and it sounds like rubbish. the whole premise is that you will get what you want if you visualize it. one of the criticisms i heard was that far too much of it was focused on the accumulation of goods.
and there is so much about the human body and how it heals that we don't yet understand that the claim about mirable man is specious at best.
i don't think there is much of a secret here - just another book telling people that they can all be millionairs and have whatever they want. well they can't, unfortunately.
this is the author's advice for those wanting to lose weight:
...avoid looking at fat people. Based on what she calls the "law of attraction - "that thoughts, good or bad, "attract" more of whatever they're about — she writes: "If you see people who are overweight, do not observe them, but immediately switch your mind to the picture of you in your perfect body and feel it."
sounds like a much better option that eating healthy and dieting.
the real secret is finding the next best-selling self-help book that people will suck up. if i ever find that secret, i'm giving everyone on QL a discount!!!
