Actually, there is a genuine intention, whenever someone does one of these "red hat, blue feather" type of experiments.

And the intention is to find out whether the Law of Attraction is for real. The desire behind that intention can be quite real, as real as somebody's desire to find out, say, whether God really exists.

Yes, I know that inherently the experimental design is flawed. A superior experiment, design-wise, is simply to intend as follows:

"If the Law of Attraction is real, then I intend that the universe will show this to me, in a way that I find convincing and persuasive."

And leave the rest to the universe.

Nevertheless, the "red hat, blue feather" type of experiments can and do work, as many people on this forum have already previously discovered.

On the passion issue, it really depends. Passion is definitely helpful, but generally a person is passionate only about what he (subjectively) considers to be the "big things" in his life. However, if passion is a necessary element, then IM/LOA would never be able to help you with the "small things" in life.

Again, as many people on this forum have already personally discovered, this isn't true. IM/LOA works in a wide range of circumstances where you aren't feeling any passion at all, but would just like a quick, easy, convenient solution to a relatively small problem (eg finding an empty parking lot really fast).

In my personal experience, IM/LOA can work very well even for intentions where you don't really have any passion. What you do need is a calm, clear, focused mind when you do your IM/LOA on those intentions. The clearer and calmer and more focused your mind, the better.
