Lottery and Law of Attraction

Posted at 9:17 am under Law of Attraction, Prosperity & Abundance



You can’t use the law of attraction to win the lottery – or can you? Many law of attraction experts say no, it’s not possible. Have you ever questioned this assertion?

Below are some common “myths” about using the law of attraction to win the lottery, and a differing perspective that may help you make up your own mind on the matter:

Myth #1 – Wanting to Win the Lottery is Selfish

You’ve probably heard the “gurus” say that wanting a large jackpot is a selfish goal, and some of them even say that wanting a lot of money from any source is selfish. You should spend all of your time giving to others, not worrying about what you’re getting in return. I think we can all agree that generosity is a good thing, but that doesn’t mean wanting financial security is wrong, either.

Truth: ALL Goals are “Selfish”

If you want to obtain a better paying job, that’s selfish. If you want to attract your soul mate, that’s selfish. If you want to receive anything for yourself, technically it’s a selfish goal, right? Even so-called “selfless” goals aren’t completely selfless if you stand to gain anything at all, even just a good feeling about helping someone or contributing to the world in a positive way. You’re still getting something from the exchange.

Myth #2 – The Universe Won’t Give You “Something for Nothing”

Another argument about the lottery and law of attraction is that you can’t get something for nothing; the universe just won’t support those desires. You have to give something of value if you want to receive something of value. But haven’t you given value and not received anything in return? And haven’t you received something of value without giving anything first? I know I have!

Truth: The Universe Gives You What You ASK For

Here’s the funny thing; if you believe you can’t get something for nothing, nothing will come unless you give. But if you believe that the universe simply answers your requests, it probably will. I hope none of those experts have ever accepted a gift, or a helping hand, or a kind compliment – that would be getting something for nothing, oops!

Personally I find it hard to believe that the universe is sitting up there with a calculator, tallying up how much I’ve given and received in my lifetime, and deciding whether I’m “worthy” of receiving something else. I ask, and I receive. Ask, and receive. Ask, and receive. Oh yes, I give plenty too, not because I’m hoping to receive more, but because it makes me feel good to give – but even that good feeling means I’m receiving something.

Myth #3 – Others Have to Lose for You to Win the Lottery

Another common myth is that there is only so much money to go around, and if you win a jackpot no one else can win. Ironically, the same experts who say this also keep telling people that we live in a truly abundant, limitless universe. Which is it? Either abundance is limited or it’s not – I choose to believe it’s not.

Truth: There is More Than Enough for Everyone!

It’s true that if one person wins a jackpot in a specific game on a specific day, no one else can win that jackpot (except for games that allow multiple winners). But is that the only jackpot in the world? And don’t most games also have smaller prize amounts that people can win? No one has to lose so others can win. There are thousands of different lottery games and millions of prizes that can be won. Some of the games are repeated daily, some bi-weekly or weekly, and new scratch games are released constantly. There are more than enough prizes for everyone who wants to win.

Winning the lottery with the law of attraction may seem like an impossible dream, but once you understand how our abundant universe works, you realize that it’s just as possible as any other goal you set!
