The Secret

Have you seen the online movie, "The Secret"? It is about "the law of attraction" which states that what you focus on you get.  Some believe fervently in this principle and others say it is rediculous.

Those who do not believe in "The Secret" say that you cannot improve your life by wishing for things. You cannot focus on having a new car and then miraculous get a new car.  Many of these people do not believe in postive thinking type seminars and the RAH! RAH! RAH!, YOU ARE GREAT type thinking they promote.

I am one who does believe in postive thinking.  I believe that what you focus on you get.  I believe in believing.  I am not sure that if I think of attracting a new Cadillac or Mercedes into my life that it wii manefest itself out of thin air.

However, I do believe that if I focus my attention on the things that will bring me that new  car, and I truly envision having it, that it it very possible that I will get it a lot sooner than if I never thought about it. It may not appear out of thin air, but it could easily appear out of applied work and preparation for having it.

Is is possible that I would do more things correctly  in my life if I expected a new Mercedes than if I expected a used, older beater of a car.  If I truly wanted a new Mercedes isn't it possible that I would go after it?

As The Secret says, I think we often focus to stongly on the things we do not want instead of the things we do want.  I often focus on what I have not done for the last day instead of what I can do today. 

If my thoughts on what I did wrong instead of what I did right, could it be that I will attract more of the wrong instead of the right?  That is the premise of The Secret.
