I have read many self-help books from "Think and Grow Rich", Anthony Robbin's books, Dyers books on Manifesting Your Destiny, "The Science of Getting Rich", etc. Name it, I have it.
Yesterday I watched the video clip, "The Secret". Through the sharing by the various speakers and the testimonial, something just clicked in my mind. I finally understood the message.
Whatever you focus, you get. Your thoughts becomes your reality. If you think about your fears and insecurity, you get more of that. If you try to find a scam in a project or a fault in somebody, you will find it.
The universe is your genie. What you wish, is their command.
In your moment of decision, the universe will draw the resources to you.
For e.g. if you want to get a red Ferrari, suddenly you begin to be observant about red Ferrari on the roads. Your mind begins to pick them up like a laser.
Now I start each day with a prayer of gratitude for whatever I have, the senses I have to experience the fullness of life.
I begin to listen to the small voice inside me. And it tells me what to do.

Are you Immuned to the Sight of Poverty?
Carl Lewis, one of the greatest athletics of all times, recalled a trip he'll never forget.
"I went to India in 20004...I saw the Taj Mahal and it was beautiful. But there was also much poverty and homelessness.
I saw two young girls huddling on thekerb near my hotel and I asked the hotel manager about it. He replied that it was normal and they'd all got used to it.
That kind of suffering is not something we should get used to; we ought to be affected by it.
Squatter blocks were literally just next to million-dollar houses and nobody helped the poor."

Negotiation Lesson from a Mum
Anita Roddick, founder of The Body Shop, once joked that any mother who has dealt with two kids and one piece of toffee could negotiate any contract.
The trick, according to another high-powered mom, is to let one child divide the sweet and the other to pick the first piece.
