Is it true that our negative thoughts actually attract into our lives the things we do want?

I have believed things many times so strongly and would be so happy believing things were coming that I desired only to be shocked and heartbroken badly when it did not. Just as I have been confident that bad things were coming in certain situations many times and would be angry and depressed only to be shocked and happy when it did not happen and things went better for me. How do these theories about belief and the law of attraction explain this?

It seems in reality you get what you believe you will never get and you dont get what you believe you will get! How CRUEL to teach people to believe you will have what you desire only to have it not come. Not getting something you want is cruel enough but to have people feel and believe and be positive they will have it and feel it already only makes it a million times more painful when it never happens!

I also have known many who got themselves to believe and feel strongly things would go there way which made it that much worse on them when they went the opposite way. Sending them into depression even suicide! . Again it seems even others get the reverse of what they believe and expect! the reverse happens of what people feel and believe

In fact I have many times instead of trying to pretend things would go my way I have many times cried and thrown a tantrums over bad situations and instead of attracting bad things as we are told it would, it only made me feel better and things actually then went my way. And I know many who use this for ritual magic too. Instead of believing things would go their way they too instead used sadness or anger over the situation and over how they wanted things to change and cried about it to not only feel better but find things then tend to go their way. Again the exact opposite of what these attraction laws of beliefs say

I have said this many times and expected people to argue with me and prove me wrong and instead tons of people have agreed with me and said they have found this to be true for them as well! Some people told me they now convince themselves they will never have what they desire and that before they know they actually get it!

No.

Thoughts aren't magical, they don't have the super ability to effect the world outside of your head.

The idea is that if you think positive, itll effect your attitude and you'll be more likely to try harder or be happier because you're thinking happy thoughts. It won't magically buy you a ferrari.

Neither will thinking negatively. The idea there is that you always lower your expectations so you're always presently surprised when good things happen.

But the fact is you can't control 99.999999% of the crap that happens to you, it's all based on circumstance and if you have a good attitude about it, you'll be happier even if it's all bad.

No. Thoughts are superficial, while beliefs have power to move the invisible to bring whatever you believe into your life.

Negative beliefs cause the invisible to bring negative experiences into your life and positive beliefs cause it to bring about positive experiences.

I wish that it was the case.

A person can be more positive and less pessimistic by reciting the rosary each day with care.

I have never wanted to be bit on the butt by a werewolf.

That negative thought has, AS OF YET, not attracted a werewolf into my life, to bite me on the butt.

In YOUR humble opinion, what are the odds that this WILL eventually happen?

"Well....that would explain Fireball not leaving."

And, it also explains a POS like Risky returning...

Well....that would explain Fireball not leaving.

The beast the LEGEND understands what you mean. It seems like everytime the LEGEND is present all the atheists log off on here. We know they are scared of being intellectually schooled by the LEGEND.
