Castles and Buttons
By Mohammed | February 22, 2007I’ve known about the Law of Attraction for many, many years. Way back years ago I first read “The Science of Getting Rich”, “Think and Grow Rich”, “As a Man Thinketh” and “The Power of your Subconscious Mind” and many other books too numerous to mention. (Did I mention that I am a book addict? Have been since learning to read back in first grade).
I know that our thoughts create our lives. I know this absolutely without a shadow of a doubt. But sometimes just like the guy in “The Secret” who attracted “car parks” I like to play the game and test it out. Besides I really want to learn how to master that game of deliberate creation. Of course, I want to create my life just as I want it to be!
So a couple of days ago I was pondering. I have heard from a very wise source “that it is as easy to create a castle as it is to create a button”. So I’m thinking along “Castles and Buttons…Castles and Buttons” and I thought “I want to attract a button”. So I pondered some more and I thought of the fun of attracting a button for a little while and then I forgot all about it and went on with my life. Never thought of attracting a button again.
Well yesterday I had an appointment and as I was happily walking up the stairs and into the building I happened to look down and lo and behold there was a button! It was a pretty green button about an inch in diameter that said “Billabong” on one side. I saw it and my heart jumped into my throat and I thought “Oh wow, there is my button!”
Now it may seem silly to get so excited about a button. I mean after all it is just a button. But what that button represents is that this stuff that I study and believe in and watch movies like “The Secret” about works. It really works. It works every time.
I have the button to prove it! It now has a designated spot on my vision board. I can see it everyday.
Maybe I should start working on attracting a castle now!

Manifesting a castle shouldn’t be too hard. Find a beach. Take a couple of children with you. Surely, a sand castle is in your near future! And if you dig deep enough into the sand who know what you might find. Clams? I simply couldn’t resist commenting. I like your blog post.

Alright! I am dreaming of Lake Powell in May. (That would be the warmest and nearest and soonest!)
If I wait for the other lakes I’ll be looking at June +
I don’t live anywhere near an ocean. Sounds fun,fun,fun!
Thanks for stopping by. I’m happy you liked the post!

That sounds like so much fun. I’m going to go manifest me a button.

[...] I wrote about this before at Castles and Buttons. I conducted a small experiment to see if I could manifest a button. I did. It was fun and exciting, just a small thing but it brings me good feelings just to look at it. [...]
