How to Manifest Good Behavior

The Law of Attraction

The Law of Attraction, part of the New Thought philosophy, states that whatever you focus on will necessarily manifest in your reality. It explains that when you focus on positive things, those things will come to fruition in your life, and when you focus on negative things, you’ll attract more of those.

This is a law accepted by the spiritual community as the governing rule of the universe. For others, it’s simply a different way of phrasing that “like attracts like”. I like to think of it as the cousin of the self fulfilling prophecy. Whether or not you’re into spiritual jargon, I believe that living with the idea of this law is truly helpful to peaceful parenting.

The psychological explanation for how this might work is pretty clear when we break it down… when you focus on a particular thing, you begin to skew your perception towards that thing, seeing signs of it everywhere.

If you’ve ever dyed your hair, gotten pregnant or bought a bike, you’ll know what I mean – you start seeing shades of blond, or baby bumps or handle bars everywhere! When you’re focused on something – on anything – more of it appears because, like a magnet, you’re attracting more of that thing into your life (or if you prefer, because you’re now conditioning yourself to see more of that thing).

In parenting the effects are doubly intense, and can quickly spiral into a (sometimes vicious) cycle. If you’re focused on your child’s bad behavior, say, then you’re likely to perceive more of it even if there isn’t really more of it in reality, but you will eclipse the good behavior or exaggerate the bad behavior because of your focus. Life and people live up – or down – to our expectations. And so when we’re expecting the worst of our children, they fully deliver. They have to.

Then, when we perceive that ‘bad behavior‘ we use at is further evidence to justify our original thought, that the child behaves badly. Here’s the proof! Thus strengthening our original focus, and beginning the snowball effect that gets us stuck with one rigid thought pattern.

How can we break this cycle?

We use the powerful idea of manifestation.

Manifestation  means that we deliberately take time to focus on the things that we want. The Law of Attraction will bring forth the things we focus on, right? So if we focus on connection, on pleasant behavior, on joyful times, we will begin to experience and attract more and more of those. Sounds good, huh?

If this is sounding hokey to you, I get it. But who cares? This thing really works.

How Do You Manifest Better Behavior? 

In the video above, I guide you through a short meditation to get you started. In the meantime, here are some ideas. Take a few minutes to break away from the screen, the chores, the mindless thoughts, and cultivate a space for the following thoughts:

  • What do I so appreciate about my child?
  • What am I so grateful for in my child?
  • In what ways am I a wonderful parent?
  • In what ways do I fulfill my child’s needs, just perfectly?
  • What do I love about my child’s appearance? Behavior? Character? Personality? Goals? Dreams?

Focusing on these questions a few times a day will begin to trickle into our brains to become a new thought pattern. Positive psychology backs up the idea that optimists are happier, healthier and live longer. I’m pretty sure they’re far more peaceful parents, too.

 

Do you use manifestation in your parenting life? Have you seen it work?

Now look, we’re all tired of the over-inflated results that course creators are flaunting on the interwebs. We’re all suspicious of online courses actually delivering on all their bloated promises. So if you think, “Bah, just another expensive course I don’t need” - I feel you, I do. I take the same wary approach when buying new programs. ⁣

But that’s why I want to share real human beings from all walks of life who have actually been through this course and received meaningful and priceless renewals in their relationships. ⁣

Like Chelsea, who remarked: “When I joined Parent in Love, I was ready to give up on my marriage. Today, my marriage has had a complete overhaul! It's practically a different marriage altogether.”⁣

Or Tanya, who reported: "This course has ABSOLUTELY TRANSFORMED our marriage, our family life, and my own personal growth journey! We still fight, but the fights are fewer and we tend to make up quicker and in front of the kids now!"⁣

And here's what Jonna said: "I have tools that give me hope and I know how to start resolving our conflicts. I have started to notice how my own shift of thoughts changes the whole atmosphere in our home, not only between me and my hubby but with the kids also."⁣

Ever find yourself waiting for your partner to change? Sometimes, it feels easier alone. ⁣

As much as you want and need the support - I know sometimes it can just feel easier to run your home on your own. ⁣

No one criticizing. ⁣
No one judging. ⁣
No one commenting. ⁣
No one watching. ⁣
No one adding to your to-do list with their needs.⁣
No one irritating you.⁣

Ah. Bliss. ⁣

But did you ever have these thoughts only to then think: "Yikes! That's not really what I want, is it? What's wrong with me? What's wrong with us!?"⁣

And what has waiting for your partner to change gotten you so far? ⁣

Stop waiting... ⁣

You deserve to have a happy marriage, and your kids deserve to have happy parents. ⁣

And don't wait on your partner, because the Parent In Love program is DESIGNED to be done alone - so that YOU can focus on what YOU can change: yourself.⁣

Your partner will necessarily be affected by the changes you make - because that's how relationships work, we're intertwined like that. ⁣

So TAKE A BREAK trying to change your partner right now, and finally, start to see some real transformation. ⁣

Psst... Your partner doesn't even have to KNOW you're doing the program - not that I'm suggesting you hide this from them, especially if you two are used to discussing financial investments you make - but I DO want you to know that many members have gone through Parent In Love WITHOUT letting their partners know about it. ⁣

And what happened? ⁣

Well, typically their partner would suddenly begin to NOTICE a profound (wonderful!) shift in their relationship and wonder "what's going on?!" ⁣

If you really want to take this program but you're struggling to work through their concerns, especially about the $ investment, I've provided scripts to help you have those important conversations with confidence. ⁣
