Donald Trump wants to be the biggest real estate developer in the world... he does not care all that much about money... he said himself that he's not after making money... but about making a statement... Same thing with Tony Robbins... he gets his charge by helping people and not by counting his money... If you focus on what you want to accomplish and not on what you want to get... you'll earn a bundle... it not, you'll join the ranks of those who will eventually have to say, "I tried, and I tried, and I tried... but it did not work..." . |

| I love your goal of winning the lottery. In addition to your visualization of your feelings as a lottery winner, i suggest that you change your beliefs about the posibilities of winning. Brainwash yourself everyday with phrases like "i win the lottery often" "the more I play the biggest my winnings" etc. |

Your point about want is interesting, it's a fine line between wanting something and focusing on it's lack. The word want implies lack. Instead of saying 'I want this' or 'I will have this' I would say "I choose to have this now" We only create in the moment anyway, so might as well place the order in the present Max |

| Actually if you do the whole process of IM correctly, you will probably win the lottery at some point. The thing is though, a big intention like this is very hard to manifest because of the sheer resistance our thought process and logic tell us. There is a difference between wishful thinking and actually attempting to manifest. Read Steve's articles about IM to see what I mean if you have not. Not having a shred of a doubt about winning the lottery is a very difficult thing. The amount of money spent on lottery tickets will be astronomical, and may carry alot of emotional baggage. Trust me, it's not like you can just turn on a switch in your brian and say "See ya" to your natural thought proceses and logic right away. It takes time. I personally don't think its worth it, it's a very risky intention to fulfill and there are much more efficient ways to use the LoA for financial prosperity. Just me $0.02 |

| What is the big deal about winning the lottery...??? There are currently over 8,700,000 millionaires (in U.S. money) in the world... and how many did it by winning the lottery...??? And, to make matters worse... most people who do win the lottery are dead broke a few years after winning it... So, it there are over 8,700,000 millionaires... it also means that there are over 8,700,000 ways of doing it... so, why chose the lottery.... How about using a little imagination here...??? . |

It's not the money you want, its the freedom to live life as you desire. Don't go after the money. Most likely you won't get it. Sorry to disappoint you. You may want to reconsider your intention. You may be wishing for the wrong thing. The money may give you total freedom, and you will be rich, but it can't buy happiness which from what it sounds like, is what you are truly after. Strive for happiness and freedom to live life as you choose, and let reality manifest itself according to your TRUE DESIRE. Don't think you'll win the lottery, thats a complete waste of time. |

| This subject is actually addressed directly in one of my favorite LOA collections (I believe the one in my signature link). The question asked in the book is do you want to be rescued? The author claims that winning the lottery is the same as being rescued, or inheriting the money. Will that give you the satisfaction you need and provide you with what you are looking for? Is the end desire the satisfaction of beating the odds, or having the lifestyle? If it's the lifestyle you really want, then listen to what many others have said - focus on that lifestyle but not on how it will happen.

| I have been thinking that way since Mother's day , I have purchased 6 - 649 tickets one each week , and out of the 6 tickets purchased I have won 4 free tickets to me those odds are not bad...... I am still in the game , I see myself able to pay for my step daughters wedding in Sept, I see my bakery and possibly my "soup Kettle" opened up...... I see another cruise in the near future feelings have nothing what so ever to do with this, it is almost like feelings* have seperated themselves from this happening - totally seperate just my vision ( picture) of it all happening, I see the responses from family , after the winnings, I hear the nay saying responses now....... |

| I just read about the desire for winning the lottery. And I am a little confused by some of the reactions. Is this whole concept not based on law of attraction and do you not preach that all you have to do is as for it and it is yours. That we create what we want in our lives. I understand what she is saying, visualizing and really seeing how it would change her life. Is that not what this is all about. You know for so many years I have seen people around me get things with great ease, some not so nice either. So how is it that good things happen for bad people, and yet the nicest person gets stepped on. I think there is a little bit of confusion in your theory. I understand or at least think I understand why I am still in the rut I am in. I have never felt like I deserved better, that stems from some pretty cruel words as a child. Unfortunately we take those negative thoughts with us throughout our lives, the bad is always easier to believe. But I have finally just begun to train my mind to erase all that negative thinking. And now here I am in a forum that just crushed a woman by one negative sentence. You told her it would never happen. Why not. Isnt that what has been preached here. Ask for what you want visualise what you would do, feel how it would feel, attract that from the universe and you will recieve it. So please clear that up for me and for the woman that believes she will win. You just keep seeing it I hope you get all you want. |

The reason behind the ones responding negatively is, they've not fully learned the meaning of you live in your own Subjective Reality. You don't live in someone else's objective reality, (as corporate owned Media likes to portray), you don't live in someone else's subjective reality, (as religion likes to portray) but in your own Subjective Reality. If a person bring up words like "The statistical odds are more in favor of you birthing a cow, then winning the lottery", well then what is that person's worldview who says that?

| Why? What is the money going to get you in the end? Happiness? |

Most likely you won't get it. If you're saying that you don't understand who or what you are. You are pure emptiness, that can fill itself at any moment however it feels like. You want money, fill in the blanks. Simple. |

I can list you at least twenty people who had money and fame who killed themselves because they had such miserable lives that they could not take it anymore... you could start with Marilyn Monroe, all the way to writer Ernest Hemingway... Money is only a tool... not a producer of happiness as most people think... . |
