The Key to ‘The Secret’

key-jackcanfield.jpgBy now, most people have heard of the phenomenally successful movie The Secret, which talks about the Law of Attraction and how it can be used to change lives. The Law of Attraction has been used for thousands of years by some very successful people. Jack Canfield, originator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul Series and a good friend of mine, is one of them. He appeared in The Secret to teach about the Law of Attraction, and now he has written an excellent book called Jack Canfield’s KEY to Living the Law of Attraction.

One of the reasons I really recommend this book is because it cuts to the chase and focuses on things such as clarity, purpose and action–things that are crucial to be successful in business and life.

A lot of other books I’ve run across that talk about the Law of Attraction have way too much of a “New Age” feel. For entrepreneurs like me, that just sends me running the other way.

I want straightforward, clear-cut facts and explanations, and that is exactly what you’ll find in Canfield’s new book. He tells you not only what you need to know, but what you need to do in order to attract what you want in your life. In other words, he gives you the simple steps that can help you implement the Law of Attraction, and he doesn’t fill the pages with a bunch of far-fetched fluff.

    I certainly agree with the sentiment that the “new age” type discussion tends to send people running for the door. In my experiences discussing The Secret with others, I’ve discovered that the thing that drives them away, or at least causes a significant amount of skepticism is the conversation surrounding the “mechanics” of the theory’s inner workings. Evidently, people are afraid of things that they do not understand. Unfortunately, that conversation tends to get very “new agey”, and is a very difficult concept to communicate in simple, layperson terms.

    I applaud the book if, in fact, it communicates the effectiveness of The Secret in a more accessible and practical fashion. Entrepreneurs and business people tend toward the practical, “give me the facts” side of things.

    Hello!
    As an entrepreneur, at first, i studied all about the universal laws…anything that could help me grow myself and the business.
    We started 8 months ago a language school, since there are thousands of them, we wanted to make a difference through qualified service and a atractive price. So we did…
    By now we have almost 200 students, making enough revenue for a 8 month business…the secret?!
    Yes there is one!

    Believe and achieve!

    I feel so thankful, and i give thanks to the universe every single day!

    We want to have 300 students until the end of the year!
    I`ll let you know!

    Belive and achieve!:)

    There is a massive amount of fanfare focusing on The Key to the Secret. Let me first emphasize that the “original” The Key to the Secret was written by James De Havilland. De Havillands’ message is clear and simple; “You cannot forgo the valley of knowledge and expect to reach the summit of wisdom”. The original book by De Havilland has motivated me to become a shining example and an illustrious and eminent ambassador and heralder of mankind. My life has continually progressed in a positive direction since reading and practicing his writings. His book is clearly an educational masterpiece and seems to be lost in a maze of bad books. I just wanted to set the record straight when you ask a question about The Key to the Secret.
