Since this is basically a revival thread of your views on the Secret... I will save time and help drive a point home by just pasting what I posted there regarding their 'Law of Attraction'...

The person who blindly believes in anything tertiary as real, basically chooses to buy into a self-imposed cage, a prison, and in the end...a lie. When that bubble bursts under it's own weight they will be in for a big surprise...all those meaningless material goods they chose to distract themselves with were just that...distractions. Created of them, by them, in order to escape realization of self...escape of truth.

And, here's where I fundamentally disagree with this precept the secret is selling. The entire message just starts to scratch the surface of the beginnings of solipsism- the view or theory that the self is all that can be known to exist. Then, they take a sharp right, and turn it into a mainstream, overhyped, consumeristic, and wholly absurd idea that anyone would naturally choose to use this law of attraction for self-gain, material possessions, and power...rather than taking that realization a step further and focusing attentions inward where they belong.

They assume the rational choice to focus attentions outward!?!? Pfft...what a crock of shit.

Without knowing yourself and just blindly wanting objects outside of you is dangerous. Anyone that would truly understand one's self would realize there is no point to obtaining these material possessions as there is no distinction between them and you, and as such, the effort to obtain what you already possess is meaningless.

FOCUS on yourselves...not the meaningless material dream...
