Actually, I don't think you have to believe in LoA for it to work. The proponents all claim that LoA is working all the time whether you believe in it or not.

I think that to use affirmations, you have to have some faith. Because otherwise it will seem silly and your ego will reject them. But affirmations are just a way to bring your focus to what you want in life, and your focus determines what will manifest in your life through LoA. I have been using Negative affirmations to sidestep my ego with good results.

I think of LoA as more of a strategy. If you want to reach certain goals in life, what is the best way to structure your thinking so as to have the best chance of achieving them? I believe that focusing on your desired outcomes makes much more sense than the alternative. I don't Believe in the mystical side of LoA, but I'm not ruling it out either.
