Peleke4 asks a very interesting question, let's take the thread in that direction.

How can we apply the detachment / innocence / openness that is a natural part of "beginner's luck" to other parts of our lives, where we already are steeped with expectations?

At that point, the only thing I knew was hitting point after point after point after point... and winning. How can I transfer that same feeling of conviction where there's absolutely no doubt, that feeling of being totally sure of one's self, to important areas of my life like career, health, personal growth, etc?

You see, I visualize positive outcomes. I feel what it would be like. But there's a hint of doubt within me at times. How can I visualize positive outcomes in career, relationships, health, etc. and have that same feeling of conviction and confidence like I did on the crap tables over a decade ago?

Mostly, I'm learning to let go and trust. Just trust that things will be fine nad things will work out. Another thing I've started to do is use the sedona method a bit more and it seems to be going well enough. A very nice thing is intentions manifesting instantly, like me running down the stairs to catch teh subway and it is really mine, or just barely catching it even though others missed it.

That doubt (I feel it too), I have some ways of getting rid of it. 1 is accepting that whether my intention comes about or not, its ok (this is a concept from teh sedona method, too, that your intentions come fastest when you don't give a hoot whether it happens or not). Another is the idea that that doubt comes from fear, and Sedona Method interestingly says that what you fear is hwat you subconsciously want to happen, so you release on wanting that thing to happen. Its odd, but it works sometimes.

Mostly, though, I have to keep in mind to let go and trust, instead of trying to control everything. It's more "allowing" and "directing" than really pushing or pulling or wanting or controlling. Relax and let go and trust that what you want will manifest, or that you'll find a way. That trust is a bit difficult, at least at first, its a bit of a leap of faith.

Seems to be a message I'm getting from The Intention Experiment, too.

If you believe your thoughts can change your reality or that they can't, you're right.

You'll be waiting a long time to see results if you wait for the facts to show up. You believe things follow the laws of science, so guess what, they do! But consider taking a chance, trying out some new beliefs that you have absolutely no evidence for and seeing what happens. After all, what have you got to lose except a world view that says this is the way it is and you can't do anything about.

Consider it a bit like a science experiment:
Hypothesis: my beliefs affect my reality
Procedure: adopt a belief that you don't currently have, for example "I'll meet someone with a funny hat today" or "My life is full of surprises"
Conclusion: you tell us

And have fun with it, life's much better that way. Even if it doesn't work out you'll learn something new and get to do something different. We're just trying to shake you up and get you on the creative track so we can have more fun together.

I tried already such kinds of experiments, but they didn't work. I tried to manifest a 50-cent coin that i would find somewhere but i didn't find anything in the end.

If we follow your line of thinkin, of believing something that has no evidence of being true, we could believe in anything.

Actually, our subconsciouss does the job for us. If we believe something is true, our subconsciouss will make sure we find "evidences" to confirm our beliefs. Of course, it ignores all the counter evidences, so believing something without having any proof of it (at least until the point i start believing it) makes no sense.


I can start believing in the Flying Spaghetti Monster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and find evidences of it's existence as much as i find evidences of LoA being true in the way that you say.
