I read the Secret, did some experiments, found that sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't. I still do affirmations because sometimes they come true (and sometimes not) - but the investment in repeating a few words is negligable and it cheers me up and makes me focus on what I want to achieve.

However I now understand why Orange 45 keeps saying that Covid19 will just disappear, it'll go away, it'll be a miracle. Poor little love, he's trying to use positive thinking on it. Without of course getting off his bum and doing something about it.

What he's forgetting of course, is that every little covid19 particle is virally thinking "wanna reproduce, wanna reproduce" and there are umpty-kazilions of them out there, all focussing on that one thing - "wanna reproduce." He doesn't stand a chance.

He should really have stayed a reality star.
