Surprise. I am also a skeptic. In my cynical moods, I am one of the most skeptical persons you will ever meet.
Although LOA had apparently led to some unusual previous events in my life, it is logically possible to dismiss these events as coincidences. Strange coincidences, but mere coincidences.
That's why I decided to start on a clean slate, forget all those past events and conduct my own
personal experiment from scratch. Quote:
Two months later, some results since then:
Acting Like Godot: Quick Notes
include:
1.
one promotion;
2. $104,000 arriving in one lump sum;
3. Four new
job opportunities spontaneously
coming to me (I had not actually applied for any of them, only manifested for them to come);
4.
one new job (where I will be one of the youngest persons to hold the title of Director - a senior position, even though I'm crossing over to a new career area);
5.
record readership at my other blog which focuses on social issues and concerns in my country. I even received an
invitation to speak at a conference with some prominent academics and politicians.
6. a couple of
odd synchronicities
7. kid
getting promoted ahead of her class (no intervention by me, the principal recommended it herself) after I manifested the intention to raise smart kids.
8.
breathtaking investment
performance
9. Moved from zero exercise to
running quite seriously
10. The Education Ministry contacted me,
requesting for permission to include my poem in the official national syllabus for literature.
Etc etc. I have to tell you that in the days before I started consciously using LOA, such things did not automatically happen in my life. Eg I most certainly have not been getting $104,000 in lump sums; job offers do not spontaneously flock to me; I do not get invited to speak at conferences with academics and politicians; my creative works do not get included into national syllabi for literature etc etc.
Anyway, my experiment goes on. I am reaching out for ever more and more outlandish and ridiculously ambitious goals, and calling on LOA for help. Some of my
latest goals include:
- attaining professional standards in guitar playing
- publishing a book by the end of the year
- winning three national literary awards in a single year
- becoming the
top industry expert in my country
- approximately doubling my financial net worth in the coming year
- running 10 km under 45 minutes
Etc. There are also many other little things I've been attempting to do with LOA, that I didn't blog about. For example, I had a persistent & mysterious skin irritation on my thigh for weeks - I tried various ointments and creams and they didn't work. I did a LOA on it and it healed within 2 days. I thought to myself "Mmmm ... perhaps it's only mere coincidence." I can't dismiss that possibility. Still when the coincidences keep adding up, and adding up .....
