There has been an increase in chatter about the law of attraction since the release of the movie, the Secret.
Many people will proudly state “law of attraction” or LOA, when they get a parking space, a table without waiting at a restaurant, a green light at an intersection; and in the next breath deny or ignore that the unpleasant event is also a result of their same energy.
Whether you refer to what happens in your life as Law of Attraction, Law of Return, Karma, Synchronicity, Law of Reciprocity, Cause and Effect, The Golden Rule , Energetics, Ho'oponopono, etc - the bottom line is your responsibility. You are responsible for the choices you make and the results that occur because of the choices you make.
Whether you label the result as good or bad, whether you choose to enjoy the results or complain about the results – the results are based on the choices or lack of choices you make. If you are on your way to an event and you are running late, you are responsible for your choice of activities and behaviors that placed you enroute at that (late) time. If you then end up in traffic and an accident of someone else on the road has then slowed down traffic, and you are caused a longer delay in your travel, you are still responsible for being at that place, at that time. You are responsible for your reaction to the situation at that time. You are responsible for your choice of your next emotion, thought and action at that time. So at whatever time you finally arrive at your destination, it is not the fault of the traffic. It is all because of the choices you made.
This is where so many new followers to Law of Attraction let go. This is where many people go from taking responsibility for their thoughts, and choices of actions to blaming outside of themselves - the traffic, the other drivers, the weather, etc.
Remember – lets go back to the beginning. YOU made the choices of the behaviors that put you in traffic at that time. YOU were functioning either consciously or unconsciously.
If you are getting the results you enjoy in life, then continue doing the same things you are currently doing. If it pleases you to blame traffic for your choice of behavior, then continue to do so. Your choice.
“The definition of Insanity is doing the same things
and expecting different results.”

and expecting different results.”

In order to consciously gain the results you desire in life, you must first be conscious of your own thoughts and behaviors. These are YOUR thoughts and chosen behaviors. You be willing to be conscious.
Only from that a place of consciousness can you then see which thoughts, behaviors and habits you choose actually support you in moving towards your desired result. From consciousness, you can now take actions to keep those that you want to keep and change those behaviors that you want to change, in order to get a different result. When you choose consciously, you will see more results that move you in the direction of your desired results.

Greetings Simple Keys:
I enjoyed reading your post on "responsibility of Choice." It's a wholesome ability to do this. There are many who say, "What me take responsibility for someone else's [whatever]? The truth is that we are more connected to everyone and everyone else's [whatever] than we think. I first learned about this idea and practice from Hunbatz Men, a Mayan sage of Mexico, who used to come to our home and give inspirational talks when he lived in Brooklyn for a short time. He taught us that In La'kech, the Mayan words for "I am you and you are me,and whatever I do to you, affects me, and whatever I do to myself, affects you" is a way of life. If we take responsibility for our choices, as if they would affect others in a positive way, then we have secured the 7th Generation of Life that will succeed us. If we also take responsibility for the things that haven't worked out, for us or others, then we can clear from the negativity that ensued from the negative choice that were made, whether these were ours or someone else's negative choices for self and others. I do this clearing using the Hawaiian Ho'Oponopono Method of Problem Solving. For more info on that see my website: http://www.mindbridge-loa.com/joe-vitale.html
Keep doing what you do. It's inspiring to me, and I am certain to others everywhere. Thank you. Diana Gubiseh-Ayala

and if someone is looking for the book you mention on your website, they can get it through Amazon.com.
I ordered the Spiritual Cinema circle movies and I look forward to getting thjem every month. I make a friends night and we pot-luck and watch the latest movie and discuss how it might apply in our lives. It's a great source of solid inspiration.
