 Authentic Self November 17, 2008

Great reading material filled with wisdom and inspiration. I couldn't have read a more appropriate book for this time in my life. I would encourage anyone who is in the process of redefining their life's journey to read The Secret. Through my personal efforts and the written words from The Secret I am living my authentic self.

It's one of the only books that tells of the Great Secret. It's worth every penny, plus a whole lot more!
 What is "The Secret"? This book doesn't really tell you.... November 13, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
You can't tell from this book that there IS "a secret". A better alternative to "The Secret" is "The Law of Attraction: The Basics of the Teachings of Abraham" by Esther and Jerry Hicks. Their examples are much more clear and relevant. Also, "The Power of Intention" by Dr. Wayne Dyer is a more practical implementation of the concepts talked about in "The Secret".
Don't waste your money and time on "The Secret" (unless you can borrow it from someone else) when there are so many other more valuable books on
 Food for thought. November 13, 2008

I read many of the reviews last night. I am writing my review to give others food for thought.
I like the book. The repetitive aspect is to bring the point home. This is how we learn things by doing or reading them over and over again. The Secert for the person who asked what it was.
Ask-with gratitude
trust-with gratitude
believe-with gratitude
Be grateful for what you have, turn your attention, thoughts and feelings to what you have and that gratitude, live in that way and ask for what you want in the same way.
I would agree that the ignore overweight people could have been stated better. Her point I think was more to not identify yourself with the overweight people if you want to have you perfect weight.
One the Holocaust comment. She did not blame the Jews for that, nor did she blame the natural disasters on those in them. There are genocides happening at this very moment in other counties. The Jews were not the only ones that suffered in the Holocaust. She said something in their thoughts put them there at that time and that place. A much simpler example. You are buying a house. You have narrowed it down to two houses. One is in a flood zone, and 10,000 dollars cheaper than the one not in the flood zone. The Realtor tells you this area has not flooded in 30 years. So you buy the house in the flood zone and two years from when you buy your house get flooded. Your thought process put you in the house that flooded.
The science remark of no real scientists would believe the law of attraction is the same as the law of gravity.
Not too many years ago real scientists said it was a fact that the Sun revolved around the earth. They said it was a fact that the Earth was flat. It was scientist that did not accept the "fact" that showed us differently. If those how invent things thought like the people who wrote all the negative review nothing would be invented and they would not have been able to read the book much less post a review from their computer.
On a final note. If you purchase a book and you get one thing out of it that benefits you then the book was worth the money to purchase it. At least that is how I feel about books. You don't have to agree with everything the author says either.
I hope that has provided those reading the reviews with food for thought.
I have learned a couple of things from the book to add to my work on progress which is myself. I do not think it was a waste of money.
