belief leads to action.
which leads to results.
its no secret; negativity will get you nowhere.

This is very true. But you can't make a moviementary out of this.THE_ADDMAN said:belief leads to action.

I hear ya man. if they made it as simple as I said it, it wouldnt sell.Call_Me_Daddy said:This is very true. But you can't make a moviementary out of this.
You need to mix it with some new age hippie crap to fill in the gaps.
That's the underlying message you just wrote.
I'd challenge that notion. Consider the AFCs in this forum, they have many beliefs however actions aren't always a result, just more frustration.THE_ADDMAN said:belief leads to action....

Agreed. I dont understand why so many people think that's what the secret is about. They all say you have to take action.I like to read between the lines and not take everything so literally. Like: the universe will give you what you want if you want it enough... you don't have to do anything.
That's complete bull
All I have to go by is the tv commercial I saw, but based upon that it looked like a bunch of "place your fate in hopes hands" BS.A-Unit said:I applaud the differing perspective offered by Deep Dish, but it's only the other side of the coin. It's but one perspective, one source. I never drank from the Koolaid of the Secret, nor did I think it would get this large. I do believe it helped really boil down what alot of scholars who have been writing for over 100 years would say for guys who might not have gotten it or would even bother to take alot at. And more shocking are guys like STR8Up who have changed their reality, but naysay against even the slightest statements mentioned in the Secret. Other guys can attest to changing realities, and there are plenty of guys who've gone from geek to god, perhaps in their own mind, who have finally met women they like, jobs they want, friends they like, situations they like, etc, to refute the fact that we create reality. Do we not?
Then you HAVE to do whatever it takes to achieve. And that usually weans hard work towards your goal in order to reap the great reward.Holland said:"In order to GET something, you must first BE something."
Agreed. The guy made no difference. That's why you don't take advice from skeptics. You can take advice from realisic people because they're normal.. but skeptics are negative little sh*ts that do nothing but judge and complain.Oow, and with did mr. who-gives-a-fuuck-what-his-name-whas from Skeptic magazine do?
Exactly, only waste peoples time.
Learn from the people who get RESULTS, instead of the people who argue.
Wealth acquisition is absolutely a mindset. It is a mindset in that you must have the capacity to think differently than the average person.A-Unit said:The conclusion here is...it's not a belief of their's if they're not acting upon it. Maybe it's a hope, or a passing thought, but certainly not a belief. Moreover, EVERYTHING any guy posts here is based upon installing the beliefs of SUCCESSFUL dj's/pua's. STR8UP wrote a guide on wealth. If he's not living it, and basing in on wealth, how can he possibly claim to have any tangible networth outside of what he writes? Anybody who's examined wealth, possessed it, or come from it, KNOWS it's a mindset. That's why anybody who's gone to RK books, gotten upset b/c he doesn't give the HOW TO, inevitably finds John T Reed and claims RK is a sham. MINDSET.
I have gotten plenty of pm's from guys wanting to learn this stuff. It's pretty easy to tell which ones are looking for a magic pill and which ones are willing to put forth the effort.Does STR8UP get pm's on guys who want to learn REI, hoping to ATTRACT the same things in life through some PLAN based on faith and belief?

Ever notice that people in poorer countries and less advanced civilizations tend to be very superstitious?Deep Dish said:I suspect it comes down to a lacking sense of control. Michael Shermer's book Why People Believe Weird Things demonstrates that people who hold superstitious beliefs or conspiratorial thoughts tend to have an external locus of control, which is to say they feel life happens to them rather than by their actively leading their life. Whereas, people who have an internal locus of control in their life tend to be freer of superstitions. Surely, of course, we're talking a regression of tendencies rather than absolutes.
That's not what the Secret is about.Lets be clear about this. I am in no way, shape, or form against positive thoughts and affirmations and the like. I would even go so far as to say that they are beneficial to achieving one's goals. the problem comes when you try to lead people to believe that thoughts can replace actions.
Good morning, this ain't Vietnam, still
people lose hands, legs, arms for real
Little was known of Sierra Leone,
and how it connects to the diamonds we own
When I speak of diamonds in this song,
I ain't talking bout the ones that be glowin’,
I'm talking bout Rocafella, my home,
my chain, these ain't conflict diamonds, is they Jacob?
Don't lie to me man
See a part of me saying keep shining, how?
When I know of the blood diamonds,
Though it's thousands of miles away,
Sierra Leone connect to what we go through today
Over here it's a drug trade, we die from drugs
Over there, they die from what we buy from drugs
The diamonds, the chains, the bracelets the charms’s
I thought my Jesus piece was so harmless
till I seen a picture of a shorty armless
and here's the conflict - it's in a black person soul to rock that gold
Spend ya whole life trying to get that ice
On that polo rugby it look so nice,
how could something so wrong make me feel so right, right?
Before I beat myself up like Ike
You can still throw ya Rocafella diamond tonight
because...
Diamonds are forever
Jay-Z:
Yup! I got it from here 'Ye (yay), damn.
The chain remains, the gang is intact
The name is mine, I'll take blame for that
The pressures on, but guess who ain't gon' crack?
*Ha Ha* Pardon me, I had to laugh at that
How could you falter?
When you're the Roc of Gibraltar
I had to get off the boat so I could walk on water
This ain't no tall order, this is nothing to me
Difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week
I do this in my sleep, I sold kilo's of coke
(So) I'm guessing I can sell CD's
I'm not a businessman,
I'm a business, man!
Let me handle my business, damn
Kanye, he got me,
Freeway and Foxy,
YGz, Teira Marie, Peedi watch me
Bleek could be one hit away ya whole career
As long as I'm alive, he's a millionaire
And even if I die, he's in my will somewhere
So he can just kick back and chill some where, oh yeah
He won't even have to write rhymes,
The dynasty, like my money last three lifetimes
Shirley Bassey's in the rear saying exactly what I been saying practically my whole career
The diamond is forever, I been mining this forever
Now the Louis Vuitton Don's timing couldn't be better
People lined up to see the Titanic sinking
stead we rose from the ash like a phoenix
If ya waiting for the end of the dynasty sign
It would seem like forever is a mighty long time!
Do not be too easy. If you are too easy to get, she will not want you. If you are too easy to keep, she will lose interest in you. If you are too easy to control, she will not respect you.
