Quote from "As a man thinketh" by James Allen:

"Men do not attract that which they want, but that which they are"

<snip>

"His wishes and prayers are only gratified and answered when they harmonize with his thoughts and actions."
James Allen sounds like a very wise man! He sumed it up quite nicely with these two sentences.

I would also like to add that once you become something, you still can't get specific things like winning the lottery, or being able to buy a specific house, or marrying a specific girl. You pick your path and the specifics unfold for you on their own.

Someone who wants control and specific outcomes will become "a person who is fearful, controlling, untrusting and attached" and this path will unfold for him/her automatically.. whatever it may bring... I would not want to find out though..
