Just how important IS visualisation?
If you want to achieve something, you had better work for it, visualize success and everything you will need to get where you want to go. This visualization is called 'The Secret'.
But will visualization get you everything you want?

The Truth in The Secret
- It is true that success usually comes to people who know what they want and are willing to do what is necessary to get it
- Gratitude really helps you become a better, happier person.
- It is true that emotion and health are related. If you are depressed, you are also likely to develop physical problems.
- I use visualization myself as a tool to make it very clear to myself what I'm working towards
- If you want to change your life, it will help to visualize the way you want things to be, instead of only focusing on what is wrong now.
- If you want something, do not pass opportunities by. This ought to be obvious, really - but it is part of 'the secret'
- Reminding yourself of what you want, through affirmations and even notes posted around the house is a good way to stay focused.

What is NOT true in The Secret
- Success comes to people who aren't only determined, but also lucky, talented and hard working. The Secret only addresses determined and hard working.
- Illness may be linked to emotion, but it is going too far to say that therefor those who are ill brought this on themselves. Some illnesses like cancer are actually known to bring depression along with them. In that case it is going to be very hard to 'just think positively'.
- Emotion is linked to the body as much as the body is linked to emotion. An unhealthy body will often bring on negative emotion.
- Blaming the sick, the poor and the needy for their condition is like kicking someone when they are down. Helping them get up is a more appropriate response.
- The Secret often sounds like a ticket towards wealth - but that is bull. We can't all be wealthy - for one thing: there aren't enough resources on this poor earth.
- If you want to change your life, dreaming about how you want things to be isn't going to help. You need to focus on what's wrong now and fix it. Usually it will be ONE STEP AT A TIME.
- Wealth is not the only way to get happy and fulfilled.

The secret is true. Though it is also common sense. What you focus on is what you will get. Good that the Secret reminds us of that, and when we purposeful bring it into practice, we can benefit even more of this law and become even happier!

charkamman says:
not sure yet.. I want it to be true because it give me the power to vreate my own happiness and abundance! In practice though, it is not as easy as it seems... so... hmmmm somewhere in the middle I suppose. Believing in it on the other hand has brought me to unsuspected places in myself. The journey has been worth it!

No way, the Secret is not true
victoria_neely says:
I like the way you present your arguments. I think there are powerful elements of truth in "The Secret," and it may very well be inspiring people to better their lives. I also think there's some hogwash thrown in for good measure.

Sometimes I feel 'The Secret' is just a way of institutionalizing denial. I mean common: getting rid of debt by not thinking about it?
