I think you're a bit uninformed about how the law of attraction works.
It's actually quite simple. What one obsesses over in their mind, they seek mostly that out in their daily life. Your actions are attracted towards fulfilling your inner-most desires, but there's usually a fear in the way of getting what you want and this creates inner conflict and experiencing seemingly the same unwanted circumstances on loop.
We feel like we can't be "real" with people or even with ourselves because we don't feel free to make the picture we hold in our minds match what we see in "reality." But the only real thing in the way of being free to make it happen are the fears and inhibitions that make us hesitate and stutter every time we try to take a step towards realizing our inner-most goals (the image we hold inside our heads of the "ideal self" and "ideal life").
As long as we keep taking a step forward and bouncing back from those fears, we keep attracting those same, or similar, situations. We can't help but do this because the core of our being (the unconscious mind) finds its only motivation in fulfilling its desire; thus, it keeps bringing us back to the same, or similar, situation so that we may overcome the fear and take the next step towards realizing the desire(s). It's only the superficial persona, the personality that was conditioned through up-bringing, what we all know as the "conscious self," that's creating the resistance to push through and free up the mental energy that's bound by the fears.
Once some of those mental barriers come down, we notice that the quality of our experiences positively change. We aren't as internally conflicted about what we should or shouldn't do (less self-judgmental), we're less frightened by the world in general, and we no longer seem to fall into the same, tired, pattern of actions that lead to the same unwanted circumstances.
The only difference is that the fear is no longer there to stop you from doing what every part of you, besides the "learned" part, knows what's best for you. The attraction to your inner-most desires hasn't changed one bit. You can't help but be attracted to that mental picture. Once all the fears are overcome, all your actions will be entirely purposeful, as the persona will no longer push back out of feeling frightened by change (leaving the "comfort zone") or feeling unworthy due to the self-judgment created by being unsure about which "side" (the persona or the unconscious mind) to trust.
Just in case this wasn't clear, the "attraction" part of LOA isn't some metaphysical phenomena. Rather, it's the unrelenting drive, or attraction, that your unconscious mind has towards fulfilling its desires. It can only achieve them insofar as you, the acquired personalty, allows it by "getting out of its way." So long as you resist you'll feel internally conflicted and generally unsatisfied with your life.
The more that you give in, the less of a "self" that you experience. Your actions may seem to come more spontaneously, as if they control you instead of you it, yet they seem to fit perfectly with the circumstances of the environment, respective to what you want out of it. You still may not be consciously aware of it so much, but your every movement will be full of purpose, aligned with your inner-most desires, and it will scream to the world and make itself known to even the least conscious of beings, through the sheer intensity of focus and presence that this freedom presents our amazingly powerful consciousness with, that you will have it your way...and you generally do when you're so fearless, confident and focused.
