Product Description:
Amazon.com:
Not really a movie or documentary, The Secret is more of a video seminar, a presentation featuring a series of authors, philosophers, doctors, quantum physicists, entrepreneurs, and spiritual practitioners expounding on the powers of The Secret (probably the most well-known of the presenters is Jack Canfield, author of Chicken Soup for the Soul and The Success Principles). What is The Secret, exactly? "That principle can be summed up in three simple words: thoughts become things," proclaims writer Mike Dooley, author of Notes from the Universe. Put it another way, it’s The Power of Positive Thinking and how it can be applied to attracting more money, better health, and relationships; in short, happiness. (There is a rundown of topics on the DVD Chapters menu).
Most of the material here is given in a straightforward manner, with the presenters simply talking into the camera to address the audience directly, which is good because it avoids the trap of pretense. On the other hand, the quick edits between presenters (would it hurt to let them say more than one sentence at a time?) don't help because it reduces many of their points to palatable sound bites and aphorisms. To many viewers, this may make the program come across as a series of nice ideas not rooted in reality. Plus it's somewhat spurious to claim that The Secret was well understood and practiced by specific individuals like Plato or Shakespeare (it's well known that some of the historical figures noted didn't exactly live happy or even prosperous lives, despite their achievements). But still, the primary message is one of positivity and hope for everyone. So what to make of it? In the end, programs like this generally find an audience that is open to the message, and many will probably find it to be a source of inspiration. Others will approach it with a good deal of skepticism or dismiss it as another way of marketing happiness the masses. It simply won’t resonate with everyone, but if it resonates with you, you're likely to enjoy it and get a lot out of it. Those looking for more on The Secret might want to check out the companion book by Rhonda Byrne. --Daniel Vancini

This is a very mind-bending program. In a nutshell, it preaches "Thoughts become things". I have personally used these concepts at one time or another in my lifetime-- so I know that they DO work. I wonder how much one can change his own world if his thoughts are structured with the discipline that this program teaches? It is mind-boggling. Scotty/Sioux City

I have read self help and prosperity books for forty-five years. "Think and Grow Rich", "The Richest Man in Babylon","See You at The Top", "The Science of Getting Rich","Psycho Cybernetics","The Power of Positive Thinking", "The Seth Material", "The Peter Principle",Tibetan Book of the Dead, and several books by L. Ron Hubbard which didn't impress me enough to recall their titles.
In all of these titles, I found a nugget or gem of truth, but because I could only appreciate them intellectually and compare each with other works of a similar nature, I never got beyond a "reviewer's perspective". I could argue the merits and demerits of each volume. Yet, my life was not better for my intellectual appreciation.
Then one day, out of nowhere, steped a little Australian blond named Rhonda Byrne who opened her hand to reveal an encrusted ancient key saying, "Were you missing this, mate?" Tears welled in my eyes because I was missing that key!
What's the key? I suppose I could say the key is revealed in the work entitled "The Secret"; get a copy. But I won't do that because you might be like me and desperately need this information. Get this now! The key to "The Secret" IS DOING IT AND LIVING IT!
Keep the Gratitude Diary every day. Meditate. Take time out to just go out and walk and breathe deeply. Don't appreciate this secret intellectually by comparing it to other tomes and self help works. LIVE THE SECRET.

I watched this movie in class and decided i wanted my own copy. I had a hard time finding it in stores around town, so i looked on line. Amazon was by far a lot cheaper than it would have cost in the store. I think Best Buy was selling it for $15 or $20. I got it on Amazon for about $5. Good buy, good DVD, will get you to keep thinking postivite. And you will start to believe in the Law of Attraction!

I ordered 5 DVDs from this company. When I received them after 4 or 5 days, one of them was a bad disc. I emailed the company about this problem and was informed that I would be receiving a new DVD in the mail soon. It arrived within three days. I give this company 5 stars for reliability and promp service.

Good Video. It does not go into enough detail and then to find out that they cheated Esther and Jerry Hicks out of the film, when they were the major source of information that was left out.
