Recently, I received this question: I work with somebody who is my best friend, but I'd like him to be my boyfriend. If I make a picture of us together, and focus on it, will it manifest itself in this reality? In other words, does the LOA work with people? The LOA or Law Of Attraction is an occult concept that goes in and out of fashion. It was recently (re)popularized in the book The Secret and the industry that has developed around that superficial treatment of the subject. Here is the response I sent to the questioner: Dear__________ I know that sounds like a very easy question, but it actually has a LOT of issues to it. Does the LOA work with people? The simplest answer is "yes."
