The Secret?

no such thing...the only secret is the publisher get rich
and you waste $20 or $30 on the book.

so that the whole secret.
 
But the ultimate must be -- a Db9.
I agree and if someone can point me to one in WA to stare at, I will modify the plans.

A Director of Great Southern drives one and can be seen on Parliament Pl frequently, unfortunately he decided to get the convertible one and hence (obviously) isn't suitable.

Alternatively is writing it on a piece of paper and putting it in the bottom draw a suitable substitute? Can someone with more experience in this advise? Will the same thing work with my One Tel and Sons of Gwalia shares? :D
 
Thanks Trade_It, glad you liked the reply.

I could give you the examples, but I'm not going to. As megla said, you have to try it yourself to know if it works and even though the principles are pretty simple and it sounds really easy - it actually isn't!

So if a cancer patient,tries and fails, that is he or she dies,what the secret is saying or you are saying is that she or he didn`t apply the principle properly.HMMM

This is the views of a cancer specialist who thought that the secret was actually a pretty mean scam.
 
pretty mean scam.

I never bought the stuff so they didn't get rich from me. Neither did 30 odd other people I know that just hmmm... 'lent' their copies.

It involves a bit of faith, which is suckie to me because all religions require faith and I disagree with that. But there is scientific evidence to support it.

In regards to the cancer issue, or any medical condition, ask yourself this - why do they do double blind placebo tests if the mind wasnt in such good control ?? And then in every medical report I've ever read, they always say that more research needs to be done to prove that the placebo effect wasn't skewing results.

If you don't believe it then that's fine, it wont affect me either way and I will still be happy :)

enough of my rant, said at the begining I'm not a fanatic...

If someone has cancer and was going to try this you would think they would be doing it ON TOP of everything else they could possibly do to get well, wouldn't you? I can't see how that would be a bad thing.

AND THEN YOU SAID,(not shouting using capitals as a heading)

But if they die,according to you it would be because they haven`t applied the principle properly.Because it isn`t as easy as it sounds.

This secret is no secret at all,it has to do with hard work and positive thinking,but not everything is achievable and not everyone is infallible.

I see the point that you are making but don't necessarily agree with it. One thing is for sure and that is that you and I don't know what is going on inside other people's heads and, believe it or not, for some people cancer is actually a way out of a life they don't like any more, so the principle may actually be working for them - unpalatable as the outcome may seem. Also, isn't it better to try something which is positive which may not work, than to do the alternative, which is to be negative? We're only talking about thoughts here.

Pretty much agree with that, except that the hard work with this is more of a mental nature.
 
Startrader,you`ve attributed this bit of your post to me,either I`m missing something or it`s a sloppy bit of quoting.

I did not say this.
 
The Secret is... Be positive, think positive and positive things will happen to you because your subconscious mind steers you in that direction... It's about utilizing your subconscious mind in powerful and useful ways... very few people understand and believe that the subconscious works... here are a couple examples... have you ever looked at anything in hindsight where you are suddenly struck by a thought or solution, Have you ever slept on a decision and then woke up with the solution... well that's your subconscious mind working...

I know mine is pretty good like this and it maybe the answer to why we consciously only use 10% of our brains... it's probably because our subconscious is 90%

Just an opinion of mine... maybe I should write a book and call it "The Answer".

Visual,

Sorry Visual, I completely stuffed that up. That was my quote. I was responding to your sentence but typed it in the wrong spot! I meant to say it in response to your quote: "But if they die, according to you it would be because they have not applied the principle properly. Because it isn't as easy as it sounds." My comment was: I see the point that you are making but don't necessarily agree with it. One thing is for sure and that is that you and I don't know what is going on inside other people's heads and, believe it or not, for some people cancer is actually a way out of a life they don't like any more, so the principle may actually be working for them - unpalatable as the outcome may seem.

Anyway, I think that insider sums the whole thing up really well.

I have to disagree unfortunately Insider. I think the above approach is outside of reality and ultimately ends in disaster. Or, just a pretend life. Which to me, is disaster.

Perhaps thinking objectively and seeing reality might be the first step in being able to see the 'truth' which ultimately ends in good decision making and leading to a real and full life.

This is quite a bit different from just seeing the sunny side of things, which has quite a few downfalls, not least of which might be to only learn from half of all phenomina. Yin Yang, an all that blah blah.....

4.45pm, Tuesday. Going well. First full day. Not good enough to keep me out of an internet cafe, unfortunately. :eek: Will be a few weeks before I´m set up in our own apartment I think. Before then, cafe´s and bars. Need to find wifi outlet, where I can just sit with the laptop, but not to be found yet. Perhaps I should be having a holiday anyway? :rolleyes:

Good stuff.
You should catch some copa america games in venezuela while you are there.
Not sure if soccer is your thing, but Argentina play a beautiful style.

Do you still hold stocks while you are overseas?
I tend to sell everything when i go. Less stress if theres a correction/crash.

But i guess it depends on where your going, nature of the holiday, if you will have ready internet access, duration of trip, etc...

So for you the market is open from 7pm to 1am :eek:

Or, have I misunderstood your point? Perhaps you mean that if you completely understand the negatives, then that is the positive? That is being positive about everything which ultimately assists you in making life happen for the better. Perhaps....
 
Do you still hold stocks while you are overseas?
Yep, holding long termers for the minute. Will be back short term trading as well once I have a home. This is a 2-3 year gig.

You're really really close... Going back to the subconscious mind and about it throwing answers at you, you have to take the 'Negative' and turn it into a question... Let's just say I got rejected by a chick at a bar because I get nervous about rejection, not uncommon. I get nervous and the game is over because I telegraphed I have a keen interest in her (girls don't like this unless you're Brad Pitt). I can either walk away, think I'm an idiot and give up (like most guys do) or I can say How questions. As in how can I can I turn this experience into a positive so that I can improve next time? I've done this one before and my solution was 'welcome rejection'. It affects me less and makes me more successful...

Wow you're in Peru! you really are a Traveling Trader... If you can go past the CTS site and check on the drilling for us that would be some invaluable information for the CTS thread... (just kidding)

Do you mean you're overseas for 2 - 3years or you're getting a house in 2-3 years... that's awesome
