Comments on: The Secret Remixed: It’s Not About The Stuff! http://www.balancedlifecenter.com/204-law-of-attraction-in-context/ Inspired Living Tools, Tips and Teachings Sun, 20 Jul 2008 14:12:12 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Janet G http://www.balancedlifecenter.com/204-law-of-attraction-in-context/#comment-42586 Janet G Mon, 24 Dec 2007 23:08:08 +0000 http://www.balancedlifecenter.com/204-monday-musings-what-do-you-think-about-the-law-of-attraction/#comment-42586 I was given The Secret by a friend & shelved it for a couple of months til another friend told me I should watch it. I am a very skeptical person & watched the DVD with, well, skepticism. However, it really had me thinking because there was no avoiding the reality that everything I own, do and/or have in my life I thought about it, worked for it, acquired it, brought it into my life and gravitated to it ...on my own. Anyway, at the time I was having some relationship issues and was willing to try anything, so I went out bought a slew of magazines & cut & pasted photos & words pertaining to what I wanted to draw towards myself. It worked. I got everything I wanted. I then bought 5 copies for my friends. Two of them are avid Secreters now & they too are having results. A few things about the Secret is that you cannot "dream", "want", "wish", "hope", or "doubt." Some things take time, even months, others are instant. The mind also thinks in "absolutes" & its best to never to Secret words or ideas with two meanings (no idioms.) When I started Secreting I started with a few small material items, which came to me within days. This gave me confidence & I was inspired & motivated. The main thing to me was my relationship, albiet, I took into account that I may not attract the person I had my heart set on, so I stayed open to the fact that so long as I aligned myself with the "truth" and Secreted the "right person for me", then I'd be happy with that as well. Also, you have to remember that when Secreting relationships, it's a completely different vibration & energy, so you have to constantly Secret & shape the ways it will work for you. Also, people who Secret things which seem way too out of reach for them, should start by Secreting the way in which they will attain their goals. I heard of one woman complaining she Secreted her "dream car" & "a dream home in Italy", then she lost her job & lost all hope. Maybe she lost her job because the universe was guiding her to a new job which paid better so she could afford the car, or maybe it was her opportunity to move to Italy. Also, she used the word "dream" in front of each goal. The mind will translate "dream car" into precisely that, a dream. Also, never Secret using the word "you", instead use "me" and "my" and "I." It's tricky stuff but through trial & error I am still perfecting it and am now moving onto other things which I will soon have, do and enjoy. Hope this helps. Happy holidays.

A few things about the Secret is that you cannot “dream”, “want”, “wish”, “hope”, or “doubt.”

Some things take time, even months, others are instant. The mind also thinks in “absolutes” & its best to never to Secret words or ideas with two meanings (no idioms.) When I started Secreting I started with a few small material items, which came to me within days. This gave me confidence & I was inspired & motivated.

The main thing to me was my relationship, albiet, I took into account that I may not attract the person I had my heart set on, so I stayed open to the fact that so long as I aligned myself with the “truth” and Secreted the “right person for me”, then I’d be happy with that as well. Also, you have to remember that when Secreting relationships, it’s a completely different vibration & energy, so you have to constantly Secret & shape the ways it will work for you.

Also, people who Secret things which seem way too out of reach for them, should start by Secreting the way in which they will attain their goals.

The original version of The Secret was better appreciated by beginners. Many people do not really understand the real secret, Law of Attraction. Most of them just think that by having positive thinking is all that is needed. By having positive thinking is only a start. We need to inject emotion and more into our thoughts before any manifesting can occur. Manifesting can occur in many ways, like opportunities turning up unexpectedly. But if you do not take action on it, it is as good as none... however when you have that passion and belief in it, I am sure you would have jumped at the chance! Your readers might be interested in this Bob Proctor interview report in which he shares with us what he thinks of the Law Of Attraction : http://www.abundanceattracting.com/bob/ Keep up the great content in your blog! ;) Love, Alison Belle is right.

One of the coolest things I learned from Abraham-Hicks is that "the stuff", as fun as it can be, isn't the main event--it's choosing to be happy, empowered, good-vibe-y, and focused on the present moment, no matter what happens (and knowing that you can) that is the real point of working consciously with the LOA. The stuff is just sort of "dessert". Hi Nneka,
