The Creative Laws by Alan Roy Hocking

The Creative Laws by Alan Roy Hocking talks about the Law of Attraction and how everything has a unique purpose, including humans. Each one of us has our own personal purpose for being here on Earth. Much of the book talks about the book and movie The Secret that most of us have heard of, read or watched…only from Alan’s point of view and personal experience.

One part of The Creative Laws that really resonated with me is the fact that I can only know my own life, not anyone else’s. I think we all become victim to the “grass is always greener”syndrome. Everyone has their own unique life. There are many garden references made, which makes things easier to understand, such as your garden of life, and how you have to let nature take its course.

The Creative Laws is rather repetitive, although it is sprinkled with many personal anecdotes. It’s rather like reading a rather long ramble, but in some ways that is a good thing, as there are many slightly different ways of saying the same thing…and who knows which one will make the most sense to you. I enjoyed the part on stopping yourself from living on autopilot, and setting the day up in your head before you even get out of bed. The Creative Laws discusses risk taking, raising children, following your heart and many other things that are easily forgotten in the day to day living.

I give The Creative Laws three and a half stars out of five stars. It’s definitely worth a read for the personal anecdotes alone, but the repetitive nature may put you to sleep.
