Just a little sidenote:

The Power is the book Rhonda Byrne was inspired to write after answering several thousands of
letters from readers of The Secret.
I am reading it right now. It is good......I'll get back when I am done reading it:)

Both "The Secret" and "The Power" primarily dwell on the mental and emotional [feely, feely] facets of life. Life has five major dimensions. The key to a balanced and fulfilling life is to LIVE and nourish EACH of these five realms.

The Five Dimensions of Life

1. Mental
2. Physical
3. Emotional
4. Spiritual
5. Social

Selfish, poor attractor or knowing a good con when looking at desperate people?
No world peace, ending hunger or healing the environment... just riches for Rhonda Byrne.
Seriously, I'm all for positive thinking but action/hard work AND luck plays a part. Is it really that the hard working, positive thinking poor folks just not thinking positively enough.

It's not fair to tell people they can have something by wishing for it.

People have always lined up around the block to buy pop-psych fluff books: "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living", "Dianetics", "Think and Grow Rich", "Your Erroneous Zones". They want to read things that are comforting, not particularly complicated, and which have no basis in reality.
My prescription for this malady: give anyone who buys a 'self-help' book a free copy of Schopenhauer's "The World As Will and Representation".

Now, now, jukesgrrl, you're not allowing the "force of attraction" to guide your life. These negative comments will not help you make those millions. Try crapping on a page and watch millions of dollars come your way. :-)

"It's the attractive force of love that moves all the money in the world, and whoever is giving love by feeling good is a magnet for money."

Actually, I blame everything on my parents...
