In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Jack Canfield describes myths about the Law of Attraction that will keep you from living life to the fullest.

The second myth is that it takes a lot of time and work to make the Law of Attraction work. Many people put off the necessary efforts by convincing themselves that they are already doing the most they can.

The third myth is that many people believe that the Law of Attraction is reflective of some new-age line of thought, when it has deep roots in religion and even Newton's Law of Gravity.
