Your LOA Stories: The Law of Attraction is Real
Sep 2nd
Today I received my first submission to “The Law of Attraction in Action” from Twitter friend L.Marie.
This is her story.
The Law of Attraction is Real
By: L.Marie
The Law of Attraction is real. I have always used the Law of Attraction in my life without knowing the terminology. Growing up I used visualization to obtain all that I desired. However, it wasn’t until two years ago, when I was given the book Ask and it’s Given by Esther and Jerry Hicks, that I learned the terminology and changed my views.
Using the Law of Attraction is not only about putting an idea out into the Universe; it is about taking that idea and matching it with your emotions. If you want to have more money, and you put the intention out there, but you are feeling fear or inadequacy, you will not have more money. It is all about your thoughts matching your vibrations and emotions.
I have had success with the Law of Attraction and I have had ‘failure’. I put failure in quotations because whatever you put out into the Universe will manifest, but it might not transpire quickly or the way you imagine. I have used the Law of Attraction for all things, love, career, money, and more. The most obvious success story I had using the Law of Attraction, was when I manifested four additional months of an internship stipend. When I graduated from school in May of last year, my internship stipend was supposed to conclude. A few weeks before I graduated I put into the Universe I needed money up until August. I didn’t know where the money was coming from, but I knew I was going to be fine. The next month when I looked in my bank account I had received a direct deposit from the school. Even though I was done with school, from May up until August, I received a direct deposit. I did not question it, because it was the Law of Attraction and I had manifested the money through my positive thoughts and vibrations.

Law of Attraction in Action
Sep 1st
Bright red flowers in my wealth corner
I am starting a regular segment on my Blog titled “The Law of Attraction in Action.” If you want to submit a short story (200 words) please email me on lisad@thelastdegree.com.
I am looking for your everyday stories of success in family, health, wealth, relationships, and career.
Today my little story is attracting wealth.
Problem: A few months ago I was oblivious about what do with my laundry. Being a busy mum and back to work, clothes were haphazardly piling up in the nursery and in the corner of my bedroom floor. At the time I saw no connection between the wealth corner in my bedroom with the beautiful red flowering painting and the dirty laundry piling up in the corner. Until the day the bill arrived. Another $500 bill from the hospital arguing I owed another excess fee for twin number 2. After phone calls with the hospital and private health trying to sort it out, I came to the conclusion it was another bill I would just have to pay.
Solution: As I was learning more about LOA , I requested for the bill to disappear and I started to also look around my house to identify anything amiss. It was the laundry. On suggestion of K from Connect with Spirit. I moved the laundry to its rightful place, the bathroom.
Result: The very next day I received a phone call. The bill was a mistake. I was told to rip up the bill as I no longer had to pay. Yippee! That works for me.

Affirmations for the newly converted
Jul 27th
Right now I am trying to share my work with the Law of Attraction and positive Affirmations with N. Unfortunately N really doesn’t like his job. I know he wants his own business, house and better income but I know poor N is stuck in focusing his attention in lack, worry, fear and the victim mentality. It is hard to be positive and working on asking the universe for all the things I want when your partner is focusing on the lack and is not too happy about it. Now N is a man and would not be seen dead reading one of those positive attraction self help books so I am trying to give him some exercises to get him out of the lack as I am sure he is attracting bad luck and I want that to go away fast. Yesterday for instance he received a fine from the council for littering! $300 fine, money just thrown away!
So tonight I gave him this exercise:
- Think and remember how it felt when something wonderful happened. It doesn’t matter what it is. It could be making the girls laugh, or when Moana said da-da last week or even driving your favourite car (he is mechanic after all). Whatever it doesn’t matter.
- How does it make you feel?
- Now hold onto that feeling of good and swap that memory to the thing you want. That is what you do. Request to the universe what you want but keep holding onto that feeelling.
He did entertain me with giving it a go. I am no expert but I am hoping if I encourage him enough it will be a good start.
The workshop that started me on my journey to gain some control over my life was delivered by K and Dr Michael at ConnectwithSpirit, The Art of Manifesting Workshop. What I love about these manifesting and subsequent meditation classes are the anecdotal stories people have. I am a sucker for reading Just Life magazine at the supermarket register or the hairdresser so I am always fascinated to hear these real life stories which K and Dr Michael have and how spirit and the Law of Attraction has worked for them.
Also during my research into the blog sphere I found a beautiful website, Abundance Tapestry, Manifest Abundance With Creative Self Alignment. Evelyn has some lovely posts on abundance, tips on how to overcome mental focus and blockages and anecdotal stories which I love. Her vision board is there too. Her post 7 Jazzy Ideas To Making Affirmations FUN is something I think will also work with N. I think the make-believe mini exercises will work and I know he has images of cars for his business on his tool box and in the garage. Now we can work on the exercise above and have fun writing blank checks out.
I saw this viral YouTube video called Jessica’s Affirmation. I know it has gone around the internet lately but it will brighten up your day and if you ever need an affirmation boost just watch this.
Last note….however later on TV tonight despite my best efforts, when a voluptuous lady bounced onto screen, N commented on the lack of boobs and if the LOA exercise will attract bigger ones into his life. Jokingly he then wholeheartedly gave my little exercise ago with a silly grin while staring into the universe. Hmm maybe that boob job will come early after all.
Laugh with me to the Last Degree
Jul 20th
I have always been an advocate for personal networking in my career and I have countless stories of the old adage, “It’s who you know not what you know” working new opportunities for me. My foray into online social media was first introduced with an ICQ account somewhere in the late 1990’s before the Live Messenger was launched. Then I joined Facebook over three years ago just for keeping in contact with my friends and kept it separate to Linked-In for networking with work colleagues. But it was only last week that when I started to research the relaunch of my blog did I open accounts with Twitter and Dig. That is only the start of it and now my head is spinning with information streaming through the social media networks. How does anyone keep track of it all?
To try to focus back onto my blog and provide something of value without getting distracted by the barrage of continual news, spam, jokes and interest. I signed up with hundreds of other bloggers to take part in the 31-Day ProBlogger and the SITS girls The Secret to Success is Support Build a Better Blog Challenge. Perhaps by connecting to this forum all the Helpful People in my Vision Board will come forward to help me develop and grow my blog?
I won’t post each task but yesterday was Day 1 and I am already late with my homework.
The task was to develop an elevator pitch for your blog. A pitch is not something new to me in my day job as I work with scientist and entrepreneurs who need to pitch their ideas daily to find funding and support. So I have had a brainstorm and come up with three. What do you think?
- Laugh with me to the last degree to create the life you want.
- Laugh with me to the last degree to realise your dreams today.
- Laugh with me to the last degree and see the law of attraction in action.
The theme being that no matter where you are in life, nothing can really stop you from realising your drea. I have chosen laugh as besides from the fact I am known for a distintive laugh but life is funny and I hope to always bring warmth and humour into my posts.
As mentioned in my earlier posts, this blog is a resurrection of an old blog titled Ski with me to the last degree to raise awareness for bipolar disorder when I was raising money and awareness for the Bipolar Expedition (hence the url The Last Degree). However as that chapter has closed I wanted to keep the blog and domain name and resurrect it into something new that was current in my life. In the eighteen months since my bipolar blog, I gave birth to twin girls and turned 30 but what has given me a framework and inspiration to my blog is a vision board and a growing list of all my hearts desires. This blog aims to capture that journey of the law of attraction in action.

Surprise dear “Its Twins”
Jul 19th
N holds me accountable for the “spontaneous” twin pregnancy. Perhaps it was my obsession with Sweet Valley High books or watching the movie The Parent Trap or living with identical twin sisters but nothing quite prepared me for the ultrasound technician to say, “Congratulations its Twins.” I had gone to the Queensland X-Ray department at 9 weeks on my own – pure curiosity I am afraid with a referral in hand. I should have waited for the usual 12 week scan but I was impatient. I am the type of person who searches Wikipedia for the plot before I watch the movie, read the finishing chapters of a book half way through and certainly not one to keep spoilers from The Doctor.
I am also not known for delicacy and can be depended on saying things at the most inconvenient time. “I’m pregnant” as N chokes on his Weet-Bix. Now in the car park I call N at work, “Surprise, Its twins” as stunned silence permeates through the phone. Tactful comments may also run in the family as not 6 months later as I am admitted into the maternity ward four weeks early, “Have fun” my father says as he leaves for the evening.
Right before all hell breaks loose.

At the back is a double shed for N and his cars and a pool to swim in at summer. A huge old tree stands tall ready for a new tree house which N is already making plans. We have a herb and veggie garden with sweet greens ready to be picked. Our home is warm and wonderfully ours to grow and be happy.
