I don;'t believe that is possible. I know it isn't.
For the Positive thinking -Positive Imagaing - Visualization magic to work, you have to be able to make your mind believe it is possible or obtainable.

Do you know why visualizing a parking space works most of the time?
Because there are lots of parking spaces, and lots of people.
The odds of a parking space becoming available are quite good.
Just curious. But how many of you are lottery winners?

Don't do lottery, odds are terrible. But since the secret I gamble half as much but win twice as often. Or should I say half as often, twice as much.Do you know why visualizing a parking space works most of the time?

Well, if "The Secret" works as well as you fellows think, you should contact Jame Randi, as he offers a cool million dollars in cash for proof of supernatural phenomenon.

Slut, , , , , 
I can't complain; I can park in midtown manhattan within 20 yards of where I'm going.
Always. Without looking. 24/7. When I want a space, someone pulls out right in front of me. There's always lots of time on the meter.
My wife says it's because I'm infertile.
Bitch. . . . . .

The secret which is not a secret. So it all starts with a lie in the title.... 
As long as ur grabbing lines for ur sig shnk.... one of my sayings is:
If it's a good deal buy two, if it's free, take three.
I take two parking spaces by the way, because I have several 350 dually's and the dang spaces are made for circus cars nowadays.....

I guess it is easy to knock or bash a book you haven't read. Or anything you haven't tried.
Be like if I come on here bashing anything I have not tried or studied.
I 'm always amazed at people who visit threads just to bash them . What kind of people do that, anyway? Makes me wonder what kind. Certainly doesn't show good manners or any consideration. We used to call people like that Bashers..now they call them Haters here....or trolls.

the Haterade Quenches their Thirst.., I don't understand it either Rose, Why bash the people who are tyring to find a common ground and relationship with them, to change the attitudes of the people that find no room to tolerate each other of any opposing view.... Why you Ask? It's self evident I believe..... Haterade

I can only assume they have no friends who are equals so that they can discuss what they have in common. They have nothing in common, I mean who starts a I HAVE NO FRIENDS thread? Or I AM A HATER AND TROLL thread. So they seek their opposites, so at least they can pretend they have friends.
If the shoe fits, they will wear it, so we'll see them posting here again. You know like they say, the bit dog always barks.

It's a public forum.
When you speak in a public forum, expect to be challenged.
When you present a claim such as "Thinking positively makes parking spaces appear", you are demonstrating what is called "magical thinking".
Magical thinking doesn't work any more than random chance. A positive outlook can decrease internal stress, but it hasn't been proven to open up parking spots and it doesn't kill pancreatic cancer in someone if you think happy thoughts about them.
If you're convinced that it does work, I really do suggest you contact the James Randi foundation because if you're able to show that it works, you will be a millionaire, and we'll have opened a whole new area of study into legitimized paranormal research.
The real "Secret" is that if you write books and shoot videos that tell people they can improve their lives with out actually having to work toward it, people will buy up your books and DVDs and you might have a million dollars that way too. On second thought, that may be easier than getting James Randi's million.

I think you assume too much. I am quite familiar with the book.
If you know me on the religious threads (and you do), then you would know I do not believe in anything resembling destiny or a plan of any kind.
The idea that you can forge the future through the present is novel, but a bit silly.
The law of attraction is nonsense. It's just another new age twist of an age old story line to sell product. You'll notice in the book that everyone has something to sell.....
This is hucksterism, pure and simple.
No bashing is needed...... a bit of logic may help tho.

Yes, but placebo is not the "law of attraction".
