How many of you have heard of or have read this book? Or have seen the documentary movie that is based on it?
I was tempted to buy it last week after my friends Kim and Bradie raved so much about it. I also saw that it is currently. #1 on the NY Times Best Seller list. I looked through the book, but didn't buy it. Seemed kind of boring to me, but then again I am not the type to buy self-help books. I guess I won't know "The Secret" unless I leave my comfort zone a little, huh?
For those who have read it, is it really life-changing????
i don't think any of that shit is self helping...that is just me though...it's just a bunch of smack people talk!!
good choice leaving it on the shelf i would have too!!

Self help?!! Not my thing.
Saw talk about it on 'O' and the jist of it is be positive, have a positive life...Duh!
Didn't appeal to me, give us a true review if ya read it.

you could probably read about it on Oprah's website - she had a whole show about it a few months ago.

I would say, save your money. Not a secret at all. Same old "new age" kind of thing...basically the concept of what has been said for thousands of years that what we think about is what we create in our life...some people call it the "power of attraction." I get it as a too self-centered type of thinking. Being a Christian, this is certainly not my kind of belief system, but I respect others opinion if they like it. It just wasn't for me.

I actually just bought this book. I haven't started it yet but I will let you know how it goes. I'm a little skeptical but we'll see. Thanks for dropping by!
