I was reading PJE's blog Live your dreams, or die trying (dirtSimple.org) about his new self-help program. What he wrote is "a self-help program should not depend on the existence of psychic powers or the supernatural!". That's a quote from a man that has been into self-help for more than 20 years and tried a lot of stuff.

This is the reason why I don't like LoA and I-M and why I respond to this thread. You are doing yourself harm if you depend on a law that's been created in someones head and cannot give you concrete proof on how it works and why it sometimes doesn't. Sure it might work, but when it fails you'll fail miserably.

Because once it fails you'll blame yourself for making the intention wrong or not having a proper skill to attract, hence you'll try harder to make the intention. That will bring your focus on something completely irrelevant. Because you believe in the supernatural you won't see the real problem. You won't see where you have failed as a HUMAN BEING. You will be stuck in a false belief system that doesn't allow you to grow, because it depends on something that is beyond you. Realize that you are just human and you make mistakes. There are things that are physical and real, that help you. Things that are natural and are proven to have helped human beings from the beginning of time. You can also see why it doesn't work and what to do about it.
You must eat to survive. Food is something real and you KNOW it helps you. And there are real things in this world, that are concrete and proven to help you. If you dream about a better life, if you want to achieve your goals and live them, base your ideas on REAL ideas. Don't ask me to define "real", you know what I mean.

I believed once in LoA, for a couple of months actually. And it worked, but sometimes it didn't. I started analyzing it, after a time of blindly believing it and I started to notice patterns. I gained more knowledge and now I understand why it works and why it doesn't. There are concrete ways in which you can help yourself. Intention-Manifestation just takes a little piece of what actually helps you achieve. If you don't see that, then you won't take advantage of the full arsenal of real solutions for yourself to make you get what you really want in life.
