Assalam Alaikum,
The other day I was reminded of the existence of the book & DVD set called, ‘The Secret’. It talks about the ‘Law of Attraction’ which states that ‘like attracts like’ and that we attract what we focus on. (If someone has a better or clearer definition, please click reply and give me one and I’ll likely respond to it publicly).
Because I’m a personal development coach & I talk a lot about our thoughts, I get asked a lot about whether I ‘follow’ or ‘believe in’ the Secret.
And that right there is where the problem begins.
It’s something that you have to ‘believe in’. And if you do, you then have to do certain practices, like visualisation & positive thinking. And when it works, you can tell all your friends that you used ‘the Secret’ and it worked. And when it doesn’t, you can beat yourself up for not using ‘the Secret’ properly or get all cynical about all things that claim to improve your life, or pay a lot of money for someone to teach it to you properly… which leads you back to square one.
I think there’s a part of us that hopes that ’The Secret’ is true and we do all intuitively know that there is something to the power of our thinking.
And, there’s a part of us that fears it’s all lies & we’re getting conned out of the 20 bucks we invested in the DVD set. (After all, you’ve achieved a lot already without doing any special practices, and you can do all those practices and still not achieve your goals).
To me, there is a common sense factor to setting goals & visualizing.
And there’s a common sense factor to knowing that magically expecting a shiny new Tesla to show up in your garage because you watched a “mind-movie” or made a “dream-board” is about as sensible as expecting to get more intelligent by modeling Jim Carrey’s character in “Dumb & Dumber”.
I definitely wouldn’t call ’The Secret’ a ‘law’ because it’s easily falsifiable. And I wouldn’t call it a ‘secret’ either.
There is however, a ‘real’ secret…
A very useful, very powerful, game-changing ’secret’ that improves the quality your life.
And the ‘Law of Attraction’ sure ain’t it.
It is completely logical and doesn’t have ‘holes’ in it.
It is easy to understand and explains every wrong we’ve made in our personal growth & relationships.
It helps us take the emotional edge & stress off our goals, so we can flow towards them more easily.
It connects us with Allah and lets us drop egotistical thinking.
It changes us, effortlessly, by making us more insightful.
And it has lead me to having more breakthroughs in a month than I used to have in years. Literally.
That’s why I decided to dedicate my life to teaching it & being taught by it.
I call it ‘The Paradigm Shift’ and you can join me for 3 days to learn all about it and to experience the real, lasting transformation it offers, for yourself:
