The Secret Movie- Your Friend or Foe?

There has been a flood of media coverage recently on the movie The Secret and the subject matter of the movie, the Law of Attraction. For those that have not viewed the film, its function was to introduce the universal law that "like attracts like", "what we focus on, we receive", or "to every action there is a reaction". By learning these theories a person can go from accepting whatever lands in the middle of their life to a healthier place of obtaining prosperity and joy.

The world as we know it right this minute has those people that want to see the glass half full and those that see it half empty. The critics of the film have zeroed in on the fact that the folks that made the film are profiting from it. Uh…duh. People coach football teams for the love of teaching (or football), AND to make a living. What is wrong with people making a living doing what they love whether it is teaching, acting, selling soap, or any number of countless activities in as much as it is for good and not evil. That's like saying we shouldn't pay the milk man…that he should deliver the milk for free because our body needs the milk. We seem to forget that the milkman will need funds to buy his own milk.

Other critics have focused on the fact that the film doesn't give every detail of the Law of Attraction and therefore has caused people to believe in magical thinking. During my lifetime I have watched thousands of films and never have I expected to get 100% of the facts and details within a 90 minute period on a subject that I am studying. That is just plain silly! Can a person become a concert pianist in a 90 minute period of practice?

It is my opinion that this film does a great job of introducing the teachings of the Law of Attraction to people that have never heard of it. It is opening eyes to greater possibilities for their lives. It shows people they do not have to settle for bread crumbs when there is a freshly baked loaf of bread sitting right in front of them. However; I don't believe for a moment that one film has the time to "do it all". If people are serious about making a complete lifestyle change they may have to continue their study and then put into practice the teachings until they make it a habit. For those that are just beginning their journey to abundance there is a wealth of information to be found (just open your browser) and many schools and coaches that can help.

Do I agree that people should have to pay several thousands of dollars for one bottle of milk (or Law of Attraction information) when there is the same bottle of milk for sale at far less? NO, of course not! I don't support those that charge far more than they have to for the product or service they offer. I support the teaching of offering more value than you charge for no matter what service or product you provide. This leaves everyone happy and satisfied.

I would encourage those that are serious about changing their lives to continue your study. Look for places to get the most value for the cost. Here is just one place to start http://www.universityofprosperity.net

Fall into the belief that all you need to do is watch one movie and you will find disappointment. It is a complete life-altering concept, so step out and find how to put the Law of Attraction into action for positive results. You control your destiny; make it one of joy and beauty.
