The Secret!

Yesterday I was given a documentary called 'The Secret' from a mate of mine, it is an excellent introduction to the 'Law of Attraction' something which until now I had never heard of.

I watched it with great interest and took in a lot of what was said, however I think that I will need to watch it a few more times and do a bit more research on the topic to truly understand it.

One thing that I have been thinking a lot about since watching it, is the power of energy and how it is all around us everyday, yet we don't really know that much about energy. Everything in the Universe is made up of energy in one form or another.

Another aspect of the documentary that I have now adapted to my life is the use of a 'Gratitude Rock'. A gratitude rock is just an ordinary rock that I now carry around with me in my pocket, Every time that I see the rock or feel the rock I am reminded to just take a second and think about some of the things that I am grateful for. So every morning and night, when I fill and empty my pockets I take a second to be grateful and though-out the day when I get something out of my pockets and feel the rock in them I take a second to be grateful.

One of the analogy's that I liked was as follows: When you take a long drive at night you don't need to see the destination. You only need to see the 50 to 100 meters in front of you that your lights shine on. So long as you can see the next step or the next piece of road you will still get to where you are going.

The Law of Attraction states that the way you act and think will determine the things that you will attract. For example: If you are negative and are always concentrating on the negatives you will attract negative people and negative things. If you are positive and think positive you will attract positive people and positive things.

Another saying that I have heard recently also says a similar thing but in another way: 'Birds of color flock together' - Have you ever seen a crow in a flock of flamingos. Crows are by nature scummy and dirty, The poor birds. The flamingos are majestic and beautiful, the rich birds.
