May I be quite blunt and tell you what I think?

You would do a horrible job at this. And that's because for all these years, you've searched and searched and all you've really done is spin yourself dizzy round and round in thick clouds of religion and philosophy and existential meanderings and profound musings, none of which feel solid enough for you to trust.
That's what I gather from your posts.
You would do badly trying to convince anyone to take
any particular view of reality ... because you don't even remotely feel sure of your
own reality.
But of course. Look at your thoughts! (As shown in this thread). And remember - thoughts create reality.

This thread commenced in December 2007 and ran actively until end January 2008, and then it basically became dormant.
But in the five months since then, I have systematically continued doing my personal LOA experiment - the same one that I commenced in October 2006 (as I had mentioned earlier in this thread).
The basic methodology is still the same - I record my intentions in writing, promptly after I've done them; and I record the ongoing events in my life, promptly as they occur; and I track the results. Wherever it is possible to use objective measures, I continue to use objective measures.
And what kind of experimental results have the five months, since this thread went dormant, produced? Plenty. It just gets better and better! Let me give you one example - just one - from February 2008, one month after this thread went dormant. I hate to use money as an example again - but you kept talking about "magical thinking" and "objective reality", and well, money is a highly objective and quantifiable measure - either you have it or you don't.

Perhaps it is all, as you might say, just a crazy string of random coincidences. But then it would be ridiculous or me, to draw such a conclusion at the present time. There is just too much objective evidence, for me to behave so illogically.
