Default LoA vs. Magical Thinking?

Just curious on peoples' thoughts/experiences with LoA. I love to meditate and get totally lost in the joy of it, but I feel like it's so much daydreaming, and the things I end up daydreaming about are so completely improbable! Am I just looking for too-immediate gratification?

The purpose IS joy, feel the joy in anyway you can, whether it be daydreaming or meditating or playing a video game, and Law Of Attraction will bring you more joy, in many more ways than you can expect...

Law of attraction, is bringing you things which matches your vibration/emotion....

Ditto Arpee.

And, who gave you those terms "instant gratification" and "magical thinking"? I assure you, it was memorized by your ego and not your spirit. Your spirit is limitless and has no time. Don't be afraid.

False! Some things... we just can't see how they can happen or it's hard for us to believe that they can happen but anything can happen and there are lots of ways that it can happen that we don't know about. And after it happens, it just seems logical and natural and it is. But before it does, it seems impossible.

Thank you for your thoughts, I do actually believe that, that joy is the thing to cultivate. I'm in a space right now where I'm sort of in between- going from forcing/doing/high-ho'ing to just having fun. I feel like my focus for years has been "GET MORE MONEY" and that, obviously, hasn't worked! I'm so tired of worrying and being stressed and forcing myself to read the books and find the right way to meditate on manifesting what I'm looking for, waiting for that one magic "cure"...

I just read Marci Shimoff's Happy For No Reason for the second time (wasn't quite there the first time around) and I realize that this is actually what I'm looking for. I do want more money, but I want it so that I can have more peace in my life. I want a different job because I want to find more ways to express love and joy and purpose, to reach out to others, to be surrounded by people like me... So, yes- feeling the love and joy is essential, isn't it!?
