Changed my view on life... July 24, 2008 Loved this book... great life examples. Teaches you how to view life in an optimistic way and in turn get the things you really want. I highly recommend.
'Feel good' philosophy July 22, 2008 The title sums it all. 'The Secret' is revealed in the first few pages of the book and the rest of the book just elaborates on 'The Secret'.
You become what you think so think positively, act positively, entertain positive emotions and curtail negative ones. If you want to live happily, think about being happy, if you want wealth think about it, if you want good health think about being healthy and the list goes on and on....The placebo effect is given utmost importance.
If a storm or a natural calamity kills masses, it's because of their thinking which happened to be negative in some capacity, totally unknown to them - Give me a break!
Abundance is the way to go. The book advocates 'Giving' but undermines 'Sacrifice'. Because, 'Giving' indicates prosperity and abundance and 'Sacrifice' indicates poverty. A tremendous let down to conventional religious patrons.
The book might be helpful if you are in deep distress but fails to impress any sane rational thinker. The author tries to substantiate her holistic approach through some quantum mechanics etc but doesn't do a good a job. If you become what you think and you think positive about yourself and 10 others think negatively about yourself. What happens then? What if 100 or 1000 think negatively about yourself. Are the effects totally and utterly negated against you? If you don't want to think much and just want some 'feel good' philosophy, then this book is for you and you will probably enjoy it.
Essential reading for people without a clue. July 21, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
"The Secret" is fine for anyone who never read anything about this subject, or had a training or anything at all. It is basic. But didn't teach me anything new.
The Secret July 21, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
The first step to your own personal evolution. The truth about who and what you are and how you can make the most of your present day position.
No evidence any of this works July 21, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
If you are the sort of person who thinks it rains because you are in a bad mood, and not the other way round, this book might be for you.
If you are the sort of person who thinks the sun orbits the earth, this book might be for you.
If you think the earth revolves around you, this book is probably for you.
Thought experiment: I know the secret. You know the secret. We both want to win the race. Who gets it? If said whoever wanted it more, you probably already read this stupid, stupid book for stupid, stupid people.
