It amazes me that some of the same people who dismiss LOA readily believe in a God who may or may not exist, either. There is no proof of God's existance except a book that tells us so. Sort of like LOA, right? The naysayers are in fact proving that LOA works. How? Well, if you do not think that LOA works, then it won't.
For those people who insist that action is required, what about people who have worked their entire lives and still end up miserable and with nothing? They got up off the couch, but they still do not have what they want. Seems like something is missing there.
The reason that I believe so strongly in LOA is that I was the person who worked very hard, did all the "right" things, and still woke up miserable each and every day. What LOA taught me is that in the end, it is about self-worth. If I do not believe that I deserve any of the things that I am working so hard for, then they will not come, no matter how much I work for them.
So..I still get up every morning, go to the same job (so I am not using LOA to have money fall into my lap...although I am not dismissing it, either
), and do the same things that I was doing before I was conscious of LOA. The difference is that I love myself. I go to work with a smile on my face. I get up every morning and ask, "How can I create my day?" Instead of "Oh geez, what does the day have in store for me NOW?"
So...I guess you could say that LOA has made me take responsibility for my life. Instead of praying to some God "up there" , I realize that I have control over my thoughts and feelings...and my life. Sounds good to me.
