No it's not amway...
Its a philosophy that states that you essentially invent your world from your thoughts. "The law of attraction" It's a book, film, and a meditation on audio you can purchase at Borders or online at The Secret.com. I had a hard time with it at first and by no means am I a die hard Secret embracer! But, the principals do make sense and more than that they seem to work, when really put into practice... The film is the easiest, quickest way to get it... ;)

Edit: I guess I should clarify. Yes I actually do follow those principals for everyday life, so I guess calling it what I did before I edited it would have made me a hypocrite.

Power of positive thinking, creative visualization, whatever you want to call it -has been around for centuries. It's nothing new, and it works great when you're working towards a very specific goal that requires great focus.

The part that IS complete horseshit, in my opinion, is when people attempt to use this stuff to alter the will of God (yeah, screw you all, send this off to SC :S) or karma or fate or whatever the hell you believe in.

You can't cure cancer or become skinny and beautiful 'wishing'.

All i know is im tired of selling that book, i work in a book show and everybody is looking for it? i havent read it myself but its it basically things like believe in your self and all that jazz? im interested in knowing if its not the same as all the other phychology self-help books? and what exactly makes it so different?

My problem with the secret and its ilk is it misses the most important step:

Work your ass off

Which, of course, doesn't sell videos/books/CDs/speaking tours/personal life coaches or whatever. I wonder if I can visualize the rain breaking and the clouds clearing...



Hell yeah...

The one with the biggest house I've even seen (and gaudy as all hell) with diamond shapes on his gate.:S

Oh, and he's into Monavie now.

It actually does work for some people, but...you know, I need my beauty sleep at night.:P

Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
