I Can’t Make the Law of Attraction Work
Why can’t I make the Law of Attraction work for me? This is the question so many people have when it comes to manifesting their dreams. They complain that they have tried to use the Law of Attraction, but they are still miserable, unable to manifest anything but more of what they do not want.
When The Secret came out, everyone and their brother was talking about the Law of Attraction. Everybody was suddenly using positive thinking to manifest their dreams. Unfortunately, many failed. This lead some to believe that the Law of Attraction was fake, just another scam to sell some books. Others blamed themselves, believing that the Law of Attraction is real, but just didn’t work for them. They felt somehow not deserving of what they wanted most.
Both these lines of thinking are wrong. The Law of Attraction is real and can work for anyone. It is not some newfangled idea developed by the self-help industry. It is an unchanging, universal principle that simply states ‘like attracts like’. More than 2000 years ago, Plato postulated “like tends towards like.” Almost the same thing!
You’re Using the Law of Attraction Wrong
Where the problem lies, is that most people are using this principle wrong. They think if they repeat “I have lots of money” over and over again and do some visualizations, that the Law of Attraction should manifest it for them. Nope! It takes a little more than just repeating what you desire.
The Law of Attraction is only one of 12 Universal Laws. These 12 Universal Laws each work together, in unison, to help us create happy and fulfilling lives. By focusing on one and ignoring the others, you will only see a small part of the picture. This is exactly why so many people are unable to make the Law of Attraction work for them. They are ignoring the other eleven principles.

What are the 12 Universal Laws?
The 12 Universal Laws are spiritual laws that are often associated with the Ho’oponopono practice. They have also been referred to in hermetic philosophy from as far back as ancient Egypt. These spiritual laws are:
1. Law of Divine Oneness
This law states that we are all interconnected. We are all one with each other, with all of nature and even with the Divine. This means that everything we do and think effects everything and everyone in some way, big or small. This awareness is a reminder that we can make a difference with our actions. What we do and think, matters.
How does this relate to the Law of Attraction and our ability to manifest? If we are one with everything, then we are also one with that which we desire. We are not separate from it, but connected to it already. We do not have to become worthy of it, we already are. It is a part of us. We do not have to change ourselves in any way to become aligned with our desires, but only have to remember that we are at one with them. We will automatically match vibrations and gain access to that which we are trying to achieve in our lives.
2. Law of Vibration
The Law of Vibration is where the term “like attracts like” comes from. Everything in the Universe vibrates at it’s own frequency. Things that are dense and heavy, like a mountain, vibrate at a low frequency. Things that are light, like a cloud, vibrate at a much higher frequency. The same is true of emotions. Heavy emotions like anger, depression and sorrow have a lower frequency. Happiness, love and gratitude on the other hand, have very high frequencies.
Something that is vibrating at a low frequency will attract things of the same low frequency. The same is true of something vibrating at a higher frequency. For example, have you ever noticed that when you are having a bad day it seems like everything goes wrong? You wake up late and are frantic, you then break your shoe lace while trying to rush out the door, and miss your bus. It also works in the opposite way. You wake up early, start the day in a great mood, make all your transit connections, receive recognition at work, come home to find dinner already made for you.
One way to look at it is to think of tuning into a frequency on the radio. If you are tuning in to the jazz station, you can’t expect it to play heavy metal. So if your frequency is low, you can’t expect to manifest a happy and abundant life. The good news is you can always change your frequency. Meditation and Gratitude are two simple ways to raise your vibrations.

3. Law of Correspondence
This law shows us that patterns repeat throughout the Universe. This is also true in our own lives. We all have patterns, and those patterns repeat unless we take conscious action to disrupt those patterns.
As an example, we all have that friend that dates the same type of person over and over again and wonders why their relationships don’t work out. Like that friend, most of us don’t recognize our own patterns and don’t know how to change them. We continue doing the same things and get the same results. We blame fate, luck or even the Universe, but forget to examine our own patterns. By becoming aware of our patterns we can change the ones that no longer serve us. We can consciously create a new pattern for ourselves. It all starts with awareness.
4. Law of Attraction
This is probably the most famous of the 12 Universal Laws. Numerous books and articles have been written about the Law of Attraction. Most of us know the premise of this law: Like attracts like. What we focus on the most is what we will attract. The key here is not thinking intellectually about what we want, it is believing it on a deep soul level. So, no matter how much you try to think something into being, if you believe something different, that is what you will manifest.
It is important to pay attention to your thoughts and beliefs. If you catch yourself thinking thoughts that do not mirror the life you are looking to create, change those thoughts. If your beliefs no longer serve you and the life you want, examine those beliefs and work towards creating new ones.
5. Law of Inspired Action
This is the law that most people miss when trying to manifest things in their lives. You can use affirmations, visualizations, and truly believe in what you’re trying to achieve, but if you don’t take inspired action in the physical world you will not be manifesting anything.
So what is inspired action? It is taking measures to make your goals a reality, but not just any action will do. Inspired action isn’t about just doing what you think you are suppose to do. It is taking action that excites you and makes you want to manifest that thing even more. Inspired action is being in alignment with your desire and acting on it creatively. The best way to take inspired action is to listen to your intuition. Act on those quiet whispers. They will always lead you to do the right thing.
6. Law of Perpetual Transmutation of Energy
This law states that the universe is in a constant state of change. Energy is always moving and transforming. It is never still, always adapting. Energy moves from one state to another. From energy, to physical form, to energy again, and so on.
What that means is, we can harness this energy and form it in any way we desire. By focusing our thoughts and beliefs we mold this energy into what we need. By raising our vibrations we help manifest that objective into the physical world.
The Law of Perpetual Transmutation of Energy applies to us as well, because, like everything else in the universe, we are also energy. We are always changing and evolving and have the power to become anything that we want to be.
The Law of Attraction is one small part
As you are beginning to see, the Law of Attraction is just one small piece of the puzzle. All twelve laws work together. If you leave one out, the creation process is stunted. It will be much more difficult to manifest what you want. Check back next week for the final six Universal Laws.

I did not know there were so many laws under the law of attraction. This was so interesting to read. Thanks so much for sharing!
Many people focus on the Law of Attraction, but all 12 Laws work together to help guide our lives.
Thanks for clearing this up! I feel like people talk about the law of attraction and peach about “affirmations” but what they are really doing is saying what they wish for without talking action to achieve it. It’s great to belong you are capable of something, but you have to be willing to work to get it.
Absolutely! Affirmations are great and can be life changing, but without inspired action they are simply an “I wish” list.
Very interesting perspective! Thank you for your thoughts!
Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment!
This is a really helpful and informative post as I wanted to know about this. Thank you for your explanation and tips. I am going to have to refer back to this.

Thanks for reading! I’m so glad you found it helpful.
This is really interesting, I had no idea about any of this!
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Wow, I learnt something. I found the Law of Correspondence very interesting as I related to that in my life. Thanks- very good read.
Thank you! I’m so happy I was able to teach you something. It’s great that you are able to recognize the patterns in your life. When we recognize the patterns we are able to choose which ones to repeat and which ones we want to change.
Really helpful post. I didn’t know the laws were this much. I just only knew about the law of attraction so it was nice discovering others.
Thanks! You’re not alone. A lot of people don’t realize there are 12 Laws. That’s why so many people have such a difficult time with manifesting what they want. 😊
Love this so much. Been reading and learning so much about manifestation and law of attraction and I didn’t realize how many laws were under it.
Such a great and informative post.
Thank you! I am so happy you enjoyed it.
An interesting post! I had no idea that there were that many laws of attraction! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for taking the time to read it! 😊
It’s so great that you put the law of attraction in context here among the other laws that it feeds into (and from). I think many people do think just repeating something will make it manifest, but fail to see how connected everything else it. Really great post!
I agree, many people miss the other elements of manifesting, especially inspired action. Hopefully this post and others like it, will help people learn how to manifest the lives they want. Thank you for the thoughtful comment!
This is super informative, I’m trying to manifest my dreams right now for the life I want and I had no idea how many levels there were to it, definitely taking note for moving forward.

You are very welcome!
I’ve never really known about the Law of Attraction until this post – these were great!!
I’m glad you like it!
This was an interesting read! It was nice to learn about all 12 Universal Laws in a way that was easily summarized and clearly explained. Thanks for the information. Great post!
Thank you for taking the time to read and comment! I’m so happy you enjoyed my post.
Interesting post. Just when I was thinking about manifestation from the perspective of my personal faith. I have never read anything on law of attraction, your post gives me a very good introduction and actually made me want to read more.
I will definitely save this and follow you to check your further saying about the topic..Thank you for sharing. All the best.
Thank you so much! I’m so glad my post spoke to you. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I’m always happy to help.
This is a topic I am very interested in. I will pin this so I can refer back to it! Very informative post!
Thanks! I’m so glad you were able to get something from it. It is an interesting topic.
This is such a helpful post. The law of attraction is something I’d love to get more into and make it work for me.
Thank you! Knowing how to use the Law of Attraction has been so helpful in my life. You will not regret learning how to use it more. 😊
I’m a huge believe in LOA. I think we need to use it to calm things down around Covid. It’s all people have been thinking about and talking about for 9 months now and it’s gotten so much WORSE. I think if people focused more on health and positive outcomes it would improve rapidly. Maybe that’s why the numbers are so much better in other countries – they aren’t as prone to panic about the situation.
You make a great point. What we focus on is what we create. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if more people focused on health and wellbeing.
This is really interesting, I didn’t really think about the other laws coming into play with the law of attraction. I’ve recently come into manifestation, so this has opened my eyes a bit more with it!
Thanks for sharing!

I’m so glad you found it interesting. Thanks for your comment Lozza!😊
This makes a lot of sense to me. I’m one of the persons who run to the bookstore to buy The Secret after hearing about it on the Oprah show. And as you said, I did it all wrong so I failed and was disappointed. Knowing about the other laws changes my understanding of how the law of attraction works and I can grasp how the other dimensions work together to manifest what we desire. I can’t wait to read the second part of this post. You just made me discover the missing pieces of my puzzle. This is really helpful. Thank you!

This is quiet expansive and the way you put it is articulate.Attraction law is wide and how you break it down makes it easy to practice.Thanks for your insight.
Thank you so much!
I think I’ve read your whole blog top to bottom haha but haven’t left comments on some! Perfect for me as I get to re-read some posts 🙂 As I read this, I had my manifestation playlist playing in the background – so perfect. I love reading your posts as a reminder of how the universal laws work. It reminds me to continuously project what I want and trust the process. Thank you for sharing, Tiffany xx

Awwww! Thanks Lynn! I am so happy that you like my blog. It means a lot!💖
I think it’s great that you have a manifestation playlist! I’d love to know what is on it.
Wow, I honestly knew very little before reading this post. I honestly feel like I know so much more – I love your posts for that! It sounds like there is a lot that goes into the laws of attraction, as opposed to what you referenced at the beginning with it being a quick and easy fix. Thanks for this post and information!
Awww thanks Alex! I’m so happy to hear you are getting something from my posts!!
