The Secret (Unabridged, 4-CD Set)

Same old stuff - just rewritten. Sorry I spent the money. Just tell yourself you CAN reach your goals - and skip this book.

I was hoping this book would totally WOW me since I have read great reviews about it. Most of the things you will find here are things you already know, things you could read anywhere (an inspirational quote in a bookmark). I'm glad I didn't spend a lot on this book. I was bored and uninspired.

This is a great product. You can give it as a gift, keep it to be past on to your children and so forth. It is a very inspiring item. I can account for many of the things in there. A must buy.

I've seen the DVD version of THE SECRET, but had never actually
read the book (with the same title) by Rhonda Byrne.

So I was delighted to be able to listen to the above when a friend
lent me her CD tapes . . . if you're not familiar with the premise,
it is about something called the Law of Attraction . . . in essence, it says
like attracts like . . . you can get anything in life you want if you are open
to receiving it in a positive fashion . . . the key is to avoid negativity.

When reading or listening to the book, you may not think there's much
to it . .. the same message seems to keep repeating itself . . . and
though there's an impressive list of authors/consultants who are
cited (among them Jack Canfield, John Gray, Bob Proctor, and
Rev. Michael Beckwith), what they have to say at times comes
across a bit choppy.

However, I carp . . . let me instead share just a few of the powerful
Insights that I gained from listening to THE SECRET:

* Whatever thought is in your mind, you're attracted to it.

* See yourself living in abundance, and you will attract it.

* What you think about most will appear as your life.

* It's impossible to be feeling bad and having good thoughts at the
same time.

* If you praise and bless your enemies, you will feel your attitudes shifting.

* We'll never run out of things because life is me ant to be abundant.

And this one that I've been thinking about ever since I finished
THE SECRET:

* You are not your past. Whenever I reflect on book long after I've finished it, I know that's a winner for me . . . that's the case with what Byrne had to write; I still find myself thinking about it even as I type this review!

Audio CD is easy to listen to. Ms. Byrne has a perfect voice to carry the message across.
