After 10 years - Is the Secret true?

 

10 years ago, this book taught me that if you would sit down and imagine what you want in life, you will get it. DON'T ask how or when, it will come to you. With the wind, out of nowhere, just like that. Think of a sports car that you may not even own by working and saving your salary for 100 years, you will get it by just thinking of you will have it. Easy right?

I believe it, I was brain washed by this book. I even watched the video version of it in Youtube. I did stick a photo of a Honda Accord on my work desk. Hoping it to be true. Hoping. This is a word of being mediocre. HOPE. We hope because we don't think we will succeed but let the world takes it course and judge it. Are we worthy of that little success that is so insignificant to the world, when we rely on it to the world = HOPE.

So.... 10 years passed, what have this 'Secret' or 'HOPE' given me so far? Did i get the Accord you ask? NOPE. I did not drive an Accord that i dreamt of 10 years ago. The secret did not work. However, something else is in realization.

Thinking, believing and doing nothing will give you as what you are doing, Nothing. No one is going to just hand you the car. That only happens in crappy anime protagonist to sell to the millions of lazy slops just like them, wasting on their parent's hard earn money. What did i realized? 

The book actually made you think of your vision which many do not. We are not firm with our decision of what lunch we want, what more of our future vision? When the book says think of what you want and make it so true = be firm with your vision! Do not divert, looking at the goal and move nearer day by day. Your daily decision will all based on that goal when you are firm and you will achieve it if, IF YOU WORK HARD ON IT. The bigger your goal the harder you need to work on, fair enough right?

If your goal is to have a RM500 coffee machine, is much sooner to attain from 1mil RM cash in the bank. But the vision is important here. We don't want to have many goals but not achieving it at all when we die.

Does it work? If the book is correct and as easy as it said. We are looking at millionaires everywhere and there will be no sufferings. DO we see that after more than 10 years? I don't think so, but something we do see is more version of the book being publish with more promises. 

Me? I realized that Honda accord is not really what i want now, I prefer a Camry or a Golf GTI. People change, their taste in cars too. I also realized that having that car don't really matter, having health and wealth seems better. I changed my vision according to maturity of man-hood, the book did play a small factor on it.

Advised? read the book, watch the video. Don't believe it 100%, think critically on it. Use it to mature your thinking, because in the end that's what we have.

Great to be back after 10years of Cybernetic Gorilla blogging, miss this place.😆
