"The Secret" Do you believe in the whole concept?

Posted: 10.06.2007 at 01.31
Hey guys,

I have been looking into the "Secret" and yes the theory has been around for many years. I am in two minds about it. I have been visualising my future and nothing happens, this is the same for many people. To be honest I believe you make you own luck. The theory is that if you think positive thoughts that good things will come to you, and if you think negative thoughts that bad things will come to you, If this idea about visualising you future works why hasn't it for all those thousands of people who are in poverty, 3rd world and many other devastating situations. I am sure they have visualised their future to be more than what it is

I believe it has some positive ideas that you can change the various aspects of your own life; it helps to have a positive attitude.

I would also be interested in that physics course....dpd let me know if you end up going

I have a question - what about things like hypochondria - people that think about being sick all the time, but never actually get sick?

ok the website is www.relationshipsandyou.com.au

the website doesnt tell you much, you would be better off giong to an information/graduation night.

these courses are honestly the best things i could have ever done for myself. I didnt want to do the first one, i was sceptical, and my mum pushed me - and thank god she did. I will forever be greatful to her for that push!

hope everyone is having a great weekend xox

There is indeed a great deal to this. Positivity is so powerful. I learnt it from a person that amazes me in the way she approaches life and has recovered from a trauma. She is a far far better model than I am, a far better person than I am, a hippy happy girl that seems to live life so much more deeply than many. She lights up not just her own life but many around her. The words on her myspage page and in her blogs are well worth a read. http://www.myspace.com/theveryenglishkim Sucess and happiness just fall on her.


I would recommend people explore some of the books and courses and ideas that ppl have mentioned above and others, for I have found that exploring the mind and its capabiliies, as worth while as exploring the world:) It will not just help you be a model or in whatever career you are in, it can more importantly, make you live- really live and appreciate what living is all about.

You definitely reap wot you sow.
I have never read it, it hasn't given me any indication that it is a 'secret'.
I live by it every day of my life...its never been a secret, I got it when I was a child but have just in the last couple of years learnt to embrace it...and allow it to be positive for me!
I wake every day and I am grateful to be here, to be me and to be surrounded by all those that are dear to me...as I know all too well that it can all be over in the blink of an eye.
I believe that you are who you surround yourself with...it is a true reflection upon yourself & some people live in denial and some don't.
I also believe that just because you are spiritual or you find processes like 'the secret' it doesn't mean you grow wings and become angelic and life is one big pot of gold at the end of the rainbow...its a learning curve and can be what ever you want it to be if you are willing to embrace it and more importantly, allow yourself to embrace it. Its not about being positive all the time, its about being human & capturing it in your every day life...and allowing yourself to be true to none other than you.
People come about you any way, if its good to you then its good for you. Hahaha...go plump dj's.
But yeah, you come in contact with negative people no matter how positive you are but it is how you deal with it...how you absorb it, if you absorb it!

Other books that are good are:
Michael Rowland - Absolute Happiness (dpd Michael does courses which are valuable too)
Terri Hatcher - Burnt Toast
Shakti Gawain - Creative Visualisation
