The one thing I can say about this law is that it can be tricky.
While it seems very simple and straight forward, it can also be wildly complex.
I believe this because the root cause of something happening could have been from a choice that you made days, weeks or even months prior.
This makes it hard to track.
If what gets measured gets managed... that is a hard thing to measure.
On a basic visual level, this law makes a lot of sense. It is simple, speed on the road, get a ticket. Eat the bad food, gain more weight. Yell at someone, get hit in the face. You could go on with examples forever.
Although, what about the little things we don't see the immediate effects on?
That is where we start to drift.
For example, talk bad about your partner when you are mad... wonder why you are less forgiving, and you feel dissatisfied in your relationship.
Talk negativity about yourself constantly... wonder why you never have confidence to grow and try new things.
You see, cause and effect can be material and physically noticeable which is nice, but it can also be intangible.
Some effects are not a visual straight forward response, making it very easy to go bad without you noticing.
When the effect is visual it is easy to notice and fix. For example, we see ourselves gain weight, we decide we better stop eating bad food.
But what about when we seem to fight with our partner more?
I guess it’s because they keep messing up right?
Nope.
That is not the only reason... what if it is the effect of the mind set you have towards them? What if it is the fact that you spent the last hour at lunch talking with your friend about everything they do wrong?
Cause and effect can be tricky.
Become aware of the physical and the universal side.
Then, you can start using it in your favor.
