REVIEW:

The book “The Secret” is an outcome of the goodwill of Rhonda Byrne who intended to reveal to
the world the secret that changed her life and has existed for centuries but was known by few.
This book has proved to be a life changer for several people around the globe by emphasizing
one simple formula that by changing one’s thoughts and feelings one can achieve everything in
life. The author intends to reveal the secret to achieve happiness, wealth, abundance and
everything else in this world. This secret is used by many people but most of the time they are
unaware of this fact. She has backed up her claims about “the secret to everything” by strong
evidences from the past. In fact the book is based on the views and real life examples of teachers
of law of attraction – the core concept of the book.

The book successfully achieves its purpose (of letting people understand the power of their
thoughts, feelings and visualizations or imaginations) through detailed explanations with
examples. The idea goes like “thoughts becomes things”. All one need is to think what he/she
wants and feel positive about it. Since like attracts like, the law of attraction would attract to you
what you feel. By following three simple steps (ask, believe, receive), law of attraction can be
activated. Ask for your desires, believe that you will receive it and feel that you have actually
received it and lastly receive it. In fact we shape our reality through our thoughts. Whatever the
present condition of a person is, it depends on his/her past thoughts and feelings. Rhonda Byrne
explains her theory scientifically too. It is proved by quantum physics theory that everything in
this world has a vibrating frequency. Same goes with our thoughts that act like magnets and
vibrates at different frequencies. And as they are sent into Universe they attract the like. So if a
person focuses on positive thoughts, he/she will only attract positive outcomes and vice versa.

The best thing about the book is that it describes the hidden secret that we used many times but
were unaware of it. It too, goes with the label of the book The Secret – the secret known for
centuries but still hidden. We apply these rules like be positive, show gratitude and get more, etc
in our daily lives. But were not aware of the great impact it could have on our lives. Moreover,
similar practices are emphasized by our religion too. The book represents in a very organized
manner what we already know and had experienced intentionally or unintentionally.
The importance of feelings and emotions has been discussed by the author in a detailed manner.
It targets all sizes of population for instance in one of the examples the author describes the story
of a ten years old child and the way he used the power of his thoughts to change his wish into
reality. A documentary movie has also been made on this book and it is a smart move to spread
the message into a greater chunk of population. Moreover, it has statements of renowned
personalities from different field of life that includes philosophers, coachers, entrepreneurs,
healers, trainers, teachers and motivational speakers. Along with it, the author teaches different
shortcuts to implement the law of attraction in our lives.

The long short story is that it’s a great book with its centre of attention lying on its reader.
Rhonda Byrne, throughout the book addresses the reader as “you” that seems quit inviting to the
reader. The idea is so simple and has been explained in an easy to comprehend way that reader
unconsciously approves the theories discussed. All in all, with its life changing message written
in an easy to understand context, the secret is a must read to improve one’s life by unfolding the
power one has within oneself.
