Customer Rating:      Summary: similar to a lucky rabbits foot Comment: I totally bought into this book. I even spent a day creating a "vision board," with all the things that I loved and wanted in my life. I posted it where I dressed every morning, and I looked at it, visualizing how the universe would attract those things to me; My girlfriend of three years, a great condo, a new car, my close friends, travel to my favorite cities, my dog and my interest in writing. I followed the instructions, you know?
Well, within a year, almost everything in my vision board vanished from my life. I still have the dog, but lost my girl, lost my job, lost my 401K and now I have to relocate to a small town where I'll be away from my friends and won't be affording a car or travel anytime soon. When I think about Oprah and the others shilling this book as such a life changing thing, it just makes me angry.
I submit that the real "Secret" is that the book is itself a strong repellant for good fortune and happiness.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This book has only one literary equal... Comment: ...which is a fortune cookie with the words "Think positive" inscribed on it.
If it's really a "Secret", the guy wouldn't go around promoting it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Loved it Comment: I actually have read this book several times and each time get something else out of it; loved the book.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The Secret Comment: My outlook on life is changing for the better because of this book. After a series of upsetting life issues that have caused me to withdraw from life in general, this book has shown me other ways to think and I am noticing that I am now happy again. I am expecting great things to happen.
