year ago my life was shattered. I was exhausted. My dad

had died out of a sudden and my relationships were
chaotic. I didnt suspect then that out of the darkest
sadness was about to appear the most precious gift. I could
see a big Secret. I followed it throughout history. The secret had been
buried. The secret had been wanted. The secret had been forbidden.
I couldnt believe who were those who knew it. They were the greatest
men in history. All I wanted was to share it with the others. I started
looking for contemporary people who knew it. One by one they
started to appear. This secret gives you all that you want: happiness,
health and riches. You can have, do and be whatever you desire.
We can really have all that we want. It doesnt matter how big. What
would you like the house you live in to be like? Would you like to be
a millionaire? What kind of business do you want? Do you want
more success? What is it that you really desire?

I witnessed miracles happening in peoples lives. Financial miracles,
physical or mental recovery, relationships recovery. All these
happened thanks to the Secret knowing and applying it.

The secret is the answer to everything that has been, everything there
is, and to everything there will be. - R. W. Emerson

You are probably wondering: what is this secret? I will tell you how I
got to understand it. We all function based on the same infinite
energy. We are all guided by the same laws. The natural laws of the
universe are so exact that we never meet any difficulty when we
build spaceships. We can send people to the moon and we can
calculate the landing time by seconds. It does not matter if you are
3
in India, in Australia or in New Zeeland, Stockholm or London,
Toronto, Montreal or New York. We are all guided by the same power.
Of the same law. It is all about attraction. The secret is the Law of
Attraction. Everything that happens in your life happens because it
is attracted by you. All comes to you because of the images in your
mind. It is about what you think. The processes in your mind attract
what happens to you.

Wise men knew this forever. You can track history back to
Babylonians. They knew this too. Not all of them, only the chosen
ones.

Why do you think 1% of the worlds population earns 96% of what
can be earned? Do you believe it is an accident? It is not. It is the
way things happen. They understand something. The Secret. Now
you are about to enter the mysteries of the Secret. The simplest way
of understanding the Law of Attraction is to consider myself a
magnet. I know a magnet is something that attracts things. In
essence, the Law of Attraction says the similar attracts the similar.
But now we are talking about the process of thinking. Our job as
people is to keep in mind what we want to do, to clarify our
purposes. Starting from here, we begin to evoke one of the greatest
laws of the universe, the Law of Attraction.

You become what you think of most of the time but you also attract
the things you think of more often. If you understand this, you
understand everything. The principle can be resumed in three simple
words: thoughts become things. What most people do not
understand is that every thought has a frequency. They can be
measured. If you think of something over and over again, if you keep
in your head that you have that brand-new car, that you have the
money that you need, that you build that company, that you can
find your soul-mate, then you constantly send that frequency forth.
Thoughts send forth that electromagnetical signal which turns to
you everything that resembles them. Picture yourself living in
abundance and you will attract abundance. This works every time,
4
no matter who you are. The problem is that most people think of
what they do not want and wonder why this comes into their lives
over and over again. The Law of Attraction does not take into
account that what you think is good or bad or that you like it or not.
The think responds to your thoughts. If you always think about the
debts you have, this is the signal you send to the universe. "Oh, I feel
terrible because of my debts you keep telling this to yourself and
feel it with all your being. Then this is what you will get. So, when
you focus on the thing you desire and open yourself to it, you
activate a thought, and the Law of Attraction responds to that
thought by bringing to you the things you want. But when you focus
on what you do not want and say no, you actually turn it away. On
the contrary, you activate the very thought of what you do not want
and the Law of Attraction brings it to you.

We live in a universe based on attraction, everything is about
attraction. The Law of Attraction functions all the time, no matter if
you believe in it or no, if you understand it or no. If you think of the
past, present or future, if you remember, observe or imagine, you
give birth to a thought and thus you activate the Law of Attraction,
which is the most powerful law of the universe and which responds
to your thought.

All the time something is being created. Every time a person thinks
of something or insists on a thought something is created. A thing
will appear out of those thoughts. The Law of Attraction says that
you will be given that thing you focus on. If you complain that what
is given to you is negative, you will create something even worse.

I had a student named Robert who was homosexual and we kept in
touch within an e-mail course. He told me about the sorrows in his
life. At work everybody was against him and he was stressed about
the way he was treated. When he was on the street he was accosted
by homophobes, who offended him. He wanted to become a
comedian, but when he was give a part, the public laughed at him
because he was homosexual. His entire life was misery and pain and
5
all revolved around the thought that he was treated that way
because he was homosexual. I started to show him that all came
from the fact that he focused on what he did not want. I showed him
an e-mail he had sent to me and I told him: read it again. Revise all
the things you do not desire and you write about. You write about
them extremely passionately. When you focus very much on one
thing you cause that thing to happen very fast." Then he began the
following exercise: to focus on what he really desired. He started to
go on that path. What happened within the next 6-8- weeks was a
real miracle. He told me that all the people at work who laughed
about him had either been transferred to other departments or left
the company, and some of them simply let him be. He started to love
his work. He then noticed that when he was on the street, nobody
bothered him. Those people werent there anymore. Playing his
comedy role, he started to be applauded, nobody insulted him
anymore. His entire life changed because he had changed his way of
thinking from what he did not want, what caused him fear, to what
de really wanted.

If we have positive thinking and have positive orientation, we attract
the right people, the right events and situations. If we are negatively
oriented or angry, we attract mean, angry people and negative
situations. Thus we come to attract what resembles our permanent
thoughts, no matter if these thoughts are conscious or not. This is
the Secret.

If you pay attention to the secret, to the power of our minds, and to
the power of our intentions in everyday life, you will realize that the
Secret is present everywhere. All you have to do is open your eyes
and watch carefully. You have the proof of the Law of Attraction in
society when you see that the one who has the disease talks about it
most of the time. When you see that the one who talks more about
prosperity has it. The Law of Attraction is obvious everywhere
around you, if you understand what it is about.

6
You are a magnet that attracts people, thoughts, occurrences and
ways of life. Indeed, all that you bring into your life happens because
of the Law of Attraction. Im not talking about simple illusions or
mad fantasies. Im talking about a deeper understanding, a
fundamental understanding.

Quantum physics starts to talk about this discovery. It says that you
cannot have a universe without mentally entering it. That it is the
mind that moulds the perceived thing. Even if you do not understand
it, it does not mean that you have to reject it. You do not fully
understand electricity. Even if you do not understand it, it does not
mean that you do not enjoy its advantages. Do you know how it
works? Because I dont. but I know one thing: that you can cook
dinner with its help and that you can even fry someone with it.

When people begin to understand the big Secret, they start to be
terrified by all the negative thoughts they have. They have to be
aware of two things that it has been scientifically proven that a
positive thought is a thousand times more powerful than a negative
one, and thus things are clear from the beginning.

You live in a reality in which time manifests itself through a buffer.
This is in your advantage. I dont believe you would like to live in an
environment where your thoughts have an immediate effect. The
proof they manifest comes only after a while and this is good. Thus
you have the opportunity to become aware of your thoughts. Since
you have the time to carefully choose your thoughts, enjoy this
activity, because you are the masterpiece of your own life. You are
the Michelangelo of your own existence, and the David you are
sculpting is you.

The leaders from the past who knew this Secret wanted to keep
power to themselves, not to share it. So they kept people ignorant
about it. People went to work, did their jobs and came back home.
They worked mechanically and had no power, because the secret
was kept in dark by several people.

We live in a universe governed by laws. There is a gravity law
according to which, if you fall off a building, no matter what kind of
person you are, good or bad, youll hit the ground. Everything that
you have in your life now, including the things you complain about,
are the things you have attracted. I know from the very beginning
that you will not like what Im about to tell you. You cannot agree
that you attracted a car accident. That you attracted that specific car
accident. That you attract all the things you complain about. But I
will be honest with you and I will tell you that YES, you did that.
This is one of the things that you find hard to digest, but once youve
accepted it, your life will change. This is part of the big Secret.

Most of us attract by their own way of being. We are convinced that
we cannot control this. Our thoughts are on automatic pilot, our
feelings too and thus everything comes to us without letting us
know. If you hear this for the first time you probably wonder if you
have to monitor your own thoughts. Because it means a lot of effort.
It does, at the beginning. But the great part comes now. It is not
advisable for you to monitor your thoughts this would drive you
mad. There are so many thoughts that come to you from so many
directions and about a lot of subjects. Here comes the role of your
emotional guiding system. Your emotions your emotional system
are the ones which help you understand your thoughts.

Your thoughts determine your feelings. Emotions are a gift we have
and they show us what we attract. There are, from our perspective,
only two kinds of emotions. Positive and negative. You can call them
what you want; but in essence, all negative emotions guilt, anger,
frustration produce the same state of being. They make you feel
bad. All these emotions are in fact a guidance system which tells you
that what you are thinking now does not correspond to what you
really want. At another level we can talk about a negative frequency,
or negative vibrations or whatever you want to call them. Emotions
which make you feel good hope, happiness, love positive emotions
8
constitute also a guidance system which tells you that what you are
thinking now is what you desire.

It is very simple. The answer is here. What is it that I attract right
now? Well, how do you feel? I feel well. Very well, go on. Our feelings
are feed-back a mechanism which tells us if we are on the way we
should be. The better you feel, the better you are positioned
according to what you want. The worst you feel, the worst you are
positioned.

When you experience daily events you do nothing else but produce
thoughts which mould your future experience. You can tell, by the
way you feel, if you are going to like the things you are heading
towards when you get there. What you feel is the perfect mirror of
your development. You are heading towards you feel, and not so
much towards what you believe. If you hurt your leg in the morning
when you get out of bed, you tend to do the same all day long. You
do not even realize that a mere change of your emotional state can
change your entire day and your entire life. If you start your day
feeling good, as long as you will not let anything to influence your
feelings, you will continue to attract, according to the Law of
Attraction, occurances and people that sustain this feeling of
wellness.

No matter if days are better or worse, the rich will be richer and the
poor, poorer. Everything is connected to what these people feel all
the time. You can begin right now to feel healthy. You can begin to
feel wealthy. You can begin to feel the love around you, even if it is
not there. What is going to happen is that the universe will respond
to the nature of the song inside you. The universe will correspond to
the nature of your inner feeling and will be manifested consequently,
because this is who you feel. Thus, the thing you focus on, mentally
and emotionally, is the thing you attract in your life, no matter if it is
what you want or not.

9
There is always a connection between what you feel and think and
what happens to you. Always. Without exception. This is not easy to
accept. But when you begin to open your heart to this type of
understanding, the consequences are huge. It means that everything
your thoughts did in your life can be undone by a mere change of
conscious perception.

You create your own universe throughout your life. W. Churchill

It is really important to feel well because this state will give a signal
into the universe and will begin to attract towards you what is
similar to it. Thus, the better you feel, the more you attract things
which make you feel even better. Do you know that when you feel
down, you can change this in a minute? Play some nice music. Start
singing. This will change your emotional state. Or think of something
nice. Think of a child. Maybe of the one you love. Now insist upon
this image. Keep it into your mind, blocking anything else. I
guarantee that you will begin to feel better. The same can be applied
to pets, which are wonderful because they create a good feeling. The
love for your pet is a great gift.

When you start playing this game, when you start guiding your
thoughts according to the way they make you feel and you begin to
feel the relation between what you feel and think and what comes to
you, you will realize that without knowing it you are the creator of
your own reality. Those who watch these things from afar will be
amazed at the perfection of the life you will lead.

Ever since I learned the Secret and I started to apply it in my life, my
existence became magical. I think the way of life everybody dreams of
and I live it every day. I live in a 4.5 millions house. I have a wife you
could die for. I go on holiday in the most fabulous places in the
world, I have climbed mountains, explored the world, went on a
safari. All these happened and continue to happen because I can
apply the Secret. Life can be fantastic the way it is supposed to be
and it will be that way the moment you apply the Secret.

A lot of people ask me what their role in creating the Universe is and
what the role of the Universe is. Let us examine a little bit this
subject. Let us take the metaphor of Aladdin and the magic Lamp.
You have probably heard the story. Aladdin lifts the lamp and cleans
it and from the lamp there appears a gin. The gin always says the
following words: Your desire is command for me. Everybody knows
one can ask for only three things, but if you think better, there is no
limit concerning the number of desires. Think about it. Now let us
take the metaphor and apply it to your life. Imagine Aladdin is the
one who always asks for what he wants. Then we take the universe,
which is the great gin and which the well-known traditions have
named in different ways. We can give it any name, so choose the
name you want. All traditions tell us there is something above us.
The gin says only one thing, Your desire is command for me.

The creative process is a three-step process.
The first step is to ask for what you want. You dont necessarily have
to use words in order to ask. In fact, the Universe doesnt hear
words. It answers your thoughts. What do you really want? Sit down
and write what you want on a piece of paper. Use the present tense.
You can begin by writing: I am so happy and pleased that now
and then explain how you want your life to be like. In every of its
aspects. It is as if you have the Universe as a catalogue and you look
through it saying Id like to experience this and have this, and Id
like to have such a partner. By so doing you only impose your own
order in the universe. It is easy.
The second step is the answer. Answer your demands. It is not about
giving physical shape to your demands. The Universe will do it for
you. All universal forces will answer the thoughts you have put in
motion. The gin: Your desire is command for me. The universe will
begin to rearrange in order to respond to your wishes. Most of us
havent allowed ourselves to wish for what we really want, because
we could not see how this could happen to us. If you search a little,
you will see that everyone has once accomplished something he did
not know how to carry on in the beginning. He only knew that he
11
was going to do that thing. You do not need to know how that thing
is going to happen. You do not need to know how the universe is
going to rearrange. You do not know how, this will be shown to you.
You will only attract the way it is going to happen. Someone might
say, "There must be something that does not work, because I ask for
it but it does not appear. indeed, you ask for it. But this is only the
first step. The Universe answers every time, without exception.
There is one more step you need to understand which means
accepting what you ask for. In order to get what you want you need
to be on the same wave length with what you ask for. And in this
case you feel great. This is the enthusiasm, the happiness, this is the
gratitude. When you feel despair, fear, anger, these feelings indicate
the fact that you are not on the same wave length with what you ask
for. When you begin to understand that what you feel is everything,
you start redirecting your thoughts according to the feelings they
cause. You slowly find their place and become one with them and
they will manifest in your existence. When you start to transpose
fantasies into facts you will be able to build more daring fantasies.
This is, my friend, the creative process.

The Law of Attraction, its study and practice, means nothing more
than understanding the way you could generate the feeling of having
what you desire that very moment. Go and test the car you like, go
and find out how you could buy the house you would like to live in,
enter that house. Do everything you need to do to generate the
feeling that you have that thing, and then remember that feeling.
Everything you do for this will help you attract that thing. When you
wake up that thing may already be there. An idea about how you
could act may come to you. But do not dare to think I could do that
like this, but I wouldnt like it. In this case you are on the wrong
way. Action is good in certain cases, but it is on the same wave
length with what the Universe is trying to give you, you will feel joy,
you will feel alive. Time will stop; you could do this the whole day.
Universe likes speed, so do not be late, do not think twice, do not
doubt. When opportunity comes along, when the impulse is there,
12
when intuition says yes, act upon it. This is your job. This is what
you need to do. You will attract everything you ask for.

If you need money, you will attract it, if you need people, you will
attract them. If you need a certain book, you will attract it. You need
to pay attention to what attracts you, because when you
permanently have in mind what you desire, you will be attracted to
those things and they will be attracted to you. Thoughts get material
consistence with and through you. This is certain. You may start
from zero. Starting from zero and from impossibility, a possibility will
be born. Think about it.

If you go by car during the night, the headlights spread light only
100 meters ahead. However, you can go from California to New York
by driving at night because all you need to see is the hundred meters
ahead of you. This is how our life goes on too. If we trust the next
hundred meters, there will be the next hundred, and yet another
one. Our life will go on and will take us to the destination or
wherever we want to go because we really want it.

Make the first step trustfully. You do not need to see the entire flight of
stairs. Just step on. - M.L. King

Another question people ask is: How long will it be before I have
what I desire? How long will it be before I have the car I want, before
the relationship becomes solid, before the money comes and so on.
Well, there is no set of rules to tell the process will last 30 minutes, 3
days or 30 days. This depends on your relationship with the
universe; dimension means nothing to the Universe. It is not more
difficult to attract something huge than to attract something tiny.
The universe does everything and with no effort. The grass is not
trying to grow, it does this effortlessly. It is all about how things are
organized. Everything revolves around how things happen up here. It
is about what we feel when we say This is important, it will take me
some time or This is nothing, Ill solve it in half an hour. There are
rules we make ourselves. There are no rules as far as the Universe is
13
concerned. Have the feeling that you own what you need right now.
The Universe will answer to you. Some people manage better with
small things, so we sometimes say to start with something small,
such as a cup of coffee. Focus on attracting a cup of coffee today.
Focuses on your own image by talking to a friend you havent seen in
a long time. One way or another, someone will tell you about that
person or that person will start writing to you.

People are amazed at how fast I can find a parking space. Ive been
doing this since I first understood the Secret. I visualize a parking
space exactly where I want it to be ands in 95% of the cases the spot
awaits for me and all I need to do is stop the car right there. In 5% of
the cases I only have to wait a minute or two and someone leaves the
parking lot and I have my spot. So I do it all the time.

Most people are blocked, or constraint or limited by the
circumstances of their lives. What I want to show to you now is that,
no matter the circumstances in your life, they only represent reality,
ant it begins to change as soon as you start seeing this film and start
using the Secret. Sometimes you feel blocked, because you
continually think about the same things. So you come to the same
result all over again. The reason is that most people think as
reaction to what they can see. When you concentrate only on what
there is, you can only think what there is the Law of Attraction does
nothing else but giving you more of that thing. When you only
observe what there is, you only think of what there is and the Law of
Attraction only gives you what there is. You must find a way of
approaching what there is from another point of view. Most people
see the circumstances of their present lives and say this is me. But
this is not what you are, this is what you were.

If you watch the present situation, lets say, for example you have no
money, or you dont have the relationship you want, or your health is
not perfect. All these are not what you are, but the result of your
past actions and thoughts. So we live in fact in this residual state of
the thoughts and actions we accomplished in the past. When you
14
consider only your present life circumstances and define yourself
through them, you sentence yourself not to have a future.

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. - Buddha

Well, what can be done to change your present life? I will tell you two
or three things. Start by writing down a list with the things that
bring contentment to your life. Start with this because in this way
your energy will be redirected. As a consequence, your thoughts will
be redirected. While before this exercise, youve focused on what you
do not have, on what brought discontentment to you, on your
problems, starting this exercise you go on a different path. You begin
to be grateful for what pleases you. Gratitude is the way to bring
more into your life. Every man knows that when his wife appreciates
him for what he does, he wants to do more in that direction. It is
always about appreciation. It attracts things to you, attracts support.
Ive been saying for some years now that everything we think and
everything we are pleased of attracts things of the same nature. This
is the feeling you must have. For me it is very energizing to wake up
every morning and say thank you. Every morning I get out of bed, I
say thank you. Then I think of the things I am grateful for while I
brush my teeth and do all the other things people do in the morning.
But this is not a routine since thoughts are always more and more
and make me feel grateful. Because as soon as you start having
different feelings towards what you already have, you will start
attracting more and more good things which make you feel grateful.
On the contrary, you could look around and say Well, I have a car I
dont want, I dont have the house I desire, I dont have my health, I
dont have the wife I need. Stop! All these are, in fact, things you do
not want. Focus on what you already have and for which you feel
grateful. Accustom your eyes to see this. It may be the very clothes
you wear. Maybe you prefer something else and you could get that
something soon if you start being grateful for what you have.

I think everyone passes difficult moments when they say, Things
dont go well or go badly and there are again problems in my family.
15
I have found a rock but I dont simply keep it in my hand. I put it
into my pocket and I said to myself, Every time I touch this rock, I
think of something I am grateful for. So, every morning when I wake
up, I take the rock off my nightstand and I think of all the things I
am grateful for. What do I do during the night? I take the rock out of
my pocket and here it is again. I have had some great experiences
with it.

I knew someone in South Africa who saw my rock and asked What
is it? I told him, and he started to call it The Gratitude Rock. Two
weeks later I got an e-amyl from him which wrote My son is dying
because of a rare disease. Can you send me the Gratitude Rock? it
was an ordinary rock, found on the street, so I told him Of course.
But I had to make sure the rock was special so I went to a river bank
and I watched the rock carefully, I took the right one and I sent it to
him. Four or five months later I got an answer from him: My son is
better, but I have to tell you something: I have sold over a thousand
gratitude rocks, and I raised money for charity. Thanks a lot. It is
very important to have a grateful attitude.

Another thing I suggest you to do is change your life right now. This
change is so big; I dont have enough words to tell you how powerful
it would be for you.

I took some sequences from the Apollo mission and I introduced
them into the Olympic training program of the 80s and 90s. The
procedure is called repetition by visualization. When you visualize,
you materialize. What is interesting about our mind is that when I
applied the procedure on Olympic athletes by connecting them to
sophisticated monitorising equipment and simulated the exercises
only in their imagination, their muscles reacted as if they were really
running. How ban this be? The reason is that the mind does not
distinguish between the activity itself and its simulation. If things
are going on in the mind, they will go on outside it too. When you
visualize something focus only on the final result. For example watch
your hands. You can see the color of the skin, the blood vessels, and
16
the rings on your fingers, the nails. Fix these images into your mind
and then close your eyes and visualize you fingers holding your
brand-new car wheel. You will have such a feeling that you will no
longer want to have the car because you feel you already have it. The
feeling creates the attraction, and not the photo or the thought. On
the other hand there are a lot of people who say If I have positive
thoughts and if I picture myself having what I want, this will be
enough. But if you do this and do not feel fulfilled, if you do not feel
love and joy, it means your mind does not produce the attraction.
This is the moment the Secret comes onto stage. You have to really
feel you are in that car, and not to tell yourself I would like to be in
that car. Or Someday I will have that car., because you have to
associate the feeling with the image. If you keep this feeling, you will
always situate in the future. Feel the joy despite the contrast
between the feeling and your silent, dark room. And you will cry out:
Eureka! Do it!

Many people will say: Do I really need to do this? How much do you
want to change your life? The feeling and the inner visualization will
become the gate through which the power of the Universe will
manifest itself.

I cannot say what this power is. I only know it exists. - A. G. Bell

Our job is not to conceive the ways to get something. They how will
come along with the inner dedication and the faith. The ways to get
what we want are what the Universe needs to take care of. It always
knows the shortest, fastest and most harmonious path between you
and your dream. If you leave it to the Universe, you will be surprised
how much it will give you. What I want to say is that this attitude
must be adopted daily, but it must not become a burden. What is
really important about the secret is the feeling of wellness. The goal
of this process is to lift your spirits. Be happy, in harmony with the
world. The only difference between the people who live this way and
those who do not experience the magic of life is that the latter have
turned this into a habit. They have turned this process into a daily
17
activity, and the magic follows them around, because they always
keep it in mind and practice it all the time. Some people set off on
this road and do very well, and say you know, Im excited, I have
taken up this program and it will change my life. And still, the
results do not come immediately, even if they are ready to show. The,
the person may say this does not work. And what does the universe
say? Your desire is my law. And stops what was about to come.

Knowing the Law of Attraction, I wanted to test it, in order to see
what happens. In 1995 I created a vision board to help me attract
what I wanted, such as a car or a house, or a watch, or the soul-
mate in my dreams. I put there a picture of what I wanted, I sat in
my office and watched it trying to visualize what I desired until I
came to the feeling I would have had if I had had the real object.

At a certain moment I moved out and I put the furniture and the
boxes to keep. I moved out three times in five years and finally I went
to California and I bought this house. I renovated it for a year and
then I brought all the things from the house I had lived in five years
ago.

One morning, at about half past seven, my son entered the office and
saw one of the boxes which had been sealed for five years. Then he
sat near it and started kicking it. I told him Sweetheart, please stop,
I am busy. What is in the box, daddy? There is my vision board. It
is something I put my dreams on. Of course that my son, five years
old, did not understand. So I opened the box and I took it out. On it
there was the picture of the house I had dreamed of five years before
and I was amazed to see that it looked exactly like the house we were
living in. I had bought the house of my dreams without realizing it. I
started crying. Why are you crying? he asked. I have finally have
found out how the Law of Attraction functions, I answered. I finally
understood the power of visualization. I understood everything I had
read, everything I had done. The way I had built companies. The
method had also worked for my house.

18
Imagination is everything. It is the power to foresee what comes next
in life. Einstein

Decide on what you want, believe you can get it, believe you deserve
it and believe all these are possible. Then close your eyes, and for
some minutes visualize the thing you desire feeling as if you already
have it. Then get rid of this state and focus on the things you already
have and for which you are grateful. Enjoy everything and trust the
Universe with your desire and trust the Universe will find a way to
manifest it.

The secret really changed me, because I grew up in a family where
the father was very negative and believed rich people got there by
stepping on others necks. He believed they had made their money
out of connery. So I grew up with the prejudice that money makes
you evil, that only evil people have money and that money is
something very difficult to get. Do you think Im a kind of
Rockefeller? was one of my dads favorite sayings. I grew up
thinking life is difficult, hard, that it is an exhausting fight. Only
when I came to know Clement Stone my life began to change.

Any thing that can e conceived by the mind can be accomplished. C.
Stone

When I started to work with Stone, he told me I want you to set a
goal which is so great, that if accomplish it you are astonished. Then
you will realize that it is only thanks to what I have thought you
became fulfilled. At that time I was making 8000 dollars a year and
I dont know why I said I want to make 100 thousand dollars a
year". I had no idea how this could happen. I could see no strategy,
no possibility, so I said, I will support this, believe in it, I will act as
if it were true, and I will trust my desire to the Universe. And so I
did. One of the things I have learned from him was to close my eyes
and visualize the goals as if they were already accomplished. So I
stuck a hundred dollar bill on the ceiling so that it was the first thing
I could see in the morning. The bill reminded me of my wish. Then I
19
closed my eyes and I pictured myself living as if I had 100 thousand
dollars. During the first 30 days nothing happened. I had no idea,
nobody gave me more money. Suddenly, while I was in the shower,
about a month later, I had an idea worth one hundred thousand
dollars. I had written a book and I thought that if I had sold four
hundred thousand copies a quarter of a dollar/piece this would
have meant one hundred thousand dollars. The book had been there
for a long time, but no such idea had ever occurred to me. When you
feel inspired you must be trustworthy and act consequently. I didnt
know how to do sell four hundred copies; I had never tried to do this.
Then I found in a supermarket The National Inquirer. I had seen it a
thousand times, but I had never read it. And I thought "If the readers
knew about my book, there would be for sure four hundred
thousand of them to buy it. Six weeks later I had a conference at
Hunter College in New York, in front of six hundred teachers. At the
end, a woman told me Great conference, Id like an interview with
you. Here is my card. So I asked her who she was writing for. "Im
on my own, but I sometimes work with National Inquirer". While
listening to her I was thinking of the soundtrack in Twilight Zone.
This really works. So the article came out and my books began
selling. But what I wanted to tell you is that I attracted in my life all
these, including that person. In short, I didnt make one hundred
thousand dollars that year. I made 92,327 dollars. Do you think that
I was depressed and said to myself "This is not working"? No, I said
"it is extraordinary!" then, my wife told me "If it worked for one
hundred thousand dollars, do you think it would work for a million?
"I dont know, I think it would. Lets try". My editor wrote me a
cheque. It was a cheque for authors rights. He even drew a smiling
figure near the signature, because it was the first million dollars
cheque he had ever written. Now I know the Secret works.
Guaranteed.

I imagine many people watching this movie and thinking how they
can attract more people into their lives. How can I get more
prosperity? How can I, who love my job, get rid of the debts I have
and break the wall between me and that money? Maybe the wall is
20
exactly like the job. How can I have more? Dare! Lets go back to one
of the things we have talking about. Your job is just to declare what
you want from the catalogue of the Universe. If money is the thing,
declare how much you would like. Id like to have 25,000 dollars in
the next 30 days or any other time limit. But you have to believe
what you ask for. Many people have as a purpose to get rid of debts.
Such an attitude will run you into debt forever. You attract all the
things you think of. You will say that you think how to get rid of
debts. But if you think of debt, you will attract it. It does not matter
if you think of running into or out of debt, but if you think about it,
you will attract it. Draw out a payment program and then think of
prosperity.

People often tell me, "Id like to double my income next year". But
when you analyze their actions, they do nothing of what could take
them to their purpose. Then they say, "There is no purpose in going
on like this ". and the Universe answers, "Your desire is my
command". When you worry you do not have enough money, when
you complain about it, when you feel unhappy about it, you activate
inside you a thought which is exactly the opposite of the desire you
have expressed. In short, you cannot have more money if you keep
focusing on "I dont have enough."

When I first understood the Secret, I was full of debt; I was daily
receiving payment announcements. How could I change this? The
Law of Attraction says that you get the things you think of. So I took
a bank form, I erased the amount written there and I wrote a new
number. I wrote exactly the sum I wanted to have in my account.
What if I tried visualizing the cheques I want to receive? So I
visualized a pile of cheques I wanted to get by mail. In only a month,
things started changing. It is amazing. Today I get by mail only
cheques. I get some bills, too, but the cheques are more.

I grew up with the saying "you have to work hard for money". Now I
replaced it with another one "money can be earned easily and fast".
At the beginning, everything seems to be a big scheme, of course.
21
There is a part of your brain which says "liar, it is difficult". You need
to get used with this tennis match which will last for some time.
When it is about certain richness, you must know that welfare is a
state of mind. Everything comes down to the way you think. 80% of
what I teach people refers to their psychology, the way they think.
Some of those who listen to me say "you can do this, I cannot.
Anyone has the ability to change the way they think of money.

I have known a lot of people who made a lot of money, but their
relationships were awful. It is just a technical term. This is not
welfare, it really is not. You can be rich, but this does not guarantee
welfare. I do not mean that money is not part of the welfare, but it is
just a side of it. On the other hand, I meet witty people who are ill
and poor all the time. This is not welfare, either. Life means
abundance. In everything.

Many people in Occident look for success, want their own house, and
want a prosperous business. But what I have discovered is that
having these things does not represent a guarantee of what they
really desire, happiness that is. It does not come when you have
accomplished everything you want. It is exactly the opposite. First
you need to have a good state of mind, to be at peace with yourself,
and then everything else will come.

The Secret meant to me that we are the creators of our Universe. And
that every desire of a thing brings that thing into our lives. This is
why it is very important to be careful about what you want, think
and feel because all these will come to life.

Once I entered the house of a famous movie director and producer.
In every corner of his house there was the image of a beautiful naked
woman, covered with a veil, who seemed to be saying "Im not looking
at you, I cant see you ", and I said, "It seems you have love
problems "Are you a visionary?" "No, but you have the same woman
in seven corners of your house ".But I like women. I have painted
these myself.. This is even worse because you have put all your
22
creativity here". He was very handsome, surrounded by actresses all
the time, because this was his job, but he did not have love. I asked
him what he wanted.
"I want to meet three women a week". "Then paint yourself
surrounded by three women and place this image in every corner of
the house". Six months later I met him in Europe and I asked him
"how is your love life?" "Great, those women have just called me, they
want to meet me." "Because this was your desire". "Now I have three
dates a week. Women fight for me.. Good for you". "But I want to
settle down. I want to get married, I want a romantic story. Paint
it. So he painted himself having a romantic story and a year later he
got married and now he is very happy. Everything because he
expressed his desire. It was inside of him for many years, but it
hadnt come true because there was something inside telling him it
couldnt be.

Now that youve found out these things, start playing with them.
Inside a relationship it is more important first to understand who
can get involved into that relationship. Im not talking about your
partner, but about you. How do you thing someone could feel
comfortable with you if you dont feel comfortable with yourself?
Again, the Law of Attraction or the Secret is to bring a state of
wellness into your life and this needs to be extremely clear to you.
Think about it: do you treat yourself the same youd like the others
to treat you? You have to become your own solution. You cannot say
"You owe me and you have to give more." Instead, give yourself more
to you. Make time for it; fill yourself until you sense you are full of
yourself.

I have had many relationships and expected my partners find me
beautiful. I needed him to tell me I was beautiful because I didnt feel
beautiful. Because when I was young, my idols were Charlies angels
or the Wonder Woman. Though these were beautiful women, none of
them resembled me. Only the moment I stopped and fell in love with
Lisa who had thick lips, big hips and dark skin did the rest of the
world fall in love with her.
23

Im so great! Ive studying myself for 44 years, I could kiss myself!
This is because you come to love yourself. Im not talking about self
deception. I speak about self respect. When you love yourself, youll
love the others, too.

Sometimes people say, "The people I work with are so negative", or
"The man I live with is so angry" or "Children bring only trouble". We
answer them that they need to focus on the good side in people
around you. Have an agenda where to write down all the qualities of
the people around you. You may have had some problems with some
of them, terrible fights, but when your mind, with some effort,
recognizes the things you like about them, they will become positive
for you. If you cannot influence the world they live in, if they have an
attitude which is not the best, you will not meet again. The Law of
Attraction will not put you in the same area again.

If you knew your potential of feeling well, you wouldnt ask anyone to
change so that you could feel well. You would get rid of that crashing
need to control the world, to control your partner, to control your
child. You are the only one who can create your own reality. Because
nobody can think for you. Only you can. Every little bit of you.

It is important to realize that your body is the product of your
thoughts. We are beginning to understand, in medicine, the degree
to which thoughts and emotions determine the physical substance,
the structure and the functions of our body. We know that there is in
the curing art, the placebo effect. This is something that has no
effect on the body, similar to the sugar pill. You tell the patient that
it has healing effects. What really happens is that this pill has the
same healing effect, if not greater, as the proper medicine produced
with that particular purpose. Thus it was discovered that the human
mind is the most important fact in the healing art. Even more
important than medicine. If someone is ill and there is a choice
between discovering what in his mind creates the illness and the
medicine for it, if it is about an acute form of disease, which could
24
lead to death, the medicine is indicated but at the same time
exploring the mental cause of the disease. Medicine must not be
denied. Each way of healing has its own part.

Everywhere there is a wellness wave. It is pure positive energy. The
Universe, as far as we know, is full of this kind of energy. We live in a
world based on welfare and it abounds. When you allow such a wave
flow through you, you feel well. When you chase it away, you feel
less well. There is only one wave of positive energy which you allow
or not to go through you. Your emotions tell you the state you
experience. If you let this connection manifest or if you resist it.

Think of the people who are in a terminal illness phase. Thing of the
word un-healthy. Decompose it. It is a body which is not healthy.
There are a thousand diagnoses and a thousand diseases. They are
only the weak link. All are the consequence of only one thing: stress.
If you cause a strong chain undergo a powerful stress, one of its
links will give in. our physiology creates diseases to assure feed-
back, to let us know we are not balanced, that we do not love, that
we are not grateful. The signs and the symptoms of our body are not
terrible themselves.

A frequent question refers to disease. If a person gets ill and feels
sick, can the power of positive thinking change this? The answer is
certainly yes.
On the 23 November I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I thought
then, with all my power, that I was cured. All day long I was saying
"Thank you for healing." And I kept going like this. In my heart I
believed I was healed. I thought as if cancer was not inside me. One
of the things I did to get better was watch funny movies. So all I did
was laugh all day long. I couldnt afford any stress in my life since I
knew stress was one of the worst things when you try to get better.
Since the moment I got my diagnose, 23 November, until I cured
there were 3 months. Without radiations and chemotherapy. It is
called self-healing.
25
If you hurt yourself, the skin grows back. If you get infected, the
imunity system cures the bacteria. The imunity system is made to
cure. Disease cannot last in a body which is emotionally healthy.
Our body gets rid of a million cells a second and in the same second
creates new cells. In fact, entire parts of the body are replaced every
day. Others are replaced in years and others in months. But within
years we have a brand-new body. If you have a disease and focus on
it, talk about it, you will create more ill cells.
Picture yourself as living in a perfectly healthy body. Let the doctor
take care of the disease. Do you realize the difference between having
arthritis and being afraid of it? And between having it and trusting
you will be OK? The difference between fear and hope is the
difference between health and disease. Happy thoughts lead to a
healthy body. Negative thoughts, stress degrades your body and you
brain because our emotions reconstruct, reorganize, and recreate
our body all the time. Get rid of the physical stress and the body will
perform the functions it has been designed for. It will cure itself.
I have seen regenerated kidneys, I have seen cancer go away, and I
have seen sight coming back. I have always said that incurable
means curable from inside. You can change your life and you can
cure yourself.

My story begins in March, 10 1981. This day changed my entire life.
I will never forget it. I had a plane crash. I got to the hospital
completely paralyzed. My spine backbone was damaged, my first and
second vertebras were broken, the swallowing reflex had gone, I
could neither eat nor drink, I couldnt breathe, and all I could do was
blink. The doctors said that I will be a vegetable all my life. All I was
going to be able to do was blink. This is what they thought of me.
But their opinion does not matter. What mattered was my opinion. I
imagined myself a normal person, who gets out of the hospital on his
own two feet. The only thing on which I could work was my mind.
Once you have a mind you can put things into their place. I was
connected to a breathing apparatus and the doctors said I could not
breathe again. But I could hear inside me a voice saying: Breath
deeply, breath deeply. So finally I didnt need the apparatus
26
anymore. The doctors had no explanation. I couldnt afford anything
that could distract me from my purpose and my vision enter my
mind. I had as a goal getting out of hospital before Christmas. Eight
months later I got out on my own two feet. The doctors were amazed.
I will never forget that day. For those who follow me now and suffer,
if I were to resume my life and give them a piece of advice, I would
say Man becomes what he thinks.

There are so many people who live their lives conditioned by what is
outside. They look around, see wonderful things, and say we want
more of these things; we agree to them, we are ready to support their
production. But then they look at the things they dont want.
Terrible things, they dont want to experience. We need to do
something to get rid of these. But they dont realize that by fighting
against something they dont want, they add energy to those things.
There is a whole war in the world against poverty, cancer,
adolescence pregnancy, terrorism, violence, terrorism. Did I say war
against terrorism? All these efforts only make you add energy to
those bad things, because you cannot say No and thus make the
thing go away. The Law of Attraction acts here too.

Resisting something makes it persist. - C. Jung

What you dont like persists because of your resistance, the fact that
you say I dont like this; it makes me feel the way I feel now. So
what you do is give life to this emotion, "Wow, I hate this," and it is
there, comes to you. Anti-warrior movements create more wars. Anti-
drug movements create even more drugs. Because we focus on what
we dont like. Why not focus on this? people say. This is true.
This is as if you said that if someone paid something he didnt want
enough attention so that thing becomes real, this is what I should
also do. But we dont really follow this reasoning. Mother Theresa
was great, she used to say: Never will I join anti-war movements,
invite me only if there are peace movements. She knew. She
understood the secret. Just look at what she produced in the world.
So if you are anti-warrior, be pro-peace. If you fight again hunger, be
27
for those people who have much food. If you are against a politician,
become his pro-opponent. Many times elections are won by the
person people rejected because that person draws the attention.

You need to focus on what you want, not on what you dont want. It
is better to be aware of what you dont want, because this is the
contrast element for what you really want. But the truth is that the
more you speak about what you dont want, or speak about how
nasty it is, or inform about it all the time, and then comment how
terrible it is, the more you cause that thing to grow bigger.

People keep telling me "Well, James, I need to be informed." Maybe
you need this too. But you dont need to be flooded. Learn to be calm
and not to pay attention to what you dont want, and to the emotions
the thing you dont want bring and focus your attention on what you
desire. I have always said that when the voice and the vision inside
you become more profound, clearer and purer than the outside
opinions, you have become the master of your own life. You are not
here to make the world become what you want it to be. You are here
to create around you the world you desire while you allow the others
to have the world they desire.

One of the questions I am asked all the time and which probably is
in your minds is the following: If all the people use the secret, and if
all the people use the universe as if it were a catalogue, wont it all
come to the point when things finish? What is great about the secret
is that there a lot of these things for everybody. The contrary is a lie
which acts as a virus upon human mind. The lie is that good things
are not enough for everybody.

There are flaws, there is limitation this lie makes people live in fear,
greed, poverty, and the thoughts connected to fear, poverty and flaws
become their own experience. So people live a nightmare.
The truth is that good things are more than enough. There are a lot
of creative ideas; there is energy, love, joy. All these come from
intelligence aware of its infinite nature.
28
Each great teacher who ever lived on this planet said that life is
made to be abundant. The very moment we feel the resources get
less, we find new resources to reach our goals. So when we say we
live in poverty it is because we do not open the eyes of our mind to
see what is around us.
If everybody lived their lives to the full and went towards what they
want, they wouldnt fight for the same things. This is the beauty.

Not all of us want BMWs. Not all of us want the same person. Not all
of us need the same experiences. Not all of us need the same clothes.
Not all of us want to be. And here you may continue yourself.
There is enough for everyone.If you can believe in this idea, if you
can see it, if you can act on it. It will show to you. This is the truth.
So let the diversity of the reality make you shiver, while you choose
the things you want out of it.

When you want something, think about it. Find in yourself the place
of the feeling corresponding to that something. Look at things from
the inside. Speak and write about it. Turn it into your own reality,
and become its echo.
When you come across things you dont want dont talk about them.
Dont write about them. Do not adhere to groups that fight against
them. Dont fight them. Withdraw your attention from the things you
dont desire, while you dedicate your undivided attention to the
things you desire.

Most of the past leaders failed to understand a great part of the
Secret which refers to sharing the secret with the others. We live
the most wonderful period in history. It is for the first time we have
knowledge in our hands. When we look around us, even at our body,
what we see is only the top of the iceberg. Look at your own hand. It
looks solid but in fact it is not. If you look at it through a
microscope, you can see an energy mass that vibrates. Everything is
made the same way, if it is about your hand, ocean or stars.
Everything is energy. There is the Universe, our galaxy, our planet.
29
Then, there are the individuals, and inside the bodies there are the
organs, then the cells, molecules, atoms and energy.

There are many levels to analyze. Everything in the universe is
energy. It does not matter what city you live in, what really matters
is that you have in your own body enough power to illuminate the
city for a week. Most people define themselves starting from this
body, but you are not a finite body. You are in fact an energy field.
What you know about energy is the following: go to a quantum
physics specialist and ask him: "What is it that creates the world?
And he will say, "Energy." Lets describe energy. First of all it cannot
be created or destroyed. It has existed forever, everything there is
keeps being, it takes a shape, keeps it for a while and then gives it
up. Go to a theologian and ask him "Who created the universe? he
will answer God. God has existed forever, cannot be created or
destroyed. He is everything there is and will be, takes a shape, keeps
it for a while and then gives it up. As you can see it is the same
thing, expressed differently. If you think you are only a package of
walking meat, think again. You are a spiritual being an energetic
field acting in a larger energetic field. We are all connected to each
other. We only dont realize it. There is no inside or outside. The
whole universe is interconnected; everything is a huge energetic field.

We are all extensions of the energy Source. You exist in this
wonderful body, but it has distracted your attention from what you
really are. You are the energy Source. You are an Eternal being, you
are Gods power. You are what you call God. According to the
Scripture, you are alike Him. We can say we are a way the Universe
becomes aware of itself. We can say we are an infinite body of
possibilities. All this is true. It means you have the Gods power and
potential to create your own world.

Maybe you have come to this wonderful moment or maybe not. The
problem is as it follows: is what you have accomplished in life what
you really want, good for you? If it is not, when will you change this?
Because you have the power to do this.
30

All the power comes from inside and this is why we can control it. - R.
Collies

Many people feel victims all their lives and point to past events, to an
abusive father or a dysfunctional family. I could add that most
psychologists believe that 85% of the families are dysfunctional, so
you are not an isolated case.
My parents were alcoholics.
My father used to beat me up, and my mother left him when I was 6.
Between 13 and 18 I was part of neighborhood gangs.
I had a terrible motorcycle accident.
At one point of my life I was a tramp I in Dallas.
I was poor for 15 years in Houston.
I had problems at school as a child and I was considered retarded. I
was told I could not read, write or communicate ever in my life, that I
would never become something.
This is, more or less, everybodys story. So what? The real WHAT is
what you are going to do now. What do you choose now? Because
you can very well focus on negative things, or focus on what you
want.
When people start focusing on what they want, what they dont want
goes away. While they gain field on one side, the other side goes
away.

We want you to come to the point where to open your mind, guide
your thoughts to a goal, and be the creator of your own experience.
Because you are the manager of your own thoughts.
The good side of the Law of Attraction is that you can start applying
it anytime. You can start thinking for real and you can generate
inside of you a feeling of harmony and happiness. The Law of
Attraction will answer you. So you will begin having other beliefs
the belief that the Universe means abundance. Or the belief that
everything is going on well. Or the belief that you are not growing
old, but young. You can do all these things by using the Law of
Attraction. Thus you can get rid of hereditary models, cultural
31
customs, social convictions and prove to yourself, once for all, that
the power inside you is greater than the one outside you.
Some of you probably think that all these are wonderful but I
cannot put them into practice or she will never let me do this or
he will never let me do this or I dont have the money to do this or
Im not strong enough to do this or Im not rich enough to do this
or Im not, Im not, Im not! Every Im not is a creation.

If either you think you can, or thing that you cannot, you are right. -
H. Ford

Is there a limit? No! We are unlimited creatures. There are no
barriers for us. The potential, the talent, the gifts and the power
within every individual on this planet are unlimited. There is no book
in the sky where God wrote what is destined to you. If you think that
what you need to do to understand you role on this planet is find
this book and read what God has planned for you, well, you need to
know there is no such book. So your only purpose is the one you
establish and your only mission is the one you choose.

Your life will be what you will make of it. Nobody will judge it. Never.
I needed many years to understand it, because I have grown up with
the idea that I was born to do something and if I dont do it, God will
not be pleased with me. Now, when I understand that my role is
finding and live the joy, I have begun to do only the things that bring
me joy.

There is a saying "If you dont enjoy what you are doing, dont do it.
Joy, love, freedom, happiness, laughter. This is it. If you feel joy after
an hour of meditation, then meditate. If you feel joy while eating a
salami sandwich, then eat it. When I take care of my cat I enjoy it,
when I walk in nature, I enjoy it. So I desire to keep this state. In
order to do this I only need to outline the idea of what I want and it
will come to life. The recipe for success is inner happiness. Anything
that makes you feel good attracts even better things.
32
Now watch this movie. You are the one who brought it to life and you
are the one who decides to use it or not. If it makes you feel better,
leave it alone. Find something to make you feel better, to be in
harmony with your heart.

Follow your happiness and the universe will open doors where there
were only walls. - J. Campbell

Joseph Campbell used to say "follow your happiness." These are the
most sensible words a man has ever uttered. If you follow your
happiness you follow the way to abundance and wealth in all areas.
Enjoy life because life is great. It is a great trip. Otherwise you will
live a different reality, a different life. People will start watching you
and will wonder what is different about you. The fact that you apply
the Secret. You will have things the others thought impossible to
have. You will really enter a new era. The final frontier is not space,
but the human mind.
I can see the future of an everlasting potential. Unlimited
possibilities. Remember that we only use at the most 5% of the
human mind potential. In order to rich the 100% we need to become
educated. Imagine a world where people would use their entire
mental and emotional potential. We could get anywhere. We could do
anything. Build anything.
Picture yourself together with what you want. All religious books tell
us this. All great philosophy books tell us this. All great leaders.
Study the wise. Many of them were presented to you in this movie.
They understood the secret. Now you understand it too. The more
you use it, the better you will understand it.

Maybe you have the feeling it would have been easier for you if you
had heard it on your first day on earth. We would have told you then
Welcome on Earth. There is nothing here you cannot do or you
cannot have. You are a great creator and you are here thanks to your
string will to be here. Follow your path, thinking of what you want,
attracting experiences to make up your mind about what you want.
And when you have decided, thing about this only.
33
You will spend most of the time gathering data to help you decide
what you really want. But your real job is to decide what you want
and then focus on that thing. Because of this concentration you will
attract what you desire. This is the creation process.

I believe you are magnificent. That there is something magnificent
inside of you. It does not matter what happened into your life. It does
not matter how old or young you think you are. The moment you
start thinking the right way, the power inside you will prove to be
greater than the world. It will start to manifest itself. It will lead your
life. It will feed you, guide you, and protect you. It will direct you. It
will support your existence, if you will allow it. Im sure of it. ENJOY
LIFE. Receive these things open-heartedly. You dont need to do
anything. Do only what you want to do.
