How Is Lack Formed?

In my last article we explored the ways the Law of Attraction works to create your life, including your financial situation. You now know that your thoughts, emotions and beliefs have the power to attract a more abundant lifestyle – or more lack.

What is lack and how does it appear in your life, anyway?

Lack is the condition of not having something. In other words, lack is the ABSENCE of something. But the absence of exactly “what” may surprise you. Lack is not the absence of money, or health, or love. Those are just the symptoms of lack.

At its core, lack is simply the blockage of ENERGY.

EVERYTHING IS ENERGY! When you experience lack of any kind, you are cutting off the natural flow of energy through your life. This can affect much more than your financial situation. In fact, you may notice that when you lack one thing, you usually lack other things too. Your relationships may be more strained or distant; you may experience poor health, lower energy, financial difficulties, or even appliance or vehicle breakdowns. None of this is a coincidence! When you block the flow of abundance, it can manifest in many different ways.

How does this blockage get started? By focusing on what you do not have, or what you do not want. Though it sounds like a bad joke, lack is formed when you focus continuously on lack!

Every time you worry about your financial situation, agonize over a shortage of money, or feel stressed about your bills, you attract the experience of lack into your life. The more you think about things and experiences you don’t have, the more you’ll attract an absence or blockage of the things you want.

This creates a nasty cycle that you can remain stuck in for years! Focus on lack, create more lack, which makes you focus even more on lack, which creates even more lack . . . and on it goes indefinitely!

It gets even worse too, because focusing obsessively on the lack in one area of your life can attract lack into other (even unrelated) areas of your life too. Next thing you know your entire life is in a major funk and you have no idea how it got so bad.

If you’re stuck in one of these funks right now, don’t worry! Turning it around is a simple matter of identifying the things you’re doing that are creating more lack, and learning how to focus more on abundance – which we will cover in detail in the next few installments of this course.

For starters, did you know that there are very specific thoughts and emotions that attract lack? It’s true! I’ll be revealing them in my next article.
