I consider myself to be one of the wealthiest people around simply because I'm happy with where my life is at. I'm not a material person because I believe that the secret has merit, I'm a happy person and have become happier since reading it.

AMEN!!!

Well I came to respond to the criticism as well but DonMike said it perfectly. I've always liked DonMike and thought very highly of him. Good posts!

I do have to share this one little anecdotal joke though.

This very spiritual guy got caught in a flood one day and the water was so high
that he had to sit up in a tree hoping the water would cease.

Before he knew it this other guy came along in a boat and offered him a seat.

He said "no thanks I'm waiting for god to help me. I know god won't let me down."

So this happened 2 more times with 2 more boats then the water became to high the poor guy drowned.

So he got to heaven and asked god why he didn't help him.

God says "I sent you three boats! what more did you want?"

The only criticism the secret deserves is the fact that it's not giving the complete picture.
Thinking positive is only one step. Taking action is another.

Like the Legacy pointed out the secret is only using one principle out of 7.
