Don't Think About the Purple Elephant

OK...so you know you just pictured the purple elephant in your mind.

That's the power of this book...you get what you think about; the all encompassing power of thought.

I absolutely love this book. I love the simplicity of the message and how powerfully Michael Losier presents it in this book. And the practical application of the material - that's what makes this book so powerful. Michael's great understanding and passion for this information is self-evident in the clarity of his explanation of how to apply the principles into your life.

In reading the book again, I was reminded of the power of words and thought. Particularly when Michael talks about the words Don't, Not and No. "Don't be late", "Don't worry", "I'm not going to eat chocolate cake". Well, the odds of that are slim; all I'm going to think about is chocolate cake.

It's vibration...you attract what you think about, whether positive or negative. After reviewing this lesson, I realized I'm often using these words and, as predicted, what I'm saying don't, not and no about has shown up in my life.

What a simple, yet powerful change to make. To be conscious of our language and take a stand to focus solely on what we want, not what we don't want.

I particularly love this book because it's not just about intellectualizing the material, but rather about applying the information. Actually using and applying this information to get what we want.

I guess the reality is, if we are committed to getting significantly better results we must commit to taking the simple actions laid out in this book. By following through with the exercises and taking action. By completing the clarity through contract exercises, formulating our Desire Statement and practicing allowing each and everyday...that's when the power of this book is demonstrated; in the results you achieve when you follow through with the exercises.

I've had the honor of seeing Michael speak several times. Each time I learn even more about the application of this material and have used the law of attraction to bring to me exactly what I desire. Unfortunately, when I am less than conscious about my thinking and language, I've also attracted exactly what I don't want.

I'm excited we are reading this book again, I deserved to remind myself of my own personal power and that the law of attraction is working at all times.
