Law of Attraction Success story

[Laurend0603]

Hi all
dont do LOA constantly but it has worked a few times.
We have been trying for a baby for 4 months and this I wrote it in my notepad I will have a baby in Jan 2021 after finding out I am pregnant the end of April...yesterday the 30th April I got positive test! And they are getting stronger today. We only had sex twice this month just shows! I also made a mind movie on my phone of preg ladies and babies and watched it everyday for visulisation the universe has listened!!

Okay OP,

I break an ankle. Fortunately, there are no complications and I make a relatively swift and complete recovery. I go into a doctor's waiting room full of people and announce that it's purely due to my positive thinking and the benevolence of the universe. Quite simply, my ankle healed because I really, really wanted it to.
Now, the people in this room have various ailments, lots are much more severe than a broken ankle. Some of them will never recover fully but every single person in that room really really wants to. They've spent thousands on private treatment, they've been through horrible invasive procedures. They've prayed to Gods they aren't sure they believe in and, still, no recovery.

Now, not once have I mentioned them or their own ailments but I have very obviously implied to them that, even if they have pancreatic cancer and I only had a broken ankle, they only have to really, really want to get better for it to happen. I likely wasn't being nefarious, just thoughtless, but it's obvious that I've been incredibly insensitive and the right thing to do is apologise and be done with it.

“people making the negative comments will attract negativity into situations”

Nicely illustrates posters’ points about the dark side of the woo your OP talked about.

And criticising woo isn’t negative.

Some people are glass half empty, get cancer and catch it early enough to recover. Others remain positive, like your mum, and die. Because it's fuck all to do with any universe.

Precisely. In order to survive cancer, you need two things, luck, and the right treatment, delivered in time. With both of those, you'll make it. Positive thinking won't save you if you don't have luck and treatment, and negative thinking won't kill you if you do have luck and treatment. LoA isn't even worth addressing, it's such drivel.

The universe doesn't care if you live or die. The cancer doesn't care. If the cancer had any kind thought process, no one would die of cancer, because when the patient dies, the cancer dies with them.

Christ, it so depressing that this has to be explained to grown adults. A clever child would grasp it. Or a bright chimp.

@1555CC I’d put money on it that when she gets home from a hard day at the large hadron collider she shills Juice Plus, skinny coffee or Aloe jizz. The emoji use, tone deafness, inability or unwillingness to grasp simple ideas and the L of A bollocks points towards it.

If brains were dynamite, the OP would struggle to blow her own hat off.

When my DH was diagnosed with cancer, a colleague of his gave him a copy of The Secret.

It was a wicked thing to do to someone afraid of dying... to suggest that if you die you just didn’t visualise a positive outcome hard enough.

It was all I could do not to shove the book up that colleague’s arse.

You should have done, having re-wrapped it in barbed wire.

@kaldefotter
OMG how could someone be so cruel to someone they know. Tell me who it was and I will shove it up their arse.
(Obviously hope you read this before MN delete my post for inciting violence)

@1555CC @Fairyliz

Thank you, I wish I had done something more than just privately curse him. When my DH was eventually able to return to work, I persuaded him to return the book to the colleague, so we would no longer have it in the house.

And my DH is well (touch wood) but due to amazing medical staff, rather than the power of attraction.

Kaldefotter I’m so glad your DH is well now. What an utterly tone deaf thing his colleague did!

Peperethecat, thank you. Mum was an extraordinary person and very well-loved. It’s been 7 years now and so the rawest days of grief are past but of course I miss her immensely. And I know there are many here who have lost loved ones to cancer (and other illnesses).

It’s not that I saw Mum’s positive attitude as a bad thing- it may have made her experience of her illness more bearable, or made her final months more peaceful (psychologically, at least). But it was never going to make a jot of difference to the outcome. Her cancer was already advanced and metastatic when it was found (which is often the case with stomach cancer), and that kind of cancer ultimately cannot be ‘cured’. Cancer ‘battle’ rhetoric and woo thinking can be so frustrating to people who are actually in the situation.

One well-meaning cousin emailed a suggestion about injecting baking soda or bicarbonate or whatever it is that woo people think can cure cancer. I just ignored the email altogether. I didn’t feel it deserved a reply!

Injecting baking soda ffs!

Do they not think that if baking soda worked the hospitals would try that instead of the expensive cancer drugs and chemotherapy?

@waterlego Mum was an extraordinary person and very well-loved.

I bet she was. Anyone who raises their child(ren) to have critical thinking skills, and not buy into all this woo claptrap, is alright by me.

Baking soda.....Christ on a bike.

Op why are you claiming people that disagree with you are negative/ keyboard warriors?

You have implied that the LOA has allowed you to conceive you child, implying that also implies at the same time that those who cannot get pregnant/ retain a pregnancy mustn’t be ‘positive’ or ‘want it’ enough.

If you can’t understand that, then my goodness. Please educate yourself.

@waterlego great posts

Also, we’re still waiting OP!

Why do you believe in the LOA when the LOA also blames people for their diseases and misfortune?

Have a read of tansurfing I've just started to get into it by reading a kindle sample, its like the secret but on steroids, and is a bit less of a selfish book about getting this that and the other, and moe about quantam psychics which isn't clap trap but actually scientific, you'd learn it in school (if you did triple science ;).. i didnt haha so i guess im catching up now )

Yes because it’s actual science to wish for a nice house and then get one

@ghostyslovesheets No, not really. Thats just wishing for something. The more I have ever wished for something the further away it seems to be. The book I refered to isnt the LoA (been there done that) its different and a bit more to it than wishing for something - in fact wishing, longing and hoping is what you should't do... always had a unique view on the world me, but hey keeps me happy

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
