Law of attraction is real

I'd love to hear your breakdown of LOA. 

To me it's very simple. It's the "game" of energies, and the attraction or amplification of that which we ourself invest into that "game". It's nothing magical, it's not concrete per se, yet it manifests that which is concrete from a subjective pov. It's subjectively observable, it's possible to experiment with. It's always at play, knowingly or unknowingly. The "universe" (no point in reading into what the universe might be interpreted as being) provides an attraction of equivalent energies (no point in going into what those might be, or the "charge" they carry, in those terms the "universe" does not value either or). 

What breakdown? I just offered a critique of such. 

[bebotalk]

LOA is simple.

Appealing to the universe via "Ask, Believe, Receive". 

Why not ask what the "universe" is in this process? 

It just seems like a sham. 

And too good to be true.

"Law of Attraction" is an unfortunate name. It should be called the "Law of Attention". Anything you pay attention to or dedicate time to, either intentionally or compulsively, will grow in your mind in some way, and what grows in your mind will manifest in your life in some way. It can be positive or negative relative to any goal or standard you might have. But, especially for the intentional part, the particular way it happens is not so straightforward. That is mostly up to you and how much intelligence you're willing to apply to it.

So are people in Gaza attracting that? Does this apply to all negative occurrences? Seems hard to believe.

@Someone here Hmmm I would not say the same in my experience. Personally I just let go completely of the outcome and just follow my heart. I don’t try to control or manipulate anything so I don’t think to myself oh if I think more this way I’ll get that. It’s not up to me whatever the hell happens if it happens it happens

I learnt from deep connection with the spirit that most of my life is out of my control. I just follow my heart and passion and take time to empty my mind of thought in nature to intuitively gain insights into where I should go next.

If law of attraction is real, then there is some mofo or mechanism in place that takes the things I attract for themselves. Lil parasites. Cause I am not getting it!

I agree . I'm using a vision board and I put it right ahead of me in the wall of my bedroom so that I can see my goals every day when I wake up in the morning and before going to sleep .

Up to now I managed to manifest some stuff and it wasn't just a coincidence or self fulfiling prophecy..a girlfriend and quitting smoking .

It is accurate to call attraction as well. Literally everything is made of vibrations at the bottom level . So your thoughts attract similar signals when you put them out of your head into a vision board .

When you put it like that, it's less accurate, but not invalid, because it's more general. If everything functions according to attraction, then you're describing a more general phenomena. The usual conception has the opposite problem: it's too specific, and unreasonably so (because given the option, you would probably not use it, imo). It says you attract things that you intend to attract, but it misses that you sometimes attract things that you don't intend to attract but which you're inadvertedly paying attention to. But these are really trivial knitpicking points. You can use whatever words you like

Haha its very simple my dude ..when I tell you try to NOT think of a blue kangaroo ..immediately your mind will get filled with mental images of blue kangaroos floating around . Whatever you focus on either negative or positive is attracted . So when you fear something too much too often it will more likely happen..and if you want something so bad so often..the chances of it being attracted info your life will harness.  That's what the law states .think about it as each thought carries an electric charge ..could be positive charge or negative ..negative attracts negative when you think fearful thoughts ..and positive attracts positive when you think positive thoughts .

I think this is what you think the law states (which I mostly agree that it should state and which warrants a different and more suitable name), but I think most people have a more flowery conception of it, hence I was referring to the "usual conception" of it.

 It is flowery 🙂! Its too good to be true isnt it ? I believe wholeheartedly 100% in the Law of Attraction. Two years ago i was about to suicide  myself because i dont have a girlfriend..i just used vision board and practiced manifestation  and in less than a year i met a girl and i fucked her brains out llol. So i don't  just "believe"..but I KNOW! The Law of Attraction is a law of the Universe  just as the law of gravity. But instead of gravity LA works by your thoughts. So instead of an object being thrown or falling towards you..its your thoughts coming to you. Your thoughts are alive and whatever you think creates what you see in your life.
