Have you seen the movie?

I’m always talking about how we create our own experience in this Universe - now there’s a new movie that really drives it home.  I’d love to know if you’ve seen “The Secret” and what you think of the message.

’The Secret’ is an excellent movie.  I was at a point in my life when I gave up the negative attachments from my childhood.  When I removed the negative energy that seemed to consume my thought process, I began to wonder how I can fill the void.  As a gift, I received ‘Your best life now’ by Joel Osteen which is basically The Law of Attraction from a biblical perspective.  Several months later, I received ‘The Secret’ as a gift.  Now I have the answer to my question.

The result?....Life moves in wonderful and magical ways.  My mind is (almost) free from the negative thoughts.  There is now greater peace.  Daily struggles are much easier.

I would recommend this movie to anyone.  Watch it.  Absorb it.  Then surround yourself with positive motivators daily including programs like MTM.

Oh, yes!  I’ve watched it several times.  It echoes the way I’ve thought about life for a long time. 

I first heard about it via my daily “Notes from the Universe” (http://www.tut.com).  Mike Dooley, who writes those little gems, appears in the film.

P.S.  Just the other day, the Note from the Universe talked about swimming in the sea of infinite possibilities!  What a wonderful mental image!  I’ve been carrying that around in my head ever since.

The Secret That’s the official web site. The whole title of the film is “The Secret: Law of Attraction”. I have the movie. Actually, I downloaded it with BitTorrent. cheese (if you go that way, then be sure you get the one that’s the RIP from the DVD. the others are of dubious quality. It’s a 700 MG download though!)

My new dr. actually PRESCRIBED this film for me to watch before my next appointment (next week). It was on tv here a couple of weeks ago.

I know this works. Before I met my hubby, I had written a list of EVERYTHING I wanted in a spouse, right down to hair & eye color, & other non-tangible attributes. He fits the list to the T. LOL! I finally told him about the List just a few weeks ago.

I also wrote down what I wanted in a computer. I had a friend that was moving across country & was selling me hers, but when we went the first time, the comp didn’t come home with me. Normally I would have been disappointed (read that kicked in the gut), but I was at peace about it. A month down the track, the computer dies & she has to build a new one. Without me saying a word to her about what I was wanting, she built it to MY specs. cheese I only need to beef up the memory a bit now (due to my graphics apps, etc.).

So yeah, it DOES work. I just gave her a copy of the film for her to watch with her family. I also let her know that it works & shared the above with her.

For those Christians who are concerned about it—there are Biblical principle at play here. I’m going through them now as part of my “homework” from my dr. & I’m going to be putting them up on my web site when I get through with the project. If you want to know more, then email me privately or IM me....

Hey all:

You’re aware, I hope, hmmm that you can download the audio-book through iTunes through audiobooks, then self-help section.  I haven’t looked in the past day or two, but, it’s up there as the number 1, 2 or 3.  cool hmm  I’m interested in your take on the book/movie.  Scott ...  wink perhaps a synopsis of the book/movie either as daily boost or small portion of a Motiviation to Move Episode?  Maybe a special podcast for premium members?  Maybe a round table discussion/conference call ... as podcast … possibilities .... smile

Also, there are a couple of podcasts dealing with the law of attraction—go to iTunes, podcasts, health; go to see all; right under Motivation to Move you’ll find Law of Attraction Tips by Karen Linuw.

Sorry, gotta slow down a bit ... way ahead of myself.
cool smile

Hey Julie:

Here’s the publisher’s note from Amazon.com

From the Publisher

The Secret is truly the most outstanding book to date that we have published. I am so pleased that Rhonda Byrne was able to bring together this life-changing information so masterfully. She first did it for the movie of the same name that she produced, which has been a phenomenon in its own right. She then added, in only ones month’s time, incredible additional content to the transcript of the film that brings even more clarity to the reader. This is absolutely a book that people from all walks of life can read and then “get” the concept of The Secret. It allows them to then take it and apply it to their lives. Children, teenagers and adults of all ages are reporting miraculous stories of positive changes as a result. Rhonda Byrne is dedicated to maintaining the integrity of The Secret and to making sure that now, finally, the whole world knows about The Secret. You will want to share this with your friends and family and they will be grateful for it. This book gives hope for what many have been waiting for-- a shift in the way the world thinks. Its a very exciting time that we are living in, and I as well as everyone at Beyond Words and Atria Books are grateful to be a part of it.

--Cynthia Black, President, Beyond Words Publishing

Scott ... please let me know if this is inappropriate to put on the forum and I’ll take it off.

I’m am certainly going to chat about “The Secret” more. I’ve used it for years and was excited when my late wife Sheryl told me about the movie.  She said, “you need to see it”.  I did and it’s great.  A really wonderful way of bringing something very special to folks in a way they can understand it.  I’ll be chatting about it on this weeks show - and it will probably become a regular feature on The Daily Boost.

BTW—thanks for the link for Notes From The Universe. I spent an hour on the site, and snagged quite a few quotes. I also ended up in tears because I saw that I was really down on myself, even though I thought that I haven’t been.

Thanks. Now I can heal & get better in that area.

Hi there;

When things start happening in a row it is time for me to pay attention.  I started listening to Scott a couple of weeks ago and some of the things he said have been clicking.  Thursday afternoon, something nudged me to watch Oprah.  It was about the “The secret” and listening to her guests I thought to myself this is what Scott has been talking about.  Then on Friday I decided to do some searching on the web and came across this free link to watch the movie
http://www.universallawstoday.com/secret.html
I took the time to watch it.  Today I downloaded the MTM and the afterburner and to my surprise Scott is talking about it.  So for three days in a row, this has been knocking at my door.  Time for me to sit up and pay attention.

I don’t know how long the link will work, but hope you enjoy the show.

It’s important to know that at the end of the day it’s not the medals you remember.  What you remember is the process-- what you learn about yourself by challenging yourself, the experiences you share with other people, the honesty the training demands—those are things nobody can take away from you whether you finish last or you’re an Olympic Champion.

Thanks Susan, I too followed your link and watched the movie this morning. I’ve bookmarked this page and will be watching it many more times so I can absorb all the wisdom it’s offering.

It really explains the concepts very well. OK Scott, I can understand the basics of what you’re talking about now! I have a lot to study and think about. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Your link, or my finding of your link, is a manifestation of the law of attraction in my life.  I’ve heard of this movie, “the Secret”, and I knew I wanted to watch it, I wanted to see what it’s about, see what I could learn from it, but I didn’t want to spend $30 for the DVD if I didn’t have to.  I somehow knew I was going to be able to see the movie, with or without paying any money for it, and then here’s this link.  I simply knew it would show up, and it did.

Thank you!

The video can also be seen on Google Videos as well: The Secret

The version I downloaded was the older version, but the same info is still there. cheese

The book is also out now as well. It expands on the ideas in the movie. I had to special order mine because it’s selling out as fast as they can get it in. Was going to try to get it from the library, but there’s a 9 month waiting list for it!!!! At least with my own copy, I can write in it & make notes in it. (you should see my study Bible!)

I’ll prbably end up buying a copy of the DVD at a later date, just to have.

I’ve watched it 3 times already, taking notes. (I have homework for my dr on this one. LOL!)
