- Hello my friend, Gustavo Almeida here.
Today we're gonna talk about The Secret.
You probably, maybe you have seen the movie.
Or maybe you read the book.
Or at least probably you heard about it.
The Secret was released back in 2006.
So about 11 years ago.
And I'm gonna talk about it because
if you're into personal development
and you wanna use personal development
to help you achieve your goals,
and you want to become more successful
in your online business,
I think watching the Secret
can have a very good effect.
But at the same time, I think many people,
they get it a little bit wrong.
They don't see the whole picture and they tend to
overlook one or two points of it
which are very important.
So first of all, what is the secret?
The secret is the law of attraction.
You probably heard about it before.
The movie is 11 years old,
but the concept of the law of attraction
and all the ideas about what it stands for,
they're not new.
Rhonda Byrne, the author of the book,
of the movie the Secret,
she says that her main inspiration
for making the movie was the book
the Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles.
So that book was written in 1910.
Yes, 1910.
That book has over 100 years now.
If you watch the movie the Secret
and you read the Science of Getting Rich,
you'll find many similar points.
You'll see that they talk,
a great deal of what is talked about
on one of them is also talked about on the other.
They may call, they may use different names,
but in reality you can understand
that they are talking about the same stuff.
Another book that relates a lot with those two
is Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich.
So I'm not gonna explain you and say all what the Secret
is about, but I'm gonna talk about it in a shorter way.
So the concept of the Secret is that you can,
you are a creator.
You can create your reality
and you do it with your thoughts and your feelings.
So if you're feeling good,
you will have good events happen in your life.
If you're feeling bad, the opposite will happen.
And there's a straight relation
between thoughts and feelings.
And they say that the more vivid feelings and passionate
feelings you have, the faster things will happen.
And they say that this is like gravity.
It's not something you can choose to do or not to do.
It's happening, it's working.
And even if you ignore it,
you can't escape to be affected by the way this works.
The Secret, something that you're gonna hear
throughout the movie, is that like attracts like.
So that's kind of, again, that goes around
the same thing that I said a short while ago.
Good feelings attract good feelings.
Good feelings attract good
and good events and circumstances.
So like attracts like.
So the idea, in a way I think that one
of the main advantages that I got with
the Secret was kind of a mental cleansing, if you will.
They say that you should track your thoughts
and you should be aware of what you're thinking.
Of course like anything, when you start doing it
it might feel a little overwhelming.
But as you start to get ahold of it, it becomes easier.
The idea is to not allow bad feelings to,
I mean you can't just avoid them completely,
but at least try to make them last less time
and be less strong
so you can rapidly go back to feeling good.
So what are the three steps?
The three steps are ask, believe, and receive.
The first step, asking, is about you getting clear of what
you want to become, what you want to have, and stating it.
For example, one of the authors
in the Secret is Bob Proctor.
Bob Proctor for years has used a goal card.
It's a small card where you write your goal
and you can keep that card in your wallet.
And you can watch it at night before you go to sleep,
in the morning, and in many opportunities during your day.
So something you have to consider is that
you have to be a little specific,
or a lot more specific if you can.
I heard one interview with Joe Vitale,
another author that is featured in the Secret,
and he says that for example, you can't just wish a new car.
That's too vague.
Imagine that you get an old beat-up car.
I mean it's new for you, it's the first time
you're having it, but it's not a new car.
So you have to be specific about what you want.
Something specific would be, I want a 2017
Lexus IS 300H with black leather interior.
So that defines the make, the brand,
the model, the engine, the outside color,
the inside color, the leather and the seats.
So the more specific you get, the better.
So that was the step about asking.
The second one is believing.
And in the Secret,
they use a comparison that I'm gonna use too.
When you go to a restaurant, you make your order,
and then you just relax and wait.
The thing is, when people are trying to use the secret,
many times they are constantly checking,
checking out to see if their goal has materialized.
If their wish came true.
So if you go to a restaurant,
you order your meal, and then you relax and wait.
You know they're gonna bring it to you.
So you gotta adopt the same feeling
regarding your goals here.
There's also another thing they talk about in the step
and I think that that part is very very important.
It is about inspired action.
When you feel inspiration to do something,
you should take action.
For example, I felt inspiration
to make a video about the Secret.
So I took action.
I took a note that I wanted
to do this, and I'm doing it now.
If you feel that it is something that attracts you,
you feel inspired to do it, then you should do it.
The authors say that that means that you're in tune
with the universe, and that helps to bring along your goals.
On the other hand, if you have some kind of idea
to reach your goals but in some way you don't feel
comfortable about it, then you shouldn't go that way.
So there's only one step left.
It's receiving.
So receiving, after you've asked and you believe it,
what you gotta do is feel like you already have it.
There's a saying,
I don't remember the exact words how it goes,
but to become something, you must be something.
So the idea is,
you have to start making changes in your life,
and mainly in your mindset,
so that you can bring along, so you can move yourself
into the position where you wanna be.
And just an example.
Imagine that one of your goals
is having a brand new luxury car.
But you can't afford it.
If you see one on the street,
you can admire it, but at the same time,
you get that feeling that it's out of reach.
So you gotta condition your mind
to believing that you can have it.
You must believe that you can have it.
And you gotta feel like you have it.
This is not just about visualization.
It's not just about imagining it,
like if you were watching images about it.
It's more about feeling like if the car was already yours.
If it helps,
go to the local dealership.
Sit down in a car.
Feel the steering wheel,
feel the leather of the steering wheel.
Feel the leather of the gear knob on the seats.
Smell the leather of the seats.
Feel that scent of the new plastics of the car interior
that are quite strong while the car is new.
So it's a vivid feeling
to make you feel like you're already living what you want.
To sum it up, I think it's not very important
if you believe in what it is said on the Secret.
I know a lot of people don't believe
what is said on the Secret.
But if you don't, just consider that what you find
in the Secret can also be found in a lot of books.
Mainly in some books that I've
read and that I would recommend you.
One of them is the Science of Getting Rich.
Another one is Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.
And believe me, if you don't know those books,
Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich is a classic.
That book is very, very recommended by many people.
It came out I think in the late '30s.
It's an old book, but many people
consider that it's still very, very, very, actual.
That it's not dated.
If you compare the ideas of those books,
you'll see that there are many similar ideas.
And what I think is that the application of those ideas
can bring you a lot of results, a lot of positive results.
And just for a moment,
let's be skeptic for a moment.
Imagine that you start to diminish bad feelings.
Trying to cut them off.
And you spend more time feeling good.
I think we can agree that
the circumstances in your life will get better.
Because if you are feeling better, and you're happier,
and you have better relation with people around you,
that has an effect on people around
you and how they relate to you.
And it also helps you achieving your goals.
In case you wonder,
many successful people,
many of them go as far as saying that their success
was achieved because of the Secret.
One of the people that is a firm believer is Oprah Winfrey.
Oprah at a time was told that
she wasn't the right person to be on TV.
I don't know exactly what they told her,
but she wanted to make television programs
and she was told no.
Nowadays, I mean look at her today,
or even 10 years ago or 20.
She's having a tremendous success with her program.
And she says that she believes in Secret.
So at the beginning, I said that
I think people missed part of the Secret.
So the thing I think people missed is that
people sometimes think that they only need to ask
for what they want and go and sit on the couch
and wait for that thing or that goal to happen.
That's not how things go.
Inspired action, because you have to take action, okay?
So if you're a bit more skeptic,
maybe you could've gotten the idea
that you had to do nothing but just think.
Again that you would sit on your couch,
ask for what you wanted,
and then just lie back and wait.
That's not how it works.
And that's why I believe that the Secret or the teachings
that you'll find on the Science of Getting Rich
or Think and Grow Rich or Thought Vibration
is another book that is about,
it's a book that is about the law of attraction.
If you apply those teachings,
that will help you greatly achieving your goals.
If you haven't seen the movie,
I suggest you watch it.
Even if you don't believe 100%
on what you're told in the movie,
I think a great deal of it, a great deal of it is useful
in helping you achieve your goals.
So I hope this video will help you achieving your goals.
