Did some manifesting today.

America,
Today was a day that can be used as an example of the concepts that have been discussed here.

While everyone was convinced that it would rain on us at our race, I used a bit of positive thinking and said "it is going to be dry for our race". Notice that I avoided the use of the word "not" in my statement.

It was dry for our race.

Now that doesn't mean by any stretch of the imagination that positive thought can control the weather. What it means is that I chose to experience a dry day. I know what you are thinking, "what the hell are you talking about Brother?".
What I am talking about is quantum reality. The understanding that every possibility is happening all at once, and that it is the observer that chooses (consciously, or subconsciously) which possibility he/she wishes to observe.

Now we have advanced from the concept of our thoughts create our reality to our thoughts choose which reality we will experience.

Ah, but maybe several people have conflicting choices of what they want to experience. It could happen, but the deciding factor is a person or persons who are aware of the possibilities and chooses consciously what they wish to observe, and has the least amount of doubt for what will be experienced.
