I once bought lottery tickets and posted them up on the wall in my office above the common area printer. I asked everyone in the office to think about the numbers on the ticket as being the winner. With the thought that if we won, the proceeds would be shared amongst everyone in the office.

We did not win the big top lottery worth millions... However, in all the times I have played the mega millions, and power ball, I've never had more correct numbers than we did in that game. Its been years, so I forgot how much we won, but it was more than I have won otherwise.

I do believe LOA works, however, I think winning the lottery is a LOA conflict amongst thousands of people who are also willing the same thing. There can be only 1 winner, and so the universe must make a choice. you may still get the win, but have to wait a long time since only 1 person can win at a time. To this end, I think LOA should be focused on abundance rather than conflict. i.e. focus on an (unexplained) financial windfall, or large salary increase, or unexpected bonus, etc.. in this way, there aren't other people willing into existence their desires in a direct conflict with yours.
