Part4. and this group is very likely to be attracted, since they might need help the most.

If they get in to serious visualizing and DON'T recieve a fat check in their mail, DON'T get the job they hoped for,

DON'T get well from that disease or DON'T lose weight - naturally they will blame themself, thinking that they didn't do it the right way.

So it's their own fault, they try again and nothing happens, and now they REALLY get depressed. (Last words in part 5)

It is probably useless to say I couldn't agree more. thank you for your great input.

- yes, there is actually the xyz-cortex, reticulum, whatever, that even gives a scientific explanation why goal-setting works. you may have also read "psycho-cybernetics" by maxell maltz, who noticed after plastic- surgery people did not see any changes even if half of their nose was chopped off. "self-image", deeply ingrained - amazing. so change inner picture, change outer reality. stop eating chickens...

[EllenZ123]

part 3. If you seriously believe that visualizing a big sum of money really will make it come to you.

Or believing that just visualizing yourself with a slim body, will make you lose 20 lbs without changing your diet.

If you are used to eat 10 chickens a day plus a huge amount of fries and coke, it really doesn't matter if you chew it well and slowly.

And the BIG damage can be done, if this 'religion' attracts weak, depressed and vulnerable people -

Ok, look for part 4

[markiquark]

part 2 - and fries and drink only diet coke. I mention him because he also talks about goal-setting a lot, I think cyber means "helm" or goal-seeking-something. visualizing money, maybe u refer to napoleon hill's think and grow rich and the chapter that talks about that. I agree with you, but think that maybe the visualisation-process could fuel "desire" and slowly but surely change our thinking towards money and help us believe more is possible which is important for..."success".

Mark,I think they use the term "universe" to describe God. Also look in the bible, Mathew 21 Verse 22 and Mark 11 Verse 24, both clearly state that "Anything" you ask for in faith is yours. By not believeing in the Secret you would also have to not believe in God or the words written in the bible. Those who master true faith receive what they ask for, it's just the way it works, it's undeniable. The Secret is an excellent tool for teaching one to have true faith and manifest their every wish.

[markiquark]

I completely agree, though I do not believe in God. Yes, our thinking determines the outcome and what we attract. Just not in a metaphysical or religious way. If we think positively and up-beat for example, of course we will emenate that and people will ... you know, feel that, like us more, and maybe like so we become more successful. I am just not a believer in literally attracting whatever "out of the blue". For example I found the example with the gay guy a bit silly (in the movie).

Mark .. love your sense of humor! " Everybody out there is now nuts!" lol I agree with you ... I liked The Secret too, but it is all just repackaged information with new wrapping paper and different colored bow. Effective marketing? YES ... can't deny that. The principle is there ... but it is very much sensationalized. And now everyone is nuts! haha

And you can write a book about it and be suksessfull from writing a successfull book;)

[monmax123]

f people buy the book because they haven't heard the secret before and if they have, to get more knowledge on this subject

[frankfranklyn]

monmax: You are considering that I don't already know the laws of attraction. I was reading them a long, long time ago. Why do I need to go out and purchase a book on something I already know the fundimentals of? There's nothing in there that could not be told someone who might slap themselves in the face and say "how come I didn't know what I already knew but didn't stop to think about??"

[monmax123]

oh but it does. try it out, it may take a while though.

[frankfranklyn]

I'm not gonna knock religion but consider those who go to a revival meeting and come home saved. That happens, it happens a lot and of those it happens to the biggest issue is that of sustaining what they felt 'that night'. Of course, that's how many Christians would say it's how it goes but, there have to be those who don't make it and think it was just the moment. The secret is much the same; buy the book, hype up then hop off the bus when it fails coz it doesnt do what it says on the tin.

[monmax123]

but i do think that it can help in life

[frankfranklyn]

monmx123: Sorry for getting your name wrong.

If it's something that can help in life then the entire secret becomes jaded. I don't think the directors and publishers of the secret want you to think 'it can help.'

I wish people would see beyond the hype that the secret itself stirred; get on thing right in your mind, the secret is a marketing success and this is all that sets it apart from the rest of the 'DIY' books already out there. Nothing is new except the marketing.

[monmax123]

Mark is describing the secret, the secret is a mix of common sense and hard work. With a little of believing invovled. Again there is no secret to life, this is just a way of thinking and way to run your life around. You don't have to use it.

[monmax123]

the secret is just something that can help you in life. You don't have to use it. It is just a way of thinking. and its monmax not moonmax
