Oh my, the time has finally arrived for me to host this carnival. I’ve been excitedly anticipating seeing the posts that would be submitted for this theme!
I imagined writing something clever about “a picture being worth a thousand words”…
I imagined having a difficult time deciding which posts to feature because they ALL fit the theme…
Yet as I began to browse through the entries, I realized that I might not get any to feature; that is, there may not have been any entries that fit the theme.
In fact, I noticed that most of the posts not only didn’t fit the theme, they didn’t even have one picture in their posts!
I was quite disappointed. I had imagined all sorts of images creatively related to the Law of Attraction! And I must admit, being a stay-at-home-mom with homeschooled kids, I figured this theme would save me a lot of time.
Usually it takes me two or three days to read through the Law Of Attraction Carnivals, and I certainly don’t read every submission. This time I had to read the submissions - more than 25 (and counting, as submissions can be made through Monday) - and write about them as well.
Images would have been a lot easier for me!
Edward, who owns the Carnival, told me that I had free reign to include whichever posts I felt best fit with this edition. As I read through the entries, I heard some cackling in my head, as apparently a little dictator in me was excited to wield some power:
Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha… this one doesn’t make it in… neither does this one… mwa-ha-ha…
But I stuck that little power-hungry guy back in his corner and decided to include as many as I could into the Carnival - even if it took some stretching.
So here we go…
RIDES

Mike at Spooky Action with The Key To ‘The Secret’ In One Picture - This is my favorite entry of them all! I am grateful he left a link to this post in the comments of my reminder post, or else it wouldn’t have even made it in (thanks, Mike!).
Zoe at Law of Attraction for Inspired Living brings us Law of Attraction in Action: synergy and symbiotics - I’d personally like to hear the story behind this set of photos, to understand it better. Still, Zoe applied the theme to her post and I appreciate it very much (though you can share the story with us if you feel drawn to, Zoe!).
Melanie at Be Alive*Believe*Be You didn’t submit this entry, but I was hoping she would (or that somebody else would submit something similar). Then Edward mentioned I could add things I had found elsewhere, and I knew immediately I would find a post of hers that would fit well. Please check out Melanie’s journal pages at Powerful Intimacy.
Michelle at Conscious Destiny didn’t submit this next entry, either, but the moment it came to my email box I knew I had to link to it somewhere in this edition. Check out her video about how to create a treasure map - in 2 minutes (sped up) - at 1,2,3 Treasure Mapping.
The photo above is a treasure map I created back in July. My plan is to do a bunch of little ones like that one (it’s done inside of a CD case) according to the areas of the feng shui bagua and place them up on my wall in that same fashion.
For the next part of the Carnival, I am going to list all of the submissions which fit into any of the categories from previous Carnivals, in no particular order. Because I’ve already said so much
, I’ll leave out the synopsis of each post.

These last submissions don’t seem to fit in any of of the themes from the past carnivals, but would be great themes for future carnivals!
Words
Raymond from ZenChill’s post about Switchwords, was interesting, particularly because I know so many people who have used them successfully. I’ve even taught my kids REACH to good effect.
Attention
I think that Bert’s focus on attention would make a great theme for an upcoming carnival!
Lorraine’s post Power of Attraction - Luck or Brilliance? fits well here or in the next category.
Beliefs
As Alex states, everything happens to use because of what we believe. Here, he shares about what he believes - it’s very inspiring.
How NOT to use LOA
I’ve seen a few posts of this style and always find them a useful twist; I believe a whole carnival could be dedicated to this theme.
Check out Anastasia’s post 5 ways to fail with the Law of Attraction for an idea of what I mean.
That sums up this edition of the Law of Attraction Carnival. If your submission didn’t make it in, I apologize - I truly tried to find something in everybody’s post that would speak to some aspect of LOA.
Remember your power. Feel your power. Embrace your power.
