The Law of Receiving

The Law of Receiving is one of the 11 Forgotten Laws.  If you have heard about the Law of Attraction or seen the movie, you may have been disappointed with the results, because the movie does not go far enough.

Basically, the movie is a watered down version of a technique that has worked for hundreds of millionaires and can work for you, too.  The focus of the movie is on the power of positive thinking, which is important.

Thinking positively on a consistent basis attracts positive things into your life.  But, it becomes difficult to think positively when you see your world crashing down around you.

One of the steps that are barely mentioned in the movie has to do with the Law of Receiving.  There are many ancient proverbs and old sayings that have their roots in this law.

Ask and you shall receive.  As you sew, so shall you reap.  The more you give, the more you get.  You can probably think of others.

Being charitable is not something that we do simply because it is the right thing to do.  We are also well aware that what we give, we will get back, multiplied over and over again.

It’s one of the 11 Forgotten Laws, as mentioned above.  There is no single law of the universe that is more important than any other.  We need to be aware of how the universe works at all times.  Otherwise, we will fail.


The Law of Attraction, as you may or may not know, has to do with like attracting like.  Good attracts good things.  Positive thoughts attract positive things.  It’s really quite simple.  Once you get in the habit of living your life this way, it becomes second nature.

Another of the 11 Forgotten Laws is the law of supply.  Learning that one and applying it in your life will allow you to achieve your goals more quickly than you ever believed possible.  Olympic champions have used the rule to break their own records and win, time and time again.

Once you learn everything that there is to know about the Law of Attraction, the Law of Receiving and the other 11 Forgotten Laws, you will start to see changes that seem almost magical.  It will be impossible to be negative, because your life just seems to keep getting better and better.

There are people that downplay the importance of the Law of Attraction or talk about how it didn’t work for them.  It’s not that those people are trying to prevent you from advancing.  It is simply that they did not know all of the facts.

The Law of Receiving may have been the thing that was missing from their lives.  Or, it could have been any one of the other 11 Forgotten Laws.  It isn’t always necessary to implement all of them into your life.  You could experience some success just by taking advantage of the Law of Attraction.

But, if you want everything that this life has to offer, you need to learn to use the Law of Receiving to your advantage.  It may be better to give than to receive.  But, the people that say that have probably experienced the abundance that comes from giving.

I Do Not Choose to be Common

It is my right to be uncommon--if I can.
I seek opportunity--not security
I want to take the calculated risk:
To dream and to build, to fail and to succeed.

I refuse to barter incentive for a dole.
I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence;
The thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of utopia.

I will not trade freedom for beneficence
nor my dignity for a handout.

I will never cower before any master
nor bend to any threat.

It is my heritage to stand erect, proud and unafraid;
To think and act for myself, enjoy the benefit
of my creations and to face the world
Boldly and say,
This I have done.
