You know, I am torn. One of the things that led me to exploring the LOA and my own inner workings was The Secret. But I was...whatever enough...to recognize that it was like an appetizer and not the whole enchilada, so I started doing some research and reading and asking a lot of questions and I spent a lot of time evaluating the answers. And it has led me to the most astounding growth in my personal development that I have ever been through. So, for that, I am grateful to The Secret and glad it was made.
But then, it is so cheesy and comes off like such an informercial and the 'teachers' from The Secret are now so much more caught up in selling it than TEACHING it that I am afraid to mention it to anybody for fear they are going to label me a naive kook.
I will not be sorry to see some of the hype die down. I am sorry that people are missing out on the real benefits of learning about how our attitudes effect our lives because they are put off by the excessive commercialization of The Secret.
