what positive thinking can do for you
poor health, an
empty bank account, arrogant bosses, gossip mongering officemates, low-paying
job and a career that can’t get a ride to success top the list of incessant
complaints thrown by people from all races, cultural and psychological
background. you, being the hapless victim you think you are, complain
endlessly, an addiction that comes as naturally as dependence on caffeine. the
inquiries you make on life improvement prove futile. what gives? what if on one
ordinary day, 24 of the world’s best teachers go up to you and tell you, “you
can change all that and design your life to perfection. the secret has been
with you for so long”. would you take the chance and ask to know it?
the secret, authored
by rhonda byrne, remains one of my best-loved books after it became a bestseller in 2006. byrne, who created the film prior to the book,
does not present a chesty self-help guide from a personal awakening but brings
together publishers, authors, designers, ministers, and filmmakers to account
for the power of the law of attraction. it is a life guidebook that shares what
great thinkers like plato, socrates, victor hugo and sir isaac newton among
others knew about the secret to a life of financial abundance, excellent
health, meaningful relationships and the path to success.
the secret is a
compelling revelation of how each one of us can make use of our energy to send
the right message to the universe—where our thoughts are sent out to through a
frequency. the law is far from complicated. positive thoughts bring about
positive manifestations while negative thoughts bring about negative
manifestations. if you wonder why something you don’t like keeps on
manifesting, like for instance that inebriated neighbor who keeps showing up on
your doorstep, the law will tell you that it is you who has been attracting
that person to your home by sending out the wrong message to the universe. part
of the secret is nixing the use of negation in your statements because the
universe cannot process negation. the moment you invest on thoughts and
emotions, the universe will simply give you what you’re asking for. instead of
saying, “i don’t ever want to see that person again,” (which the universe will
only hear as “i want to see that person) do something that does not require
energy: simply stop thinking about your oppressor and rid yourself of negative
thoughts.
the secret embosom
the power of forgiveness; not by befriending a foe but letting go, and the
intriguing power of laughter as a cure-all. patients have laughed their way out
of cancer by doing away with the daily news of the unfriendly world and
watching only what makes them laugh. one patient did nothing but laugh and
invest on happy thoughts for three months and discovered all her cancer cells
gone. the testimonials in the book are engaging and empowering that you would
want to bring the secret anywhere you go and open a page whenever you need
meaningful answers to your questions.
