Great idea. Let's start a wish list.

The two times I've mentioned, on EP or here, about a man (two of them) I find attractive, I've ran back into them within a day or so of writing about it. It happened again tonight, and we spent a lot of time having a conversation about a mutual interest. Just before we parted, I noticed the wedding ring, so that put paid to any ideas I may have had for future possibilities. However, it made me think that if I were to write about my dream man and post on here, then maybe I'll run into him too in the next 48-hours. It's worth a try, don't you think? Genius! Definitely do, definitely don't forget to specify what he's not wearing... |

I hope it doesn't work in reverse. You can never tell with these things.

Great idea. Let's start a wish list. I actually wrote my wish list a few years ago, and posted it on EP. However, I was still married, and not open to meeting another man in real, but maybe I am now, after being single for 10-months. I'll just repost it, and see if the magic works.  |

When I was a kid, my brother and I believed when fishing, if you looked away you would get a bite. |

Lol I haven't been looking in 26-years, and never had a bite. |

Well, that's the other problem with that system. Most of the time, we WOULD get bites while not looking. But we were not there to set the hook. Opportunity lost. |

Come to think of it, maybe I don't need to post the list. The fact that I just mentioned my dream man on this forum may be enough. I'll let you know 48-hours from now. |

A *happily* married guy can make for a comfortable conversation with no expectations. Good practice.
And then there is the philosophy of making your wishlist known. Resources and opportunities appear magically when your interests are well known.

Laugh if you want, but I think things like the Law of Attraction, positive thinking, etc., really can work.
I started studying up on stuff like this around the beginning of the year. I was at the end of my rope; I felt awful. Somebody, I don't remember who, recommended that I read "The Secret."
It's not that you just visualize what you want and it appears. It's a little more complex than that, and the path to what you may not be smooth; there may be detours.
But you know what finally sold me on this?
When I practice the positive thinking methods, I'm in a better mood.
It would be worth it for that, even if nothing else happened.

Dunno if that was me, but I'm a fan of The Secret. They have a video version as well. For others... the premise being, if a) you clearly define your desires / goals, b) keep your goals in mind, and c) share your goals with others... you will be gradually working toward your goals constantly, even if it's just tiny steps. Others will help you reach your goals simply because they can; but if they don't know, they can't help. I'm mentoring a guy at work; just general career guidance. Well, it turns out he has an interest in changing career path to field XYZ and also wants to move to the US. It so happens that my team is a flagship for XYZ, so I'm hooked into a ton of related groups, including an internal apprenticeship program with residency, etc. Will it all come together for him? Who knows. But if he hadn't voiced his desire, the connection could never have been made, and resources that will help him with his goal would never have been presented. As I say about goals... it's amazing how much you can achieve in life if you define your goals, and how fast the years go by if you don't. |
