Let me give you a case in point. My wife and I have a small plot of land that has been derelict for many years, which we wanted to bring back into cultivation. Its about 5 acres so it is too big to do on my own. We wanted the land cleared and ploughed.
We have a strong desire to cultivate the land and to earn some money from it. In fact the land is part of my wife's deceased parents' farm which has been divided up between her and her brothers and sisters. So our desire was strengthened by the wish to return this part of the farm to productive use.
I envisaged the lines of neat furrows in the good earth. I could see in my mind's eye the big blue New Holland tractor going about its work. I could hear the sound of its powerful diesel engine and I could smell its exhaust fumes.
I had faith that the land would be plouged and I was grateful for it being done.
The trouble was, although the ploughman had agreed a price, he just would not do the job. he was always just finishing off a job and would be with us in a couple of days. This had gone on for weeks. The ploughman was not answering our phone calls and the end of the planting season was upon us. If we did not get the land ploughed very soon we would miss this year's crop.
The wife was all for giving up, but I continued to apply the principles of the law of attraction and maintained my faith that we would receive the results we wanted.
Just after 7am this morning we were awoken by the telephone ringing. It was a call from my brother-in-law, who farms the adjoining land, who called to say the ploughman had turned up and was ploughing the land as we spoke.
We hurried to our plot of land. There was not one, but three bug blue New Holland tractors busy clearing the land ready for ploughing.
Watching the ploughment going about their work my wife commented that although we had missed the planting season for our chosen crop, she had decided to plant other crops. Ones with a shorter growing season and a better resulted on investment.
Our temporary setback resulted in us receiving something better than expected. All thanks to the law of attraction.
