Mccracken, Kristi. "Educationally speaking; Recession-proof your mind" Porterville Recorder, The.(July 2010): p68-95. Paper Source. Web. 3 Nov 2010.
Summary: Recession proof your mind. When the world is talking about a recession you should think the complete opposite. Rich people have developed a habit of always thinking big and knowing they are rich. The articles refers to the movie THE SECRET, and talks about how you receive what you think, therefor if you open up a bill and you think debt, you will get more debt.
Reflection: I love finding all these articles that talk about things that are the law of attraction but in different words. readind more about things like this it makes me think about how i see it in my everyday life and how i know people in my life who really have no money, and i just so happen to hear them talk about how broke they are all the time, If only they started to think they were getting rich. I am going to now go read the movie "Secrets of a Millionaire Mind."

Boe, John. "The Magic of Positive Thinking." American Salesman, Vol 54 issue 7(July 2009):PG 17-19. MasterFILE Premier. 3 NOV 2010.
SUMMARY: This article does not say that positive thinking will manifest a positive situation but what it does say is that any situation you are in can be positive depending on how you are perceiving the situation. It says that it depends on you to be aware of your attitude and to try not to have negative minded people. You will be a failure if failure is what you think. You are what you think.
Reflection: I really love how it says the key is to look for opportunity. I think it was very effective when he gave the quote from Thomas Edison "There is great value in disaster. All our mistakes are burned up. Thank God we can start anew." after a building with 2,000,0000 of equipment of his was burned down. Learning to use the Law of Attraction doesnt work if you can not learn to change situations that you would normally perceive as bad into something good. every door that closes, another one opens.

SUMMARY: This article refers to when the Law of Attraction was referred to the New Thought Movement which was the late 1800's and the early 1900's, it began after the discovery of what disease can to your body and it became an entire movement. There were conventions held and the international new thought movement alliance was formed. It was a new approach on life and conduct. The new thought movement had people like ralph waldo trine who later became well known.
Reflection: The more I research the more names I find for the law of attraction. I like to find things from a long time ago. The law of attraction to a lot of people they have to TRY to believe it, me I have proven it to myself so many times over the past few years that I know it's true, so finding articles like this to show that there was once a movement in a time like that is very rewarding.

Pitts, Willis. Cancer and the Power of Positive Thinking. Total Health, Vol. 15 Issue 3,(JUNE 93): PG38. Health Source - Consumer Edition. 29 oCT 2010.
Summary: This article speaks of cancer and the severity of it. It talks about how at this time on average cancer took a life every single minute. It was highest killer of kids from age 3 to 14. As much money and effort that is put into finding a cure for cancer there is still no luck, and no matter what awesome thing the world does the cure for cancer is not one of them. This article talks about how the first step for the development of cancer is the break down of the immune system. It has been proven that the immune system is improved with good self esteem, happiness, and an over all positive thinking.
Reflection: I like this article just because it is a scholarly source to show what I already knew. The movie The Secret features a lady who got breast cancer and was cured within 3 months with no treatment except for laughter and positive thnking. Its proven that stress creates disease, which makes sense if the immune system can be improved with positive thinking then the immune system can be put down by negative thinking. I personally know a person who was paralized, they told her her level of severity which would be from right below the arms down, 3 months later looking at those x rays again realizing that they diagnosed her wrong, and she is was supposed to be a quadrapalegic, but because she thouht she was supposed to still be able to use her arms, she can.

Marglin, Elizabeth. "The PLACEBO Affect." Natural Health, , Vol. 40 Issue 5 (June 2010): p68-95. Health Source - Consumer Edition. Web. 28 Oct 2010.
Summary: The mind-body connection plays a huge — and hugely underestimated — role in our ability to heal ourselves. The placebo was very underestimated and thought to be bogus until the mid 1950's when studies were done and the affect of placebo's started to become taken seriously. "Salt injections masquerading as morphine actually decreased pain; fake knee surgery improved mobility in the joints. Conversely, "nocebo" effects (the unpleasant, and even harmful reactions that arise in a patient after taking a placebo as a treatment known to have negative side effects) also had to be considered." This article also talks about drug companies and how this would affect them. It refers to the fact that people are conditions, which is true, to reach for medicine and to of course only THINK IN THEIR MIND that a pill is the only thing that will save them.
Refliection: The Placebo affect is very helpful when it comes to backing up the law of attraction. The law of attraction is based on bringing what you think. Of course if you think the sugar pill is medicine it is definitely going work like medicine. The article also speaks of how when people see a doctor in their typical white coat they already start to feel better and less stressed, this wraps back to the law in a way that it is proven that stress creates disease so if you are taking something even though it doesn't have any medication in it you are creating a healthier you just by feeling better and less stressed. You are what you think.

The purpose of this article is to relay to people that in a time like this in our country when all you hear is words like debt, recession, low economy, you should shift your mind to think the opposite which should help your life to do the opposite of debt and recession. The audience of this article might be someone like me, doing research, or most likely someone who runs a business and is looking into the way the economy has affected people who now are lacking confidence to spend money on their business and take risks like they normally would. Given the information that I have provided to me about this author I can not say what her background is but considering the topic I dont believe that there are any biases. The only thing that could be considered is if maybe someone simply refused to believe that just an attitude could help a business.

The purpose of this article is to tell people the importance of having a positive attitude and how maintaining a calm focused, positive mind can some times be a challenge it is well worth the effort. You must focus on thinking positive even times where all your mind wants to do is think about the not so positive situation. this also includes staying away from people who are negative which can also be an obstacle depending on the part they play in your life. According to this article every bad situation has an opportunity, a way to perceive the event as good, a bright side to all dark spots. The audience of this article would be people who are either researching things that have to do with mental self help or people who are already very into metaphysical things, the power of the mind is not a secret anymore. I am not sure what the background to this author would be but he gives a recommendation to 10 different books that are about the power of positive thinking, creating success, and mind. Giving these books as a reference I think help me be confident in the article because I can then go and look at 10 different books to read how they would explain the same thing. I dont think there is any biases in this other then the fact that the author believes that the mind can affect life in either negative or positive ways where as someone else might believe you have no control over the situations you encounter in your life.

The audience for this article could be people who are interested in the mind and how it affects health overall, the audience could be people who are battling health problems and are seeking natural treatment and cures.

Arntz, William, Dir. "What the Bleep do we Know." Dir William Arntz.
Roadside Attraction: 2006, DVD.
The movie What the Bleep do we Know is a metaphysical concept based movie that concentrates on quantum physics. This movie concentrates widely on the power of the mind and how it affects the body on the inside and out. Also how it affects situations in the outer world and how you control it with your most dominant thoughts feelings and actions.
I mainly would like to concentrate on their experiment on water. They put water under a microscope that way they could look at the molecules and the structure they were in. First they had a priest bless the water, the molecules structure did change, it changed into a very symmetrical, organized, almost beautiful structure and shapes, as perfect as a snow flake. Then they took water and they did the opposite, they had very negative thoughts concentrated on the water and they wrote words like hate and anger on the container it was in. The water molecules then again changed structure and this time it was very unorganized, almost chaotic looking. According to ga.water.usgs.gov our body is made up of an average of 70% water. If we have proven that thoughts can change the physical structure of water, imagine what we could do for our bodies by the way we think and feel about ourselves.
The mind is amazing.

First they had a priest bless the water, the molecules structure did change, it changed into a very symmetrical, organized, almost beautiful structure and shapes, as perfect as a snow flake. Then they took water and they did the opposite, they had very negative thoughts concentrated on the water and they wrote words like hate and anger on the container it was in. The water molecules then again changed structure and this time it was very unorganized, almost chaotic looking. According to ga.water.usgs.gov our body is made up of an average of 70% water. If we have proven that thoughts can change the physical structure of water, imagine what we could do for our bodies by the way we think and feel about ourselves.
The mind is amazing.

Rough Draft
Have you ever noticed that some people just have really bad lives? Maybe they are late all the time, constantly hitting on the red lights and traffic. Inconvenient situations constantly coming into their life. You know they are broke all of the time because they constantly talk about it. Maybe you know someone who is the complete opposite, good situations and good people constantly there at the right time. They are always happy and you can really see that because they have a really happy life. Have you ever wondered if there is a reason why some people have great lives and some people just not so much? Just maybe, we are in control.
I would like to talk about the Law of attraction. Starting with what it is, some science behind it, some popular concepts and a personal experience of a friend of mine's.
The concept of the Law of Attraction states: like attracts like. Your most dominant thoughts feeling and actions are exactly what you get over and over and over again.
So we still start with some science. According to ezinearticles.com Einstein's e=mc2 talks about the relationship between energy and matter. Basically me, you and the computer you are looking at are made up of exactly the same thing; little particles of vibrating energy constantly moving, interchangeable and always in motion. Then we have the Law of Gravity, the law of gravity is gravitational pull of matter to matter, or according to Newton- every massive particle attracts every other massive particle. So anything that is matter has a gravitational pull to matter, which is exactly the way the orbital system of the universe works. According to the Smithsonian institute thoughts can be measured, which they are mass and energy too. Therefor; thoughts attract matter.
There are quite a few popular concepts that are the Law of Attraction at work. For instance the placebo affect. When someone is given a sugar pill for instance but is lead to believe that it contains medicine. Because one believes that it is their medicine it works just like their medicine would. Often times when the subject is aware of any side affects the drug may have those will also accompany the sugar pill. According to skepdic.com there is no adequate evidence to show that new medicines are any more affective then placebos.
You may have also heard that stress creates disease. It is proven that stress breaks down the immune system and that has been known since the early nineteen hundreds. The breakdown of the immune system doesn't only stop your body from fighting off bacteria and viruses that it should be able to fight off but it also is the first step to the development of cancer. According to a movie call What the Bleep do we Know, there was an experiment done on water. They put water under a microscope to look at the molecules, they had a priest bless the water. The molecules then moved into a very organized almost beautiful structure. They then did the same thing except that projected negative thoughts towards the water and even wrote things like "anger" and "hate" on the container. The molecules then restructured only this time it was a very unorganized almost chaotic structure. According to ga.water.usgs.gov our bodies are made up of an average of 70% water. If it is proven that our thoughts can change the structure of water imagine what you can do to your own body just by the way you feel and think of it.
I would like to talk about an experience of a women named Caeri Baker. She had a tattoo on her back that said "insert knife here" with a large X under it. She got into a very bad dirt biking accident. The doctors did have to insert a knife right into the large X. Coincidence, maybe- but that's not all. Caeri also had a false diagnosis that changed her life. The doctors told Caeri that was a paraplegic, therefor; she thought she could not move her legs. Come to find out, she was supposed to be diagnosed as quadraplegic. Because she thought that was supposed to be able to use her arms, she could. The mind is a powerful thing.
No body likes to think that they are the reason for all the negative things in their life. If people would understand the concept of positive thinking and realize that the control you have over your life is actually a real universal law maybe less people would have such not so good lives and more great successful happy lives. There is probably a reason why 10% percent of the population of the world has 80% of the worlds money. The hardest part of this concept is believing it. Trying to attract something into your life for your benefit is something you must do with out doubt, if not, you will only attract something to doubt.

I like would like to talk about a friend of mine. She got a tattoo on her back that said "Insert knife here" with a large X. She got into a dirt bike accident and they just so ironically had to insert the knife right there, talk about calling the universe. A false diagnosis changed her life. They told her that she was a paraplegic, therefor; she thought that she could not move her legs. Come to find out they were supposed to diagnose her as a quadraplegic, Of course because she thought she could move her arms, she could.
I am also going to talk about the most recent of many times that I have use the law of attraction.
I was getting a new car and about a week before i was like OH SHIT I can not believe that I have not written down what I want yet. So I got my paper out and I started writing over and over again.. the perfect car for the perfect price the perfect car for the perfect price. then I started to write all of the features down. I wrote the following things multiple times.
It has low mileage
It has seat warmers
It's comfortable
It is new
It is has a sun roof
It is fun to drive
I am going to finance it all by myself(i had only had a credit card for 3 months with only a $500 limit= no credit)
over and over I wrote that and I honestly believed that I would have it.
So I went to this little sort of dinky dealership. I am looking around and looking at prices. The guy started to tell me how he got 4 cars in that same morning. He brought out one that he thought I would like, it was nice, black accord with 29,0000 miles on it, but he had mentioned something earlier about a really nice one he had got that morning, I asked him to see it before saying anything about the car in front of me. He pulls it around, looks nice.
19000 miles
seat warmers
Leather sears
2007
sun roof
V6
I knew it was mine.
It was priced at $14,900,
$6000 under bluebook.
oh yeah. and somehow... I got financed all by my little no credit self :)

Mccracken, Kristi. "Educationally speaking; Recession-proof your mind" Porterville Recorder, The.(July 2010): p68-95. Paper Source. Web. 3 Nov 2010.
Summary: Recession proof your mind. When the world is talking about a recession you should think the complete opposite. Rich people have developed a habit of always thinking big and knowing they are rich. The articles refers to the movie THE SECRET, and talks about how you receive what you think, therefor if you open up a bill and you think debt, you will get more debt.
Reflection: I love finding all these articles that talk about things that are the law of attraction but in different words. readind more about things like this it makes me think about how i see it in my everyday life and how i know people in my life who really have no money, and i just so happen to hear them talk about how broke they are all the time, If only they started to think they were getting rich. I am going to now go read the movie "Secrets of a Millionaire Mind."

Boe, John. "The Magic of Positive Thinking." American Salesman, Vol 54 issue 7(July 2009):PG 17-19. MasterFILE Premier. 3 NOV 2010.
SUMMARY: This article does not say that positive thinking will manifest a positive situation but what it does say is that any situation you are in can be positive depending on how you are perceiving the situation. It says that it depends on you to be aware of your attitude and to try not to have negative minded people. You will be a failure if failure is what you think. You are what you think.
Reflection: I really love how it says the key is to look for opportunity. I think it was very effective when he gave the quote from Thomas Edison "There is great value in disaster. All our mistakes are burned up. Thank God we can start anew." after a building with 2,000,0000 of equipment of his was burned down. Learning to use the Law of Attraction doesnt work if you can not learn to change situations that you would normally perceive as bad into something good. every door that closes, another one opens.

SUMMARY: This article refers to when the Law of Attraction was referred to the New Thought Movement which was the late 1800's and the early 1900's, it began after the discovery of what disease can to your body and it became an entire movement. There were conventions held and the international new thought movement alliance was formed. It was a new approach on life and conduct. The new thought movement had people like ralph waldo trine who later became well known.
Reflection: The more I research the more names I find for the law of attraction. I like to find things from a long time ago. The law of attraction to a lot of people they have to TRY to believe it, me I have proven it to myself so many times over the past few years that I know it's true, so finding articles like this to show that there was once a movement in a time like that is very rewarding.
