oh, it does really work. Usually subconsciously. When you consciously want to attract something or someone, it gets a tad more complicated. First of all you have to really want it, as in really really want it, it has to come from your core. Secondly, it must be pure. So not out of greed, fear etc. and it shouldn't harm anyone else in the process.

And often you will have to work on certain issues first in order to make the LAw of Attraction work. For instance, if you'd want more money, not even out of greed, but just so you could lead a better life, or do something you really really really want to do (from a pure heart), you may still not attract money as long as you still have negative thoughts and convictions concerning money.
Many ppl have negative feelings toward it, anger for instance because they always seem to struggle financially. Or the conviction that they will never be able to make more, are destined to remain poor and so on and so forth.
In those cases you will have to work on those issues. You cannot ask the Cosmos to help you out and make more money come your way, if deep down you believe you aren't worth it. In that case you'd send out two, contradicting, messages. Could result in getting some money your way, but then the flow will stop again and/or you always lose every bit of extra money that comes in.
That's another thing, getting more money to come to you is one thing, being able to hold on to that money, is another. How many of us don't know the scenario of getting money in unexpectedly, being ecstatic about it. Then a huge bill comes in or your car breaks down, causing you to lose all that money again.
That could be the result of contradicting messages: asking for more, yet being convinced you're not worth it or any other negative thought concerning money.

With love it can work the same way, if you feel you aren't worthy of love, or still hold anger towards the other sex and so on and so forth.
Also, you can ask for the right partner for you, but don't make it more detailed. So you're not going to ask for a slender brunette with blue eyes, 1.70m tall etc etc. You do NOT know what the right partner for you looks like, so don't fill that in, UNLESS there's one thing that you absolutely need or want. For me that is his height. I do NOT want a man shorter than me.

OH, and when it comes to a partner, focus mainly on how YOU will feel around that perfect partner. You can -and should- do that as often as possible. So when you're driving to the supermarket, going for a walk, sitting on the settee watching a movie, cooking dinner etc etc.... during all these moments, think and really try to feel how you'd feel if your perfect partner was there with you.

If you want to know more, get the book in "The Power" from Rhonda Byrnes. It explains how it works, and just reading the book will make you more and more positive and open to working with this Cosmic Law. I know I was beaming when I was reading that book!

You ppl notice the following as well? It always has me flabbergabbered...

Right now I'm kinda tuned in to Alabama as my girl lives there. And the last week or so I suddenly get tons of PMs here from men that live in Alabama.
Weird.

Once I was into an Italian dude, suddenly got loads of interest from Italian men...

Another time I was doing a lot of reading on Scotland, both fiction and non-fiction. Suddenly got lots and lots of PMs from Scotsmen...

You guys noticed that kind of stuff too?
