A few years ago when The Secret ‘went viral’ (before anyone really knew what ‘going viral’ was) lots of spiritual practitioners got really annoyed and produced lots of blogs, articles and radio shows declaring things like a) We’ve known this all along, how come that Rhonda woman gets to be so famous? and b) The Secret doesn’t work and I’ll tell you why (if you buy my 10 week package and pay $1000, read the fine print etc). Well, forget $1000 – the reason the Law of Attraction put forward in The Secret “didn’t work” and left lots of people with unsatisfied pie-in-the-sky visions is because it forgot to mention a VITAL basic ingredient: pro-activeness.
