I have 10 more posts before my "secret" experiment is finalized. I figured now is as good a time as any to share with the Active Rain community the first 20 minutes of the movie, The Secret, as is available on YouTube.
At this point, after nearly two months of constant exposure via audio cd, book, and movie, I feel I have soaked up just about as much as I can from the message that The Secret gives.
As wonderful of a movie as it is, there is definitely a limit to the depth of understanding - or reasoning of why the law of attraction works.
Matter of factly, just by watching the movie and believing what it says (or not believing it), will not get you everything you want in life. While it can help you make your goals a reality, just "believing" it is going to happen and sitting on your couch will not result in much of anything - common sense tells us this.
But if it tips something off in your psyche and has some truth to it - I encourage you to commit yourself to understanding it further. It has not only achieved the goals I set forth at the start of my experiment, but much, much more.
There is no limit to what this law can do for you; dare to believe in your own ideal; think of the ideal as an already accomplished fact. ~Charles Hannel
Secrets Behind The Secret?
For the final posts I will be addressing some issues that I had in trying to understand the movie and the application of the secret in my life. I thought I'd start with this great interview with Michael Beckwith on CBS's "Eye to Eye".
In it he simplifies the process of how we go about shaping our own destiny. By changing our outlook upon our own life we directly change how we experience it - it's all in how we perceive our own reality.
My life has done a complete 180 in it's fulfilling potential, limitless possibilities, and overall happiness. I know I am on the path to achieving my full potential in all aspects of my life and can't wait to share my achievements with the rest of the community here to encourage others to do the same!
I am literally starting from nothing here, with little under 7 months of real estate experience under my belt - so the story is going to be - quite literally, from the bottom up!
6 Comments on My "Secret" Experiment: Watch (First 20 Minutes) Of "The Secret" Here!
This movie is so well done and compelling. It pulls you in like "Indiana Jones". Anything that makes you do a 180 in your life is commendable. I love reading your blogs!
Gabriel, What a wonderful post. I am in the process of listening to the audio CDs. I am on the 4th and final disk. I plan to start with disk 1 as soon as disk 4 is finished. It's a lot to absorb, but makes so much sense. I haven't seen the movie so I really appreciate the 20 minutes you have provided. Good luck with your experiment. I know we can be and achieve what we want in life.
Hey Gabriel, thanks for this post. I havn't seen this interview before with Dr Beckwith and I really enjoyed it. Have you seen the DVD from Jerry and Esther Hicks, "The Secret Behind The Secret"? Esther was on the original Secret but was not on the extended edition. They recorded a great discussion on the law of attraction between Abraham, a group of spirit guides channeled by Esther, and an interviewer. They have been talking about this subject for over 20 years and have a more in depth perspective on the law. May you have success beyond your wildest dreams.
I agree with the last poster. If you are interested in learning more about the law of attraction read any of the Esther Hicks books. Excellent information.
