Will The Law Of Attraction Work If You Watch Too Much Television?

Being a parent I am always aware of how much television my children watch and for that matter how much I watch. I would say that they probably watch about two hours television each night. Far too much and I will need to address this. How much television does your family watch? An even more important question is - what are they watching?nnThe Law of Attraction states that whatever you focus on consistently will be attracted to you. This is a wonderful law if you are attracting positive thoughts, but what if you are not? What if you and your family are watching television shows that are all projecting negative thoughts? It really is something that you must consider if you want your family to achieve all the things in life that they deserve.nnIn society now we turn on the television and we watch whatever is on, we don’t even have to like what it is. We channel surf and have a variety of images and emotions entering our subconscious mind. It would be alright if those images were all uplifting and full of positive thoughts, but they are not.nnnTake the nightly news as an example, surely we should be letting our children watch the events that are occurring around the world? What is the role of the media? I will tell you why - it is to show sensational stories that are there to shock, get your attention and effect your emotions. The opening news stories are nearly always projecting a negative message - murder, rape, banks collasping, interest rates rising and it continues. Think about the definition for the Law of Attraction - whatever you focus on will be attracted to you. Do you want to be focussing on these stories?nnThe television shows that are littering our screens are CSI, CSI Miami, CSI New York, Cold Case, and they are all pojecting violence and negativity to the audience. You could change the channel and you might get a reality television show like Big Brother where you can watch appalling language and behaviour from the people on the show. Is this what you want your family focussing on a regular basis?nnIn between these programs are the advertisements. Is it a life insurance advertisement, a cough medicine advertisement or one for some type of sugary museli bar? Now if you focus on a cough medicine advertisement four or five times a night, do you think there might be a chance that you could end up feeling sick the next morning? What you focus on is what you attract into your life.nnI know the following example is not media related but it illustrates a point. Mother Theresa said that she would never attend an anti-war rally, but she would willingly attend a peace rally. She knew well before “The Secret” was released that you must be incredibly careful of what you put your focus on.nnIs the media’s role to enlighten your soul and fill your life with positivity? If your answer is no, then maybe your habits need to change.nn
