in you, ignore it and replace it with something positive. Give yourself nudges of positivity and remind yourself that you are wired to win and no matter what happens, it’ll be for your best interest. The more you fight off those contradictory thoughts when they come up, the easier it gets and the faster all your dreams will begin manifesting in your life.
You Have Too Much Fear And Limiting Beliefs
Another reason why the Law Of Attraction may not be working in your life is due to your fear and limiting beliefs. This was a huge issue for me when I was first learning the Law Of Attraction, the beliefs I had about the world and about myself were too limiting and because of that I wasn’t able to push passed fear and allow the Universe to work magic in my life.
What are limiting beliefs you may ask? Limiting beliefs are simply false beliefs that protect you from reaching your full potential. Similar to contradictory thoughts, a limiting belief arises due to a fear that you have on a subject. Many people believe they are not worthy of having all the things they desire.
They want the big house, the nice car, and all the money they can dream of, however, deep down they don’t think they can attain it and they don’t think they are worthy. This is all based in a limiting belief about yourself. The truth is, by being alive you are worthy of anything you desire. There is nothing that you can’t be, do or have and it’s only your own thoughts that are keeping you from what you want.
Let’s say you have an idea to start a new business. You get this inspired idea to go into business for yourself but suddenly you are hit with a bunch of contradictory thoughts and fears. Why are you feeling these fears? It’s because you have a limiting belief on the subject of starting your own business. Maybe you think it’s going to be too much work… Maybe you think you won’t be able to find the time to do it… What if you do find the time and put in the work but you fail! All these beliefs are extremely limiting, are causing you fear, and are making you stop following your dream.
You need to push passed these limiting beliefs and realize that you cannot fail. Failure is not real and only an illusion you’ve made up in your mind. Failure does not exist in the Universe because no matter what happens it opens the door to something new. So keep pushing through your fear, realize you are a limitless being and you simply cannot fail.
Here is a great quote from The Teachings Of Joshua about failure and the Universe:
“If you believed you could not fail, you would engage the forces of the universe and together you would be so powerful, so aligned, so confident, so effective, that you could not fail. It would simply be out of the realm of possibility. The universe yields to you. When you act in faith, trusting that things will ultimately go your way, without any doubt or fear, with clarity of focus, you can achieve anything.”
You Are Choosing A Negative And Limiting Perspective
Many of us out don’t even realize this but we get to choose our perspectives on everything that happens in life. That should be feel extremely freeing if that is the first time you’ve ever heard that. Most people live life like a victim and they allow things and events to determine their moods and emotions.
If they get fired from their job they get angry, upset and depressed. Well, what if when you get fired from your job you felt joy? What if you felt excitement? What if you felt an eagerness to see what is going to happen next? It’s all about the perspective you take on a subject.
Some people look at life and their current situation in a very negative light. They aren’t happy or satisfied with what’s going on so they turn to things like the Law Of Attraction in an attempt to become happy and fix their life. The problem with this is their life is already perfect.
They are just choosing to look at it for a negative and limited perspective. You see, we came into this life to explore physical reality. We came for the joy and pleasure of expanding and living life in a way that’s yet to be lived. Every day we get the chance to live from a different perspective, every day we get to choose who we are going to be. If you are choosing to live life as a victim and choosing to see the negative in everything instead of the positive, you are vibrating at a very low frequency and thus not attracting the things that you desire.
Change your perspective on all things in your life and see them in a positive light, this is going to keep you vibrating at an extremely high frequency and you’ll start seeing the Law Of Attraction work more and more in your life.
As Joshua from The Teachings Of Joshua likes to say,
Everything is happening FOR you and not TO you.
When you take this approach to life you begin to realize that the Universe is always acting in your favor. Even when something comes up in your life that you think is bad or wrong, you are simply choosing the wrong perspective. Alter your perspective and see all things in a positive light and know that it is for your benefit and growth and will ultimately lead you to the thing you want most.
You Aren’t Using Your Imagination
Imagination and the Law Of Attraction go together hand in hand. You are given an imagination for a reason and that is so you can imagine and visualize how you want your life to be. You are the creator of your reality remember. You can choose anything, it’s totally up to you. However, most people use their imagination in a negative light. Instead of using their imagination to see themselves as confident and successful and abundant, they use it to stress and worry.
You are free to use your imagination however you like, the only issue is when you use your imagination to stress and worry and see a negative outcome to your situation, you are attracting more and more of that into your life. Get in the habit of using your imagination to see the greatest outcome possible. Picture yourself kicking butt and winning each and every day. Picture yourself with massive amounts of money in your bank account and a beautiful big house.
Keep feeding yourself these images and use your imagination to your advantage instead of using it for worry. The sooner you can do this, the sooner you’ll see the Law Of Attraction work amazing wonders in your life.
You Are Taking Life Too Seriously
This is a big one here. When you begin taking life too seriously, you begin altering your point of attraction to a very low vibrational state. Life is whatever you want it to be. Remember, no matter what perspective you take on your life, the Universe is going to take care of you.
That means, you can choose to have life be completely spontaneous and fun and silly every single day. Many people believe that life needs to be taken seriously and if you don’t then you simply won’t get ahead in life. The opposite is true, you see. When you are having fun without a care in the world, you are living a resistance free life. When you have no resistance in your vibration you are constantly manifesting every single thing you want fast and easy.
Check out this quote by Joshua below:
“In order to radically change your approach to life, begin living as a happy child does. Do not worry about what others are thinking. Express your love. Express your passion. Be loud, fearless, and confident. Tempt failure by trying new things. Seek to find the joy that is inherent in all things and all people. Change your words to match your new approach to life.”
Hopefully this analogy allows you to see this a little clearer. When in doubt about how you should act and behavior… just ask yourself what a child would do! Children are the perfect example of beings that don’t take life seriously at all, they just want to play and have fun. They don’t have a care in the world about what other people think of them and they have never seem to get tired!
Another great example that Esther Hicks claimed to have done in order to add a bit more fun into her life was she literally focused on the word “FUN” all day long. She kept repeating that word to herself over and over again and by doing this the Universe began showing her all these new fun things in her life. Even stuff that didn’t use to be fun for her now suddenly felt exciting to do.
By changing your approach to life and stop looking at things so seriously all the time, you’ll open up the floodgates for amazing things to begin transpiring in your life. You’ll start looking forward to each and every day and you’ll feel as though life is simply delicious!
You Aren’t Meditating Enough
Throughout every article on this site, I always stress the importance of meditation. I know a lot of readers on here have already practiced meditation before, but are you doing it on a regular basis? I believe the length of meditation does not matter too much but your consistency does.
You need to make meditation be a daily priority much like taking a shower or brushing your teeth. You need to make sure you find time each and every day to practice because meditation really is the key path to all that you want.
Here is a perfect quote about the importance of meditation from Abraham Hicks:
“The reason meditation is a good process is because when you meditate, you quiet your mind. And when you quiet your mind, you stop all thought, which means you’ve stopped resistant thought too. And when you stop resistance, your cork naturally floats to the surface and your vibration raises.”
Meditation allows you to slow everything down. It calms all your anxious responses to thought and allows you to choose how you react to things. It puts you in a start of allowing instead of automatic reacting to things. If you really took the time to meditate at least 10 minutes (more if you can) every single day, you would start seeing the things you wish to manifest slowly pop up one by one. There really isn’t any other way around this. When your mind is clear of resistance, you are fully open to receiving thoughts of inspiration which can lead you to all the things in life that you wish to have.
Your meditation session does not have to be complicated by any means. All you need is you and you alone. If you can find a quiet place, that will work better but the truth is meditation can take place anywhere.
Simply close your eyes where you are and begin focusing solely on your breathing. You repeat to yourself in your mind “I am breathing in, and now I am breathing out” Focus on that feeling of your belly raising and falling with every breath you take. Focus on the feeling of the air going through your nostrils. Keep your focus on the physical sensations of the breath and gently open your eyes when your meditation has completed.
So many of us claim we don’t have enough time in our day to meditate and if that’s the case for you, I have a solution. You can meditate anywhere anytime!
In the office at work, you can meditate! You don’t need to close your eyes for this at all. As you sit there at work (or wherever you may be) pick a noise that you hear and turn all your attention to that noise. This could be the sound of the AC unit, the sound of people’s voices, maybe some sounds from outside the window. Put all your focus on that noise and that noise alone. Just by doing this for a few seconds you should already begin to feel a great state of relief. What you are experiencing is a big drop in your levels of resistance and that is the key to simplistic manifestation!
Both Abraham and Joshua have some excellent meditation audios you can follow along too. I’ll include them below so you can check them out.

Joshua Meditation:
It’s Already Working For You
Did you ever stop and think maybe the Law Of Attraction is working for you? Maybe the Universe is preparing the way for everything you could possibly desire but it is waiting for that perfect moment to present itself to you. If you take this perspective and look at your life this way it’s going to fight off some of that doubt and resistance.
The truth is, the Law Of Attraction is always working and the Universe is bending over backwards each and every day to pave the way to give you everything you want. You simply need to distract yourself until those things come to you! Find ways to have fun while you wait and don’t worry or doubt the process.
Some things take time but all things come to you in the right moment. Let the Universe pick the moment and the timing of when it presents you with the things you want and in the meantime you can sit back, relax and enjoy knowing they are on the way.
Wrap Up
I know this article has covered a lot but I truly believe these are some of the main factors as to why the Law Of Attraction may not working as you would like it to in your life right now. You may be doing fantastic at some of these aspects but others you may need to improve some of your work on. Again, it all comes down to eliminating resistance from your vibration and then raising it to a higher frequency.
The easiest way to do this is just to simply enjoy life! Skip around, laugh loudly, be yourself and don’t give a rip about what other people think. It’s fun to have fun and life is so much more enjoyable when you stop taking it so seriously! Get out of the way and let the Universe shine bright in your life. Let go of the oars that you’ve been struggling to paddle with and simply float downstream.
Get in the backseat of the car, hand over the keys, and let the Universe drive you toward everything that you want. The key is to relax and allow all throughout your life. When you start resisting events and resisting happenings, that is when you are tampering with the Universe’s plan for you. Tell yourself that for now on your priorities are relaxing, allowing and having fun. Choose this new perspective on life today and tomorrow you’ll start seeing the Law Of Attraction working magic in your life.
