Where's the difference aside from expenditure?

I'd prefer to keep my wallet intact personally.
You're right -- they are simply two different approaches. As far as meditation/visualisation/controlled thoughts: it never even occurred to me to use those to eliminate the dark, puffy circles under my eyes, or to make my nails grow longer and stronger. For the things that I have tried various techniques on -- sleep, body image, eating patterns -- the results I'm having on PATHS are FAR, HUGELY more in effect than anything I ever got from meditation or any other method. I used to know that I should eat more vegetables, for instance, but I never craved them with lusty delight regardless of them being good for me, the way I do now, since I started PATHS.

Possibly I have not worked "hard" enough for my results before, in other's view. The same people might say I should concentrate my effort on perfecting my LoA skills! Feh! I'm not working hard at all to eat good food, drink lots of water, exercise with gusto, passionately love my body, see my hair growing in with way less grey, have sexier sex, watch my muscles grow beautifully and quickly, and be filled with extreme gratitude and confidence every day, even the cranky ones.

But I'm having a blast on PATHS! If it is only my mind power that's making it work, then it's worth the money to me for the mind power super-boost that I didn't have before. So I spend some money for what you spend your time and effort on. Why would that be a problem? Each to his own.
