The movie, The Secret, is an introduction to the principle behind getting what you want. An overview of The Law of Attraction, presented from some very successful people. Granted, some of those people have achieved their success from promoting the principles of The Secret. But it's the basic nature of the information that so resonated with me.
The Law of Attraction is this: thoughts become things. The power of positive thinking isn't something I hadn't heard before. I've read my share of self-improvement books, listened to my share of motivational speakers. I learned that I was worthy of having what I wanted in Sunday School - God himself passed on the message "ask and you shall receive". I've been watching Oprah since she went national. Who couldn't have this background and still not get that anyone is capable of achieving anything? Well, me. Until this particular presentation, I listened and part of me still believed that those who succeed are smarter and luckier than I am. They were more charismatic, they had the "it" factor the entertainment industry is always talking about.
Using the basic premise that thoughts become things, the first step is to identify what I want. My wants are very simple: I want to see my books in the hands of readers. I want my husband to find and chase a dream. I want enough money every year to put some in the bank, keep us in new (practical) cars, and provide funding for Alzheimer's Research, my local Women's Network, Cancer Research and Feed the Children, along with any other worthy cause that comes my way. I want to provide college educations for my grandchildren. I want to buy cutting edge medical equipment for kids with disabilities.
That's the beginning, deciding what you really want.

I hope this works for you. But is eems to me you have most of what one could want. You have a job you like, wonderful grandchildren that make you feel alive and a great husband.
Kat,
Big props to you for embracing the Law of Attraction and for setting some awesome goals! You will do well with the Law of Attraction with that "can do" attitude.
I would suggest that you focus on the details of what you want - get very specific about your desires.
Two big mistakes that are often made is that people try to focus on too many things at once, and they do not focus on the specific details of their desires.
The more specific you can be, and the more you can focus on any given thing, the faster you will be inspired to take action that will bring that thing into your life.
Have fun!

Thanks Aaron!

Hi!
Have you heard the AMAZING news? Oprah is doing a SECOND show about “The Secret” this Friday, February 16th. It is UNPRECEDENTED for Oprah to repeat a topic so quickly. But as we all know… Once the Law of Attraction is set into motion… there ain’t no stopping it!
As a follow-up to this Oprah encore show, there will also be two more FREE International Law of Attraction Teleconferences. The Teleconferences were a BIG hit last week. There were people there from four different continents and 7 different time zones. The link to register for this week’s teleconferences is http://lawofattractionteleconference.com. They’re free, so why not???
I think it’s safe to say that “The Secret” is out! Let’s all keep spreading the word and see what amazing things happen next!
