Using the Law of Resonance
Kenrick Cleveland
I heard an interesting story about the law of resonance that I want to share with you. The Law of Resonance is a very similar concept to the law of attraction, but has some distinct differences. The Law of Attraction, as is widely known, is the universal law that determines what you attract into your life based on what you're putting out there.
The Law of Resonance is more relational in character. It expresses the way in which two or more different things are linked. As an example, my transcriptionist was telling me a story about the law firm where she used to work.
She said, "I shared a desk with a woman who had been with the law firm for over a decade. She was the most negative, bitter, annoyed person I had ever met. She'd been working for the same lawyer the entire time and he was really negative as well and treated her badly. The worst part of the situation, as if if that's not bad enough, is that she never stopped talking, not for a minute, she just chattered away even when no one else was there listening.
"I was sympathetic at first and would give her supportive advice and suggestions to move her out of her negative mindset. Eventually, my own mindset started creeping toward hers and I caught myself complaining and becoming negative as the days, weeks, months, and eventually years wore on."
Okay, so say you are with someone eight or more hours a day for five days a week, or you live with someone whose energy is dark or pessimistic. If you are a fairly well adjusted, happy person, and you express your thoughts and feelings in a positive frame, even if there's a difficult task at hand, this other person will have an affect on you. If it's a situation where you have to deal with the person, don't have the option of changing jobs or kicking the mother-in-law out, then you will need to start doing what you can to protect yourself from the negativity of this person.
The Law of Resonance says that the relationship between the two individuals, especially over an extended period of time, will either raise up the energy of the negative one, lower the energy of the positive one, or result in a combination of both where they'll meet somewhere in the middle.
There are a number of things you can do to protect yourself from sinking to their level.
Of course, do what you can to mix more with positively minded people. But when you can't choose who you're with, realize that a negative resonance can actually sap the power of a positive resonance if you are inattentive and if the negative magnetism is stronger. If your positivity is stronger it won't be deeply affected.
So what happened between my transcriptionist and the secretary she sat next to? Well, eventually my transcriptionist, manifested herself a new desk on the other side of the office. She went to her office manager and explained the drain and was rewarded with a quiet desk alone near the library and felt a huge weight was removed from her workload.
