Default No reversing here!

A very important line from Think and Grow Rich applies here. (paraphrased because my book is elsewhere)

Quote:
An educated man is not one who has accumulated a large amount of specialised knowlege. An educated man is one who can gain anything he wants or it's equivalent without violating the rights of others.
How is this relevant?
Look at the words...

Quote:
...or it's equivalent...
Sometimes LOA will not bring us the exact thing we -think- we want, but something that is it's equivalent or greater.

You said you intended to get those horses, but really your intention was to get good breeding mares. This overriding intention will ensure that if you stay on track you will get mares which are the equivalent or better to the good breeding mares intention.

You didn't want those horses because of what they were, you wanted them because you thought they were good for breeding. One of them at least wasn't.

You got exactly what you intended, it didn't get reversed.
