According to you, LOL.
According to me and my personal experience, lots of things come quite automatically the LOA is used correctly.
It's important to bear in mind that your personal action is quite useless in a wide variety of situations. For example:
1. When you are unsure and uncertain on what kind of action needs to be taken.
2. When the situation is complex and depends on various factors which are beyond the influence of your personal actions
3. When you are already physically strained, stressed or exhausted, and trying harder merely strains, stresses or exhausts you further and increases your probability of a heart attack, ulcers or nervous breakdown.
Your own action is an important way by which your thoughts manifest. It is however only ONE way that your thoughts manifest. It is not THE only way that your thoughts manifest.
If it WERE the only way your thoughts manifest, your existence must be a highly simple one, eg similar to that of an earthworm's.
Many forummers here are already at, or have passed, the stage when they recognise that their thoughts are generating sychronicities. Often the examples given are unmistakeably meaningful and yet unobstrusive and subtle and could have been easily overlooked if you were not attentive (eg lyrics of a song you suddenly hear; a conversation you overhear at a cafe between two strangers etc).
What some of these forummers haven't seen or realised yet is that synchronicities can be loud and unmistakeable. They stick themselves right in your face such that you can't possibly ignore them. In other words, you're manifesting.
Eg you manifest a holiday in Tokyo. Next day, your big fat boss comes to you, stands in front of you and says loudly to you straight in your face,
"
I need you to fly to Tokyo on very urgent business NOW. You need to meet a Japanese client tomorrow, on the 15th, and another Japanese client on the 19th. But on the
16th, 17th and 18th, there's actually
nothing to be done, so I suppose you can
use those three days to tour Tokyo, if you like."
In terms of action, you did NOTHING to manifest this. In terms of thought, you did EVERYTHING that manifested this.
"Oh yeah," adds the boss. "Just charge the company for the food and hotel accommodation for those three days too. But we're not paying for the Tokyo Disneyland entrance fee, okay?"
