Anyone who has ever spent more than a few minutes with me knows that I am not the “Oprah” type. But I was intrigued by a commercial I saw on my way out the door this morning. Apparently, Oprah has a big “Secret” she wants to share with her audience today… the kind of secret that can change lives, according to Mrs. Oprah.

So I did a bit of research and found out she was talking about a movie called The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. One of the reviews said it was like What The Bleep Do We Know, but better because it lacked the “cheesy” story line and was more straight documentary style. Now, I liked What The Bleep… so I thought I would request some readers’ thoughts on “The Secret”.

Is it worth me watching? Should I take Oprah’s advice and buy the DVD? Or is it just another example of some middle-aged suburbanite woman “finding herself” and feeling obliged to share it with the world?

For those of you who don’t know, The Secret is about the intention-manifestation model, and how learning to use The Law of Attraction to your advantage can get you whatever you want. The movie claims that the law of attraction is what governs the universe, in a way. At least that is my understanding of it from reading a few reviews. Apparently, the way to succeed with intention-manifestation is to keep your thoughts focused on what you desire… or something like that.

So folks, I am going to spend the rest of the day thinking about two four-wheelers, a snowmobile, my own private ski resort, my new 25-inch biceps, and a Winter home in Hawaii.

 I’ll let you know how it works out.
