    * I don't care who thinks I am a woo woo for posting this, it has to be done! Too many miserable depressed people out there who can benefit from this information*


    What is the secret?

    The secret is about the laws of attraction and how we 'attract' things to us with our thoughts, whether they be positive or negative thoughts.

    The phrase 'be careful what you wish for' is the essence of the secret!

    I have always known through experience that thoughts can manifest things, and have used visualisation techniques to achieve results. I have also sadly noticed how my negative thoughts can manifest too, if I spend too long thinking about them!

    I did think this was an unknown phenomenon, but apparantly it is not. It is well known amongst the rich and successful who may have used this knowledge to get what they wanted.

    There is a film about this 'phenomenon' called 'The Secret'.

    http://www.thesecret.tv/home.html

    It says this on the site for the film:

    " For the first time in history, the world's leading scientists, authors, and philosophers will reveal The Secret that utterly transformed the lives of every person who ever knew it... Plato, Newton, Carnegie, Beethoven, Shakespeare, Einstein.

    In this astonishing program are ALL the resources you will ever need to understand and live The Secret."

    I do not know what causes thoughts to manifest, but I have found it to be the case all my life, if you focus for prolonged periods on a particular train of thought, with viusalisation etc.

    So, give it a whirl. Lose your negative outlook, think positive and see what happens. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

    Pass this knowledge on!

    Let this secret be a secret no more!

    Dont confuse people, the video is not about positive thinking, its about controlling the events in your life as u want them to happen.

    The problem with this is not that it is "woo-woo", but that if you want a system of sorcery, there is far better systems out there that have a legitimate heritage of people claiming "they work", compared to the watered-down, Oprah nonsense.

    PJ, I have found this to be true all my life so Oprah not required. This is just first time I found out it was not so common knowledge.

    I've written about this stuff many times before, not sure how long that film has been around but I only heard of it this last week.

    I would recommend against supporting the movie, though. The movie is filled with crap and from the same peopole who gave us the wildly inaccurate "What the Bleep do We KNow?"

    Oh my god, not you too?

    I saw this "secret" special on Oprah.

    They were using every trick in the book to appeal to the audience, and even oprah was falling for it. While some things they said might be true, it was mostly unscientific bullshit.

    I got pissed off watching that show watching the American public buy in to it.

    But the problem is that it works.

    Even though manifestation is undeniable (from my personal experiences), no one can deny that manifestation works, but the law of attraction is just new Age BS, I believe manifestation works, but not through the law of attraction.....

    The Law of attraction is great new age BS....

    On that I probably agree, I don't know how it works, just that it does.

    I would be very wary about this movie or the book to be honest.

    The only people getting rich out of it are the one's behind it. Positive thinking is one thing, but this takes it to a whole new level. For example:

    To keep it in perspective, the creator is Rhonda Byrne, a TV producer in Australia who produces shows such as The World's Greatest Commercials.

    Seriously, it is basically a get rich quick scheme and I think the only one's getting rich are Byrne and her little helpers.

    Yeah, it could be psychological, you know you unconsciously control all of your actions, thoughts, speech, etc....so you if you change your deep unconscious thoughts then you'd unconsciously be getting yourself into certain situations, acting in a certain way for your desire to be fulfilled, saying certain things for your desire to be fulfilled, etc...this would all happen unconsciously (without you knowing), as if by magic...

    Either that or it could be like the many-minds interpretation says...

    I won't be buying the book or the DVD, these things aren't of interest to me, and I never said they were.

    I found the quote from the site of interest to me hence I used it. I supplied the reference to the film as that is where I got the quote. No other reason.
    I am not here to promote them!

    O am here to promote the fact that thoughts manifest things. For me it's an old tune I'm singing.

    The locals will have heard this tune before from me!

    I think the problem lies in how this thought logic is applied

    "the secret" says something like "have happy thoughts and happy energy will attract more hapiness to you"

    in reality it's more like

    "have happy thoughts and you will perceive everything happier"

    Imagine:

    Thoughts, feelings and actions = Electrical impulses.

    Electrical Impulses 'picked up' by neutrinos (or something similar but undiscovered yet)

    Neutrinos orbit vast areas of the universe, they visit places that can decode the 'messages' that the neutrinos picked up and reprogram them.

    Neutrinos travel back to earth and dump the new programs into life forms.

    Evolution takes place by the new programs giving lifeforms whatever they wish for, in order of priority.

    Conclusion: The world is in the shit state that it is, because we get what we wish for without thought of the consequences.

    Just imagine.

    Most of the information in the numerous self-help and motivational books and movies is absolutely useless to me. I haven’t read anything new since I read an NLP book three years ago. These books and movies usually help me in the moment when I’m reading or watching the information, but it doesn’t help me on a daily basis.

    I don’t think that people can really manifest anything that they want in life, but having a positive or negative attitude can change your perception of reality. An optimist and a pessimist could be living in the same environment with similar privileges, but they could have two completely different perceptions of reality. A person’s perception of reality is shaped by the chemical reactions in their body. High levels of dopamine, serotonin, and endorphins can make your city, town or country seem like a beautiful place live. And high levels of glucocorticoids can turn your environment into a hellish place. Optimistic people also have an easier time forming relationships with the people that can help them obtain the things that they want and need in life.


    The Man Who Thinks He Can!

    If you think you are beaten, you are;
    If you think you dare not, you dont!
    If you'd like to win, but think you can't,
    It's almost a cinch that you wont.

    If you think you'll lose, you're lost
    For out in the world we find
    Success begins with a fellow's will;
    It's all in the state of mind!

    If you think you're outclassed, you are;
    You've got to think high to rise.
    You've got to be sure of yourself
    before you can win the prize.

    Life's battles don't always go
    To the strongest or fastest man;
    But sooner or later the man who wins
    Is the man who thinks he can!

    Is this not possiable, and if it is, couldnt we start recreating a world that is not in such a "shit state". It is amazing that everyone believes Murphy's law, but not the opposite.
