In October, 2009 Betty put together and started her blog about the Law of Attraction working in everyday life, and her thoughts on the subject, at www.thelawthatworks.com In 2010, Betty added a separate web site, www.thelawthatworks.net, which also deals with the Law of Attraction; you can use the blog tab at the top to get to her blog. She personally maintains them both on a regular basis and continues to study the Law of Attraction and how it affects us each and every day. Betty’s first book, By the Grace of God, the Skin of my Teeth…and Friends, was published in 2007, and is about hanging on in the tough times. Betty lives in central Missouri, and enjoys traveling and reading in her spare time. Look for Betty’s next book, Say This, Not That in the early spring 2012.

About the Author
To my Mom, Alice MacKenzie (1925-2010) I wrote a quite lengthy dedication to my Mom, which she read before she passed on, so here I will just say she was the best… and an absolute hoot. There is nothing to compare to the influence of your Mom, and I couldn’t have chosen better.
And to Lillian Butler, who is a true lady and the dearest of friends.
Footprints
One night I had a dream. I was
walking along a beach with the Lord,
and across the sky flashed scenes
from my life. In each scene,
I noticed two sets of footprints,
side by side in the sand.
One was mine and one was the Lord’s.
When the last scene of my life
appeared before me, I looked back,
and to my surprise, I saw that
during the lowest
and saddest times of my life, there
was only one set of footprints!
Lord,
I cried, "you said that once I
decided to follow you, you would walk
beside me all the way.
But during the most troublesome times
in my life there is only one set
of footprints. I don’t understand
why you left my side
when I needed you the most."
The Lord turned and looked at me,
His eyes filled with love.
My precious child,
He said,
I have never left you.
During your times of trial, where
you only see one set of footprints,
that was when I was carrying you."

Preface
When studying the Law of Attraction you may find words that are universally acknowledged, but which are not familiar to you. My extensive studies of the Law of Attraction over the past eight years are based on The Teachings of Abraham as published by Esther and Jerry Hicks. I have also studied the work of Dr. Wayne Dyer on the subject, and respect his opinion as well.
Definitions in this field are:
The Law of Attraction—Like attracts like
Vibrational Energy—It is the personal level of energy that we emit.
Contrast—Observing what we don’t like and focusing on what we prefer instead.
Vortex—A whirling mass of energy which holds everything we ever desired.
While the popularity of the Law of Attraction has come and gone over the years, the premise has been around, studied and written about for centuries.
As one individual studies it and applies it in their life, the expansion of positive energy is phenomenal. You cannot insist anyone else study the Law of Attraction, or that they believe in the principles of it, but as in the television commercial, If one person tells two people, who tell two people…
In this day and age, the electronic world we now live in makes such a difference in our ability to share information as important as the effects of the Law of Attraction.
When you see the benefit of it in your own life, I encourage you to spread the word.
I wish to Acknowledge and thank
Barb Laidlaw—for your ability to edit and confer. You can write a book by yourself, but without the input of someone who understands what you are trying to accomplish, you never know the simple changes that make such a difference.
Sheila Rowland—for your never-ending enthusiasm, support and our get up and get going
pact each morning.
Ren Scharnhorst, my neighbor and good friend—for all the wonderful dinners you cooked so I could focus on my work, and for just being you.
Esther and Jerry Hicks—for their work with The Teachings of Abraham and Dr. Wayne Dyer—for his work about the Law of Attraction. You all are an irreplaceable inspiration to everyone.
Introduction
Living life is similar to driving a vehicle. Inattention can change your path for the rest of your life.
Think of all the times you or someone you were driving with, reached for something and swerved over the center line, into an adjoining lane or toward the shoulder of the road. Looking for or reaching for the phone, seeing who a text is from, reading it or responding; trying to find your smokes, a lighter or lighting your cigarette; reaching for a drink or messing with the radio… these are but a few of the things that can distract you while driving. Just reading a billboard along the road, looking at beautiful scenery, or glancing down to see what rolled across the floor at that last turn is enough to cause a problem, even if it is only for a moment.
A dear friend of mine, Jo Pollack, was driving home one night from a nursing staff meeting on a two lane road. The 16 year old driver coming at her reached for his drink, went over the center line and hit her head on. He survived without much injury; she did not survive. An amazing woman, mother, grandmother, wife, nurse and friend… gone in an instant of inattention by another driver.
The Law of attraction is working in your life 24/7 whether you know about it or not, believe in it or not, or care… or not. Inattention on your part lets The Law of Attraction work by default, instead of working to your benefit as it should.
There are so many things in life that could be different if you change your
