They say you are what you eat, but according to the secret, you are what you think. Whatever you want to be, you have the ability to be it, and the secret will tell you how to get there.

You will learn that the universe works according to the law of attraction and how you can use that knowledge to your advantage while working towards creating your dream life.

THE SECRET TO LIFE IS THE LAW OF ATTRACTION.

Rhonda Byrne author of the book was feeling unhappy and overworked. She thought that there must be a better way to live.

The Science of Getting Rich helped her greatly, written in 1910, Byrne learned that there was a secret law that governs the workings of the universe.

Continuing her research, Byrne realized that poets like Ralph Waldo Emerson and William Blake, and philosophers like Goethe and Plato, as well as all the major religions, referred one powerful law: The Law Of Attraction.

In fact, this law is the most powerful one in the universe; the law of attraction states that what you put out into the universe is what you will receive in return. So, if you are full of frustration, anger and other negative thoughts and emotions, you will only receive more bad things to be angry and frustrated.

Conversely, if you are sending love, gratitude and praise out into the universe, positive things will come your way. Whatever you tend to think and feel is what you will attract to yourself.

What occupies your mind the most will influence your state of being. If you are spending the majority of your time thinking about things that make you angry, sad or disappointed, these thoughts will come to define your life.

For example, if you spend most of your day worrying about debt, you are pretty much guaranteed to stay in debt.

The good news is, you have the power to change it – and you can start right now!

THE LAW OF ATTRACTION DOES NOT LISTEN TO “DON’TS”

The main reason that people are not benefiting from the secret to life is because they focus mainly on what they do not want instead of what they do want.

But the law of attraction does not comprehend “don’ts.”

If you spend most of your day preoccupied with the thought “I do not want to fail the exam,” the message you are actually sending to the universe is “I want to fail the exam,” since “don’ts” aren’t recognized.

Therefore, to change your current state, the message you send out has to be positive. You need to tell the universe what you do want, for example: “I want to pass the exam,” or, “I want to live debt-free,”

 

The more exact you are in what you want, the better:

I want to live debt-free by the end of the year.

THERE ARE THREE STEPS TO CREATING THE UNIVERSE YOU WANT TO LIVE IN.

Your thoughts are like a TV transmission tower, constantly broadcasting your requests out into the universe. So if you do not like what you are receiving, you need to change the frequency!

The message is simple: you are the creator of your universe, and you can start to shape the world that you want with these three steps:

The first step is to ASK.

Be clear about what you want or desire. The best way to make sure the universe knows what you are after is to write it down according to a specific structure. Use the present tense and ask with gratitude, as if it is already yours, like so:

“I am grateful to have [insert your desire here].”

The next step is to BELIEVE.

You need to have unwavering faith, and you need to radiate the feeling and confidence that comes from your faith so that the universe gets the strongest possible signal.

The final step is to RECEIVE.

This is also about sending out the right frequency by imagining the feeling you will have once you get what your heart desires. You could use a mantra to help simulate that feeling and repeat

I am receiving now. I am receiving all the good in my life now. I am receiving [insert your desire here] now.

By ASKING, BELIEVING AND RECEIVING, you will create a positive environment in which you can achieve what you want.

A WEALTHY, HEALTHY AND LOVING RELATIONSHIP REQUIRES VISUALIZATION AND A POSITIVE MINDSET.

When trying to ensure that positive thoughts are your most dominant thoughts, you might find yourself feeling overly anxious about any negative thoughts that threaten to emerge. But you need not worry. If you worry about negative thoughts, you will only make them worse.

What you should do is let that negativity pass as effortlessly as you can, and focus on the good.

For instance, if you want to be wealthy, make that the focus of your thoughts. Grab a pen and write,

I am grateful to earn one hundred thousand dollars a year.

To help you believe and receive positive thought, you need to visualize the end result.

No matter what you ask for, visualization is key in helping you achieve it.

Let me give you a simple practical example, that you can try:

If you want to get wealthy, try this out print out your bank statement and cover your current balance with white ink and then write down the amount you really want to have.

Visual aids like this can help you to really believe that you will achieve what you want and that the universe will make it possible for you. It will redirect your thinking to the right frequency.

Following these steps will help with positive thinking, as well as the belief that you deserve good things, especially in your relationships.

Remember to treat yourself and others as you would like to be treated. When you learn to love and respect yourself, you will find the universe sending you someone else to love.

Unlike other wishes, love only exists as a feeling. You can only raise this emotion within yourself. The more you think about loving thoughts and send out positive vibes, the more likely the same good feelings will come back to you.

Positive thinking can lead to weight loss and good health.

Think that our emotions have no impact on our health and weight gain? Think again.

According to the author, to lose weight, the key is to avoid thinking “fat thoughts” and instead, start thinking “thin thoughts.”

Many diets fail to work because they keep you focused on negative thoughts, such as, “I do not want to be fat,” thereby worrying you into thinking that food controls your body.

You should not spend your life worrying, and certainly not about every little calorie of food you eat. Instead, you should realize that food does not control your body – you do.

If you want to be like one of those people who eat whatever they want and do not gain any weight, you need to stop worrying and start thinking like them.

To get your ideal body, the first step is to ask for it. Then you need to believe and trust that you will reach that ideal body type. After that, you can receive and start feeling good about yourself and enjoy the moment.

Besides weight loss, having a healthy body that can take care of itself is also the result of your emotions. Many ailments derive from stress, which in turn is caused by negative thinking, so you can greatly improve your well-being by changing the way you think.

According to the author, when a person really believes their body can cure itself, that belief becomes a reality, demonstrating the scientifically-proven placebo effect.

Avoid resistance and recognize that you are in control and will live in harmony with the universe.

There is a force in the universe that is responsible for creating the world we live in. It has always been there and always will be.

Similar language was and is often used when we talk or hear about God. Choosing a specific name for this force is less important than realizing that it exists – and understand your relationship with it.

Remember, you have complete control over your thoughts, and thus complete control over what comes your way. No one else can create your universe for you.

Sometimes it might feel like your past is controlling your future, whether through regrets over a wrong choice you made or trauma from an unpleasant experience. But if you keep true to the secret and focus only on what you want, the grip of the past will gradually loose and you will realize that you control your fate.
