What Most People DO NOT KNOW about THE SECRET

Long before Oprah talked about THE SECRET and the LOA (Law of Attraction), there was a book called Creative Visualization. That book was written by Shakti Gawain in 1974 and it's, quite frankly, better than The Secret.
Gawain says that whatever we THINK about, we usually GET. Or that whatever we desire we must learn how to take the time and THINK and SEE IT IN OUR MIND. That means including the "details". For instance, if you want to live in a house that's comfy, you'd HAVE to see details like -- bright brick-house, two stories, charming glass door bathroom.. you get the idea? You see things as you expect them, NOT as they are. Okay, that means a LOT of positive thoughts. Gawain also adds the need of several techniques like the "BUBBLE TECHNIQUE" where you THINK about something you want and then like a "bubble" you imagine letting it GO.
Creative Visualization according to Gawain has the following steps : 1. Define and set your goal; 2. Get all the details on your mind and "fix it" the way you want it; 3. Focus on this "mind picture" often ; 4. Give it positive energy, which means that you have to make sure that while you're thinking about it, you do not allow doubts or any other throught to "block" the positive energy.
There is also the use of AFFIRMATIONS like : " I am healthy, happy and healthy! "

If you are into writing E-Books like my BEST Odesk client Bob, you surely KNOW that THE SECRET and LOA sites are making it HUGE at Click bank. WHY? Because a LOT of these things really work. Also, most people NEED to hope... it's not exactly like everyone is rich, healthy and happy these days. Why does it work? Because people really want it to work and just like a placebo it can be pretty effective. Remember thelatest finding that 90% of those given placebo pills felt better after their doctor gave them "painkillers"?

How did it work for me? I earn a comfortable amount a month over the internet. 2. I live in a better community than I used to. 3. I'm happier.

Do I really think it's because of visualization? NO and YES. I work on projects and there are times I get to sleep at 3 am. In fact, Bob and I may actually sell a killer- ebook that's REAL and THAT would probably sell better than ALL the LOA types of e-books online.

Aside from Gawain, one should also get a book by Bob Buess called "Favor". No, this is a different Bob than my friend Bob. In fact, Bob Buess is a Christian writer who wrote something VERY SIMILAR to Oprah's THE SECRET.

Thus.. there really isn't nothing new about The Secret....
