The Secret
The latest buzz is this talk of the
movie and
book called "The Secret"
It is a documentary/book on the whole concept of the law of attraction and
how our thoughts create our reality.
What we think about and believe in will become our fate. So much of
what we think is unconscious. It is set into our neural network at an
early age by how we were taught by our parents, friends, family and school.
What is unconscious will be projected onto others until we can really begin
to discover and take responsibility for it ourselves. We are the creators
of our own reality.
So much of our lives are lived unconsciously that we have even forgotten what
it is like to be conscious of every thought. Your feelings will tell you
what it is that you are thinking because you will feel joy, love and happiness
when your thinking is aligned with what you are doing and who you are. You will
be feeling positive when you are asking for what you need and learning to focus
on what you want. You will be depressed, angry and unhappy when your thinking is
out of alignment - when your thinking is based on things from the past that just
aren't true. Those little thoughts in the background or unconscious part
of you that says things like "I am not good enough", "I am not enough", "I
am unlovable", "I am not smart enough" - all those things that keep you from
being all that you can be.
So then when you can become more aware of your feelings and start uncovering
what you think, you can begin to think more consciously and take actions with
more awareness that get you what you hope for and desire.
Our desires are what make us feel alive. They motivate us to take
action. When our desires come from a needy part of us- needing attention,
needing approval or needing to be loved -looking for something outside of
ourselves to give us that will always fail. We need to know that we are
good from the inside and then create the life we desire based on knowing that we
are good.
Critics of the Secret don't really
understand the whole concept. They think that it is just about "thinking"
and they will receive. So they may sit around just thinking "I want to be
rich" and not do anything and then say it doesn't work and you just can't think
your way to riches. They are right you can't just think - there is much
more to it than that.
The other interesting thing this whole idea is nothing really new and
it isn't a secret.
I have been studying if for years since reading my first book on it "Do what
you love and the money will follow".
The history of the principles in "The
Secret" can be found in earlier writings and the New Thought Movement.
Current writings on the
law of attraction need to be studied and worked with to really get an
understanding and work to change your beliefs.
There is also a lot of scientific research and discoveries that are now
supporting the theories of "The Secret". Quantum Physics and how the brain
work and how the body works further prove that the principles in "The Secret"
are valid and obtainable.
