Maybe you have heard of the ‘Bucket of Crab’ mentality. You know the kind of mindset that says “if I cannot have it, neither can you.” It is a form of invalidating someone else’s success by pulling them down to their inadequacy. It sometimes gets expressed by a friend or family member who does not approve of or doesn’t want you striving for a greater achievement or going beyond things that are usually the norm for a culture. Everyone’s been there.
It is the same in a tribal mentality. The tribe is used to serve and keep the culture in a sustained state of relative safety. Each member has an explicitly defined and extremely important role and function. If you wanted to go beyond (as is our very nature) you literally risked the safety of the tribe. You’re taught: “I cannot expand past what the tribe teaches, otherwise I would be cast out and experience certain death”. You’d be exiled and not given food or water and without another tribe for many miles.
However, you were designed to create. Your inherent nature is to go beyond, express, want, and manifest. Then go for another fun thing or dream to fulfill. I read that prior to reaching five years of age, they have been told the word ‘No’ over sixty thousand times! It seems that our nature and our cultural values are in conflict with each other.
It is no wonder conflicting beliefs, critical inner dialogue and fear of success haunt us most of the time. It has been battered into our programming. The psychological phenomena is known as cognitive dissonance. It’s like static from your head when you have many conflicting thoughts at the same time. This dissonance gets uncomfortable and wants a solution. It gets solved in one of two methods. Either by falling back on old, known beliefs, or by allowing yourself to let go of the old to strive for a new level. A Law of Attraction Coach can help you completely change your experience with expert life coaching.
It’s no wonder with the programming we have adopted that it can feel so hard to create any effective change. You see, it is not your fault. Do not feel bad and heap more negative judgements on yourself. You are not to blame. Law of Attraction Relationships are incredibly rewarding and fulfilling beyond your wildest dreams! Think of a partner who has every quality you have ever desired in a lover.
It is not your fault, but you owe it to yourself to grab your power back. You’ve always had the ability to choose who you are and control that. Your mind is attractive. And even more powerfully, your mental monologue in conjunction with emotion are creative and attractive. Stare the inhibiting programs in the face and boldly declare another possibility for yourself. You were meant to thrive and create. You have the confirmation by the Universe. Relationship Attraction has never been more powerful as a result of the discovery of the Law of Attraction.

Five Things To Stay Away From When Dating.
1. Competitive activity. A Date isn’t the time to compare yourself, your Ex-, your achievements, with his or hers.
2. Skill. Wanting to prove how good you are at being an enjoyable partner is too much work and it will show.
3. Chance. Recall that you wanted to be on this date. In the end, chance isn’t a factor.
4. Endurance. A date is not a contest to find out who will outlast the other in being entertaining and amusing.
5. Rules. Stone-set rules become the end for new possibilities.
Five Practices to Engage in While on a Date.
1. Play. Though these might sound simple, I will bet a lot of you don’t look at dating as a playful exercise. Remember a time when you were the innocent child playing in the sand? How perfect was that? No place to go, nothing to prove. Simply muddy fun! Look for ways to go into your date with having fun as a first priority. Even if your date is a serious type. Make it your game to look for fun. You don’t need to see him or her in the future if they can’t be easy-going and have fun. Using the Law of Attraction is amazingly helpful for Relationship Attraction, and is not difficult to understand.
2. Laugh. A cousin of Play, laughing is the easiest infectious way to release joy. Prior to going on any date, especially a first date, tell yourself that you’ll meaningfully search for reasons to feel good and laugh. Smile a lot. At the waitress or waiter, at the host. Or put on a grin for no reason.
3. Listen. This is one of the most important ways to build a relationship with your date. Intentive listening means when you shut off the voices in your head and tune in to what the person on the other side of the table is saying. Of course, the critic in your head may be desiring to chime in for many reasons. You do not like the way he eats his soup. She’s always playing with her hair. Things like that can be distractions. Simply notice yourself being distracted and bring yourself back. Again, you don’t have to see them again if you do not desire to. This is an important practice, however, and it’s a building block for intimacy. You will want to use this practice in your extended relationship, so why not get your practice in now. Just so you know, you do not need to listen exclusively in the dating realm. You can create your own Law of Attraction Relationships today and increase your level of creative potential!
4. Eye Contact. Don’t simply make eye contact and bob your head. Engage in deep listening whilst maintaining eye contact. Practicing this is a wonderful display of your own generosity. And I can assure you, your generosity will return to you. If you need the support of a Law of Attraction Coach, by all means go get support! Having an unbiased listener to talk to can help you move off outdated patterns much more quickly.
5. Communicate. When it is your time to talk, strive for clarity and being heard. As you have given your time to your date, desire the same. You have not interrupted him or her while he or she has been talking. If an interruption happens, ask for the same manners. You can be polite and kind about it without causing it to be a problem. Simply kindly ask for what you want. Feeling confident in this takes a lot of pressure off your date. By doing this your date firmly knows what you prefer.
It does not matter if you’re 25 or 75 dating – simply like life – if approached as a fun game, one in which there are no losers, your date will go much more smoothly for everyone.
