Product Description |
|
Fragments of a Great Secret have been found in the oral traditions, in literature, in religions and philosophies throughout the centuries. For the first time, all the pieces of The Secret come together in an incredible revelation that will be life-transforming for all who experience it. In 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. The Secret contains wisdom from modern-day teachers -- men and women who have used it to achieve health, wealth, and happiness. By applying the knowledge of The Secret, they bring to light compelling stories of eradicating disease, acquiring massive wealth, overcoming obstacles, and achieving what many would regard as impossible. |

I'm baffled as to how this is such a best-seller |
|
I got raving reviews from a number of my friends about the book so I decided to buy it. I read it and it was almost completely worthless. The authors say that if you imagine something is yours, magically it becomes so. This point is repeated over and over again from the first page to the last, with little of anything else in between. Waste of money, I wouldn't recommend it. |

The Secret to Financial Success ... |
... is NOT positive thinking, the 'law of attraction,' or any other such nonsense.
When the U.S. economy collapsed in the fall of 2008, one cannot help but notice that "positive thinking" was never, ever, ever proposed as a solution to the economic problems by anyone in any serious position of authority.
Not a single person on either side of the aisle in congress; nor by anyone on Wall Street.
Why? Because 'positive thinking' is simplistic and doesn't work.
Skip this book.

Even without the mysticism it's still good advice. |
People can throw stones at the mysticism all they want but the truth is The Secret can help you have a more positive and productive outlook on life.
Even if you don't buy into the divine and supernatural aspect of the teachings included in The Secret you can improve aspects of your life by looking at the glass as half full rather than half empty.
Even if that's all you take away from The Secret then it's still a winner. |

Another Yawnfest |
Rhonda Byrne just did what alot of other folks have done...taking stuff from the last hundred years or so and reformatting it. It was boring. Having read all of Wallace Wattles, Og Mandino, Robert Collier, it was basically the same pitch, only filled with the same over and over tidbits from the other same people doing the same thing ala Chicken Soup for the Soul.
Basically what it says is, "Stop playing the victim and get into the right way of living!" How do you do that? By praying. Put yourself into a good frame of mind and ask the Lord for blessings, and be grateful.
Just remember, Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You.
Jesus tried to impart The Secret to his followers: You can have anything you want, you can do anything you want, you can be anything you want. Just believe in yourself and live as God intended you to live.
So, be a good doobie while you're here. The rest will fall into place. |
