Hello, you! you beautiful, amazing manifestor! 
I'm new here! I'm so glad I found this forum! I must admit I've been lurking for a while now so lately I felt like jumping in the water and maybe trying contribute a little bit, if I can. 
I want to thank you all for all of the great advice and success stories I found in here. Such a treasure! that's really great, and I'm so thankful for it. Just thinking about this forum existence puts me in such a better feeling place! so thank you, everyone. 

Things I have realized about the LOA and life in general:
-There are all kinds of ways to manifest. Some think about a thing, then get happy and let it go. Some continue to flow energy into their target. Everyone has a way to go! and that's great, each should do their own thing.  Yay!
-The LOA is such a powerful law! everyone use it without even knowing about it. What keeps them from realizing their thoughts actually create their reality is inlt the time lag. Lately, I started looking back on my thoughts when I manifest something. And low and behold- most of the time... You can go to the root of the manifestation. For example, once I thought- when someone wants to manifest something large, before trying to do that, they should gain confidence by manifesting something small, first. So, I thought. How can one know if they actually manifested a feather because they wanted to? there are many feathers on the street! How would you know you were the one to manifest it if it it just one feather? and how can someone ever manifest a pink feather? it doesn't make any sense, since you can't see these on the street. If you would, it would surely be a sign about LOA! so I forgot about it and just got happy and did my own thing. About a week later, my sister came to me with a little plastic envelope. "Do you want it? I've got nothing to do with it". So I looked, and the little nvelope was filled with cute, colorful feathers, mostly pink ones (!), that had little circles on them. When you manifest something, look back to the source- that is, your thoughts. You may be surprised. 
-Positivity and good vibes puts your manifestations on turbo mode.
-You learn something in life when you need to, when you feel prepared. 
-We are all one. That's why these things work on a quantum level!
-When you're open to new experiences, the universe opens the doors of abundance for you. 
-The universe is kind to you when you let it be. You should open the gate, with your mind.
-If you decide to be happy... This is when all of the fun begins.
