Reading the book will revealed to you the secret of living the live of your dreams.

So what is the secret? The secret is the LAW OF ATTRACTION.

What is the LAW OF ATTRACTION? The law of attraction is a law of the universe.

The premise and fundamentals of the law of attraction:

- We create our lives through our thoughts.

- We attract every person, circumstance and experience into our lives by the essence of our thoughts and feelings.

- The law of attraction doesn't biased to the thoughts you have, whether the thoughts you have are good or bad, remembering the past or thinking for the future, it is giving you more of the same according to your thoughts and feelings.

For instance, to be more specific, if you want to be rich, you want to attract a life of affluence and abundance, you must embrace a wealthy mindset. You must think and feel like a millionaire, your self-talk is to be like this:

"I can afford anything I want."

"Opportunities are everywhere for me."

"Money is there for everyone."

If you want to be healthy, you must embrace the healthy and well-being mindset.

If you want your lover, spouse, families, friends and colleagues to be loving and caring towards you, you must embrace a loving and caring mindset.

In the book, there are principles on how to use and apply the law of attraction being taught.

(1) The 3 Steps Process:

Step 1: Ask

Ask for what you want. Make it absolutely clear about what is it that you are wanting.

Step2: Believe

After your asking, you have to believe that what you have asked is on the way coming to you. You must have faith, have unwavering faith that what you asked for will be fulfilled.

Step 3: Receive

You must be ready to receive what you have asked. You will have an inspired thought when what you asked for came its way to you, all you have to do is to take the inspired action in order to receive it.

(2) Visualization

Visualization is the process that we make it a vivid picture of the things that we want in our mind.

There are some guidelines about the process of visualization.

- While visualizing, we must not ONLY think about it, but also FEEL it. For example, you're visualizing that you are living in your dreamhouse, feel the cosiness of your couch, feel the fresh air the garden of your dreamhouse. While you are visualizing that you are driving the car of your dream, feel the excitement behind the wheels, feel the speed!

- In visualization, you yourself is to be in the picture, you are doing the things that you are visualizing, not you seeing yourself in the picture. Put it this way, you visualize that you are driving your dreamcar, your have to visualize that you are sitting there in the driver seat, hands of the steering wheel, step on the accelerator and feel the breeze of driving, seeing the scenery along the road you are passing by.

- This is why visiting the showhouse and test driving the cars may be of great help, is it because you can get the feel of how is it like to be living in the house and driving the cars.

(3) Gratitude
To allow more of the things that we want to be in our lives, we must be first grateful for what we have right now. Well, you may say that the life you are living right now is just not the life you always want to live, how can you be grateful? The truth is, you receive good things into your life only when you are grateful. We can actually look for the things to be grateful for, you may realise that the things that you can be grateful for are actually endless. Like, the internet access you are right now using, the LCD screen you are viewing right now, and many more. Make a list of things that you are grateful for, and express your devout gratitude towards them, and watch your life transform.

Here I would like to quote Dr Joe Vitale, "I'm completely satisfied, I just want more."
While being grateful for the things we have, we are looking for constant enhancement, as the writer of "The Science of Getting Rich", Wallace D. Wattles says that constant improvement, advancement and enhancement is the inalienable rights for every living beings.

My friends, get a copy of "The Secret", reading this book will transform your life. By the way, there is also a movie version of "The Secret", if you are more into watching movie, you can choose to watch the movie.

I wish you happiness, health and wealth.
