"The summary of the book:
• Chapter 1 (The Secret Revealed)
- The Great Secret of Life is the law of attraction that says like attracts like, so when you think a thought, you are also attracting like thoughts to you.
- You are a human transmission tower, transmitting a frequency with your thoughts. If you want to change anything in your life, change the frequency by changing your thoughts.
- Your current thoughts are creating your future life. What you think about the most or focus the most will appear as your life.
• Chapter 2 (The Secret Made Simple)
- The law of attraction is a law of nature. It is as impartial as the law of gravity.
- Nothing can come into your experience unless you summon it through persistent thoughts.
• Chapter 3 (How to Use The Secret)
- To lose weight, don’t focus on “losing weight.” Instead, focus on your perfect weight. Feel the feelings of your perfect weight, and you will summon it to you.
• Chapter 4 (Powerful Processes)
- Visualization is the process of creating pictures in your mind of yourself enjoying what you want. When you visualize, you generate powerful thoughts and feelings of having it now. The law of attraction then returns that reality to you, just as you saw it in your mind.
• Chapter 5 (The Secret to Money)
- To attract money, focus on wealth. It is impossible to bring more money into life when you focus on the lack of it.
- Give money in order to bring more of it into your life. When you are generous with money and feel good about sharing it, you are saying, “I have plenty.”
• Chapter 6 (The Secret to Relationships)
- Treat yourself with love and respect, and you will attract people who show you love and respect
- To make a relationship work, focus on what you appreciate about the other person, and not your complaints. When you focus on the strengths, you will get more of them.
• Chapter 7 (The Secret to Health)
- Laughter attracts joy, releases negativity, and leads to miraculous cures.
- Do not listen to society’s messages about diseases and aging. Negative message do not serve you.
• Chapter 8 (The Secret to the World)
- You cannot help the world by focusing on the negative things. As you focus on the world’s negative events, you not only add to them, but you also bring more negative things into your own life.
- Instead of focusing on the world’s problems, give your attraction and energy to trust, love, abundance, education, and peace.
• Chapter 9 (The Secret to You)
- Everything is energy. You are an energy magnet, so you electrically energize everything to you and electrically energize yourself to serve everything you want.
- Your power is in your thoughts, so stay aware. In other words, “Remember to remember.”
• Chapter 10 (The Secret to Life)
- The only thing you need to do is feel good now.
- Now that you have learned the knowledge of The Secret, what you do with it is up to you. Whatever you choose is right. The power is all yours.

"There is no such thing as a hopeless situation. Every single circumstances of your life can change! "
— Rhonda Byrne (The Secret)

"Sometimes your afraid to let go of someone because you can't imagine him being with someone else. And yes, it sounds selfish, but thats how our minds work. What's the point of looking for someone new when you know hes everything to you. You know what I want? To be able to wake up and tell myself, "Hey I'm okay. I'll be alright." Being in love isn't what makes me smile, It's who I'm in love with that does. I know exactly how that is. To love somebody who doesn't deserve it. Because they're all you have, because some attention is better than no attention at all. You make me sick. I want you and I'm hating it. One smile from him makes my five am wake up, cold shower, nothing to wear, no hairspray left, missed the bus, late for class whole day worth while. And there she goes again with her head in the clouds, ignoring the drama and chasing her dreams because to her reality is a stranger.
