How Blogging Works the Law of Attraction

Combined with right, meaningful action and follow-through, blogs can serve as Invoices to the Universe. I can’t think of a goal or opportunity worth manifesting that won’t somehow require — or, at the very least, involve — other people.

Tagline | Mission Statement | Blog Title & Description
There seems to be an obvious pattern in the lives, challenges, missions, and paths of writers with blogs — your blog tagline or description, typically intended to orient your reader, is more importantly, a message to the self.

When seeking personal direction, often what you most need to hear — the most valuable advice or affirmation you require — will simply come out of your own mouth.

Most manifesting techniques, goal setting exercises, creative entrepreneurial endeavors, and self-improvement strategies feature journaling; blogging is, of course, a kind of journaling — with a super-powered, dialed-up scale, and critical elements of community and networking.

Blogs as Manifesting Tools

  • Words are the handles when thoughts become things.
  • Writing down your intentions is nearly always a component of Manifesting Techniques.
  • Sharing your intentions with others gives your thought-form a trajectory beyond your mind.
  • Publishing is literally a vessel for your thoughts and intentions — a form of immortality — a way for a piece of your spirit to exist beyond your personal experience and life time.
  • Assistance and opportunity most often come through networking with like-minded souls.
  • Blogs offer a capacity to dynamically reach and connect with others who share your intentions, on a global scale.
  • One of the best ways to channel information for yourself is to present a question as posed by another and allow your consciousness to respond, answer, and translate for that individual.
  • By contemplating and exploring on behalf of others, you inevitably make discoveries on a personal level.
  • By writing for an audience you organize your intentions with more conscious, careful, focused word choices than you might normally require when writing for yourself.
  • In your private internal dialogs, it is easier for habitually fearful, negative, damaging ways of thinking to persist; by presenting your ideas for public scrutiny, the additional perspective of others is more likely to identify, challenge, diagnose, or affirm your intentions.
  • Personal, private delusion doesn’t survive as well in the day light of the public arena.
  • Blogging invites a self-policing editorial filter which can catch weaknesses in your intentions; if a weakness survives your editorial filter, it is less likely to slip past your audience without being challenged or questioned.

This is by no means a definitive list or a line of thinking carried to completion — just a few of my observations about how blogging fits into the contracts I make with my thoughts, goals, and intentions. What have I left out?

What would you add to this list?

    I thought this was extremely extremely insightful and helpful. I really enjoyed the concept of a blogs description as a message ot oneself as well as the list of blogs as manifesting tools. Certainly added a depth to blogging I hadn’t considered before and as a spiritual blogger myself I find it a little ironic that it didn’t occur to me.
    Kudo’s to you Slade on this one, very original thought.
    Thanks….Christie

    Slade, it’s totally refreshing to view LOA from the blogging perspective. Like Christie, I believe I’m also one of those who’ve seemingly overlooked the importance of LOA in our own writing. Thanks for the nice reminder!

    Cheers,
    Ellesse

    When you read the words of other bloggers, you can also be kickstarted into creating a new (shared) reality.

    Slade,
    I’ve really been enjoying your outlook and your writings. When I first started blogging I was all over the place, unfocused and not sure which direction I wanted to head next - clearly a reflection of my life. I didn’t see that as a negative though, I used blogging as a tool to help me follow threads of thought and see which areas might become passions. I’ve started many many blogs over the last two years and I’ve loved the process. They have helped me focus, and yes, occasionally my audience has challenged me!

    Michelle,

    Thanks so much for saying so!

    For most of my life, the total body of my Writing was an overall big monster comprised of distinct, working journals and projects, each one like an organ functioning in a larger animal… Publishing was the very tip of that tail. Blogging has allowed that monster to swallow its own tail, and bring the rarest act of publication around to an on-going vital part of the Process itself.

    So much more of the Beginnings, the Middles, and the Ends have a chance to animate and mobilize the larger organism.
