When Rhonda Byrne started researching the Law of Attraction for her movie (and subsequent book) The Secret, she started by tracing it back to some of the greatest minds the world has ever known.
“I couldn’t believe all the people who knew this,” she writes. “They were the greatest people in history: Plato, Shakespeare, Newton, Hugo, Beethoven, Lincoln, Emerson, Edison, Einstein.” And that’s why Rhonda found it equally hard to believe how few people seem to know and intentionally practice the Law of Attraction today. So she started seeking out those who follow the Law of Attraction, and who do so masterfully.
“One by one they began to emerge,” writes Rhonda of the Law of Attraction thought leaders featured in The Secret. “I became a magnet: as I began to search, one great living master after another was drawn to me.”
“When I discovered one teacher, that one would link to the next, in a perfect chain.”
You too can use the same magnetism inherent in the Law of Attraction to build your social media network. Simply seek out leaders in your area of interest. Read their blog. Follow them on Twitter. Join or fan their Facebook page. Subscribe to their YouTube Channel. Then, most importantly, engage. Not about any product or service you offer, but about the common interest you share.
Comment on their blog or YouTube page. Retweet and reply to them. Post to their Facebook page. And most importantly, do all of these things not just once, but regularly. You may get direct responses from these mentors of yours, and how great would that be?! But what’s more certain is that you are laying the path for a “perfect chain” of connections that will be revealed to you.
All of this regular engagement through your mentors’ social media sites will inevitably lead you to the blogs, Twitter accounts, Facebook pages and YouTube channels of others who share the same interest or passion. And the more committed you are to engaging on a regular basis, the more visible you are going to be, thus increasing the magnetism to you.
