The key to using The Secret' is to know how to use it. As with anything it is important to research and find out if this is something that is right for you. The fact is that The Secret' is based on faith. The question here should then be "Do you have the Faith it takes to Apply the Secret to your life?"
In order for "The Secret" to properly work in ones life they must fully understand that it is based on The Law of Attraction which is a concept based on Energy and the way that energy works. The Law of Attraction basically says that like attracts like.
Throughout life we have been told that Karma is what we send out and it will come back to us, and the Golden Rule tells us to "do unto others as we would have them do to us." Science says if you have one type of energy it will draw to it that kind of energy; positive to positive and negative to negative.
It therefore makes sense that "The Secret" would work the same way. Take a smile for example; if you smile at someone they will more than likely smile back but if you shoot them a dirty look they will likely return the favor.

It is a book called "The Master Key System" by Charles Haanel. This book is a guide to using the Law of Attraction.
In this book the author guides you through the steps of more positive thinking one step at a time. It takes commitment and a little work but it is possible to make your dreams come true. It does not in anyway indicate that some magical force is going to provide you the things you want. The "Genie" will not actually appear, but with applied effort one can achieve phenomenal results. Not everything is meant to be ours and some things that we think at one moment we want we later find aren't really what we wanted or needed after all.
In faith you believe no matter what, it is only in doubt that you can fail. The thing about doubt is that once you allow it into your life you have given it power and once
