I was watching Oprah the other day.....yes I'll admit it. 
The topic dealt with this "earthshattering" book about how to get what you want in your life...I shocked when I noticed that it's entire premise was mostly based on Napoleon Hill's "transmutations".
I've included a summary found on another website, that briefly outlines the step by step process of the book. Please tell me what you think about the similarities between the two books...because it seems like a knockoff of the great original. It's a decent length read.
"The Secret" and the Science of Getting Rich
Have you heard of the DVD called "the Secret"? Well it isn't such a secret anymore. The DVD was released in March 2006 and according to Time Magazine, the DVD has sold 500,000 units within the first 6 months. Today it sells well over 5,000 copies a day! It ranked in Amazon's Top-5 sellers during Christmas week; and a tie-in hardcover book just entered the Top 10 on the New York times bestseller list.
The amazing thing about "the Secret" is that you won't find it in your local Blockbuster or Barnes and Noble, it is selling briskly through new-age bookstores, New Thought churches like Unity and AGape and the official website at The Secret :: Official Web Site of The Secret Movie :: Law of Attraction. "It's become the biggest selling item in the 30-year history of our store," says Harmony Rose Allor, a buyer at West Hollywood's popular metaphysical bookshop, The Bodhi Tree. it is "word-of-mouth" marketing at it best.
So what is the secret to "the Secret's" success? It's is a "transformational movie", where a person's view on life and the laws of life will no longer be the same after watching this movie. In a sense, it has created the same kind of effect as "the Da Vinci Code" and the 2004 hit cult movie "What the Bleep Do We Know". The movie has created such waves that it has already been featured on the Oprah Winfrey Show, Larry King Live and the Ellen DeGeneres show.
At the core of the movie is a central philosophy called "the Law of Attraction". In fact, the movie itself was inspired by this very same law when the producer read a book called "the Science of Getting Rich" by Wallace D. Wattles. This books was written in 1910!
This philosophy states that we create our reality, both good and bad! The message is delivered through 24 "teachers" which include prosperity preachers, chiropractic healers, relationship gurus, life coaches and motivational speakers - into one clear, cohesive voice. The movie is a "must watch" for anyone interested in taking charge of their life and in creating the life of their dreams.
"The Secret" revealed for everyone
Following on the success of the Secret, 3 of the core teachers - namely Bob Proctor and Jack Canfield have collaborated to produce a wealth building program called "the Secret Science of Getting Rich Seminar". This program is based on the book that inspired the movie and is set to make history as the fastest selling personal development program in history.
What is the Science of Getting Rich about? Well in the words of Wallace D. Wattles, "The ownership of money and property comes as a result of doing things in a certain way. Those who do things in this certain way, whether on purpose or accidentally, get rich. Those who do not do things in this certain way, no matter how hard they work or how able they are, remain poor. It is a natural law that like causes always produce like effects. Therefore, any man or woman who learns to do things in this certain way will infallibly get rich." The Science of Getting Rich is all about teaching how to do things in this "certain" way to create wealth.
The success of this program is built on several rock solid foundations. These factors include: the phenomenal success of "the Secret", the timeless concepts from the Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles, the credibility of successful personal improvement teachers and New Thought leaders of our time, and the Internet as the distribution medium.

"The Secret" and the Science of Getting Rich
DECIDE
Step 1
The first step is to tune in to your heart using the "head bypass technique"...
Tell your inner voice (your head) to take some time out while you flex your heart muscle for 5 minutes. Find a place you can be alone without distractions. Sit down or lay down (be careful not to fall asleep!) and close your eyes. Ask yourself, "Am I truly happy with my life and my current situation? Have I made the right choices? Can I honestly say that I couldn't possibly have a more happy, richer and fulfilling life?
Chances are that if you are still reading you have doubts. That's great because life is a journey of self discovery and the nature of man and woman is to strive for constant improvement in our quest for survival. Even a small improvement in one part of our life can have an enormous influence on the rest of our life and those who we share our existence with. Now, answer this question - "Do I want to make my life even better than it already is? If you answer "Yes" you have just DECIDED to make a change.
DESIRE
Step 2
Imagination time. Pretend that from the time you wake up tomorrow morning you will be continuing your journey of life on a different path. A path that leads away from your current state and towards your desires.
Before you go to bed tonight, get a pen and paper and write down in no more than 1-2 sentences the perfect world as you DESIRE it to be, in relation to your: Love life; work/career/business enterprise; health; physical condition, fitness & presentation; knowledge/skills; opportunities for success; recognition/power/social life; family/life; wealth; spirituality/religion; and anything else you feel and believe is crucial to your happy existence upon this planet.
DEVISE YOUR JOURNEY
Step 3
Keep this piece of paper with your special things - if you don't have a special things place, make one! Read this piece of paper often and ask yourself "What do I need to do to get where I am going?" There are many tools and techniques to help you DEVISE YOUR JOURNEY.
I recommend the PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE. Simply stated, don't make the same mistakes that other people have made and more importantly don't reinvent the wheel.
This page provides you with links to some very helpful tools and techniques that anybody can use, including children. But most of all it's FUN because you are PLANNING THE JOURNEY OF YOUR LIFE.
Decide - desire - devise your journey and along the way you will realize that you are DOING IT!
