Quotes from: "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne

"We've got a thousand different diagnoses and diseases out there. They're just the weak link. They're all the result of one thing: stress. If you put enough stress on the chain and you put enough stress on the system, then one of the links breaks."

~Dr. Ben Johnson
Physician, Author, 7 Leader in Energy Healing




"All stress begins with one negative thought. One thought that went unchecked, and then more thoughts came and more, until stress manifested. The effect is stress, but the cause was negative thinking, and it all began with one little negative thought. No matter what you might have manifested, you can change it with one small positive thought and then another."
~Rhonda Byrne



"Happier thoughts lead to essentially a happier biochemistry. A happier, healthier body. Negative thoughts and stress have been shown to seriously degrade the body and the functioning of the brain, because it's our thoughts and emotions that are continuously reassembling, reorganizing, recreating our body."

~Dr. John Hagelin



"I always say, when the voice and the vision on the inside become more profound, clear, and loud than the opinions on the outside, you've mastered your life!"

~Dr. John Demartini

Quotes from: "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne

"Inside relationships it's important to first understand who's coming into the relationship, and not just your partner. You need to understand yourself first."
~Lisa Nichols



"Undoubtedly to some, the idea of giving so much love to self will seem very cold, hard and unmerciful. Still this matter may be seen in a different light, when we find that 'looking out for Number One,' as directed by the Infinite, is really looking out for Number Two and is indeed the only way to permanently benefit Number Two."
~Prentice Mulford


"Oftentimes you give others the opportunity to create your happiness, and many times they fail to create it the way you want it. Why? Because only one person can be in charge of your joy, of your bliss, and that's you. So even your parent, your child, your spouse - they do not have the control to create your happiness. They simply have the opportunity to share in your happiness. Your joy lies within you." 
~Lisa Nichols

Quotes from: "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne

"Knowing the law of attraction, I wanted to really put it to use and to see what would happen. In 1995 I started to create something called a Vision Board, where I take something that I want to attract, like a car or a watch or the soul mate of my dreams, and I put a picture of what I want up on this board. Every day I would sit in my office and would look up at this board and I would start to visualize. I would really get into the state of having already acquired it." 
~John Assaraf



"Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions." 
         ~Albert Einstein (1879-1955)


"The good news is that the moment you decide that what you know is more important than what you have been taught to believe, you will have shifted gears in your quest for abundance. Success comes from within, not from without."

~Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

Quotes from: "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne

"That a man can change himself . . . and master his own destiny is the conclusion of every mind who is wide-awake to the power of right thought."
  
~Christian D. Larson (1866-1954)



"All that we are is a result of what we have thought"
 ~Buddha ( 563 BCE - 483 BCE)


"Every man know that when his wife is appreciating him for the little things that he does, what does he want to do? He wants to do more. It's always about appreciation. It pulls things in. It attracts support."
 ~Dr. John Gray
Psychologist, Author, and International Speaker


"Whatever we think about and thank about we bring about."
~Dr. John Demartini


"It's the feeling that really creates the attraction, not just the picture or the thought. A lot of people think, 'If I think positive thoughts, or if I visualize having what I want, that will be enough.' But you're doing that and still not feeling abundant, or feeling loving or joyful, then it doesn't create the power of the attraction."

~Jack Canfield

Quotes from: "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne


"It's impossible to monitor every thought we have. Researchers tell us that we have about sixty thousand thoughts a day. Can you imagine how exhausted you'd feel trying to control all sixty thousand of those thoughts? Fortunately there's an easier way and it's our feelings. Our feelings let us know what we're thinking." 
~ Marci Shimoff
Author, International Speaker, and Transformational Leader



"You want to become aware of how you're feeling, and get in tune with how you're feeling, because it is the fastest way for you to know what you're thinking."


"It is the combination of thought and love which forms the irresistible force of the law of attraction." 
~Charles Haanel


"There is no greater power in the Universe than the power of love. The feeling of love is the highest frequency you can emit. If you could wrap every thought in love, if you could love everything and everyone, your life would be transformed."


"The principle which gives the thought the dynamic power to correlate with its object, and therefore to master every adverse human experience, is the law of attraction, which is another name for love. This is an eternal and fundamental principle inherent in all things, in every system of philosophy, in every Religion and in every Science. There is no getting away from the law of love. It is feeling that imparts vitality to thought. Feeling is desire and desire is love. Thought impregnated with love becomes invincible."
~Charles Haanel

Quotes from: "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne

This book has a lot of positive information but I am skeptical about their claim that:

"The greatest teachers who have ever lived have told us that the law of attraction is the most powerful law in the Universe."

It can be said that positive thinking will attract positive outcomes but just really wanting something or wishing something  doesn't make it so. With that said, enjoy the book with a skeptical eye! 


"Our job as humans is to hold on to the thoughts of what we want, make it absolutely clear in our minds what we want and from that we start to invoke one of the greatest laws in the Universe, and that's the law of attraction. You become what you think about most, but you also attract what you think about most."  
~  John Assaraf


"And that principal can be summed up in three simple words. Thoughts become things!
~Mike Dooley
Author & International Speaker

 
"The law of attraction doesn't care whether you perceive something to be good or bad, or whether you don't want it or whether you do want it. It's responding to your thoughts. So if you're looking at a mountain of debt, feeling terrible about it, that's the signal you're putting out into the Universe.'I feel really bad because of all this debt I've got.' You're just affirming it to yourself. You felt it on every level of your being. That's what you're going to get more of.
~Bob Doyle

Quote from: "Diet Myths That Keep Us Fat" by Nancy L. Snyderman, M.D.

"Losing a few pounds can make a big difference to your health. Some people think they will never lose enough weight to improve their health. Not true. For example, for every 2 pounds of excess weight you lose, your blood cholesterol drops by an average of 3 points. That's nothing to scoff at. Losing weight can help you r blood pressure, too. In one study, after losing as few as a 9 pounds, people were able to bring their high blood pressure down to normal. Some people even went off medication with their doctor's approval."
