And to the non believers i say experience is the evidence. If one is not a believer and the loa is all ways working than wouldnt the universe give what you put out there, I wonder how many skeptics are conscious of the energy they put out into the universe, would they possibly get more reasons to question...dont get me wrong question everything. I just see a lot of folks who do not walk in a conscious state I am a believer and i smile saying that!

You are right, the LOA IS bullshit and these things are just thrust upon people-in the same way that villainous or 'miserable people' roles are thrust upon actors in Hollywood. Why did a perfectly nice man such as Anthony Hopkins take the role of Hannibal-in the Silence of the Lambs. I think he was subjected to the role by the director's decision. See where I'm going? Anthony Hopkins enacted a serial killer in the movie, doing the most despicable acts, yet-he was lauded for his work. Now for argument's sake, let's assume that for a while, we all FORGET that we are watching a movie. Jodie Foster forgets that she is acting, and all the characters believe themselves to be what they are in the movie. Now, from this perspective, the question to ask would be-I am sure there is no director-for who would allow this man to commit such despicable tasks? The fact that Hannibal is a killer proves that there is no LOA, and he was just made a killer due to circumstances and not due to his own choice!!! When we realize the movie that this life is-then all the death disease war etc makes sense. Its all part of the grand story. And when the movie's over-the actor is as clean as he started-with no effects of the actions of the movie visible on his persona.

Does this sound similar to the essence of the LOA? Yes-the secret may have window dressed a lot of things-may have talked about materialism. But the reason is that it was AIMED at such an audience. when someone is struggling to pay their bills they are really not concerned with spiritual freedom. Also, material success is usually the first step that leads to self discovery. The other thing is that the Secret teaches you to take responsibility. My childhood was scarred because of my parents, my love life sucks because of my partner, I am poor because of this scheming world that is out to get me-these are self defeating and destructive thoughts-that completely sap your enthusiasm to work and achieve things. Being positive, realizing that you are the one responsible for yourself-is at once extremely empowering and downright scary-it finally depends on how you want to look at it. Nice article-but let me quote from the Holy Bible

Mark 11:23 (King James Version)

23For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

I found even stranger that all of the other LoA books and blogs repeated this pattern. I grew up with a tireless work ethic and the high profile supportes of LoA (Oparh, Will Smith etc.) all have an intesive almost insane work ethic also. Smith even said once in an interview that the only way he'll be outworked by anyone is if he's dead! I am really big on how your thoughts effect your life and I constantly monitoring my thoughts to make sure that they are in the positive realm. However, actions do determine outcome.
