The Secret

[aussiefriend]

I have the DVD of 'The Secret'. I am wondering if any other Mockers have seen it? Do you believe it? What is your opinion of it? It is based on the 'Law of Attraction'. I have found it to be very helpful and have been practising it daily. I actually really love it.



Part of which The Secret was based on is a book (I have now downloaded and have sent away for a CD version) 'The science of getting rich', which is a book written by Wallace Wattles in 1901. It is an amazing read, it sounds like it could have been written last year. There is a certain way to maximise your potential in this life in order to express yourself to the maximum but the principles used do not include being competitive and striving, on the contrary.

Aussie, you are asking for a shit storm from The Crack Posse for posting this here.

I thought it would be a great thing to share with other Mockers and see if others have had an experience with The Secret. It has been very successful worldwide and was on Oprah. It is a great tool for life.

I haven't seen the DVD and when I realized what the book was about I was no longer interested, I already knew most, if not all of what it contained, it's how I live my life and it isn't something I've learned, it's just how I've always been.

[Jimbone]

It's garbage.

I'm amazed how many people fall for what that cow Oprah puts out, and how many people think positive thinking is somehow a new concept.

[Cracker]

Shhhh, it changed her life.

[aussiefriend]

Oprah said the same thing as you Duchess, that she had been living The Secret but didn't realise it. If you are not into the book maybe the DVD might interest you. It has some teachers with their stories of people they have encountered over the years etc. I think anything that can improve me and make me a better person I will at least take a look at.

@Jimbone I am assuming you have seen it or read the book to come to this conclusion. Oprah is a good kind person who has done much good in the world. I am glad that someone with so much abundance in their lives is so gracious with it.

Speaking of secrets, what happened to this pic?

All I am saying is I have a 28 year old boyfriend that I wrap these thighs around so tightly he can hardly breathe. I have not heard any complaints from him yet but definitely some Thunder Down Under.

[aussiefriend]

You see Duchess, I have set up a thread to discuss something and this troll is behaving just like Riotgear did.

[Cracker]

Hahahahaha. That was funny as shit.

See Duchess, she'll whine like a bitch if you don't tell her to stop.

Your thread is stupid as fuck. That book is over ten years old and all the retards already cycled through it. Only the supertards are still excited.

What happened to your 100% accurate picture?

(I like the mention of Riotgear to get Duchess thinking about banned members. Not the brightest or most steady mental health professional.)

Oprah is a pretentious windbag - yet a brilliant marketing charlatan - who duped millions of weak minded women for decades into funding her nonsense. She's not groundbreaking, intelligent, or remotely entertaining. She merely did a talk show like others before her, then convinced everyone it was different. When her ratings would slip, she would cry about drug addiction, molestation, or some other farcical nonsense. Don't believe me? Watch her early talk shows... they were worse than Jerry Springer.

With regard to The Not-So-Secret, I had a sales consultant try to push on me. I watched it, and showed him the door. Positive thinking isn't a new idea to anyone, but kudos to them for spinning it differently and making millions off of it.

And guess what, Oprah got a cut of The Secret money too... you don't think she promotes all that shit without a piece of the back end do you?

Aussie, did you enjoy A Million Little Pieces from Oprah's Book Club? Yeah, the book wasn't true in case you hadn't heard.

Are you seeing the pattern yet?

[aussiefriend]

She is a great woman, we are lucky to have her on the planet. I can't see how you could perceive her in such a negative light. I really love her and I don't like anybody. I like her because she is genuine, kind, sincere and cares about others. There are many fakers out there, she is not one of them. She came to Australia and was embraced by Australians because she was real, down to Earth and authentic. That is so rare in this day and age. I say, God bless beautiful spirit Oprah Winfrey and I wish there were more people on Earth like her.

Jimmy, I never read any of her book club books. Sorry.

A very recent overview and testimonial of the Law of Attraction.



Try it, what could go wrong?

Aussie: I know that her actions have nothing to do with The Secret, in reality; just interesting timing between her testimony and this thread.

I try not to be a drag on others, do my best not to let people that I love down on the big stuff, and laugh and learn as much as possible. I fail sometimes, but I own it and keep trying to do well.

Adopting a process-oriented attitude or philosophy wouldn't work for me, but I know some people can get a lot out of it. Whatever works...

[aussiefriend]

@HoTD hey HoTD, watch that video right at the end, the male juror in the front role rolls his eyes and heaves a big sigh. He does not buy what she is saying and is fed up.

The only attraction she was involved in was Fatal Attraction. I was watching her on Whorealdo last week. Sick how she is trying to use the Law of Attraction in her defense.

Because she's a complete and total racist bitch?

Congratulations, you've been duped.

Lot's of people thought Jim Jones was genuine, kind, sincere, and cared about them too.

[aussiefriend]

Oh she is not. Where do you get off saying that? That is just an outright lie. It's a terrible thing to accuse someone of racism, hatred when their whole life demonstrates the opposite of it.

Why accuse someone like that when you applaud others in here who wear their racism as a badge of honor. It's a terrible shameful thing to be a racist yet some people in here love it and embrace it, and I dare say some of them are mates of yours.

Stop it Jimmy. I have not been duped, I am not a stupid person. I know the real deal when I see it. That woman rocks.

You only like Jim Jones because he has the same first name as you. If you were there that day you would have drunk the cool aid.

[username]

Notice any patterns here?

[HairOfTheDog]

It's no secret. As a rule, gotta watch out for Jims.

Jim Jones, Jimmy Swaggart, Jim (and Tammy Faye) Baker, Big Jim Walker...

There are some exceptions.
