The Flamingo lost her business, lost her house, her spouse left her and even came down with a major illness. Just a few years later, she was able to turn everything around and build her empire from nothing. At her photo shoot for her cover spot she was asked, “What’s the secret to your success?” She took a breath and said, “I maintained a positive mental attitude. Bad things will happen to your business and in life, but if you hold true to the Law of Attraction and put positive thoughts and beliefs out into the Universe.”
Lesson: The law of attraction is the belief that “like attracts like” and that by focusing on positive or negative thoughts, one can bring about positive or negative results. One of the most popular books to look at this ideal is The Secret but it is not a new concept.
