Similar thoughts attract each other
In the thought-world also, the great law “Like attracts like”, operates. People of similar thoughts are attracted towards each other. That is the reason why the maxims run as follows: “Birds of the same feather flock together,” “A man is known by the company he keeps.”
A doctor is drawn towards a doctor. A poet has attraction for another poet. A songster loves another songster. A philosopher likes another philosopher. A vagabond likes a vagabond. The mind has got a ‘drawing power’.
You are continually attracting towards you, from both the seen and the unseen sides of life-forces, thoughts, influences and conditions most akin to those of your own thoughts and lines.
In the realm of thought, people of similar thoughts are attracted to one another. This universal law is continually operating whether we are conscious of it or not.
Carry any kind of thought you please about with you and so long as you retain it, no matter how you roam over the land or sea, you will unceasingly attract to yourself, knowingly or inadvertently, exactly and only what corresponds to your own dominant quality of thought. Thoughts are your private property and you can regulate them to suit your taste entirely by steadily recognizing your ability to do so.
You have entirely in your own hands to determine the order of thought you entertain and consequently the order of influence you attract and are not mere willowy creatures of circumstances, unless indeed you choose to be.

Making Decisions
Often it’s easy to help others make decisions because we are more objective when we’re not completely emotionally involved.
So if you want to get good at making your own decisions, get good at being objective.
Learn to step back from the situation, mentally and emotionally, to gain a better perspective.
Then you’ll know what’s best for you and what decision to make.

Your Inner Artist
Try seeing things from different perspectives. Look for notable things to wonder at, maybe the tiny detail or a big panorama.
Then engage your inner artist in what you do and turn everyday actions into an artistic expression.

Detachment
* In life we get attracted and become attached to a particular object, person, relationship or situation.
Attachment seems to be the normal state of our living experience. We seek it without a second thought.
Is attachment a desirable state?
When a person develops a strong attachment, he is likely to become sorrowful when the attachment is broken or diminished. His emotional and mental state suffers. The broken hearted, the vindictive behavior, the hatred, the jealousy and sometimes suicides are the result of broken attachments.
It is a risky business to make the happiness of others our total happiness; to experience the difficulties of others as our difficulties. We should not build our life to such an extent around someone else’s life or any object so that when anything goes wrong we cannot function or we fall apart.
It is healthier, stronger and much more in wisdom to love everything and everybody, play our roles and perform our duties to the maximum with everybody and still remain detached.
We will be able to provide more help to others when we ourselves are strong from within.
