James---AThe problem with 'The Secret'
June 25th 2008 23:51
Here's my problem with 'The Secret': positive thinking will only get you so far.
I can think as positively as I want about losing weight, but it's only going to happen if I get off my arse and start exercising.
I can think as positively as I want about finding the perfect partner, but it's only going to happen if I start putting myself out there, meeting people, and introducing myself.
And likewise, I can think as positively as I want about being a millionaire, but it's only going to happen if I actively start doing something about it every single day. EVERY single day.
So that's my problem with 'The Secret'. It only tells you half the story. Thinking positively is not enough. It's never enough. It's a start - but it won't make you a millionaire. Becoming a millionaire is about initially thinking positively, and then using that momentum to get you to take action every day. The key word is... ACTION.
This post is summed up by one of my favourite quotes: "Faith can move mountains, but you've got to keep pushing while you keep praying."
