Relax your mind. Meditate for 5 to 10 minutes. Doing this will increase brain power and have your mind at that relaxed state. This step is optional but recommended.

Be sure about what you want and when you do decide please don't doubt yourself. Remember that you're sending a request to the Universe which is created by thoughts and therefore responds to thoughts. Know exactly what it is that you want. If you're not clear/sure, the Universe will get an unclear frequency and will send you unwanted results. So be sure it is something you have strong enthusiasm for.

Ask the Universe for it. Make your request. Send a picture of what you want to the Universe. The Universe will answer. See this thing as already yours. See How to Visualize. The more detailed your vision, the better. If you're wanting that Nintendo Wii, see yourself sitting down playing a game on it. See yourself feeling the controller, playing your favorite game(s), touching the console. If there's that person you have a crush on, see yourself walking with them, touching or caressing the person, or even kissing the person. You get the idea.

Write your wish down. Start with "I am so happy and grateful now that..." and finish the sentence (or paragraph) telling the Universe what it is that you want. Write it in the present tense as if you have it right now. Avoid negation terms (see Warnings for more on this). Every day until your wish comes true, close your eyes and imagine your desire as if it's happening right now and see your imagination turning more clearer.

Feel it. Feel the way you will now after receiving your wish. You must act, speak, and think as if you are receiving it now. This is actually the most important, powerful step in using the Law of Attraction because this is where it starts working, and sometimes if you do this you don't feel like you need it anymore because you feel like you already have it! Therefore, the universe will manifest this thought and feeling, and you will receive it.

Show gratitude. Write down all the things the Universe has given you. Be thankful for what you already have and be thankful for all the things the Universe has given you. The Universe has done a lot of things for us. Paying the Universe back with some gratitude will motivate the Universe to do even more things and will draw more things into your life. If you were once bullied and that person stopped, that's one thing to be thankful for. If the person you're crushing on likes you back, or doesn't but they didn't send their lover out to hurt you, that's another thing to thank the Universe for. You should also thank the Universe for this process too. Showing gratitude will turbo boost the Universe to manifest your request faster.

Trust the Universe. Imagine an alternate dimension that is almost exactly like the real world but whatever you truly desire comes true in an instant. See yourself in that dimension, where whatever you ask the Universe for comes to you in an instant. Don't look for what you asked for; this is where people tend to mess up. If you have to keep an eye out for an event that manifests your wish, it's only telling the Universe you don't have it, and you will attract not having it. Be patient. Don't get upset if these things don't happen immediately. Don't stress the "how" of things. Let the Universe do it for you. When you take the Universe's job of worrying about the "how", this says you lack faith and that you're telling the Universe what to do when the Universe has far greater knowledge and power than human mankind.
Community Q&A
Do I have to focus on just one thing that I wish?
Dabbu
No. It is good to focus and feel abundant about the things that you want, but if you keep thinking about them all the time, then you will release thoughts of doubt, worry and the pain of not having it. The best thing is to focus on what you want for several minutes everyday and then release it and go about your day with gratitude.

How can I rebuild my life into a glorious one?
wikiHow Contributor
Begin by removing all negativity. No sadness, no shame, no guilt, no despair. Stop hurting your soul for past mistakes. Let go of everything. Don't let negativity penetrate your consciousness when the Law of Rhythm has got you down. Be happy to be alive. Life isn't about gaining, it's about learning.
How does the Universe respond when using the Law of Attraction?
wikiHow Contributor
When you have positive self-esteem and are completely apart from negative thoughts, then in return, the Universe gives you the things you want, the things that you are passionate about and the things you know you will get one day. If you can meditate everyday, you can achieve anything in your life, guaranteed. Always think positive.

How can I believe that what I want to attract is going to happen?
wikiHow Contributor
Remember that there is a difference between sending out a hope that something you'd like to happen will happen and putting in the appropriate effort or planning to ensure that something actually will happen. If you don't believe that something will happen, perhaps you're not willing to plan and work for it. You need a balance of both hope (to inspire) and effort (to achieve) for an outcome to be realized.

Would it be better to pray for what I need or to use the law of attraction?
Dabbu
Praying and using the law of attraction are the same thing. God and the universe are two different names for the same thing. Law of attraction is basically believing in what you want and so is praying. Both are based on your faith in the possibility of achieving what you want.

The Universe is only matter. How does something without life or a mind answer, give, or respond to me?
wikiHow Contributor
Matter is nothing but energy. Thoughts are also energy. Therefore, thoughts can become things.

I am scared that if I wish to have in my life, then will God say how unsatisfied is this person, I have given so many things still and she or he is demanding?
wikiHow Contributor
The Universe/God has an infinite and abundant reservoir of supplies, waiting to be delivered to the ones who sincerely ask for them. It doesn't judge anyone for asking for more, because, you are expected to live your life on this planet to the fullest. It is the limited thinking and the conditioning that we all have been exposed to from childhood which makes us fear the Universe/God; in fact it is not something to be feared at all. It's like the genie from the 'Arabian Nights' - Your wish is its command. Don't be scared. Go ahead ask for everything and anything that you want and believe that you have received them.

Can I ask for more than one thing at a time? Say three or four? Or will this be confusing the universe?
wikiHow Contributor
You can ask for as many things as you want, ambitious you. Write a list of all that you want. The more you believe that they are coming your way, the better you will feel. The better you feel, the more you are allowing and the more things that will come to you. The more you see these things coming to you, the better you will feel and it's an incredible avalanche of awesomeness. Truly believe and allow.
