I’m excited to share with you an incredible Universal principle called the Law of Polarity. I was first introduced to this concept by Leslie Householder, author of the bestselling book The Jackrabbit Factor. She described it this way: "Everything has an opposite..."

So, what does that mean for you and me—and how can we actually use it to get what we want?

Quite simply, it means that anytime something unpleasant or difficult happens, it must, by law, contain within it some form of good. And not just any good—good that is equal in degree to the bad. Opposite and equal.

Isn’t that incredible? When something negative enters our lives, we can take comfort in knowing there is an equal amount of positive waiting to be found. So start looking for it! Let yourself feel excited, knowing that good has just entered your life, even if it’s hidden. You simply have to adjust your perception—shift your internal filter—to move past the discomfort and zoom in on the blessing.

The Law of Polarity is a powerful tool that helps us redirect our focus and tap into positive emotions. And the best mindset to pair with this law? Gratitude. Gratitude helps us draw in more of the good we’ve received. And really, who doesn’t want more good in their life? More joy, more peace, more clarity—it all becomes more accessible when we understand and use the Law of Polarity.

This law is always in effect, so our job is to expect the opposite and equal good. Believe it’s there, act in faith that it exists, and show that faith by searching for it and expressing gratitude for it.

Here’s the thing: the blessing usually won’t look like a blessing at first. It’s often disguised as something ugly, difficult, or unwanted. But if you can look beyond the surface, past the appearances, you’ll discover a beautiful gift—one meant specifically for you.

Let me give you a personal example.

After the birth of our second son, my wife had to be hospitalized for a few weeks. It was a tough time—scary, stressful, overwhelming, and expensive. We were already dealing with so much, and this just felt like too much to carry. How would we manage childcare? How could we cover the costs? Why was this happening?

We were both overwhelmed with questions and emotions. But I knew I needed help—not just physical or logistical help, but help staying in a positive emotional space. I wanted to support my wife and kids the best I could, and I knew I’d do that better if I was feeling hope and peace. So I made the choice to apply the Law of Polarity. I reminded myself that there had to be some equal and opposite good in all of this. But where?

That’s when I learned a powerful lesson: the good doesn’t always show up in the same form as the bad. In our case, what we gained was something deeply personal and lasting. That difficult experience brought my wife and me so much closer together. We learned to treasure each other and our time together in ways we hadn’t before. And on top of that, we were overwhelmed with kindness and generosity from family, friends, neighbors—even direct answers to prayer. The love and support we felt was profound.

There absolutely was a positive, and it was just as powerful as the challenge we faced. We found it because we believed it was there. We looked for it. We received it. And we were deeply grateful.

That event is now behind us, but the gratitude and growth we gained will stay with us forever.

Now it’s your turn. Take a moment and apply this law to your own life. Write down three experiences where you can use the Law of Polarity. Do it now—you may be surprised at the blessings you find hiding in plain sight.
