The Secret

[Mike39]

I must be an oddball when it comes to the secret, tested it because my mom and one of my sisters were into it. That made me also interested, instead of purely wanting money and cars and stuff I had other desires.
Sure I also wanted money, but for buying a pirate ship most of all. One of the strongest desires i had was... prepare for it... Necromancy. I desires it both to troll people and for practical reasons.

Imagine me walking near a funeral, they are all mourning the death of a loved one. All of a sudden they hear scratchingsounds from the coffin. The deceased one bursts out of the coffin, looking around with a half-awake expression. then it shambles off to my side, suddenly the mourners are aware of me. I walk away and now have someone to take care of my dirty underwear... great success.

I wanted zombies to take care of my lawn, do the dishes, cut the grass and other menial tasks that they could manage to do. I never really believed in it fully, I wanted to believe in it but was discouraged as they always left something ''important'' out of the equation. I later gave up on the secret, since it felt like a quick and easy fix.

Edit: For those that get the thought, no i didn't want to become a necromancer to have sex with corpses. I just feel it would be awesome, having several large zombies help me push carts n stuff when I would be out shopping.

As fastlaners, I think you guys are missing the real golden nugget behind The Secret.

It's a compiled info-product, pulled from freely available sources (Think and Grow Rich, The Science of Getting Rich, etc). They weren't publishing anything new, at all, but the way they released the product and spun the information they were presenting, made Rhonda Bryne a great example of Fastlane achievement.

Take a closer look at it sometime, it's quite brilliant.

We have some F*cking crazies here... I think there needs to be a fastlane entry exam.

Maybe an exit exam too...

Some say when you go too far you can never get back to where the rest of them are.

I like the creativity in the metaphors, however, not appropriate for the forum

This does interest me as well.

From what I can tell, a lot of it has to do with your subconscious mind.

There is an excellent book called "The Architect" by Jonny Gibaud that does an excellent job summarizing it.

He says your brain is like a ball of dough, and your thoughts are like a ball bearing rolling over it - each time making a groove. As you repeat the same thoughts, the groove gets deeper.

Now, the bearing will naturally begin to follow the grooves the deeper that they get, so what you think begins to be filtered through these grooves that you carve with your "mindset" - which is really just your thought habits.

The kicker is, your subconscious has no concept of past, present, or future - as well as real or imagined things.

What this means is that the more you can visualize what it is that you want, the stronger and more realistic you can make that visualization - you begin to carve THOSE grooves in your mind. Your thoughts begin to pass through those grooves as you begin to connect new neurons and new pathways for your thoughts.

You subconscious actions begin to act in agreement with those things, "attracting" them to your life - all of the little micro-actions and decisions that you make are tuned in and controlled by this subconscious "auto-pilot" that is like your ultimate personal assistant.

So really, IMO, you are just taking control of a part of yourself that most people never actually do.

I think at a certain point in the process it's good to learn the secret, the opus, and the law of attraction, but at another point it just becomes part of a mindset or in your habits. I have used it with visualization and I believe it does work, but maybe for some it doesn't I don't know. I think people misunderstand it, and don't understand you still have to take action and it's not going to manifest over night.

This was an interesting discussion I just listened too on materialism, consciousness, subconsciousness, and reality. I'm always listening to stuff. lol

I promise you [...action + attraction] will bring greater results!!!

Imagine both. You act on ideas. You attract ideas. You act on thoughts. You attract thoughts. You get positive results. You attract positive.

Attraction is awesome. It's to visualise an outcome then to "receive" a way. To attract is to act efficiently, with purpose; logic and intent.

Excellent interpretation - wish I could transfer some 'rep' for that ample amount of wisdom. The secret is that you are the genie of your life. You're implying that if you think success or millions is hard your subconscious will seek out difficult paths.

Amazing.
