With all
the buzz about The Secret
DVD and book, I already had
an idea of what The Secret
would be about. I knew it
was about being positive and
using the mind to create our
own lives. I figured that
reading the book would at
least make me positive for a
day or two so I couldn’t
lose.
As it
turned out, I found the book
was easy to read in small
sections so information
could be digested. This
means that you can work
through it at your own pace,
implementing anything of
interest from page one
rather than having to read
most of the book before
feeling any benefits.
The
information in The Secret
isn’t really new – the law
of attraction, positive
thinking and avoiding the
negative are well known
concepts. What is different
is that Byrne has pulled
these ideas together,
presented them as a single,
simple process.
Unlike
many self-help books, The
Secret focuses on the future
and you don’t need to think
about how the past has
affected you or work hard to
make changes. Simply swap
some of your thinking
patterns and feel a change
in your life.
So does
it work? Many people around
the world swear that The
Secret has changed their
lives, and I believe it
possible. Having read The
Secret, I am feeling richer,
healthier and, more
importantly, MUCH happier
