My answer is an emphatic “No.” I included Tiger Woods because his approach to golf better typifies the Law of Attraction than any other current golfer, or perhaps athlete for that matter. Either by instinct or overt action, he has skillfully leveraged the Law of Attraction principles to become one of golf’s greatest players ever. It is “the secret” that has produced his mental toughness, focus, and other qualities we admire – his competitive edge. We all want to improve our golf experience, so why not copy these principles and Tiger’s positive actions?
The qualities expressed in leveraging the Law of Attraction that made Tiger Woods a great golfer hold true no matter what he does outside the golf arena.
The Law of Attraction is not about whether or not you are a good person. It is a matter of physics. What you focus upon you attract. Being pure of spirit has nothing to do with the Law of Attraction anymore than the Law of Gravity won’t exempt “good” people from falling. We simply learned that Woods is more selfish and less authentic than we might have hoped – neither the cause of nor the effect of the Law of Attraction. He attracted what he focused upon.
Secondly, the Law of Attraction is working all the time for everyone whether for intended or unintended results. It is not my place to discuss why Tiger Woods behaved the way he did. Suffice it to say, some of our idols have feet of clay.
Many of us are so quick to judge others as well as what happens in life as right or wrong, good or bad, attractive or ugly, etc. Yes, I, too, briefly got caught up judging Tiger Woods, a man I really don’t know well (very few really do). Even if I knew Tiger better, judging him is not healthy or productive for me.
Judging others and feeling righteous are two low-level energies in the same family as fear, scarcity, jealously, anger, and the like. When we judge others, and especially when we proclaim our judgments, we take ourselves out of alignment with our “best selves.” We sabotage the benefits of the Law of Attraction and attract similar low energy experiences. The real opportunity associated with the Law of Attraction is the realization that we can choose to grow in exciting ways – judgment is not one of them.
Maybe we should all be more forgiving, but less enamored of prominent people. What the Woods Family needs now are more friends and fewer critics. And don’t we all?
