Default "Law of Attraction" or personal intention

My problem with the LoA is that you may in essence be giving the responsibility to the "Universe". I believe that LoA works primarily because your constant demands on the "universe" are actually constant demands on your subsconscious which now (unknown to you) is looking for cues and clues to get what you want (via an activated reticular activating system/RAS).
It's not a coincidence you "found" a parking space or money on the ground - now your subconsciuos is looking for it.

So, what/who do you think is more responsible? you or the universe? I've left out the option of "both" on purpose...

Maguru will become famous soon enough
Default unique new car

It's like when I bought a new car that was an unusal colour and make and I thought pretty rare. As soon as I'm out driving there are loads of them on the road that I hadn't seen before. I'm sure I was fully focussed on my new car but I am sure as hell I didn't manifest the others. ha ha
