What is the "Law of Attraction"?  

Hi
For scientific analysis you can go for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_Attraction
Isaac Newton proposed the three laws of planetary motion.
Newton's First Law
"Every body continues in a state of rest or in a uniform motion in a straight line, until it is compelled by a force to change its state of rest or motion."
Newton's Second Law
Change of motion is proportional to the force applied, and take place along the straight line the force acts.
Newton's Third Law
"To every action there is always an equal reaction - if a force acts to change the state of motion of a body, the body offers a resistance equal and directly opposite to the force."Film ... There is a 2004 American romantic comedy directed by Peter Howitt. And the name of that film is Laws of Attraction.
And for that you can go http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_of_Attraction
There is another concept on Human laws of attraction. People are attracted to those whose needs conversely match his or her own. And it is the "opposites attract" theory.

simply, thoughts become actions, if you think about going to make your bed, that's the first step to your bed being made. This happens often in our brains, which are constantly analyzing and working like well-oiled machines; A nasty mood can persue you all day. If you begin to pay attention to the power of your thoughts you will then be able to put your wants and intentions into solid thoughts, which is the first step to making them reality. It is said that once these thoughts are manifested into the universe they become possibilities that the universe will open for you.

Hello Tingtong.

There are different definitions of the law of attraction. Reeyan has very well explained one. On a more personal level, the law of attraction refers to a theory that whatever "signals" we send out into the universe, negative or positive, that is what will come back to us...what we will attract.

Send out happy thoughts, you'll get happiness back. Send out angry or negative thoughts, and that is what will come back to you.

Hope that helps.

Hi Tingy,

The law of attraction was discussed fully in the book –The Secret. There are some lines quoted from it in youtube—you can check on it. I believe in the law of attraction as is simply says—projecting and exuding positive energies to attract positive response and results.

There is something called Law of attraction. We all think, and there is not a single moment we are thoughtless. The state of thoughtlessness arrives very rarely in our minds. But, our minds are active always, even in sleep.

So, whenever we think, we are using some energies, and these thought forces are also energies. These energies are vibrations, and when we think positive or negative, this energy takes form as action, or it influences the object we are thinking about. All these energies carry magnetic forces. Our cells in the bodies also have magnetic forces and these forces also depend upon the nature of thought.

If you continuously think, life is negative, depressing, then, people around you will notice that your energy level is always depressing, and they will feel uneasy. If you are very happy, but you refuse to show it in your face or body language, but still feel inwardly happy, then, people around you will sense it very easily and you will notice their behavior is pleasant with you.

This is nothing but law of attraction. At the same moment, if you keep thinking that you want to smoke cigarettes, obviously you go to smoke, which means you are attracting a cigarette with your habit of thought energy.

Similarly, if you are able to buy the car you desire, you have naturally worked hard to buy the car, because you had the law of attraction for the car working unconsciously on your mind, and your mind has forced you to work so hard and save up, that you could afford it.

It depends how you want to use the law of attraction. If you want to meet a soulmate or lover whom you expect to have certain qualities, and also physical looks, you keep concentrating on that, all the time, and you will definitely meet that kind of person. That's because, you are sending out thought forces, energies, and they work on somebody, who has those qualities, and also, if you send thought forces that the person you love should also accept you as you are, and understand you perfectly, then the person who possesses the qualities you expect, and also has a good understanding nature, will be attracted to you.

It's all about energies, and we all work with energies, and our thought forces are the main reason why we act and live a life and plan a life etc....

Law of attraction does exist, and you can do you best to use it to make a very good life out of it.

What I understand of this is that, you attract what you think. Kinda like mind over matter. Sort of. If you think positively, exude confidence, or just think of what you want most, eventually you will attract it and get it. If you think negatively, negative things will happen also. It's just up to you what you would like to attract.
Basically its just you'll get what you want if you just think about it that much. You might also get the things that you dont want if you think too much that you dont wanna get it. It just explores the power of the mind. The mind attracts objects and people as long as we give it that much thought.

I sure hope that made sense.

Hi ting!
I am not aware about any such law, at least I did not study this law in physics, when I was studying. However, I did a research for you to check this law, you may please go this link and find out what it contains:

The Law of Attraction is based on the premise that your thoughts will create your reality so you may as well have positive ones! Whatever is created in the ‘real’ world was created in your mind first. The Law of Attraction is what the book and movie ‘The Secret’ is based on. If you focus on something over and over it will eventually manifest for you but there are a few ‘rules’ etc that one needs to adhere to. It is important to remember that our thoughts can bring to us what we don’t want as well so it pays to change the way we think, for example if you constantly think and say, “Gee, I’m broke...” you will attract more of the same, you should try turning it around by saying, “There is plenty for me, the Universe is abundant...’’ Or something like that...

I have a completely different view in this regard. Law of atraction is simple. But it has vast consequences. It is one of the main forces driving the universe. It means "Opposites attract each other and similar object repel each other." This law in meant not only for electric chatrges but also in real life. Man and woman have attraction towards one another. If we see everywhere what we have then we don't feel anything different. But if we see anything new then it grabs our attention.

Hello my friend tingtong Ji,
Well, beingArt/Literature student I am not an authority, but what my hubby explains me practically is taht'LAW OF ATTARACTION MEANS, LIKE POLES RPEL AND UNLIKE ATTARACTS' it means male will attarct to female and vice versa. This goes with theory of magnetism taught at high scool level.
May God bless You and have a great time.
