Last month someone random I met in a bus told me about a book titled "The Secret".
I was not sure why the old lady talked to me at the first place but she seems nice and the title caught my interest.
After sometime, I had the time to go to a book store and the book came to my mind again, so I asked the cashier if they had one but they did not, instead they have the audio CD of the book. It costs 1k peso(OMG!!) but I was so intrigued that I finally bought it.
The secret is all about positive thinking. That in this world there exist a supreme law, the law of attraction. The law of attraction is the secret, the secret to success, to happiness, health , salvation and everything you want in this world. The book tells us that if we keep on thinking of something, regardless of it as good or evil for us, our mind which is the strongest magnet will attract the whole world into completion of our desires. Well, It sounds awful, ridiculous at first but I tried to do what the book said, channel my thoughts into good thoughts and I will attract what I want. So I tried, I will loose nothing, maybe just my sanity.
Well, after sometime the weird happened. I was encountering new and random books articles and blogs about this "Secret". The art of meditation, Tantra, the Silva Method all related to the secret. Maybe all of this happened because my thoughts kept on asking if the Secret really works.
So it answered me.

I bought the book and the movie a couple of years ago. I thought it was a waste of my time. I do believe in the subject of the book. I just didn't learn anything from it. It does not teach anything. You have to do much more research for it.

Hi lukeramones 
I have the book/dvd 
,I do believe we attract what we think about most, when I was younger my mind was sharp if I wanted something I always had it, no matter what, then I started to be ungrateful for the things I had I complained all the time, why this, why that, eventually I had nothing left to complain about, if only I had someone in my life to tell me I was thinking negative,and that is why negative things are happening,
If you think about it, what is the secret telling you that you don"t already know, think positive, negative thinking is a bad thing, etc etc we all heard this one time or the other, I knew this when I was young no one could stop me, people tried but I just brushed them off, now it is so hard to get my mind back to that place, being here on mylot really helps.
