Your perception line however is kooky.
Pretty straightforward Aristotelian. Dunno what's so kooky about it.
To the greater or lesser degree a person's thought processes are in line with reality, they are better or worse off, respectively.
To the degree with which I am aware of the rampaging rhinoceros behind me, is the degree to which I am capable of surviving or avoiding a rhino mauling.
You can apply this to anything in importance from whether or not dogs can look up, (Not super important or life effecting.) to donating 10% of your income to some preachy con artist, (How bad that is for you depends on how much money you have, I suppose) to the rhino scenario. (Pretty damned important.)
Yes, there are varying degrees of importance, obviously. Having said that, woo woo is a waste of time. If you don't mind wasting time, go with the woo woo. If your time dedicated to intellectual pursuit is important to you, you should abandon the woo woo as soon and you recognize it for what it is.
The "Law" of Attraction is no law. It is woo woo nonsense and a waste of time. A rabbit hole. Whatever you want to call it. It's the same crap that Wiccans and Hermetics and crystal waving goofusses and crappy evil German philosophers have been talking about forever.
Having said that, in the grand scheme of things, it's probably unimportant and semi harmless. Unless you use your amazing mental powers of universe manipulation to try and win at the stock market or other risky gamble, of course. Then you're just another sucker who's out a bundle.
The only thing that "wanting very badly" can do for you is maybe motivate you to take action. Nothing else. Ever. Unless you can prove it with repeatable, testable evidence.
A double blind experiment- Get a coin. Write down on a piece of paper which side you
want to come up more. Hand that piece of paper to a second party, in a closed envelope. Don't tell the person what the test is. Just that when it is all over, to open the envelope and read the results. Have a person in another room with a sign that lights up with a plus or minus. This person is to log the number of plusses or minuses, they have no idea what is happening apart from recording the results. Flip the coin one thousand times, each time signaling the outcome as a plus or minus. WILL the coin to land on the side you want it to. (And wrote on the paper.)
If there is a discrepancy of more than 3% in favor of your chosen side, I will
personally offer five thousand dollars to start a study on the validity of the LOA.
