The Soulmate Secret
Manifest the Love of Your Life with the Law of Attraction
by Arielle Ford

As someone who didn’t meet her soulmate until the age of 44, Arielle Ford became something of a heroine for single women. But her journey to that place wasn’t easy. In her early 40’s, despite Ford’s career success, she was a self-described ‘failure’ in romantic relationships. When she did meet and marry her husband Brian, Ford began to get so many questions from people in similar stages of life that she decided to share her story in The Soulmate Secret, which HarperOne published on January 1, 2009
($22.95; ISBN 13: 9780061692376; hardcover).

In The Soulmate Secret, the woman who helped launch the careers of Deepak Chopra, Neale Donald Walsch, and Jack Canfield tells readers how she found her happily-ever after
in her husband Brian and reveals that finding true love is possible at any age if you’re willing to prepare yourself—spiritually, mentally, and physically—to become a magnet for love.

Arielle uses a series of processes that have to be felt in every cell of your being to create
the outcome you desire. This practical guide also includes prayers and techniques to help
clear out emotional baggage from the past and make room for true love to manifest itself.
With helpful chapters on readiness, belief, “the List,” self-love, and more, The Soulmate
Secret will guide the reader to find lasting love. www.soulmatesecret.com

ARIELLE FORD is one of the founding partners of the Spiritual Cinema Circle, a DVD club dedicated to providing movies about love and compassion. Prior to January 2004, Arielle
ran her own PR firm, The Ford Group. She is best known for helping to launch the careers of Deepak Chopra, Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, and Neale Donald Walsch. She has also handled publicity for Wayne Dyer, Debbie Ford, Gary Zukav, Marianne Williamson, Louise Hay, don Miguel Ruiz, and many other notable authors, eleven of whom became #1 on the New York Times bestseller.

How Can We Affect Positive Change Without Complaining? From Will Bowen And AComplaintFreeWorld.Org

“Complaining is not to be confused with informing someone of a mistake or deficiency so that it can be put right. And to refrain from complaining doesn’t necessarily mean putting up with bad quality or behavior. There is no ego in telling the waiter your soup is cold and needs to be heated up—if you stick to the facts, which are always neutral.‘How dare you serve me cold soup…?’ That’s complaining.”—Eckhart Tolle, “A New Earth”

 

Asking for what you want is not complaining. Complaining often impedes rather than facilitates a positive outcome. In Tolle’s example of the waiter (above) many people would complain to everyone at the table, leave little or no tip and never inform the waiter what was wrong. And yet the waiter was the only person who could have rectified the situation.

 

Contrary to popular opinion, complaining is often employed to avoid taking action toward improvement. The first step toward positive change is dissatisfaction. Complaining keeps our focus on the dissatisfaction and never moves us beyond to positive resolution. Our focus must be on what we desire rather than what is wrong.

           

“Were the great leaders of the United States also great complainers? I’d have to say, “No.”  These important men and women allowed dissatisfaction to drive them to great visions and their passion for these visions inspired others to follow them. Their relentless focus on a bright future raced the collective heartbeat of this nation. Their method of transforming our consciousness as a country and, as a result, our future was best summarized by Robert Kennedy, “There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why? I dream of things that never were, and ask why not?” Great leaders acknowledge the present situation but they keep their vision beyond the problem and on the solution.

 

On August 28, 1963, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. did not stand on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and simply complain. He spoke words that struck a chord with our nation and still bring tears to the eyes of those hearing them nearly a half-century later. He did not focus on the problem, he focused beyond the problem. He declared, “I have a dream!” Dr. King created in our minds a vivid picture of a world without racism. He had “been to the mountain top” and his words took us there as well.

 

            Rosa Parks did not sit at the back of the bus complaining loudly to all around her about the unjustness of Birmingham society. Rather, she focused beyond the problem and sat where she belonged: with her peers. (Excerpted from “A Complaint Free World- How to Stop Complaining and Start Enjoying the Life You Always Wanted” by Will Bowen, doubleday) (From Will Bowen, AComplaintFreeWorld.org)

What’s Wrong With Complaining? From Will Bowen And AComplaintFreeWorld.Org

“It is a waste of time to be angry about my disability. One has to get on with life and I haven't done badly. People won't have time for you if you are always
angry or complaining." — Stephen Hawking

            What we articulate, we demonstrate. Our thoughts create our lives and our words indicate what we are thinking. Complaining words are evidence of negative thoughts which draw to us negative experiences. 

            Complaining can be likened to bad breath; we notice it when it comes out of someone else’s mouth but not when it comes out of our own mouth. Most people complain habitually and don’t realize they are doing so. Studies have shown that routine griping has damaging effects to our health and relationships.  
                                   
Health

            Complaining about our health diminishes our role in recovering from illness and can actually make a person sicker. Doctors have found that people who complain about their illnesses actually worsen the symptoms of their disease. Our minds play a significant role in the health of our bodies. “Doctors estimate that as much as two thirds of their time is spent treating individuals whose underlying problem is psychological.”[1]  A negative attitude as evidenced by a complaining nature increases the likelihood that a person will be sick.

Relationships

 

• Complainers lose friends: “People who complain too frequently are labeled as whiners and may risk being excluded from valued social groups or relationships.”[1]

 

• Complainers drag down conversations. “Complaining is often contagious.  After one person has complained, the incidence of others also complaining seems to increase, resulting in a domino effect of complaining.”[2]
  
  
• Complaining hurts others and feeds on itself. “The complainer influences the behavior of the listener, and the listener’s response to the complaint subsequently affects the behavior of the complainer.” [3]  This creates a complaining loop whereby people feed off one another’s negativity which drains each of them emotionally.
