Attraction can be confused with passivity, idly sitting there waiting for things to happen instead of actually doing something about it but this is far from the case. When I set a goal, instead of desperately searching for ways to accomplish said goal and seeking a path, I observe and see which opportunities present themselves to me. When setting a goal, the universe will always accommodate by putting challenges and obstacles in your path that will help you to create what you want. These situations, tasks or challenges can be incredibly subtle, but once you stop seeking they will become very clear.
