The Secret

Will you believe it if someone says that Aladdin’s Genie exists now, and it will grant what you ask? You might think that they are trying to trick you. But it is true that Aladdin’s Genie exists, and it will grant what you wish. I understood this after reading the book named “The Secret”, which was gifted by my Mama & Mami. I would like to Thank them for giving such a wonderful book.

“The Secret” is an amazing book which was written by Rhonda Byrne who worked as an executive producer in Australian Television. Due to her personal situation, she went into depression and that’s when her daughter asked her to read a hundred-year-old book, which was the starting point of her travel to understand the secret of life.

The key message of this book is “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 are holding in your mind. Our job as humans is to hold on to the thoughts of what we want, make it absolutely clear in our minds, and from that we start to invoke one of the greatest laws in the universe, and that’s the law of attraction. If you see it in your mind, you are going to hold it in your hand. Thoughts become things.

There is a word of caution while you think about what you want. We should think exactly what we want. If you want to have good health, then think “I want good health”. Instead if you think “I don’t want to catch the Flu”, then you are only attracting Flu. Similarly, if you want to reach on time think “I want to reach on time”. Instead if you think, “I don’t want to be delayed”, you are only attracting more delays. In nutshell, Law of attraction doesn’t process “don’t” or “not” or any other words of negation. So, focus only on what you want.

Now we know what to think and how to think, is that enough to get what we want? No. There is a 3-step process to be followed, the author calls this “Creative process”. Very simple steps:

  1. Ask à Asking is the first step, so make it a habit to ask

  2. Believe à It involves acting, speaking, and thinking as though you have already received what you asked for.

  3. Receive à This is the final step, receiving involves feeling the way you will feel once your desire has manifested. 

This approach can be implemented for getting more money, good relationships, good health, anything, and everything you want in life. The author gives a good example about the 3-step process. If you want to buy a new car, it is not enough if you ask for it, you should talk about it, also start planning where you will go first in your new car, whom you will take along with you etc. (this is the second step – Believe). And you should start thinking about how you will feel after you buy your car.

This book is all about positive thinking. You think, the genie immediately begins to leverage the Universe, through people, circumstances, and events, to fulfill your wish. Based on your belief, it is either God or Genie or Universe will say “Your wish is my command”. So, what are we waiting for, let’s prepare our wish list, follow the creative process for a fabulous 2023.
