The leaders in the past who had The Secret wanted to keep the power and not share the power. They kept people ignorant of The Secret. People went to work, they did their job, they came home. They were on a treadmill with no power, because The Secret was kept in the few.

Throughout history there have been many who coveted the knowledge of The Secret and there have been many who found a way of spreading this knowledge to the world.

Alt of this happened because of knowing how to apply The Secret.

BOB PROCTOR

You've probably been sitting there wondering, "What is The Secret?" ill tell you how I've come to understand it.

We all work with one infinite power. We all guide ourselves by exactly the same laws. The natural laws of the universe are so precise that we don't even have any difficulty building spaceships, we can send people to the moon, and we can time the landing with the precision of a fraction of a second.

Wherever you are—India, Australia, New Zealand, Stockholm, London, Toronto, Montreal, or New York—we're all working with one power. One Law. It's attraction!



4 The Secret

The Secret is the law of attraction!

Everything that's coming into your life you are attracting into your life. And it's attracted to you by virtue of the images you're holding in your mind. It's what you're thinking.

Whatever is going on in your mind you are attracting to you.

"Every thought of yours is a real thing—a force."

The greatest teachers who have ever lived have told us that the law of attraction is the most powerful law in the Universe.

Poets such as William Shakespeare, Robert Browning, and William Blake delivered it in their poetry. Musicians such as Ludwig van Beethoven expressed it through their music. Artists such as Leo-nardo da Vinci depicted it in their paintings. Great thinkers including Socrates, Plato, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Pythagoras, Sir Francis Bacon, Sir Isaac Newton, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and Victor Hugo shared it in their writings and teachings. Their names have been immortalized, and their legendary existence has survived centuries.

Religions, such as Hinduism, Hermetic traditions, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and civilizations, such as the ancient Babylonians and Egyptians, delivered it through their writings and stories. Recorded throughout the ages in all its forms, the



The Secret Revealed 5

law can be found in ancient writings through all the centuries. It was recorded in stone in 3000 BC. Even though some coveted this knowledge, and indeed they did, it has always been there for anyone to discover.

The law began at the beginning of time. It has always been and will always be.

It is the law that determines the complete order in the Universe, every moment of your life, and every single thing you experience in your life. It doesn't matter who you are or where you are, the law of attraction is forming your entire life experience, and this all-powerful law is doing that through your thoughts. You are the one who calls the law of attraction into action, and you do it through your thoughts.

In 1912 Charles Haanel described the law of attraction as "the greatest and the most infallible law upon which the entire system of creation depends."

BOB PROCTOR

Wise people have always known this. You can go right back to the ancient Babylonians. They've always known this. It's a small select group of people.

The ancient Babylonians and their great prosperity have been well documented by scholars. They are also known for creating one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Hanging Gardens



6 The Secret

of Babylon. Through their understanding and application of the laws of the Universe, they became one of the wealthiest races in history.

BOB PROCTOR

Why do you think that 1 percent of the population earns around 96 percent of all the money that's being earned? Do you think that's an accident? It's designed that way. They understand something. They understand The Secret, and now you are being introduced to The Secret.

People who have drawn wealth into their lives used The Secret, whether consciously or unconsciously. They think thoughts of abundance and wealth, and they do not allow any contradictory thoughts to take root in their minds. Their predominant thoughts are of wealth. They only know wealth, and nothing else exists in their minds. Whether they are aware of it or not, their predominant thoughts of wealth are what brought wealth to them. It is the law of attraction in action.

A perfect example to demonstrate The Secret and the law of attraction in action is this: You may know of people who acquired massive wealth, lost it all, and within a short time acquired massive wealth again. What happened in these cases, whether they knew it or n o t is that their dominant thoughts were on wealth; that is how they acquired it in the first instance. Then they allowed fearful thoughts of losing the wealth to enter their minds, until those fearful thoughts of loss became their dominant thoughts. They tipped the scales from thinking thoughts of wealth to thinking







The Secret Revealed

thoughts of loss, and so they lost it all. Once they had lost it however, the fear of loss disappeared, and they tipped the scales back with dominant thoughts of wealth. And wealth returned.

The law responds to your thoughts, no matter what they may be.

JOHN ASSARAF

The simplest way for me to look at the law of attraction is if I think of myself as a magnet, and I know that a magnet wilt attract to it

You are the most powerful magnet in the Universe! You contain a magnetic power within you that is more powerful than anything in this world, and this unfathomable magnetic power is emitted through your thoughts.

BOB DOYLE

BOB DOYLE

AUTHOR AND LAW OF ATTRACTION SPECIALIST

Basically put, the law of attraction says that like attracts like. But we're really talking at a level of thought.

The law of attraction says like attracts like, and so as you think a thought, you are also attracting like thoughts to you. Here are more



8 The Secret

examples you may have experienced of the law of attraction in your life:

Have you ever started to think about something you were not happy about, and the more you thought about it the worse it seemed? That's because as you think one sustained thought, the law of attraction immediately brings more like thoughts to you. In a matter of minutes, you have gotten so many like unhappy thoughts coming to you that the situation seems to be getting worse. The more you think about it, the more upset you get.

You may have experienced attracting like thoughts when you listened to a song, and then found that you couldn't get that song out of your head. The song just kept playing over and over in your mind. When you listened to that song, even though you may not have realized it, you gave your full attention and focus of thought to it. As you did that, you were powerfully attracting more like thoughts of that song, and so the law of attraction moved into action and delivered more thoughts of that song, over and over again.

JOHN ASSARAF

Our job as humans is to hold on to the thoughts of what we want, make it absolutely clear in our minds what we want, and from that we start to invoke one of the greatest laws in the Universe, and that's the law of attraction. You become what you think about most but you also attract what you think about most.









The Secret Revealed 9

Your life right now is a reflection of your past thoughts. That includes all the great things, and all the things you consider not so great. Since you attract to you what you think about most, it is easy to see what your dominant thoughts have been on every subject of your life, because that is what you have experienced. Until now!

Now you are learning The Secret, and with this knowledge, you can change everything.

BOB PROCTOR

If you see it in your mind, you're going to hold it in your hand.

If you can think about what you want in your mind, and make that your dominant thought, you will bring it into your life.

MIKE DOOLEY

AUTHOR AND INTERNATIONAL SPEAKER

And that principle can be summed up in three simple words. Thoughts become things!

Through this most powerful law, your thoughts become the things in your life. Your thoughts become things! Say this over to yourself and let it seep into your consciousness and your awareness. Your thoughts become things!

JOHN ASSARAF

What most people don't understand is that a thought has a frequency. We can measure a thought. And so if you're





10 The Secret

thinking that thought over and over and over again, if you're imagining in your mind having that brand new car, having the money that you need, building that company, finding your soul mate... if you're imagining what that looks like, you're emitting that frequency on a consistent basis.

DR, JOE VITALE

Thoughts are sending out that magnetic signal that is drawing the parallel back to you.

"The predominant thought or the mental attitude is the magnet, and the law is that like attracts like, consequently, the mental attitude will invariably attract such conditions as

correspond to its nature."

Thoughts are magnetic, and thoughts have a frequency. As you think, those thoughts are sent out into the Universe, and they magnetically attract all like things that are on the same frequency.

Everything sent out returns to the source. And that source is You.

Think of it this way: we understand that a television station's transmission tower broadcasts via a frequency, which is transformed into pictures on your television. Most of us don't really understand how it works, but we know that each channel has a frequency,



The Secret Revealed 11

and when we tune into that frequency we see the pictures on our television. We choose the frequency by selecting the channel, and we then receive the pictures broadcast on that channel. If we want to see different pictures on our television, we change the channel and rune into a new frequency.

You are a human transmission tower, and you are more powerful than any television tower created on earth. You are the most powerful transmission tower in the Universe. Your transmission creates your life and it creates the world. The frequency you transmit reaches beyond cities, beyond countries, beyond the world. It re-verberates throughout the entire Universe. And you are transmitting that frequency with your thoughts!

The pictures you receive from the transmission of your thoughts are not on a television screen in your living room, they are the pictures of your life! Your thoughts create the frequency, they attract like things on that frequency, and then they are broadcast back to you as your life pictures. If you want to change anything in your life, change the channel and change the frequency by changing your thoughts.

"The vibrations of mental forces are the finest and consequently the most powerful in existence."







12 The Secret

BOB PROCTOR

See yourself living in abundance and you will attract it. It works every time, with every person.

As you think of yourself living in abundance, you are powerfully and consciously determining your life through the law of attraction. It's that easy. But then the most obvious question becomes,

"Why isn't everybody living the life of their dreams?"

JOHN ASSARAF

Here's the problem. Most people are thinking about what they don't want, and they're wondering why it shows up over and over again.

The only reason why people do not have what they want is because they are thinking more about what they don't want than what they do want. Listen to your thoughts, and listen to the words you are saying. The law is absolute and there are no mis-takes.

An epidemic worse than any plague that humankind has ever seen has been raging for centuries. It is the "don't want" epidemic.







The Secret Revealed 13

People keep this epidemic alive when they predominantly think, speak, act, and focus on what they "don't want." But this is the generation that will change history, because we are receiving the knowledge that can free us of this epidemic! It begins with you,, and you can become a pioneer of this new thought movement by simply thinking and speaking about what you want.

BOB DOYLE

The law of attraction doesn't care whether you perceive something to be good or bad, or whether you don't want it or whether you do want it. It's res-ponding to your thoughts. So if you're looking at a mountain of debt, feeling terrible about it, that's the signal you're putting out into the Universe. "I feel really bad because of all this debt I've got." You're just affirming it to yourself. You feel it on every level of your being. That's what you're going to get more of.

The law of attraction is a law of nature. It is impersonal and it does not see good things or bad things. It is receiving your thoughts and reflecting back to you those thoughts as your life experience. The law of attraction simply gives you whatever it is you are thinking about.

LISA N I C H O L S

AUTHORAND PERSONAL EMPOWERMENT

ADVOCATE

The law of attraction is really obedient. When you think of the things that you want, and you focus on them with all of your intention, then the law of attraction will give you exactly 14 The Secret

what you want, every time. When you focus on the things that you don't want — "I don't want to be late, I don't want to be late"—the law of attraction doesn't hear that you don't want it. It manifests the things that you're thinking of and so it's going to show up over and over and over again. The law of attraction is not biased to wants or don't wants. When you focus on something, no matter what it happens to be, you really are calling that into existence.

When you focus your thoughts on something you want, and you hold that focus, you are in that moment summoning what you want with the mightiest power in the Universe. The law of attraction doesn't compute "don't" or "not" or "no," or any other words of negation. As you speak words of negation, this is what the law of attraction is receiving:

"I don't want to spill something on this outfit."

"I want to spill something on this outfit and I want to spill more things."

"I don't want a bad haircut."

"I want bad haircuts."

"I don't want to be delayed."

"I want delays."

"I don't want that person to be rude to me."

"I want that person and more people to be rude to me."

"I don't want the restaurant to give away our table."

"I want restaurants to give away our tables."

The Secret Revealed 15

"I don't want these shoes to hurt."

"I want shoes to hurt."

"I can't handle all this work."

"I want more work than I can handle."

"I don't want to catch the flu."

"I want the flu and I want to catch more things."

"I don't want to argue."

"I want more arguing."

"Don't speak to me like that."

" I want you to speak to me like that and I want other people to speak to me like that."

The law of attraction is giving you what you are thinking about

—period!

BOB PROCTOR

The law of attraction is always working, whether you believe it or understand it or not.

The law of attraction is the law of creation. Quantum physicists tell us that the entire Universe emerged from thought! You create your life through your thoughts and the law of attraction, and every single person does the same. It doesn't just work if you know about it. It has always been working in your life and every other person's life throughout history. When you become aware of this great law, then you become aware of how incredibly powerful you are, to be able to THINK your life into existence.



16 The Secret

LISA NICHOLS

It's working as much as you're thinking. Any time your thoughts are flowing, the law of attraction is working.

When you're thinking about the past, the law of attraction's working. When you're thinking about the present or the future, the law of attraction is working. It's an ongoing process. You don't press pause, you don't press stop. It is forever in action, as your thoughts are.

Whether we realize it or not, we are thinking most of the time. If you are speaking or listening to someone, you are thinking. If you are reading the newspaper or watching television, you are thinking. When you recall memories from your past, you are thinking. When you are considering something in your future, you are thinking. When you are driving, you are thinking. When you arc getting ready in the morning, you are thinking. For many of us, the only time we are not thinking is when we are asleep; however, the forces of attraction are still operating on our last thoughts as we fall asleep. Make your last thoughts before going to sleep good thoughts.

MICHAEL BERNARD BECKWITH

Creation is always happening. Every time an individual has a thought, or a prolonged chronic way of thinking, they're in the creation process. Something is going to manifest out of those thoughts.

What you are thinking now is creating your future life. You create your life with your thoughts. Because you are always thinking, you



The Secret Revealed 17

are always creating. What you think about the most or focus on the most is what will appear as your life.

Like all the laws of nature, there is utter perfection in this law. You create your life. Whatever you sow, you reap! Your thoughts are seeds, and the harvest you reap will depend on the seeds you plant.

If you are complaining, the law of attraction will powerfully bring into your life more situations for you to complain about. If you are listening to someone else complain and focusing on that sympa-thizing with them, agreeing with them, in that moment, you are attracting more situations to yourself to complain about.

The law is simply reflecting and giving back to you exactly what you are focusing on with your thoughts. With this powerful knowledge, you can completely change every circumstance and event in your entire life, by changing the way you think.

BILL HARRIS

TEACHER AND FOUNDER OF

CENTERPOINTE RESEARCH INSTITUTE

I had a student named Robert, who was taking an online course I have, part of which entails email access to me.

Robert was gay. He outlined all of the grim realities of his life in his emails to me. In his job, his coworkers ganged up on him. It was constantly stressful because of how nasty 18 The Secret

they were with him. When he walked down the street, he was accosted by homophobic people who wanted to abuse him in some way. He wanted to become a stand-up comedian, and when he did a stand-up comedy job, everybody heckled him about being gay. His whole life was one of unhappiness and misery, and it all focused around being attacked because he was gay.

I began to teach him that he was focusing on what he did not want. I directed him back to his email that he sent me and said, "Read it again. Look at all the things you do not want that you're telling me about. I can tell you're very passionate about this and when you focus on something with a lot of passion, it makes it happen even faster!"

Then he started taking this thing about focusing on what you want to heart, and he began really trying it. What happened within the next six to eight weeks was an absolute miracle. All the people in his office who had been harassing him either transferred to another department, quit working at the company, or started completely leaving him alone. He began to love his job. When he walked down the street, nobody harassed him anymore. They just weren't there. When he did his stand-up comedy routines he started getting standing ovations, and nobody was heckling him!

His whole life changed because he changed from focusing on what he did not want, what he was afraid of, what he wanted to avoid, to focusing on what he did want.









The Secret Revealed 19

Robert's life changed because he changed his thoughts. He emitted a different frequency out into the Universe. The Universe must deliver the pictures of the new frequency no matter how impossible the situation might seem. Robert's new thoughts became his new frequency, and the pictures of his entire life changed.

Your life is in your hands. No matter where you are now, no matter what has happened in your life, you can begin to consciously choose your thoughts, and you can change your life. There is no such thing as a hopeless situation. Every single circumstance of your life can change!

MICHAEL BERNARD BECKWITH

You attract to you the predominant thoughts that you're holding in your awareness, whether those thoughts are conscious or unconscious. That's the rub.

Whether you have been aware of your thoughts in the past or not, now you are becoming aware. Right now, with the knowledge of The Secret, you are waking up from a deep sleep and becoming aware! Aware of the knowledge, aware of the law, aware of the power you have through your thoughts.







20 The Secret

DR JOHN DEMARTINI

If you look very carefully when it comes to The Secret, and the power of our mind and the power of our intention in our daily lives, it's all around us. All we have to do is open our eyes and look.

LISA NICHOLS

You can see the law of attraction everywhere. You draw everything to yourself. The people, the job, the circumstances, the health, the wealth, the debt, the joy, the car that you drive, the community that you're in. And you've drawn them all to you, like a magnet. What you think about you bring about Your whole life is a manifestation of the thoughts that go on in your head.

This is a Universe of inclusion, not exclusion. Nothing is excluded from the law of attraction. Your life is a mirror of the dominant thoughts you think. All living things on this planet operate through the law of attraction. The difference with humans is that they have a mind that can discern. They can use their free will to choose their thoughts. They have the power to intentionally think and create their entire life with their mind.

DR. FRED ALAN WOLF

QUANTUM PHYSICIST, LECTURER,

AND AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR

I'm not talking to you from the point of view of wishful thinking or imaginary craziness. I'm talking to you from a deeper, basic understanding.



The Secret Revealed 21

Quantum physics really begins to point to this discovery. It says that you can't have a Universe without mind entering into it, and that the mind is actually shaping the very thing that is being perceived.

If you think about the analogy of being the most powerful transmission tower in the Universe, you will see the perfect correlation with Dr. Wolf's words. Your mind thinks thoughts and the pictures are broadcast back as your life experience. You not only create your life with your thoughts, but your thoughts add powerfully to the creation of the world, If you thought that you were insignificant and had no power in this world, think again. Your mind is actually shaping the world around you.

The amazing work and discoveries of the quantum physicists over the last eighty years has brought us to a greater understanding of the unfathomable power of the human mind to create.

Their work parallels the words of the world's great minds, including Carnegie, Emerson, Shakespeare, Bacon, Krishnamurti, and Buddha.

BOB PROCTOR

If you don't understand the law that doesn't mean you should reject it. You may not understand electricity, and yet you enjoy the benefits of it. I don't know how it works. But I do knew this: You can cook a man's dinner with electricity, and you can also cook the man!

22 The Secret

MICHAEL BERNARD BECKWITH

Oftentimes when people begin to understand the Great Secret, they become frightened of all the negative thoughts that they have. They need to be aware that it has been scientifically proven that an affirmative thought is hundreds of times more powerful than a negative thought. That eliminates a degree of worry right there.

It really does take many negative thoughts and persistent negative thinking to bring something negative into your life. However, if you persist in thinking negative thoughts over a period of time, they will appear in your life. If you worry about having negative thoughts, you will attract more worrying about your negative thoughts, and multiply them at the same time. Decide right now that you are going to think only good thoughts. At the same time, proclaim to the Universe that all your good thoughts are powerful, and that any negative thoughts are weak.

LISA NICHOLS

Thank God that there's a time delay, that all of your thoughts don't come true instantly. We'd be in trouble if they did. The element of time delay serves you. It allows you to reassess, to think about what you want, and to make a new choice.

All of your power to create your life is available right now, because right now is when you are thinking. If you have had some thoughts that will not be beneficial when they manifest, then right now you can change your thinking. You can erase your previous thoughts by



The Secret Revealed 23

replacing them with good thoughts. Time serves you because you can think new thoughts and emit a new frequency, now!

DR. JOE VITALE

You want to become aware of your thoughts and choose your thoughts carefully and you want to have fun with this, because you are the masterpiece of your own life. You are the Michelangelo of your own life. The David you are sculpting is you.

One way to master your mind is to learn to quiet your mind. Without exception, every teacher in this book uses meditation as a daily practice. It wasn't until I discovered The Secret that I realized how powerful meditation can be. Meditation quiets your mind, helps you control your thoughts, and revitalizes your body. The great news is that you don't have to set aside hours to meditate. Just three to ten minutes a day to begin with, can be incredibly powerful for gaining control over your thoughts.

To become aware of your thoughts, you can also set the intention,

"I am the master of my thoughts." Say it often, meditate on it, and as you hold to that intention, by the law of attraction you must become that.

You are now receiving the knowledge that will enable you to create the most magnificent version of You. The possibility of that version of you already exists on the frequency of "the most magnificent version of You." Decide what you want to be, do, and have, think the thoughts of it, emit the frequency, and your vision will become your life.



• The Great Secret of Life is the law of attraction.

• The law of attraction says like attracts like, so when you think a thought, you are also attracting like thoughts to you.

• Thoughts are magnetic, and thoughts have a frequency. As you think thoughts, they are sent out into the Universe, and they magnetically attract all like things that are on the same frequency. Everything sent out returns to the source—you.

• You are like a human transmission tower, transmitting a frequency with your thoughts. If you want to change anything in your life, change the frequency by changing your thoughts.

• Your current thoughts are creating your future life. What you think about the most or focus on the most will appear as your life.

• Your thoughts become things.

M I C H A E L BERNARD BECKWITH

We live in a universe in which there are laws, just as there is a law of gravity. If you fail off a building it doesn't matter if you're a good person or a had person, you're going to hit the ground.

The law of attraction is a law of nature. It is as impartial and impersonal as the law of gravity is. It is precise, and it is exact DR. JOE VlTALE

Everything that surrounds you right now in your life, including the things you're complaining about, you've attracted. Now I know at first blush that's going to be something that you hate to hear. You're going to immediately say, "I didn't attract the car accident. I didn't attract this particular client who gives me a hard time. I didn't particularly attract the debt." And I'm here to be 27

The Secret

a little bit in your face and to say, yes you did attract it.

This is one of the hardest concepts to get, but once you've accepted it, it's life transforming.

Often when people first hear this part of the Secret they recall events in history where masses of lives were lost, and they find it incomprehensible that so many people could have attracted themselves to the event. By the law of attraction, they had to be on the same frequency as the event. It doesn't necessarily mean they thought of that exact event, but the frequency of their thoughts matched the frequency of the event. If people believe they can be in the wrong place at the wrong time, and they have no control over outside circumstances, those thoughts of fear, separation, and powerlessness, if persistent, can attract them to being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

You have a choice right now. Do you want to believe that it's just the luck of the draw and bad things can happen to you at any time?

Do you want to believe that you can be in the wrong place at the wrong time? That you have no control over circumstances?

Or do you want to believe and know that your life experience is in your hands and that only all good can come into your life because that is the way you think? You have a choice, and whatever you choose to think will become your life experience.

Nothing can come into your experience unless you summon it through persistent thoughts.





The Secret Made Simple 29

BOB DOYLE

Most of us attract by default. We just think that we don't have any control over it. Our thoughts and feelings are on autopilot, and so everything is brought to us by default.

No one would ever deliberately attract anything unwanted.

Without the knowledge of The Secret, it is easy to see how some unwanted things may have occurred in your life or other people's lives. It simply came from a lack of awareness of the great creative power of our thoughts.

DR. JOE VlTALE

Now if this is your first time to hear this, it may feel like,

"Oh, I have to monitor my thoughts? This is going to be a lot of work." It will seem like that at first, but that's where the fun begins.

The fun is that there are many shortcuts to The Secret, and you get to choose the shortcuts that work best for you. Read on, and you'll see how.

MARCI SHIMOFF

AUTHOR, INTERNATIONAL SPEAKER, AND

TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADER

It's impossible to monitor every thought we have.

Researchers tell us that we have about sixty thousand thoughts a day. Can you imagine how exhausted you'd 30 The Secret

feel trying to control all sixty thousand of those thoughts?

Fortunately there's an easier way, and it's our feelings. Our feelings let us know what we're thinking.

The importance of feelings cannot be overstated. Your feelings are your greatest tool to help you create your life. Your thoughts are the primary cause of everything. Everything else you see and experience in this world is effect, and that includes your feelings. The cause is always your thoughts.

BOB DOYLE

/ The emotions are an incredible gift that we have to let us know what we're thinking.

Your feelings tell you very quickly what you're thinking. Think about when your feelings suddenly took a dive—maybe when you heard some bad news. That feeling in your stomach or solar plexus was instant. So your feelings are an immediate signal for you to know what you are thinking.

You want to become aware of how you're feeling, and get in tune with how you're feeling, because it is the fastest way for you to know what you're thinking.

LISA NICHOLS

You have two sets of feelings: good feelings and bad feelings.

And you know the difference between the two because one makes you feel good, and the other makes you feel bad. It's the depression, it's the anger, it's the resentment, it's the guilt. It's The Secret Made Simple 31

those feelings that don't make you feel empowered. Those are the bad feelings.

No one can tell you whether you are feeling good or bad, because you are the only one who knows how you're feeling at any time. If you're not sure how you're feeling, just ask yourself, "How am I feeling?" You can stop and ask this question often during the day, and as you do you will become more aware of how you're feeling.

The most important thing for you to know is that it is impossible to feel bad and at the same time be having good thoughts. That would defy the law, because your thoughts cause your feelings. If you are feeling bad, it is because you are thinking thoughts that are making you feel bad.

Your thoughts determine your frequency, and your feelings tell you immediately what frequency you are on. When you are feeling bad, you are on the frequency of drawing more bad things. The law of attraction must respond by broadcasting back to you more pictures of bad things and things that will make you feel bad.

As you feel bad, and don't make any effort to change your thoughts and feel better, you are in effect saying, "Bring me more circumstances that will make me feel bad. Bring it on!"

LISA NICHOLS

The flipside to that is that you have good emotions and good feelings. You know when they come because they make you feel good. Excitement, joy, gratitude, love. Imagine if we could



32 The Secret

feel that way every day. When you celebrate the good feelings, you'll draw to you more good feelings, and things that make you feel good.

BOB DOYLE

It's really so simple. "What am I attracting right now? " Well, how do you feel? "I feel good." Well good, keep doing that.

It is impossible to feel good and at the same time be having negative thoughts. If you are feeling good, it is because you are thinking good thoughts. You see, you can have whatever you want in your life, no limits. But there's one catch: You have to feel good. And when you think about it, isn't that all you ever want? The law is indeed perfect.

MARCLSHIMOFF

If you're feeling good, then you're creating a future that's on track with your desires. If you're feeling bad, you're creating a future that's off track with your desires. As you go about your day, the law of attraction is working in every second.

Everything we think and feel is creating our future. If you're worried or in fear, then you're bringing more of that into your life throughout the day.

When you are feeling good, you must be thinking good thoughts.

So you are on track and you are emitting a powerful frequency that is attracting back to you more good things that will make you feel good. Seize those moments when you are feeling good, and milk

them. Be aware that as you are feeling good, you are powerfully attracting more good things to you.

Let's go one step further. What if your feelings are actually communication from the Universe to let you know what you're thinking?

JACKCANFIELD

Our feelings are a feedback mechanism to us about whether we're on track or not, whether we're on course or off course.

Remember that your thoughts are the primary cause of everything.

So when you think a sustained thought it is immediately sent out into the Universe. That thought magnetically attaches itself to the like frequency and then within seconds sends the reading of that frequency back to you through your feelings. Put another way, your feelings are communication back to you from the Universe, telling you what frequency you are currently on. Your feelings are your frequency feedback mechanism!

When you are feeling good feelings, it is communication back from the Universe saying, "You are thinking good thoughts" Likewise, when you are feeling bad, you are receiving communication back from the Universe saying, "You are thinking bad thoughts."

So when you are feeling bad it is communication from the Universe, and in effect it is saying, "Warning! Change thinking now.

Negative frequency recording. Change frequency. Counting down to manifestation. Warning!"

The next time you are feeling bad or feeling any negative emotion, listen to the signal you are receiving from the Universe. In that moment you are blocking your own good from coming to you because you are on a negative frequency. Change your thoughts and think about something good, and when the good feelings start to come you will know it was because You shifted yourself on to a new frequency, and the Universe has confirmed it with better feelings.

You 're getting exactly what you're feeling about, not so much what you're thinking about.

That's why people tend to spiral if they stub their toe getting out of bed. Their whole day goes like that. They have no clue that a simple shifting of their emotions can change their entire day—and life.

If you start out having a good day and you're in that particular happy feeling, as long as you don't allow something to change your mood, you're going to continue to attract, by the law of attraction, more situations and people that sustain that happy feeling.

We all have experienced those days or times when one thing after another goes wrong. The chain reaction began with one thought, whether you were aware of it or not. The one bad thought attracted more bad thoughts, the frequency locked in, and eventually something went wrong. Then as you reacted to that one thing going The Secret Made Simple 35

wrong, you attracted more things going wrong. Reactions just attract more of the same, and the chain reaction must keep occurring until you move yourself off that frequency by intentionally changing your thoughts.

You can shift your thoughts to what you want receive confirma-tion through your feelings that you changed your frequency, and the law of attraction will grab hold of that new frequency and send it back to you as the new pictures of your life.

Now here is where you can harness your feelings and use them to turbo-charge what you want in your life.

You can purposefully use your feelings to transmit an even more powerful frequency, by adding feeling to what you are wanting.

You can begin right now to feel healthy. You can begin to feel prosperous. You can begin to feet the love that's surrounding you, even if it's not there. And what will happen is the universe will correspond to the nature of your song. The universe will correspond to the nature of that inner feeling and manifest, because that's the way you feel.

So what are you feeling now? Take a few moments to think about how you feel. If you're not feeling as good as you'd like to, focus on feeling your feelings inside and purposefully lift them. As you focus intensely on your feelings, with the intention to lift yourself, you can powerfully elevate them. One way is to close your eyes

(shutting out distractions), focus on your feelings inside, and smile for one minute.

Your thoughts and your feelings create your life. It will always be that way. Guaranteed!

Just like the law of gravity, the law of attraction never slips up.

You don't see pigs flying because the law of gravity made a mis-take and forgot to apply gravity to pigs that day. Likewise, there are no exclusions to the law of attraction. If something came to you, you drew it, with prolonged thought. The law of attraction is precise.

It's hard to swallow, but when we can begin to open ourselves up to that, the ramifications are awesome. It means that whatever thought has done in your life, it can be undone through a shift in your awareness.

You have the power to change anything, because you are the one who chooses your thoughts and you are the one who feels your feelings.

'You create your own universe as you go along."
