[Acting Like Godot]

You have to recognise that the two intention are not mutually exclusive. If you pay fees to join any commercial school to learn anything, you should be able to recognise that the school is making money AND teaching you.

Even if you believe in the Law of Attraction, chances are that you don't buy the simplistic way The Secret states it. They make it seem like magic and they make it seem easy. Too easy.

If you prefer to learn the Law of Attraction in a difficult way, I suggest you try Jose Silva's Mind Control Methods. In my personal experience, its effects are much more profound and direct than the methods that The Secret has mentioned.

The problem with Silva's methods is that they require considerable discipline. You have to be good at passive meditation; and then you have to be good at dynamic meditation, and then you have to keep at it. That requires discipline.

That's why I have semi-given up on them. And that's why, I suspect, Silva never attained the kind of commercial success that "The Secret" is achieving. The difference between Silva and "The Secret" is like the difference between going to the gym for a full, intense workout, versus staying at home and doing a couple of push-ups, sit-ups and easy stretches.

Both are good for your health. One is much better for your health, but takes much more work. The easy solution is easier to sell to the masses.
