Law of Attraction and Faking it

The phrase “fake it until you make it” can be a real help when you want to change a habit and kick start a new behaviour such as working with affirmations and “pretending” you are abundant and so on.

We all, at some stage, need technique or method to get us going.

The fake it until you make it idea can work for many people as the mind does not know the difference between what is real and what is imagined.

For example, if I fake it till I make it with sessions of laughter, my body biology will shift accordingly and the cells pick up my laugher vibration and my body responds. That can be a help to get you to change your vibration.

However, there is a point where you have to check into your feelings so as to ensure that there is congruency with what is being said or thought with what is being felt. The Law of Attraction picks up your vibration or feeling rather than what you say or think.

So the faking bit is great to a point, however, the body or the feelings aspect of who you are needs to buy into whatever you are imagining or pretending. If you are affirming you are abundant and you are actually doing something about it like feeling grateful, giving to others, buying quality products and services (within reason) then those actions will affirm to your feelings that you are stepping up the vibration.

So what started as pretence has been matched by moving in the direction of what you desire and that faking aspect becomes a reality, over time.

If, however, you are affirming “I am happy, I am happy” a thousand times a day and you actually feel heavy and sad then this faking aspect may be a cover up for what really needs to be embraced, understood and released. The Law is obedient and picks up on what you are feeling.
Basically, the “truth shall set you free” even if it isn´t to your liking, however, there is no harm in kick starting something you want to bring into your life as long as you check in with yourself the truth of that situation through simple questioning and feeling out the way it is at that moment of personal inquiry.
