The Secret (Extended Edition)

There's More To The Story
The Secret is one of the best produced and edited DVDs of its kind that I have ever seen. And the line-up of teachers and presenters is top-notch. There is only one reason I give this DVD four stars instead of five. The Secret is about the Law of Attraction, and how we can use that Law to "attract" into our lives anything we want. But it spends 95% of the time talking only about being focused on what you want (rather than what you don't want), and generating positive feelings about that. It only spends 5% of the time making it clear that what we really attract into our lives is the people, circumstances, and opportunities that lead us to what we want. In other words, when we utilize the principles mentioned in The Secret, doors open. But we have to recognize those doors for what they are and go through them. And that involves action. Many people who watch The Secret walk away with the impression that visualization and positive feelings is all it takes. It isn't. You still have to do...

Even Now....
Whether or not you believe in the Law of Attraction, you are always using it. You are using it now in this moment. We are always drawing to us that which we are predominantly thinking. This isn't some "pie-in-the-sky" notion, this is the Truth. Jesus the Master Teacher said, "It is done unto you as you believe..."

In just eight simple words, Jesus summed up life for each and every one of us and this incredible movie gets us to remember that each one of us "creates our reality" with our thoughts, our feelings, and the images that we are allowing ourselves to predominantly focus upon. Of course, we do not actually "create" reality but our interpretations of what comes into our lives can "bless" us or "curse" us.

Does this DVD tell us anything new? I hate to break it to you, but there is "nothing new under the sun". But maybe...just maybe....we need to apply that which we thought we "knew". I've been at this metaphysical/spiritual stuff for almost twenty years now...

This is GREAT but if you have this one don't buy the "extended" version
The Secret is something everyone should own. I own it and watch it over and over. However, I was duped into wasting my money on the new so called extended edition which is not extended by any means. It is the same length as this one. The difference is that a business dispute between the producers of this original and Jeremy and Esther Hicks led to a request to remove their discussions from this documentary and others replaced it.

This is an excellent documentary and I recommend either one as it reminds us that if we really believe in something passionately and pursue our dreams in the face of all obstacles or passion and convictions can lead to success in any realm of our lives. I personally have watched this so many times I have lost count and it is really life changing!
