Most of the leaders in the past missed the great part of The Secret, which is to empower and share with others.

The Secret is the law of attraction! Everything that’s coming into your life you are attracting into your life. And it’s attracted to you by virtue of the images you’re holding in your mind. It’s what you’re thinking. Whatever is going on in your mind you are attracting to you.”– Rhonda Byrne, The Secret My problem was with the way this was written, first the format was very crappy; it is just quotes from experts on the law of attraction without good examples, without good explanations or good editing. The book gets redundant very fast because it has one idea only and it keeps running in circles around it! The authors claim that the law of attraction is like any scientific law and that is something I find impossible to believe. Scientific laws are easily interpreted and measured and have their equations and they can be quantified! I can improve their is gravity and show you good examples of it. If the best you can do is giving me stories about people, then that is not enough to convince me, I can write a book like this and come up with such examples from the top of my head very easily! The book is small, which I like somewhat as it is very portable, and the magnetic closure is convenient - and pretty strong! It feels good in the hand and looks like an ancient leather book with embossed words for "Thank you" in different languages on the cover.Take the first step in faith. You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step” – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Your power is in your thoughts, so stay awake. In other words, remember to remember.”– Rhonda Byrne, The Secret 6. “You must focus on abundance to bring more abundance to you.”– Rhonda Byrne, The Secret This could be a reassuring message for some, particularly since it relives you of the exhausting work of having to appreciate the world, all its interactions and how we are all implicated and bound up with one another - allowing you to get on with the business of being judgemental instead. Call me jaded, but these people have been drinking the kool aid. Don’t get me wrong- I embrace and appreciate the power of positive thinking and believe that an optimistic frame of mind can go a long way. But, The Secret is a bit extreme. The core of The Secret is the law of attraction, which basically says you attract what you think- think it and it will come. It says that you simply need to ask, believe, and receive whatever you want from the catalog of the universe. One part says, “It is as easy to manifest one dollar as it is to manifest one million dollars.” What?! I could find one dollar from the change that has fallen into my couch cushions. I am hard-pressed to believe that there is one million dollars floating around in there. The Secret would tell me that the million dollars is not in there because I don’t think it is possible for it to be there. My frame of mind is inhibiting me from finding that million dollars. Even the biggest optimist has to get real somewhere along the line.

Still my favourite part of this book is a fine example of how irrational the rational world of business can be. Byrne encourages readers to write down things they are grateful for every day and to focus on positive emotions such as joy, love, and gratitude. The book is beautifully designed, with inspirational quotes and affirmations sprinkled throughout, making it a joy to read. The grants, rights, and releases made hereby are irrevocable.

I'm not sure if I will use it, have had it for a day and have been carrying it around - deciding if I will write in it or give it away as a gift to a true devotee. Often when people first hear this part of the Secret they recall events in history where masses of lives were lost, and they find it incomprehensible that so many people could have attracted themselves to the event if there is a Hebrew edition published in Israel is this sentence removed? The idea doesn't strike me as incomprehensible so much as repulsive but I do appreciate that she wasn't coy about her opinion and just came straight out with it . . By the law of attraction, they had to be on the same frequency as the event. It doesn't necessarily mean they thought of that exact event, but the frequency of their thoughts matched the frequency of the event. If people believe they can be in the wrong place at the wrong time, and they have no control over outside circumstances, those thoughts of fear, separation, and powerlessness, if persistent, can attract them to being in the wrong place at the wrong timeIn this book, you’ll learn how to use The Secret in every aspect of your life—money, health, relationships, happiness, and in every interaction you have in the world. You’ll begin to understand the hidden, untapped power that’s within you, and this revelation can bring joy to every aspect of your life. By all means, I'm all pro positive thinking. I'll go as far as to say that: yes, negative thinking gets you nowhere and that positive thoughts healthier for you - the glass is half full and all that.... BUT..... Jeez Luise! This book is just up there next to Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist: worst self-help fantasy BS ever written. People go through their whole lives chasing everything in the material world, and they fail to discover the greatest treasure of all, which is within them.”– Rhonda Byrne, The Secret This is the best time to have ever been alive in history. It's the first time we've ever had the power to gain knowledge at our fingertips.
