I dunno if this makes sense, and I didn't bother to read the 100-page essays everyone else replied with.
Besides, life shouldn't be analyzed to T. Then you're just not living anymore. :/

Define "negative energy" for me, because that doesn't make any sense. I completely disagree on analyzing life, the more we do it the more we can understand.

That can't make any sense. Power in positive thinking doesn't lie in the realm of physical miracles. Unless you're talking about positive thinking affecting people's self-control to do or not do things that may or may not cause cancer/illness. And if it DOESN'T stop them from that then they simply didn't try hard enough or they're mentally incapable. Positive thinking is just self-discipline..Like I said, training your mind to focus on the good.

No, the kind of positive thinking claimed in the OP is explicitly claimed to result in physical miracles. The "law of attraction" states that you can only get sick if you think about sickness and attract negative energy to your body. Oprah had a guest who claims that she cured her breast cancer through positive thinking.
It's utter nonsense, which I think is throwing people of because they're thinking of self-fulfilling prophecies rather than what the topic was intended to be about.
