The reason why I said LoA was broken is that its supporters claim "You get anything you want". At least, that's what I heard. Maybe that's just marketing talk, and perhaps this phrase has a little star in the corner pointing to the footnote with all the tiny print.
The footnote is as follows:
It doesn't say "You get everything you want" it says you get everything you intent. But humans have not the ability to control their own thoughts to an extend to intent "everything you want".

andy, i understand the theory you are trying to convey about SR. However, it still points to the fact that everyone and everything you are dealing with in your life is, essentially, yourself. Therefore, what is the point of reaching out and making more friends or seeking a mate? Why not look within yourself and look for love there?
If everything and everyone you are dealing with in your life is yourself than where is the difference between making more friends and looking within yourself?

And it still doesnt explain the need for human interaction that most of us cant deny ourselves.
You belief that you have a need fpr human interaction that you can't deny yourself, therefore you can't. That would be the explanation in the LoA.

Talking about this in terms of “bad news” or “bad judgment by business leaders” seems archaic. It’s like describing World War One as “a serious diplomatic concern.”
