Do you believe in manifesting?

I don't believe in that. although I've noticed some people getting more consistently lucky with these coincidences than others. My mom, for instance. Whenever she needs something, she finds it. Be that a new washing machine or what have you.

I pretty much agree with qq123g. When you spend more time thinking about something, you're more likely to get it simply because you train your mind to work on that thing overtime. You end up more aware of opportunities etc. Or you're more likely to talk about it with friends, who then think about you if they happen to come across such a thing (like the graphics card, wouldn't be surprised if your friend told his friend about trying to "manifest", or otherwise obtain, a GPU.
