What is "The Secret" that many people have been talking about? If you check out the official website http://thesecret.tv, you may find it a bit creepy -- it actually reminded me of Da Vinci's Code.
The Secret is a movie created by Australian Rhonda Bryne, and she tells people that if they follow its philosophy, you can create the life you want - whether that means getting out of debt, finding a more fulfilling job, or even falling in love. Intruiging, huh? For those who prefer to read, there is also a book written by Bryne.
I may not agree to all the "secret" teachings but what struck me was how the author's life was changed because of her discovery of this "secret". "Since I discovered the Secret, every single moment of my entire life has changed, and I am living my life for the first time", Rhonda says in Oprah's show.
Here are some of the "secret" teachings on relationships taken from the website:
You can completely transform any relationship, no matter what it's like right now.
Every single relationship you have is a reflection of how you feel inside about you. You are a magnet attracting to you all things, via the signal you are emitting through your thoughts and feelings. Every relationship you have and every interaction with every person, is a reflection of your own thoughts and feelings in that very moment.
To transform every single relationship you have in your life:
Fall in love with YOU!
Make lists of hundreds and hundreds of wonderful things about you. Keep adding to it every day.
Know that you are perfect. Do not think any negative thoughts about you.
Know that you are worthy and deserving of anything and everything you could possibly want in your life.
Focus on the wonderful things in every person. Look for only those things.
Do not blame or criticize anybody, ever.
Set an intention that you are going to see the best in everything and everyone.
Make your happiness the number one thing in your life. Happiness is an inside job.
Free yourself of the responsibility of trying to make other people happy. Respect and love them enough to allow them to take care of their own happiness.
Get your attention off those things in others that don't make you feel good.
Appreciate and love yourself in every moment you can.
Do not expect others to behave in a way you want, so you will be happy. Release yourself forevermore and know that you alone control your happiness and it is a choice, no matter what anyone else is doing.
Love and respect yourself completely.
Know that you are perfect right now.
