Forgotten Laws: The Law Of Sacrifice

Improved Essays
Among the 11 Forgotten Laws is more than just the Law of Attraction. There is also the Law of Sacrifice, according to Bob Proctor, a star of the movie "The Secret" who teaches that "The Secret" was incomplete in its own teachings because it only focused on the one Law of Attraction and almost totally ignored the other 10 "forgotten" cosmic Laws that are also needed to make attraction work.

The Law of Sacrifice is described by Bob Proctor like this: "The Law of Sacrifice is about discipline. Everything has a price. Are you willing to pay it to get what you want? Most won't."

Yes, that's right--most won't. Some people are just too lazy to do the work that it takes to go after what they want. Many others are afraid of failing. Still others just don't have the will to persist if something doesn't come to them overnight.

But one thing we see everywhere: most people are not willing to pay the necessary price to live their fantasies and achieve their dreams, regardless of whether or not they are conscious of the Laws.

If you want to have a lot of money and decide to use the Law of Attraction and the other Laws to bring it into your life, do you think that all you have to do is close your eyes and spend a half an hour a day fantasizing about having buckets full of hundred dollar bills? You can attract this money--but you're going to have to work for it. The Laws do not permit you to have what you don't earn.

Now, it's true that maybe the way the Universe gets you that money is through a seemingly "effortless" coincidence or gift. Maybe you'll find out that your uncle was ill and died, but left you $500,000 in tax-free life insurance proceeds because he liked you. But, if this is the kind of way in which your money comes to you, I guarantee you this: your work starts

    If placing a dollar in a bouncer’s hand could get a better seat at a concert, the spare change wouldn’t be very hard to part with, would it? Unless the individual were extremely thirsty and needed that dollar to buy a drink, it most likely wouldn’t happen either. Using a larger bill, such as a twenty, would give a real shot of making that wish come true; which is exactly what Tom Chiarella explained throughout his article “The $20 Theory of the Universe.” As a man who considers himself as a “twenty-dollar millionaire,” Chiarella really sets the bar high for a piece of paper that most Americans carry with them daily. A little caution and advice can go a long way with this theory, though, such as knowing that a twenty-dollar bill cannot be used as a ticket, will not buy everything, and is better spent on a person than a possession.…
