The Law of Receiving is one of Bob Proctor and Mary Morrissey’s 11 Forgotten Laws. The 11 Forgotten Laws is a program and study course based upon Raymond Holliwell’s book Working With The Law, click here to order.

Some what of a surprising message is this Law of Receiving. (That’s Yoda-speak for, The Law of receiving has a surprising message.) In order to receive you must first give. Most people, myself included, have always been of the mind that you must get before you can give. In my mind I have always figured when I hit the big time I will then be able to give more in charitable contributions. Habitat for Humanity is my personal favorite. I donate sporadically. But according to this Law of Receiving the giving must come first. As Raymond Holliwell states giving, "is the first law of all creation." I believe it was the creators of the Chicken Soup For The Soul series whom I have seen giving a seminar on the benefits of giving. Considering the astounding success of their books, I am thinking they must know of what they speak. But I must say, I didn’t really get it then. I did not really get it in the Law of Attraction sort of way. Giving opens up an avenue for receiving.

When I look back on my life I can see places where I was using this law and it was working very well for me but I wasn’t even aware. There have been many times where I gave selflessly and gained much in return. Sometimes the rewards were monetary, sometimes spiritual, often times both. In my current financial situation, I can see where my money making strategy has been a bit weak. Certainly the financial benefits have had that same weakness. Bob Proctor says, "Giving always precedes and predetermines the reception, whether you’re giving your thought, your work, your service, or your deed."

In my mind and most certainly in my heart, the idea that I am giving something that will benefit others makes the work so much more satisfying. It also gives the work a much higher value which can most certainly be financially beneficial. However, we must be aware that there is a right and also a wrong way to give. Careless and impulsive giving will get careless results. But there can also be as Proctor puts it, "careful, scientific giving." If our giving retards progress then there can be no benefit. Such as giving a person food instead of teaching him to feed himself would be detrimental. However giving the help a person needs to stand on their own can be powerful.

Proctor suggests we tithe 10% of our income before anything else. He says tithing ,"is an orderly, methodical plan of giving, which creates a steady flow of reciprocal good to be received." Not bad. He goes on to say, "tithing gives a person self-reliance, a confidence which enables him to build up a positive mental attitude which attracts success." That’s what I’m all about, "attracting success."

Now after we give, there is more to do. Next we must prepare to receive. As Raymond Holliwell states, "This is the most interesting part, because our preparation shows our active faith." This ties in with what we know of the Law of Attraction. Our desire, and our attention to that desire, sets us up to receive what we desire. We may get what we expect to receive. Holliwell goes on to say, "The key to the law then is: We are continually drawing into life what we give and expect." so if we give in a lazy manner we can expect to receive lazy results. However in giving it our all we can expect results that may just exceed our expectations.

Imagine the results you will get when you give all you can give in a thoughtful manner. You may just surprise yourself.
