I went into this book with the wrong impression. I thought it was about a national, government secret kind of like the movie National Treasure.......boy was I wrong.
The Secret is a self help book of a most unusual variety. For any one who as read the Last Symbol by Dan Brown and remembers the collective conscious theory this book is pretty much based on that theory.
The whole book tells you how to use your thoughts to manipulate your life and achieve what ever you want. It sounds bogus and really after knowing "the secret" you don't have to read the book because it is redundant and basically tells you the same thing on every page.
The biggest question is does it work?? Some people are going to say it is completely stupid and impossible. However I recall back in my early teens before I started taking birth control that I would tell my body when to start my period so that it didn't conflict with plans I had. When I did my period always started on the day I wanted it too. I didn't keep track of my periods or count the days between. I think that this might actually work.
If you think good thoughts good things happen. A girl I work with told me her boyfriend always gets mad because every where he goes people are rude to him. She asked him what he though about when he was talking to those people. He said usually bad things about how they look, act, smell etc.... She on the other hand almost always think of good things (she is a rather bubbly person) and people were always nice to her.
This book is worth checking out, the writing isn't great but the theory is extremely interesting.
