    Just read this book "the secret".

    its all about positive energy. And apparently all rich people think positive. And it rubs off on your results.

    Its a good read.

    So think positive. :)

    That's absolutely right.

    It's also my problem. I stress, worry and hardly think positive. I'm gonna work on that.

    Saying all the great peoplein history have used it.

    the "law of attraction" is something very interesting, I guess The Secret made it a little too commercial, but it's still a good way to show people the power of positive thinking, just be happy :D

    "The Secret" is just the repackaging of an ideology that has been around for a long time. Lookup the book called "The Power of Positive Thinking" for an example.

    I haven't read the book, but I've seen the movie. It's called The secret - Law of attraction. Very good movie/documentary. It makes you start thinking positive :)

    Balzak is right, the Secret is indeed a good read, but just regurgitated informaiton re-packaged... Some of those ideals have been around for thousands of years.

    My mother-in-law gaved me this movie. I was very skeptical at first, but I watched "Secret". I have to say it is very positive idea. BUT sometimes is very difficult to think only positive. It is easier if you have loving person in life.

    I doubt all the energy it creates around the universe though?

    Like would the universe even know there are positive thoughts in there?

    I don't know how or why it works... but your thoughts sure do affect your experience of the world and your life can change enormously when you focus on your goals and what you do want... not what you don't want. You tend to get more of what you focus on.

    Okay. Well web directory isn't the best.

    You need good strategies needlessley, you need to spend money. And think positive. Thats the secret.

    I didn't read the book, but only some articles about it. It's a reviving idea that put humanity in the right position...with positive attitude a lot of ways are revealed for us...we become healthier and stronger...the power is in our mind!:)

    The idea is nice; I’ve read about and studied the laws of attraction, not necessarily the movie or book, “the secret”. The idea is backed by a lot of reputable historians and what not, but I haven’t got the chance to watch or read the material, I just have seen the official trailer. I think it misses some essential factors about really achieving stuff, but nevertheless it is okay, positive thinking will attract positive energy, means more success for you. For all believers, you should also read infamous books like rich dad poor dad, and other inspiring books. You would need to put your mind in action to see real results, and you don’t have to work harder, just smarter, go figure ;)
