The Secret
I submitted this in an article but incase it is not accepted for any reason I thought it would be wise to post it on the forums because I feel everyone should read this.
Today during Period 4 in World History we went to the auditorium to watch a video with the rest of the Freshman class. I had no idea what I was about to view and what kind of impact it would propose to me. I learned something so devastating that I can't even comprehend all of the information given to us as a(n) student body.
The Secret is the Law of Attraction.
Like many before us, Einstein, Newton, Shakespeare, Dixon, and etcetera. There are many people that became successful due to their knowledge of the Law of Attraction. In simple terms this law ( LoA ) represents our residual terms and our means of outcome based on past and present thoughts and actions brought forth through each and everyones minds. The more you focus on something, the more it will happen, the LoA doesn't realize that you do or don't want it to happen; it just takes thoughts from you and makes them things. A great example is if you are a worker and have a steady job, you'll expect to have bills in your mailbox; the more you focus on having bills in the mailbox ( whether or not you want to ) the more likely it is to become a reality rather than a figment in your imagination.
Imagination is more powerful than knowledge; I believe Albert Einstein stated this among his years of life. He knew The Secret about LoA and he became what he is known as today. Although, most of you might be reading this thinking I'm a complete and total moron, I've chosen to believe in the Law of Attraction and that my past and present thoughts will shape my future. This article hasn't been previously written and I haven't modified anything or edited information, I have merely stated The Secret in my own words.
You can put the LoA into anything you so choose, because it is this, that creates you.
That is in my personal words and states my opinion, whilst being true to the knowledge I received.

Now i am one of the people that agree's with NICK. You see if you want something good to happen you will see the world as an optimist would, no matter what happens you will find a bright side. Try it one time, you find out your girl is cheating on you then just say "meh at least she'll probaly be less frigid" :D
I have watched that movie and sadly it has quite a few errors, The universe as all things tend to head towards disorder rather than order therefore it would rather have random events rather than planned or influenced ones you can affect the sequence of those events but you can not return them to their previous state such as broken glass will not come together again if you put the same amount of energy as you did to break it.
This is how i like to perseve it, you mind is a powerful tool it affects various enviroments around you and infact can kill you, an example of this can be seen in some south american tribes where there is a particular ritual to determine who is going to die, basically the casting of the bone this is where a spirit leader or elder has a sacred bone to determine who is going to die, what is found is the person that gets the "bone" dies but not because of a predicted supernatural affect but because his brain patterns kill him. He thinks about it so much that the brain simulates frequencies which it would normally experience during the death of the individual and inturn the person dies.
Obviously particular brain patterns and frequencies can in turn communicate with other brains of other people sort of like a network, if this is achieved the signal becomes stronger and affects more brains and spreads, such can be seen through for example when people pray and for example they pray for a person to get better, lets say from cancer the cancerous cells are obviously still linked by neurones therefore a terminating frequency is sent from the brain (tell the cell to die) then the cell destroys itself and therefore the person gets cured from cancer.
The problem why this probably doesn't work most of the time is that it's not necessarily that the brain signals from the people are able to interact with the brain of the patient and to a majority of the time it doesn't work and the person therefore still has cancer, this could be an explanation to some of the miracles that occur in our world also the person with cancer could make him self believe that he doesn't have the cancer and it could inturn generate the same terminating frequency which could kill off the cancer once again this would have it's problems and would generally depend on the will power of the person because saying it is not enough you must truly believe it as a fact. That is why usually people that don't know about a disease they have tend to live normal lives until they hear about it or learn about it. That is how you can bypass lie detector machines if you convince and believe in what you have done is truly true then no other frequencies will be picked up on the lie detector. but you do have to look at it at a more complex level such as energy.
If you have ever done physics or chemistry you would know that energy is the component of pretty much everything in our world, so it's not wrong to assume that energy can be channelled in some way. And the energy would probably have many different types but i guess it would have a great influence on alot of things for example why for example your tastes are different from other people, yes i know genetics are an influence but what if you look into the genome then the individual histone molecules and then the nucleotide bases how is it that these molecules consisiting of hydrogens and nitorgens bonded by a phosphodiester bond and onto a sugar are actually storing the information, how does the genome store that your eye colour is going to be blue when you are born? there has to be another level to it, the atomic level is abviously not enough.
How is your personality determined, events in your life, or how your react to those events in your life. It's not the events that determine you, it's your reaction to those events.
basically the brain is much to complex to understand at the moment, there has to be some other underlying factor about it that determine who you are what happens around you is probably due to the fact of how much attention you pay to it, which in turn will affect what sort of frequencies are sent to other brains around you, and will in turn will affect what sort of energy is converted. But it is the brain which determines everything around you at a more complex level than just consciousness.
I guess this is my opinion or belief but yeh the video focuses way to much on trivial things such as money and possessions.
p.s sorry for such a long post

The universe tends to go towards disorder. It does go towards disorder (entropy and 3rd law of thermodynamics)
The universe is not a being and therefore cannot rather do things as it does not have a mind, although apart from those grammatical issues I agree entirely
look as a physics student, i can tell you now that thinking about something does not make it happen. it has been stated time and time again that men spend all day thinking about sex. if your theory had any substance behind it, i would have sex at LEAST 10 times a day.
what happens when two people who coexist near each other spend all day thinking about mutally exclusive events? does the world explode?
Mozzer is right it just changes your perception. Example: A while ago i started to take an interest in exotic cars, since then i seem to see them around everywhere. Have people gone "Hey, Richo cares about nice cars, i should probably drive mine around near him."?
NO! Because I interested, i take more notice in those cars and they stand out in my world.
I think you have misinterpreted the video tremendously, and would advise discussing this with your physics teacher to clarify it before you mislead any more people.
I'm not arguing…and even though I think that 90% of the secret is a change in your perception I also think that a large portion of the secret is how it changes your actions in relation to your response. That is, the more I believe something will happen the more I'm going to make it happen.
For the sex thing…if you truly believe that being smooth will get you into be with women then you're more likely to try to be smooth to get with the ladies, and more likely to pick some up(albeit slutty ones mostly).
If I truly believe that I can win the lottery then I'll go out and play the lottery, thereby increasing my chances of winning. If I truly believe that studying for my math test tomorrow will get me an A then I'll do the studying it takes to get an A.
Whereas, if I believe I'm just going to fail when I talk to women, then I won't talk to them. If I believe I won't win the lottery I won't play it, and never be able to win(I don't play the lottery BTW, it's for people who can't do math). If I believe that studying for the test won't help me then I won't bother studying.
I don't remember who said it, but I remember he said, "If you truly believe you will succeed, you just might, but if you truly believe you are going to fail, you definitely will." Or something like that…I don't remember the exact qoute, but I think it sums up the secret pretty well. Good job, and good topic I think.

w00tsauce lol :D
I don't know how this thread is still being posted on after the firsts of mozzer's many valuable posts.
I suggest you all google the terms mozzer uses so you can make sense of his clear, valid and intellectual posts to save you from being stripped of your dignity.
Prime example/s:
i.) Someone you loved dies. Suddenly, everything in the media relates to death.
ii.) You attend a marriage. Suddenly, everything in the media relates to love and marriage
iii.) Your low on money. Suddenly everything in the media is related to financial benefits and difficulties.
And this doesn't just happen when you have an experience with it. It is always happening. You just don't recognize it because it hasn't directly effected you. But when it does, your awareness of it raises. You become more aware of death/love/money and therefore are more likely to notice and pay attention to it when reading/watching/listening to such topics in the media.
Thanks.
