Larry King Follow-up Show "The Power of Positive Thinking"

Hi, All

Last night Larry King hosted a follow-up to ‘The Secret’ broadcast, inviting top names in their industry:

James Ray, President and CEO of James Ray International, a multimillion dollar corporation dedicated to teaching individuals to create wealth in all areas of their lives.
Jack Canfield, the famed originator of the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series of books.
Dr. Joe Vitale is president of Hypnotic Marketing, Inc. and the founder and president of the Hypnotic Marketing Institute. Joe is also an ordained minister, a certified metaphysical practitioner and a certified hypnotherapist. He is also the author, among others, of the well-known book ‘Attractor Factor’.
Dr. George Pratt, chairman of psychology at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, California and co-author of "Instant Emotional Healing."
And, finally, Jayne Payne therapist, social worker and licensed chemical dependence counselor.

I didn’t see the first interview but this clearly continues discussion of what the law of attraction is and how it operates. Basically, we contribute to our reality with our thoughts feelings and actions. What we think and how we feel about any particular subject, whether its ‘good feeling’ or ‘bad feeling’ vibrate at particular frequencies that attract situations/people that match that frequency. We also act on those thoughts and feelings, often unconsciously.

For example, if we want to make a change in our life but think about and visualize all the obstacles to making that change and then feel bad, we will remain stuck and will keep taking the same action as before, creating no change. If we think about and visualize all the opportunities that will happen with the change, how good we will feel about it, we will move forward.

One thing that caught my attention was their advice that once you focus on a change with some of the steps they mention, release it to the universe. Do not keep thinking about it which may possibly negate it. Send it out with the positive intention and let it go.

Also we do not need to know ‘how’ something we want is going to happen or change, just think, feel and act ‘as if’ it has happened and the universe will do its part to work out the details. (I often get tripped up here obsessing about ‘hows’. This is very common to us all.)

The guests all practice techniques such as expressing gratitude and visualization, among others I’m sure. They also surround themselves with like-minded people.

I felt very optimistic that this program was on national TV in the USA especially considering that we use so much air time (television) to broadcast the negatives like wars and other violence.
