The Secret, a 2006 movie and global bestseller, is considered the perfect blueprint for achieving your goals. It teaches three lessons:

 1) the law of attraction is one of the most prevalent principles in the world, 

2) to use the law of attraction, you must think about what you want, not what you want to avoid, and 

3) the three steps of the law of attraction are asking, believing, and receiving.

The law of attraction is a powerful principle that states that what you think and feel determines what you'll attract into your life. It has been written about as long as self-help books are a thing, with examples such as The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, The Master Key System by Charles Haneel, and even the book Rhonda Byrne found it in, The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace Wattles. However, the book is often criticized for its overemphasis on the power of the law.

Lesson 2: The law of attraction only works when you think in positives, not negatives. Jim Carrey, an aspiring actor, discussed his experience with Oprah in 1997 before she knew about The Secret. He would stop on his drive home every night, think about his future accomplishments, and visualize them. He took comfort in the fact that he “[did] have these things, I just don’t have a hold of them yet, but they’re out there.”

Rhonda says this is a prerequisite for the law of attraction to work, as he always envisioned the positives that would come into his life, rather than the negatives he was trying to avoid. Loss aversion is a powerful driving force in our internal monologue, as we are more worried about losing what we have, rather than getting what we want. This is why most of us subconsciously play not to lose, instead of playing to win. Framing something as a win sounds more convincing than fear mongering.

Lesson 3: To manifest your dreams, you must ask, believe, and then receive. Rhonda suggests an actual, three-step process you can use to make the law of attraction work for you: 1) ask, which is about being specific in what you want out of life. Vague questions get vague answers. Use a present tense structure and write down what you want from a perspective of gratitude: “I’m grateful to have [INSERT DESIRE].” 2) Believe, radiating confidence so that the people you meet along the way will support you. Don’t be blindly optimistic, but in a go-getter spirit.

Receiving, imagine how you’ll feel once you accomplish your goal. Visualize what would life be like and prime your actions in the right direction.

Although planning, being motivated, and believing in yourself are all important, the key caveat is that your actions have to back up your state of mind. As Gary Vee says, “the law of attraction only works if you do.” So think positive, prep for success, and work like a madman to get what you want.
