^ Yep, you're right, you hit the nail on the head. Where are all the millionaires? Where's Oprah saying she used the LoA? Where's Scott Adams (creator of Dilbert) admitting he used the LoA in The Dilbert Future? Where's ALG and his top-3% income in his home country (I don't know whether he's a milliionaire yet, but I'd reckon he's close)? Where's Steve Pavlina who found his income shoot up significantly after he started using IM? How about Andrew Carnegie, who commisioned Think and Grow Rich?
Where are the people featured in the secret, who, one would assume, have substantial wealth? where's the Univeristy of toronto graduate who made somin like 15 million dollars in 15 years, and attributes it to Loa? How's the olympic gold medalist who now teaches the LoA?
Deepak Chopra recently released a DVD called Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, basically a video version of his book. Its like a cross between the Secret, What the bleep do we know and not-so-goodness. Where are the musicians and actor/directors featured in it?
How's about Jim Carrey and who gets synchronisities and has used LoA techniques, such as writing himself a cheque before he got paid for it?
How's about the people who are "possibles", simply because the LoA says that what you think comes into being, so they just choose to think a certain way. Richard Branson might be doing that when he goes off an island whenever he finds himself thinking negatively? Where's Will Smith who believes in the powre of positive thinking?
And let's remember, that the LoA doesn't necessarily need "practice", just changing ways of thinking. One would assume that there's a certain way most successful people think, and that at least some of them didn't have to learn to think that way, so they might just watch the secret and go, "Yea, I've just always done that." sorta like Oprah did.
The IM hypothesis, asusming its correct would tell predict that your skepticism would attract more skepticism and disevidence. Alternatively, you are here and you are receiving at least some form of evidence (whether you believe it or not is upto you), so there is at least something in your thoughts that's attracting IM. So, if LoA is correct, unless you take control of your thinking, you'll keep encountering the LoA.
Yar.
