For me the LoA is extremely practical. It may not be practical to read about it, but IMO it's very practical to apply it.
Something like you just wrote is immensely practical. Thanks for the article, Steve.

I feel that Steve's writings merely reflect the path of his own personal development. He writes more about IM and LOA now simply because he has grown and evolved over time, and these IM/LOA topics simply represent the higher levels in the overall PD scheme of things.

Yes, I do consider topics like "How to Manage Your Time Better at Work", "How to Deal With Stress" etc to be on the lower levels, in the overall PD scheme of things.

LOL. Okay, LOA people, look carefully at the passage below. Spot the underlying subconscious belief, and then spot its manifestation.

Underlying Subconscious Belief - "Life is inherently uncertain."

Its Manifestation - "I have my plans and wishes, most of them will be manifested, but not in the way I imagined. Whatever happens is NEVER the way I imagined it."

But of course, Toine. You may have your plans and wishes, but if you believe that life is inherently uncertain, then they will never turn out quite the way you had planned and wished.

How does law of attraction really work? If I intend to make more money, and I see a few extra dollars on the floor... isn't that just confirmation bias? I don't see how just having faith in your intentions to make money alone will actually manifest anything.

Is it possible with "law of attraction" to get delusional and think something like money is coming in even though it really isn't?
