 Proud to be on "The Secret" bandwagon... August 30, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was skeptical about this for many months with all the hype about it. After hearing numerous friends & associates recommend it, I finally caved and sure glad I did. This books is wonderful with helping you refocus your energy/dreams into what you desire. I will continue to recommend it to friends, family & business associates. Happy to have joined "The Secret" bandwagon. LOL
Great Book to have! August 29, 2008
This is a must read book. It is amazing how we can control our thoughts to bring happiness, health and wealth to our lives. I highly recommend it!
 Very poorly written August 28, 2008
I am very thankful I just checked this book out from the library. This book just reitterates common sense. This book talks in circles stating the same thing over and over and over again. Very boring to read, and poorly written. Don't buy this book, it would be a waste of money!
Life Changing August 28, 2008
I absolutely Love the secret. I have the book, the audio and the DVD! The Secret was put together so well. I have always known about the law of attraction but after "The Secret" my life has completely changed.
I highly recommend it!!!

The books reminds me of the Biblical saying "even the prince of darkness appears as the angel of light". The author of this silly book proposes that we believe the Cinderella story is true--that wishing and hoping will cause desired items and events to materialize.
I learned this magical thinking was not true when I was a young child. The baby of a neighbor died and our whole village of 100 in rural Minnesota sank into grief. Grown men and women wept and I, a young child, believed that if I prayed, the baby would come once again to life. I knelt on my little knees and I prayed but, of course, even the sincerity of my prayers did not yield the desired result.
Now that I am an adult, I realize that the magical thinking of fairy tales needs to be left behind and that instead of believing in magic we need to believe in principles. Instead of magical materialization and the "law of attraction", we need to believe in love for our neighbors, justice, freedom, service and sometimes even sacrifice.
Indeed, the greatest among us have always believed in these great principles and not in the "law of attraction". Instead of magic, the greatest among us have always believed in hard work.
