What I'm looking for is the stuff that makes me go "Wow." The stuff that has no real logical explanation, or at least less of one than: decide you want a job, send out resumes, go on interviews, get a job offer. I agree with OlderWiser -- that isn't really LoA. I mean, it is, but only at its most basic. That is the sort of work that we can find information on anywhere.
Personally, I'm looking for the magic. I'm looking for this sort of thing: Somebody applies for a ton of jobs and doesn't get any offers. He explores IM and LoA and begins visualizing, meditating, dreaming, writing affirmations, whatever feels right for him. He begins living this new reality of this new job, accepting that it's already a done deal and now he's just calmly waiting for it to appear. Maybe not always calmly.
Maybe sometimes he's frustrated, upset, ready to throw it all out the window, maybe sometimes he's afraid he'll never find what he really wants. But most of the time he's calmly going about his life, still sending out resumes, still going on interviews, still doing his resarch, and still working with his IM.
At some point, out of the blue, he gets a call from a place he'd been turned down by several months ago, long before he ever started his work with LoA, and now they want to offer him a job. In fact they want to offer him an even better position than he had originally applied for.
That's where I go "wow."
