Words of wisdom about the "Secret"

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Flanagan Realty

Thanks to all of you who commented on my post about the book "The Secret." It seems to have had a big impact on quite a few of you, and it was nice to see that I was not alone in my skepticism. I am not entirley cynical, I have seen my share of miraculous things. What could it hurt to be positive and hopeful that good things will come my way, right? my favorite quote from the book so far is Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr "Take the first step in faith. ou don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step."

words to live by-best of luck to us all!

I think one of the big conceptions is that you just have to think positive and stick your finger in your belly button and hummm.

You still have to put forth the effort, with the faith that it will work out like the quote above.

I don't know if there really is a "Secret". The harder I work, the luckier I get is a famous quote of Abraham Lincoln. I like Kings quote about the staircase; If you don't reach out on the limb, you won't get the fruit.

I do believe in miracles, but hard work, tenacity and perseverance are irreplaceable.

THE SECRET is all You need to be good at whatever it is You do. Start today, before You hit the hay, devote 10 minutes to prayer, to be thankfull, to ask, to visualize tomorrow, etc.
