I just read the book a few months ago and I really enjoyed it. There are some parts of the book that help me in my daily life, like feeling positive and happy most of the time. It works for me. What about you? Have you read it? Has this book affected you the way it has affected me?

'The Secret' is a wonderful motivational book that I read in years! i had downloaded it initially and read it and I just loved it. But referring to the e-book when I felt like, got difficult since I do not have an e-book reader. But now, my friend gifted me the paperback and I just love carrying it with me and reading it in bits and pieces when I am feeling down. It feels so good! Kudos to Rhonda Bryne and i do hope to grab the video soon. Happy Reading!

Dearie The meaning and value of THE SECRET has been more these days than ever. Even though I read it earlier, I could only feel it whenever I am sad and flip through the pages. I think for that reason alone real book is a great choice. I have the ebook and the movie but its easier to read the real book in transit since I do not have an ebook reader. Keep reading it dear!

I also want to see the video, but I think my Mom in-law have the video and maybe I'll wait till we get there. I do the same, mimpz, I open the book whenever I'm feeling down (not all the time) and it helps me to feel a bit better. Thank you dear and happy reading also.

I haven't seen the movie yet and I would love to see it one day, actually James has a copy of it, but he can't remember where he put it, probably lost it. The Secret, changed the way I think of life and no matter how hard the situation is, I still try to look on the positive side.

I've never read the book nor do I desire to do so. In my opinion that book is nothing more than a rip off of what has been said for many, many years. It just took it and put it into a different form so the common person, the one that wouldn't normally pick up a book on that topic decides to buy and read the book. The author in my opinion is nothing more than a clever copyright infringer.

Forgive my english as I am trying to improve it on this site! I respect your opinion yet i'm finding interesting that you have made your opinion on the book you haven't read. I personally found that it helps me a lot and I do understand tha anybody would feel it the same way.

I haven't read the entire book but I have read some of it. I looked at it in the bookstore and could compare it to several other books that have pushed the power of positive thinking for many years. So I just don't desire to read another book on a subject I've read before. Just because it's stated differently and became a big hit while others did not does not mean it really has a powerful message behind it. Just my opinion. :)

Tried to read this book, riya, you may like it. From what I've heard not all the people who read this enjoyed it or had affect in their lives. As for me, I've learned to be more positive in life. I will check the book the you mentioned when I go the book store on the weekend. I just finished reading Twilight and I wanted to get the other books. Thanks, riya.

Believe it or not but what has just happened now is example of The Secret in action! The "Law of Attraction" has reminded you to get this book! Please go get it to your library and let me know what you think and feel about it. I hope that you are affected by this book and the same way that I have been! Good luck!

I've read a quarter of the book but never got to finish it. I think that it spoke well of "the secret" but I can't seem to focus my positive thoughts on something to make it come true - I just don't know how to do it. I know I'm having the wrong frame of mind right now but I did try :) Have you received/achieved anything solely by focusing your positive thoughts on it? Like getting your own feather? Thanks for the response on my discussion!
