The Power of Desire, Belief and Expectation
How to Get in the Right Mindset to Manifest Your Intentions
In the last lesson you learned a technique to help you properly apply the Law of Attraction into your life to draw towards you the things, events and circumstances you seek to build a life you desire. The technique involved spending a few minutes a day in meditation and creative visualization.
Learning the technique is the first step. But how do you approach your goals AFTER you come out of your daily visualization session? What attitudes, feelings and emotions do you need to maintain or create?
To make your intentions come into your life with greater frequency and consistency it's important to understand the three forces of power, those forces are -- desire, belief, and expectation.
Before anything that you want to happen can happen, you have to have a desire that it will happen. You have to believe that it can happen. And you must expect it to happen.
DESIRE
BELIEF
EXPECTATION
Sounds simple? Perhaps. But there is a lot more to it.

After the Secret. 7 facts about The Secret LOA (Law of Attraction)
WARNING: Don’t try to use “The Secret” without knowing this…or it may backfire!
If you’re like me, you loved The Secret. It’s a dramatic, entertaining, and an amazing introduction to the idea that your thoughts actually create your reality. You’ve probably seen the teachers from The Secret on Oprah or Larry King Live, or maybe you just ran across the movie yourself—but once you’ve seen the movie or heard the teachers, you can begin to see brand new possibilities opening in your life.
“Imagine you have a Genie before you, ready to make your wildest wishes and desires come true…” What a wonderful thought, yes? And The Secret reveals to us that this is true—the universe is simply waiting for us like a Genie, uttering “Your wish is my command…”
Knowledge of this stunning truth gives you the power to improve your life dramatically. I greatly admire and respect the writing and opinions of the experts who appear in the movie, but I have to tell you that there is more to the story than what is being told—a whole LOT more. And you’ll need to know the rest of the story if you want to use the Secret to make real, lasting improvements in your life.
What seems like a great thing at first—a powerful genie saying, “Your wish is my command”—could become a nightmare if that power is not managed properly. If you saw the movie Bedazzled, with Brendan Frazer and Elizabeth Hurley, you know what I mean. In the movie, Brendan’s character is given seven wishes—all of which go horribly, horribly wrong. These wishes wreak havoc on his life, to the point that at the end he just wanted his old life back—the way it was. See that movie before asking too much of your personal “Genie”.
The Secret reveals that the Law of Attraction was studied in Ancient Schools and Secret Societies throughout history. This is true. People studied (and continue to study) this Law, along with many other even lesser known laws of nature, for years and years before they were able to use “The Secret” in safe and positive ways. This is not something that can be learned from 90-minute movie. The Secret is a great introduction to the Law of Attraction, and to all the wonderful teachers who speak about this Law in the film, but it does not teach you how to safely and practically employ it in your life any more than watching the Indy 500 teaches you how to safely drive a car.
The Secret tells you that you can use the Law of Attraction to get anything you want in life, by holding onto the thoughts and emotions of what you want and the things you think about will naturally come to you. This, of course, assumes that you can control your thoughts and emotions enough to hold onto thoughts and emotions that are different than the ones you habitually have. And, ay, there’s the rub. Changing the way that we normally think and feel is not as easy as it sounds. It is a skill that needs to be developed.
So, if you are interested in learning how to master the Law of Attraction to make real improvements in your life, consider the following seven additional facts:
1. We cannot control the great majority of our thoughts:
If we want to change our thoughts the first thing that we should understand is that only 10% (or less) of our thoughts are under our conscious control. The other 90% of our mental activity is governed by our Subconscious.
And what lies in our Subconscious? Whatever we were told was true when we were younger by our parents, authority figures, education, the media, etc. Add to that the fears and buried emotions that were placed into us by traumatic experiences, and our animal desires (e.g., eating, sleeping, sex, etc.) and we have a pretty good picture of what’s dominating most of our mental activity and motivations.
2. The Brain is Designed Not to Change:
The truth is, we don’t even have one brain to use to create the positive thoughts we need to hold onto in order to use the Secret—we actually have three. And the parts of our brain that run the show are actually the oldest, least developed parts.
The strongest part of our brain is called the “reptilian brain,” and it is purely interested in basic survival and reproduction instincts.
The next strongest part of our brain is the limbic system, which governs our emotional world.
These two brains have no logic and we have little conscious control over them, so they are the areas that the best advertisers target to stimulate with their marketing campaigns.
The brain that governs our conscious control is the logical cerebral cortex, which is where we would be imagining the things we want as we use the Secret. We can conceive whatever we want out of our logical minds—the cerebral cortex—but advertisers know, “the reptile always wins.”
By stimulating our reptilian and limbic brains, advertisers and propagandists can make us want things that we may not even really want from our logical, cortex-driven, mind. So, are you even sure you know what you really want?
3. Most of our wishes in life are not our own:
I know it’s hard to believe, but if the facts above are true (and modern research supports all of this), then many of our dreams and wishes are may not be really ours—they are the dreams and wishes that we received from all the sources above that have programmed and conditioned our Subconscious.
Over one-half of the companies on the Fortune 100 list are clients of Claude Rapaille, a man whose mission is to get products past the conscious cerebral cortex and imprint them directly into the reptilian brain. Do you think these companies would spend so much money on these tactics if they didn’t work?
It’s just that this “imprinting” or “programming” is so deep, that we believe that the thoughts are our own.
But, if we use the Law of Attraction to ask for “wishes” that are not really ours, how is that ever going to make us happy and fulfilled?
The truth is, that the first thing that was taught in the ancient schools where The Secret was studied is for the student to “Know Thyself.” In fact, this motto was written on the doorway at the entry to many of these Schools. Why was that?
Because we do not, in fact, know ourselves due to the overwhelming amount of conditioning we have all received since birth. And if we don’t in fact know ourselves, how do we know what to ask for that will make us truly happy?
Sure, more money, a house, a car, a relationship, and all of those things are great—but will the attainment of all of those things equal the attainment of happiness?
In The Secret, the teachers repeat that “you” create your reality. But which “you” are they referring to? The “you” that is the product of cultural conditioning?
Or is there a deeper, more true “you” that is buried inside you, dying to express itself? That “you,” the real “you”, will guide you to greater levels of happiness and fulfillment than you can even imagine.
Now, that’s a powerful secret.
4. We don’t control our emotions either:
In The Secret, the experts also advise us to use our “Emotional Guidance System” to keep our emotions positive so that we remain in alignment with the energy of the universe and are always attracting good things.
Now, I absolutely agree with this. It is super-important to keep yourself at a high vibrational level, which is often experienced as “positive” emotions. But, managing your emotions is probably more difficult than managing your thoughts. Most of us experience emotions as “moods,” which change on their own, without our control. Modern research has shown us that all emotions change our body chemistry, and that we actually become addicted to the chemicals that produce the emotions we habitually have.
“So, we actually become addicted to emotions,” you may be asking.
And the answer is “Yes.”
If you’ve seen The Secret, you have probably also seen What the Bleep do We Know, another excellent film on the merging of science and spirituality. If not, you should definitely go rent it soon. What the Bleep illustrates the issue of emotional addiction in a wonderfully entertaining way.
So, if we are not in control of our emotions, how do we remain in harmony with the universe?
This is another great question that the students in the ancient schools worked on for long periods of time before learning to use The Secret.
As you read each of the points in this article, can you see how there is much more to The Secret that you will need to know in order to use it effectively and wisely?
5. Staying Positive is a lot of Work
Another important thing you need to know in order to make the Law of Attraction work is that you need to remain completely positive that your desire will be fulfilled over time—until the thought becomes reality.
Remember, EVERY thought is a creation. So if you think, “I want a good relationship,” but the next day think, “But who’s going to fall in love with me,” or “but I’m too busy for a relationship,” you have just cancelled your thought-creation.
You’re probably asking, “Given everything I’ve learned from this article so far, how do I remain positive about what I want all the time?”
That’s a great question.
Knowing how to remain positive is one of the major keys to being successful using the Law of Attraction.
And that question is not answered in the movie.
6. Keep your Secret Desire Secret
Another thing to remember is that it’s not just your thoughts that create reality. Everyone’s thoughts create reality. And, everyone has a Subconscious that they do not control.
So, if you tell someone you are using The Secret to create a Ferrari, and they think, “That’ll never work,” guess what?
They have just sent a negative thought to the “Genie” about your desire. It may not be as strong as your original thought, but it will have an effect. Getting five or ten responses like that will have an even stronger effect.
It doesn’t do any good to get angry at other for their negative thoughts and emotions—we cant control that, and the anger will just make us attract more situations that will cause us anger (under the Law of Attraction).
The best way to protect our desires is to keep them secret until they have become reality.
7. Most Importantly: Nothing is for Free
The most dangerous thing about using the Law of Attraction without fully understanding the laws that govern it is this—nothing is for free. The idea of life as a magic Genie that is waiting to deliver our wishes without any payment in return goes against the fundamental principle Nature, which is balance and harmony. The Universe works on a principle of individual merit that philosopher Dario Salas Sommer calls “egalitarian equivalence.”
Other traditions have called it “karma,” or said, “you reap what you sow.”
Basically, this means that each of us has a “bank account” in the Universe. And we credit or debit our account with each act we undertake. So, when we do positive things for ourselves to create energy, or we perform selfless acts of generosity, for example, we add credits to our account. And when we unconsciously complain, impose ourselves on others, and generally act in negative ways, we debit our account.
The problem is that most of us are not aware that we even have an account in the Universe, much less know how to create credits.
And this means that if we ask our “Genie” for something that we don’t have enough credits to “purchase,” then we go into debt with the Universe.
And the Universe always collects its debts.
What we are actually doing, is asking to reap MORE than we have sown, and that is just not going to work in the long run.
We just don’t usually put these things together. Maybe we get sick, maybe we have problems in our relationships, maybe we have difficulties at work, but the Universe will balance out the “wish” that we manifested but never earned in some way.
So, before you ask your “Genie” for anything, consider if you have enough merit in the Universe. If not, you may receive many unwanted effects that will have you wanting to give that wish back one hundred times over.
If you are interested in learning more about how to successfully create what you want, given everything we have discussed in this article, I suggest you read 360° Success, a practical workbook on achieving lasting, breakthrough success in all aspects of your life.

92. People think that if everyone knows the power of the LOA there won't be enough to go around .. This is a lie that's been ingrained in us and makes so many greedy.
93. The truth is there is more than enough love, creative ideas, power, joy, happiness to go around.
94. All of this abundance begins to shine through a mind that is aware of it's own infinite nature. There's enough for everyone. See it. Believe it. it will show up for you.
95. So let the variety of your reality thrill you as you choose all the things you want.. get behind the good feelings of all your wants.
96. Write your script. When you see things you don't want, don't think about them, write about them, talk about them, push against them, or join groups that focus on the don't wants... remove your attention from don't wants.. and place them on do wants.
97. We are mass energy. Everything is energy. EVERYTHING.
98. Don't define yourself by your body .. it's the infinite being that's connected to everything in the universe.
99. One energy field. Our bodies have distracted us from our energy. We are the infinite field of unfolding possibilities. The creative force.
100. Are your thoughts worthy of you? If not - NOW is the time to change them. You can begin right were you are right now. Nothing matters but this moment and what you are focusing your attention on.

2. The Secret is the Law of Attraction (LOA)
3. Whatever is going on in your mind is what you are attracting
4. We are like magnets - like attract like. You become AND attract what you think
5. Every thought has a frequency. Thoughts send out a magnetic energy
6. People think about what they don't want and attract more of the same
7. Thought = creation. If these thoughts are attached to powerful emotions (good
or bad) that speeds the creation
8. You attract your dominant thoughts
9. Those who speak most of illness have illness, those who speak most of prosperity have it..etc.. 10. It's not "wishful" thinking.
11. You can't have a universe without the mind entering into it
12. Choose your thoughts carefully .. you are a masterpiece of your life
13. It's OK that thoughts don't manifest into reality immediately (if we saw a picture of an elephant and it instantly appeared, that would be too soon)
14. EVERYTHING in your life you have attracted .. accept that fact .. it's true.
15. Your thoughts cause your feelings
16. We don't need to complicate all the "reasons" behind our emotions. It's much simpler than that. Two categories .. good feelings, bad feelings.
17. Thoughts that bring about good feelings mean you are on the right track.
Thoughts that bring about bad feelings means you are not on the right track.
18. Whatever it is you are feeling is a perfect reflection of what is in the process of becoming
19. You get exactly what you are FEELING
20. Happy feelings will attract more happy circumstances
21. You can begin feeling whatever you want (even if it's not there).. the universe will correspond to the nature of your song.
22. What you focus on with your thought and feeling is what you attract into your experience
23. What you think and what you feel and what actually manifests is ALWAYS a match - no exception.
24. Shift your awareness.
25. "You create your own universe as you go along" Winston Churchill
26. It's important to feel good ( ( ( (((good))) ) ) )
27. You can change your emotion immediately .. by thinking of something joyful, or singing a song, or remembering a happy experience.
28. When you get the hang of this, before you know it you will KNOW you are the creator.
29. Life can and should be phenomenal .. and it will be when you consciously apply the Law of Attraction.
30. Universe will re-arrange itself accordingly.
31. Start by using this sentence for all of your wants: "I'm so happy and grateful now that...."
32. You don't need to know HOW the universe is going to rearrange itself.
33. LOA is simply figuring out for yourself what will generate the positive feelings of having it NOW.34. You might get an inspired thought or idea to help you move towards what you
want faster.
35. The universe likes SPEED. Don't delay, don't second-guess, don't doubt..
36. When the opportunity or impulse is there .. ACT.
37. You will attract everything you require - money, people, connections.. PAY ATTENTION to what's being set in front of you.
38. You can start with nothing .. and out of nothing or no way - a WAY will be provided.
39. HOW LONG??? No rules on time .. the more aligned you are with positive feelings the quicker things happen.
40. Size is nothing to the universe (unlimited abundance if that's what you wish) We make the rules on size and time.
41. No rules according to the universe .. you provide the feelings of having it now and the universe will respond.
42. Most people offer the majority of their thought in response to what they are observing (bills in the mail, being late, having bad luck...etc..)
43. You have to find a different approach to what is through a different vantage point.
44. "All that we are is a result of what we have thought" - Buddha
45. What can you do right now to turn your life around?? Gratitude
46. Gratitude will bring more into our lives immediately.
47. What we think about and THANK about is what we bring about.
48. What are the things you are grateful for?? Feel the gratitude.. focus on what you have right now that you are grateful for.
49. Play the picture in your mind - focus on the end result.
50. VISUALIZE!!! Rehearse your future.
51. VISUALIZE!!! See it, feel it! This is where action begins.
52. Feel the joy .. feel the happiness :o)
53. An affirmative thought is 100 times more powerful than a negative one.
54. "What this power is, I cannot say. All I know is that it exists." Alexander Graham Bell
55. Our job is not to worry about the "How". The "How" will show up out of the commitment and belief in the "what".
56. The Hows are the domain of the universe. It always knows the quickest, fastest, most harmonious way between you and your dream.
57. If you turn it over to the universe, you will be surprised and dazzled by what is delivered .. this is where magic and miracles happen.
58. Turn it over to the universe daily.. but it should never be a chore.
59. Feel exhilarated by the whole process .. high, happy, in tune.
60. The only difference between people who are really living this way is they have habituated ways of being.
61. They remember to do it all the time.
62. Create a Vision Board .. pictures of what you want to attract .. every day look at it and get into the feeling state of already having acquired these wants.
63. "Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions." Albert Einstein
64. Decide what you want .. believe you can have it, believe you deserve it, believe it's possible for you.
65. Close your eyes and visualize having what you already want - and the feeling of having it already.
66. Focus on being grateful for what you have already .. enjoy it!! Then release into the universe. The universe will manifest it.
67. "Whatever the mind of man can conceive, it can achieve" W. Clement Stone
68. Set a goal so big that if you achieved it, it would blow your mind.
69. When you have an inspired thought, you must trust it and act on it.
70. How can you become more prosperous?? INTEND IT!!
71. 'Checks are coming in the mail regularly'... or change your bank statement to whatever balance you want in there... and get behind the feeling of having it.
72. Life is meant to be abundant in ALL areas...
73. Go for the sense of inner joy and peace then all outside things appear.
74. We are the creators of our universe.
75. Relationships: Treat yourself the way you want to be treated by others .. love yourself and you will be loved.
76. Healthy respect for yourself.
77. For those you work with or interact with regularly .. get a notebook and write down positive aspects of each of those people.
78. Write down the things you like most about them (don't expect change from them). Law of attraction will not put you in the same space together if you frequencies don't match.
79. When you realize your potential to feel good, you will ask no one to be different in order for you to feel good.
80. You will free yourself from the cumbersome impossibilities of needing to control the world, your friends, your mate, your children....
81. You are the only one that creates your reality.
82. No one else can think or feel for you .. its YOU .. ONLY YOU.
83. Health: thank the universe for your own healing. Laugh, stress free happiness will keep you healthy.
84. Immune system will heal itself.
85. Parts of our bodies are replace every day, every week..etc... Within a few years we have a brand new body.
86. See yourself living in a new body. Hopeful = recovery. Happy = happier biochemistry. Stress degrades the body.
87. Remove stress from the body and the body regenerates itself. You can heal yourself.
88. Learn to become still .. and take your attention away from what you don't want, and place your attention on what you wish to experience.
89. When the voice and vision on the inside become more profound and clear than the opinions on the outside, then you have mastered your life.
90. You are not here to try to get the world to be just as you want it. You are here to create the world around you that you choose.
91. And allow the world as others choose to see it, exist as well.
92. People think that if everyone knows the power of the LOA there won't be enough to go around .. This is a lie that's been ingrained in us and makes so many greedy.
93. The truth is there is more than enough love, creative ideas, power, joy, happiness to go around.

Controversy about different versions of the Secret
Here are two statements from Jerry and Esther regarding their partiipation in The Secret. It is my undersanding that although the new version is being shipped, there are limited copies of the version with them in it still available and you can make a special request for one of them.
The Australian producer of “The Secret” has been inspired by the teachings of Abraham as well as many other remarkable teachers. What was aired in this special was as much a “secret” to Jerry and Esther as it was to everyone else. Jerry and Esther were merely invited to participate and accepted the invitation. It was not produced by Abraham-Hicks Publications, and we are not currently marketing the DVD.
Although Jerry & Esther appreciate many aspects of the finished film, it ended up being quite different from what they had originally contracted to participate in. So when the producer recently insisted on further significant changes in their agreement regarding marketing, distribution, and theatrical rights, Jerry & Esther opted instead to be cut out of the film altogether. This is still in negotiation.
Thank you for your feedback. We will pass it along to Jerry and Esther.
Have a great day,Jeanne
THE SECRET The Television Movie From Jerry & Esther
Dear Friends,
Nearly two years ago, while on-board our Mexican Riviera Cruise, Prime Time Productions did an interview with Jerry and me, and with Abraham, in response to an agreement that we had all carefully crafted together for a television show that was to be aired in Australia called "The Secret." We were told that "The Secret" would be based on our work and that they would seek out other teachers who were in alignment with our work. We reviewed, on DVD, two other projects that had been created by this production company and found them to be beautifully done, and good-feeling pieces.
Since Jerry and I had never before stepped into the public forum in that way with our Abraham work, we followed the advice of our publisher, who introduced us to an intellectual property rights attorney who assisted us in drafting the agreement which would guide our involvement with this project. He explained to us that although he had included in the intellectual property rights license agreement that we were to receive a small percentage of the net profit from this project, and 10% of direct video sales, that it was very unlikely that (from his experience) we would receive any substantial compensation from our participation, and we were not unhappy with that arrangement. Our decision to do it was not motivated from the idea of making money from it, (unless there was profit to share) but because we were stimulated by the excitement of this beautiful producer, and when we met her and her beautiful crew, we easily loved them all.
As time went by, it became apparent that the television network that we had been told would air "The Secret" was not going to do it, at least not right now, and so the production company began seeking other ways of marketing their beautiful project to recoup their very large investment. While Jerry and I were uncomfortable with what felt to us like a rather aggressive marketing campaign (just not our style, nothing wrong with it) we stayed focused on our busy schedule and really had very little to do with what was happening with "The Secret."
Eventually we received an email from the producer of "The Secret" lovingly explaining (we never have received correspondence from her that was anything other than extremely loving) that the contract that we had all agreed upon and signed was no longer sufficient for their further distribution of the project in the areas they were now seeking to distribute the project, and that it would be necessary for us (Jerry and Esther) to relinquish our intellectual property rights in these areas forever and redo our contract or they would have to reluctantly edit us out. It was clear, from the lovingly written email that they did not want to edit us out, but after conferring with our publisher, and then our intellectual property rights attorney, and finally with Abraham, allowing them to edit us out was the path of least resistance. Abraham's words were very clear and easy to understand: "Whenever you are given an ultimatum that says, 'if you don't do this, then we will have to do such and such,' it is best that you just let it go and move on. Otherwise there is always another, and this, and this, and this…"
Now, it seems there is quite a firestorm surrounding our dis-involvment with "The Secret". We are receiving so many emails and letters and face-to-face questions from disappointed people regarding this, so we want you to understand how we feel about it.
We think that "The Secret" clearly and beautifully presents Abraham's Law of Attraction in a way that is easy to understand. It is filled with stunning beauty and beautiful people, many of whom are our personal friends. We love the way "The Secret" moves us, and we feel joy rise within our hearts every time we watch it. We feel the power of it, and the clarity of it, and we love "The Secret".
It is our desire that, rather than being upset that our part of "The Secret" will be omitted in future offerings of it, that instead you enjoy the original Abraham version, as it is, at this time, and that you look forward to what other incredible things these talented people may bring to you. These are people who clearly care about the planet, who want to be of value, and who, in our opinion, are of tremendous value.
Financially speaking, we have been very well paid for our participation with this project… which has amounted to a staggering amount of money. And if money were the most important factor, we assure you, we would have found some way of staying involved.
So, we're out here doing our thing, enjoying the incredible expansion of the message of Abraham, and are so looking forward to the wonderful things that are in our future. Abraham says to us and to you:
It is our desire that you be easy about all of this. There is nothing that has gone wrong here. Everything is in alignment. The Universe will offer a steady stream of uplifting avenues to all of you.
There is great love here for you, Abraham.
Our love, Jerry & Esther
