The Law of Attraction and Winning a TV Game Show

By Zehra Mahoon

I enjoy watching TV with my kids in the evening. A couple of nights ago, we decided to watch a game show called "a minute to win". If you're not familiar with the show, it involves contestants playing party games to win money. This night it was a really involving installment with two young girls, probably in their 20s who were really excited to be on the program and to have a chance to win. They have a minute to play each game. They won the first prize with ease, they danced all over the stage and everyone in the audience was swept up in their energy - so were we. We took an immediate liking to the girls and of course we wanted them to win.

We held our breath as they played again. The second round gave them $10,000 in winnings. They were all over the place again, hugging, screaming, dancing - you couldn't help but love them. Then the show host asked them what the money was for. We found out that this family had seen some pretty rough times - even to the extent of having to live on the street, and that their mother had kept them together and pulled them through - their winnings were for their mother, for her cancer treatment which was costing them $4,000 per month.

A wave of love and appreciation swept the audience, and now we were all doubly invested in their winning - we wanted them to get to the finish line with a million dollars. They got up to $50,000 in the next round and now they were playing for $75,000.

The show host talked to them further about their mother and asked them to focus on winning the money. He really wanted them to win, but he also wanted to use their story to get the audience emotionally involved with their story. He asked them if they wanted to leave with their winnings or go on playing - he asked them what their mom would say. You could hear a pin drop - everyone went quiet waiting for the girls to respond.

At that moment, I felt a shift in the vibration of the show. From being uplifting and happy, it went to "Oh my God, I hope they don't lose now". You could see the faces of the two girls change as the stakes were raised. Win they did, there was a sigh of relief, and more tension now as the next bar was at $125,000.

The well meaning host pointed out to them that they still had three lives in hand. Then he pointed out that the one sister had already played twice and according to the rules if she played a third time then the girls would lose the opportunity to pick who should play. The problem was that the game for this round was one that the sister with two rounds knew how to play and the other one didn't.

I could see and feel that the unexperienced sister was now scared and her vibration had shifted a fair bit. She could have stopped at this point and let her sister take the round, but she was drive to do what the anchor thought was the right move in the game. She played - and she lost. Now she was totally out of the vortex. The other sister was doing better - by a small margin.
Now the host, played his trump card - he put up a large picture of the girls mother and got her on the phone. The girls started crying. The audience was struck as they all realized how "big" this task was.

The experience sister took over now - and yes, she lost. And then she lost again. The game was over. Thankfully, the girls still had $50,000 to walk away with.

I couldn't watch any more. My thoughts were on the law of attraction and figuring out how it had played out in this scenario.

Here are my thoughts:

I think that both the audience and the girls started thinking of the $125,000 mark as big - too big. The vibration changed from "wow! We're winning" to "Oh my God, I hope we don't lose - this means so much". In that change of thought is a change of vibration and the two coupled together took the girls from a positive upward energy spiral to a downward energy spiral all in the space of fifteen minutes. That truly was the law of attraction in action!

I could see and feel that the inexperienced sister was now scared and her vibration had shifted a fair bit. She could have stopped at this point and let her sister take the round, but she was driven to do what the show host thought was the right move in the game. She played - and she lost. Now she was totally out of the vortex. The other sister was doing better - by a small margin. She played - she lost. The audience moaned. Now they were all out of the vortex, because instead of seeing the girls win, they were anticipating the loss and that's where they put their focus - the girls could not have bucked that current, or maybe they could have but it would have taken a lot and as Abraham says, when you've already jumped from 10,000 feet, don't worry, it will be over soon. In the sense that when you are in a downward spiral it is much harder to stop and make the shift in vibration necessary to change things - because it means taking the resistance head on and then shifting - not too many of us can do it given a few split seconds on public television and a room full of people feeling sorry for us! The law of attraction also says that when you are on a positive spiral that too will keep going (unless you look down from your elevated position).

It's interesting that I can now see the law of attraction in action all around me. It's exciting and as Abraham says once you learn this stuff you can never go back - good thing is I want to keep going forward!

Blessings!
