Steve Dragon has a compelling story of how he moved his feet when a genius idea came to him. He worked hard and put forth consistent effort. But his idea never fully materialized. Discouraged, he let it go. But wait…that’s not the end of the story. Once Steve learned and started applying the p...

By Beckie Dragon The Law of Perpetual Transmutation was completely foreign to me. I never set goals. I never dreamed. Deep down, I believed that other people could do this or that… be this or that… but not me. If I wanted something growing up, I had to convince my parents that it mattered enough...

By Beckie Dragon I started doing the assignments for Facilitator Training back in May 2020. I got one article written but then felt like I couldn’t really write about the other laws without experiencing them while manifesting my goals. I tried to focus on setting goals and worked to achieve them...

By Steve Dragon Rarely does a week go by when I don’t find myself invoking the Law of Relativity. You’ll often hear me say, “Well, THAT could have been a lot worse!” Beckie, my wife, has heard it so many times she’s occasionally grown irritated when I’ve reminded her, “We have to look at the ete...

By Steve Dragon I recently listened to a BYU devotional talk by C. Terry Warner, a former professor of philosophy at BYU, entitled “Honest, Simple, Solid, True” (link here). In it, he shares a moment from his youth, sitting in a BYU classroom as a teacher discussed the life of Joseph Smith. He r...

By Steve Dragon I’ve never been one to embrace (no pun intended) relationships. I learned at an early age—third grade, in fact—that I had a rather abrasive personality: a little too bold at times, somewhat presumptuous, and often carrying an attitude of entitlement. (I was told in my early twent...

By Steve Dragon In the New Testament, in Mark chapter 4, the Savior shares the Parable of the Sower. He describes seeds falling in different types of soil—some on stony ground, some among thorns, and some in good ground—and how those seeds responded based on the environment they were placed in. ...

By Steve Dragon For most of my working life, I lived “hand-to-mouth.” If I had money in my hand, I spent it—usually as quickly as possible—on whatever felt good or fun in the moment: food, hobbies, travel, cars… you name it. I didn’t budget. I didn’t save. I didn’t plan. It was a cycle of work, ...

By Steve Dragon As with nearly all of the Universal Laws—especially the Law of Rhythm—I can now clearly recognize their presence throughout my life, even though I didn’t know what to call them at the time. Looking back over the last thirty years or so, I’ve seen a distinct pattern: whenever my ...

By Steve Dragon Just before our youngest son was born in the summer of 1994, we felt inspired to move into Beckie’s childhood home in Farmington, Utah—the very one she had lived in her entire life. It was a small house that had started as a simple structure in the 1930s, built in phases over for...

By Steve Dragon One of my favorite illustrations of the Law of Vibration is how an acorn grows. Once it’s planted, the acorn naturally begins to draw to itself all the minerals, nutrients, and resources it needs to become a mighty oak tree. It doesn’t pull in anything unnecessary or irrelevant—o...

By Steve Dragon Over the year and a half leading up to October 2019, our financial situation kept getting worse. In my judgment, we hadn’t done enough to improve things on the income side, and instead had kept up our lifestyle using three credit cards and a home equity loan. By January 2019, we ...
