Is there a remote possibility that you are ,due to your programming (beliefs), simply applying the LOA in a manner that proves you "have" to do something. "have" to take action, can't simply "ask and receive"?

There is a big 'catch 22' attached to the LOA in it's most literal interpretation.
If it works , it works all the time, even if you don't believe in it.
If it works and you don't believe it does , your reality will reflect this, even if you "play" with it and "test" it. If your basic belief is that it won't work and that only action gets results, sooner or later you will prove to yourself that it won't work and only action gets results.


If it doesn't work, it doesn't work, and the sporadic results I have achieved as well as the results others have achieved are figments of our imagination and we delude ourselves with our attempts to repeat these delusions. If I did not have personal experience with real results I would go with this explanation, but the same logical mind that kept me away from this stuff now keeps me interested because of what i have seen.

My feelings about your conclusions are that you have simply proved to yourself what you want to (or have to) believe, that we live in a purely mechanistic universe that has no underlying or innate intelligence of it's own and only through brute force can your desires be fulfilled.
