I say if it’s so great and really works, why dont the lovely authors send copies of their book to people in 3rd world countries?
Below is the best review on the secret:
Please allow me to share with you how “The Secret” changed my life and in a very real and substantive way allowed me to overcome a severe crisis in my personal life. It is well known that the premise of “The Secret” is the science of attracting the things in life that you desire and need and in removing from your life those things that you don’t want. Before finding this book, I knew nothing of these principles, the process of positive visualization, and had actually engaged in reckless behaviors to the point of endangering my own life and wellbeing.
At age 36, I found myself in a medium security prison serving 3-5 years for destruction of government property and public intoxication. This was stiff punishment for drunkenly defecating in a mailbox but as the judge pointed out, this was my third conviction for the exact same crime. I obviously had an alcohol problem and a deep and intense disrespect for the postal system, but even more importantly I was ignoring the very fabric of our metaphysical reality and inviting destructive influences into my life.
My fourth day in prison was the first day that I was allowed in general population and while in the recreation yard I was approached by a prisoner named Marcus who calmly informed me that as a new prisoner I had been purchased by him for three packs of Winston cigarettes and 8 ounces of Pruno (prison wine). Marcus elaborated further that I could expect to be raped by him on a daily basis and that I had pretty eyes.
Needless to say, I was deeply shocked that my life had sunk to this level. Although I’ve never been homophobic I was discovering that I was very rape phobic and dismayed by my overall personal street value of roughly $ 15. I returned to my cell and sat very quietly, searching myself for answers on how I could improve my life and distance myself from harmful outside influences. At that point, in what I consider to be a miraculous moment, my cell mate Jim Norton informed me that he knew about the Marcus situation and that he had something that could solve my problems. He handed me a copy of “The Secret”. Normally I wouldn’t have turned to a self help book to resolve such a severe and immediate threat but I literally didn’t have any other available alternatives. I immediately opened the book and began to read.
The first few chapters deal with the essence of something called the “Law of Attraction” in which a primal universal force is available to us and can be harnessed for the betterment of our lives. The theoretical nature of the first few chapters wasn’t exactly putting me at peace. In fact, I had never meditated and had great difficulty with closing out the chaotic noises of the prison and visualizing the positive changes that I so dearly needed. It was when I reached Chapter 6 “The Secret to Relationships” that I realized how this book could help me distance myself from Marcus and his negative intentions. Starting with chapter six there was a cavity carved into the book and in that cavity was a prison shiv. This particular shiv was a toothbrush with a handle that had been repeatedly melted and ground into a razor sharp point.
The next day in the exercise yard I carried “The Secret” with me and when Marcus approached me I opened the book and stabbed him in the neck. The next eight weeks in solitary confinement provided ample time to practice positive visualization and the 16 hours per day of absolute darkness made visualization about the only thing that I actually could do. I’m not sure that everybody’s life will be changed in such a dramatic way by this book but I’m very thankful to have found it and will continue to recommend it heartily.

Hi Proud USM,
The Secret was a well made movie and good book. However, the Law Of Attraction is more complicated than what the movie teaches. There is MUCH more to the whole manifesting process. The movie should have made that clear, but it did NOT. When people who tried to follow what the movie taught and it didn’t work for them, they started to have doubts and began to think it isn’t real. The people and critics who were skeptical from the beginning were quick to say it’s not real and is a scam or pseudoscience.
(That is part of the problem. The other problem is that many books out there teaching the Law Of Attraction are INCOMPLETE and are more motivational than anything else. Also, they present the information in such a manner that the average person has a hard time putting the information into practical use to get some real results.)
Again, the Law Of Attraction is VERY real but people need to study MUCH MORE into it besides just watching The Secret. You can’t understand Aerospace Engineering math by just learning basic algebra. You need to go further into higher levels of math such as differential equations and advanced calculus.
In order to really understand the true nature of the Law Of Attraction, one needs to study MUCH more into it. Is it no surprise that almost every teacher featured in THE SECRET has their OWN specialized course on the Law Of Attraction?
The popular statement: “Whatever you spend your time and energy focusing on will eventually come to you” is true, BUT NOT THE FULL STORY. It is an oversimplification. You can’t teach someone to bake a special cake by only telling them to ‘get the right ingredients’. You need to go into the specifics such as which ingredients, how to properly mix, the right baking temperature, etc…..If even ONE step along the way isn’t done correctly, the outcome will not be favorable.
So, it’s NOT only about thinking what you want all the time and it appears right in front of you.
There is a step by step scientific process to making the law of attraction work. The problem is most people never learn the whole process. All books (including The Secret) out there seem to give bits of info here and there. Some give too much information, not enough or, are so hard to understand that people are never able to apply any of the information they learn.
If the law of attraction isn’t entirely clear to you, you probably don’t have all the information you need as well as explained to you in a manner in which you can understand and APPLY it.
The law of attraction is something I’ve been studying my entire life. I wrote a book called TOTAL LAW OF ATTRACTION which covers everything ‘The Secret’ left out and is now available.
I also have a website below where you can download the first few chapters of the book for FREE. Try it at no obligation and see if it’s what you’re looking for.
Best wishes!

I do beleive what we focus on or have focused on has partly to do with where we have ended up in life
