If you're asking whether state of mind effects your physical performance, the answer is yes. As for visualization, it's been show that most successful athletes use this technique and that the proper application likely does improve performance or, at least, the chance of success.
If you're asking whether the sentiments in this article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_Attraction) will make you a better tricker, the answer is that less time spent philosophizing and more time spent tricking is going to make you a better tricker.

Sure it will...but just like most esoteric belief systems, it's only a small factor in a bigger equation. "Believing" is important, but that doesn't mean that's all you need to do...drilling, training, conditioning, and prerequisites are also very important as well.
This is Sesshoumaru by the way :tongue:

what??
The law of attraction is attracted to me, the laws of poetry in action is practiced quite activley
But yeah the law of attraction is an eccentric build up on common sense.
The way you think about things affects how you act. I.e. Emotion manifests thought thought manifests actions, actions manifests reality. If you say to yourself that a trick is impossible, you are less likely to be able to achieve it because your negative thoughts make you act in a negative way. That is, you will pull out/not put in 100% into the move.
However, if you think you can just think about things and they will happen via some sort of supernatural/unexplainable causations, not only in tricking but in life, you are quite wrong.

plus comme attraction between your face and the floor.
god, i hate all the philosophical shit that people try to pin onto tricking.
Each to their own Andy! It doesn't need to affect you. Let people believe whatever they want, no matter how silly they seem to you.
It doesn't affect you, so don't even let it. Unless people start trying to pin their bs thoughts to you, there is no need to ever worry about it at all.
I also hate all the philosophical shit that people try to pin onto tricking, but I DO believe that visualization works. When I used to do double backs, I would always watch myself do it in my head, and then watch it again but do it perfectly. Then I'd go do one, and survive :ogre:
