Law of Attraction

my dear Wikipedia says:

The Law of Attraction is commonly associated with New Age and New Thought theories.
It states people experience the corresponding manifestations of their predominant thoughts, feelings, words, and actions and that people therefore have direct control over reality and their lives through thought alone.
A person's thoughts (conscious and unconscious), emotions, beliefs and actions are said to attract corresponding positive and negative experiences "through the resonance of their energetic vibration."
The "law of attraction" states "you get what you think about; your thoughts determine your destiny."
Many proponents of the idea claim that with practice a person can use the law of attraction to change their lives.
However, the idea has received intense criticism from multiple circles in the media, the scientific community, and even other areas of the New Age Movement.
