It's a documentary about the Law of Attraction. For anyone who doesn't know what that law is, here is the definition:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w...Attraction

Basically, you get what you think about, whether it's positive or negative. Your thoughts can manifest in reality.

Do you believe?

I haven't seen it.
I believe in it in the sense that you mostly get out of the world what you put into it. If you believe you can do something, you probably can. It's mostly about drive and ambition and a little bit of luck. I think thinking positively about things helps you see the right opportunities as they arrive. But there are always things beyond our control. How you react to that is what's important.
I do not believe it's some kind of cosmic force, that, for example, you visualize yourself getting the closest parking space somewhere and it materilaizes out of nowhere. If there happens to be a close parking space, it's merely coincidence.

Oohh, Carrie, watch it if you can. It made me feel great, but it made my hubby feel horrible.

I'm gonna try some of the techniques just to see if it works in the slightest bit.

no i haven't seen this doc.
Yes this has been posted many times here in G.D.
Yes I think I belive it to happen, because I think many details of my life are things that I wished for as a child , teenager/young adult are the life I lead today.

oops! I rented it on Netflix a while ago, and it's been sitting on my dresser for over a month. I've just been so focused with OnDemand, there's a billion things to watch.

I've been having a really rough couple of weeks, and I decided to pop it in. Made me instantly feel better. It was weird, I tell ya!

You get what you think about huh?

well that sure has been true since thursday evening

I'll keep it in mind... coworkers have been passing the book around. It seems a little, well, not me, but I do find it interesting. Glad you had such a good reaction to it. Sometimes a little push is all we need.

You're so cute!

I have willed the winning lottery ticker into my possession, but the laws sucks, obviously. It doesn't work.

Shhh, that's negative thinking.

I saw it, it was silly.

I think there is some truth to the law of attraction,but the movie just took it too far.

Why are you mad at my opinion?

Ok, how bout this instead:

Cuz it sucks!













I love to be negative.

I bought the book and was so sorry I wasted my money. It's mainly another gimmick and all the book does is quote people who quaote the bible, just read the bible!

My mate has been raving about this forever and convinced me to watch the dvd a few months ago. After 30 minutes of bad acting - that was ENOUGH. I couldn't take it anymore. It's all common sense, really.

Oh well, I tried.

Sorry. I didn't mean it in a bad way. I know people who have watched it and LOVED it; I was just in the camp that preferred to hear about it but not watch the dvd. My mate raves about it, though.

It's ok. I'm still going to try it. It couldn't hurt, right?

I've seen it and there are aspects of it that I completely buy into and other things that I'm like....yeah right.

I haven't seen it, but I've been told it...and that's all I can say about that.

Ditto That Byron.

I saw the movie a few times. I believe it works. The thing is: we people are impatient. We want instant results. It doesn't work that way. I believe every single thought is creative in the universe. If you repeat thoughts very often it will manifest in your reality. Sooner or later. Only spiritual Masters create instantly. For students there is time to deal with.

ok this must be a sign. this is the 3rd time i've heard about or been told about this movie in 2 weeks.

definitely will be checking it out.

btw.. is this available on dvd?

Yes

Only if you believe it is.

If you grew up in a tixc situation and your family had poor beliefs about wealth and life (like mine) it makes sense to try to think in a different way.

Yes...all this is in the bible. Shoot for the stars and have unshakeable confidence in yourself and the world is yours.

Basically, go for yours, beleive, and give back...that's what its about - that's life should be n that's it.

I have a vision board in my kitchen though
