What is RAS? The Scientific Foundation of the Law of Attraction
What is RAS?
RAS stands for Reticular Activating System.
It’s a bundle of nerves in your brainstem that determines what you perceive as “important” — essentially, the filter of your life.
Every second, 11 million bits of information flood into your brain through your five senses. Within 0.5 seconds, RAS sorts through this deluge, deciding “this is important” and “this can be ignored,” narrowing it down to just 40 bits that reach your conscious awareness.
In other words, the “reality” you see is constructed entirely from the information RAS selects.
Why writing your goals makes them come true
The Law of Attraction. The phenomenon of “writing your goals on paper makes them real.”
This isn’t spiritual — it’s a physical mechanism in your brain called RAS.
RAS as a search engine
When you clarify a goal, RAS labels that information as “important” and begins surfacing related information into your awareness.
Examples:
- The moment you decide “I want a red car,” red cars suddenly appear everywhere
- When you think “I want to start a business,” business ideas start flying at you from every direction
This isn’t coincidence. RAS is extracting information from the world according to your intention.
The scientific basis of the Law of Attraction
Behind the phrase “thoughts become reality” lies the function of RAS.
Your brain is programmed to treat consciously set goals with the same priority as information necessary for survival.
Therefore:
- Repeatedly write your desired future
- Read it daily
- Visualize it with emotion
These actions teach RAS “this is the top priority,” causing you to unconsciously pick up opportunities and optimize your actions.
How to intentionally manipulate RAS
As the author of the world’s first comprehensive work dedicated solely to RAS — RAS: Reticular Activating System — I systematized this mechanism and established a practice called RAS Journaling.
Through the act of journaling (writing), you imprint new settings into RAS and redesign your life’s filter itself.
