the secretNovember 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I had already read the book, but hearing it really sends the message home. I found it a good way to introduce positive thinking and personal power to my teenagers. Wouldn't it be great to have known this stuff in my 20's, instead of forties?? Oh, well. Its never too late.
The SecretNovember 10, 2008 At first, I found this book reduntant. Then I watched the DVD & it all made sense---Worth the read!

the secret, revealedNovember 9, 2008 this is such an uplifting reminder of some basic principals, to have this book on CD, for when i'm traveling or just around the house is great, makes housework and all tasks easier, lighter and even enjoyable.
Secret's outNovember 8, 2008 After all the glamor of "The Secret"--a beautiful cover, well produced DVD, a host of contributors and being featured on Oprah, what does the book really add to self-development? The idea that you can change your life is important. The question is where to start?
I found this book repeated the same basic idea over and over: Think positive and feel good. "The Secret" offered little in the way of real growth or practical solutions. I knew the idea of a "secret" was for marketing. Still I couldn't help wanting there to be a real secret revealed.
Well, there ain't no secret just what we've always known: Maintain a positive attitude. After all is said and done something's missing from this whole approach. I wish someone would reveal the real secret.
If you are at all curious about this, I'd say get the DVD. It's well-produced and less boring than the book. Better still read "Nexus: A Neo Novel" an unusual book about people drawn to a spiritual retreat.
