I guess I was wrong in a way.
How are they all the same principles? Like the law of attraction and poetic justice.
Law of attraction
If you do and think/say negative things you attract more negative energy and people into your life and more negative stuff keeps escalating.
If you focus on positive thoughts and solutions and relate to others more positively, then you attract more positive energy, people and outcomes.
The positive or negative energy and thoughts attract more of the same.
That is why forgiveness is key to break out of negative tailspins and patterns, and work to build a positive spiral instead.
Poetic justice is life/the universe giving just desserts back to someone for what they did
Example: a very gracious lady I know, very wise ethical business woman who cares for people's souls, had a staff member she had trusted and trained to be very successful, turn on her, steal her clients and start their own competing business behind her back. She did not get ugly, angry or take revenge or even sue when she could have. She told this person what they had done wrong, and let them go on because "revenge is the Lord's". She just left it to God, and wasn't going to dwell over it. Then it turned out a very freak accident happened. This person was driving and struck a deer that was so big it crashed through the windshield and killed the driver instantly. My friend was dismayed and shocked but figured it was God's "poetic justice."
=========
Another way of teaching that you stay in the same mentality that keeps attracting more of the same:
Scarcity mentality vs Abundance mentality
Also
Victim mentality vs Victor mentality
Victimhood vs empowerment
Instead of getting stuck in blaming others, yourself, etc the key is forgiving and letting go, to focus on steps you take as positive for the future not negatives you remember from the past that keep you stuck there.
Can you think of some more?
