Well, whether it's "plain and simple" is a matter of opinion / perception. You will have to learn a few tricks on the way.

It's a bit like swimming, you see? When you don't know how to swim, it is so difficult. When you do know how to swim, it's so easy and automatic. UNTIL you decide to try to climb to the next higher level.

And actually there's an inifinite number of "next higher levels" to climb. Refer to my earlier post about conscious creation being a skill. For example, I see the miracles of Buddha and Jesus as representing truly, truly astounding examples of LOA/IM.

(Yes, of course, intention has everything to do with this - were you thinking that they unintentionally performed their miracles).

What about all the people out there not as lucky as yourself or who aren't "LOA Jedi Masters"?

You know, the ones getting home from the crappy jobs and then dispairingly staring into space visualizing a better life year after year but never moving forward?

What about them?
Frankly, I don't know anyone like that. I do know many people who, according to their own accounts:

(i) were originally in quite dismal or unremarkable life situations;

(ii) started practising LOA in one version or another; and

(iii) vastly improved their life circumstances, often with the critical help of odd, seemingly unlikely events (we call them "synchronicities") occurring at just the right time and place.

One of these people is Steve Pavlina. The chap was a juvenile delinquent and ex-criminal. Now he makes more than USD 400,000 a year from his blog; he's inspiring people worldwide to make positive changes in their own lives; and later this year he will have a book published.

What do you think?
