Product Description
The secret key to unlocking our full potential-from Joe Vitale, high-profile contributor to The Secret

The Key reveals the ultimate secret of attracting wealth, health, success, happiness, or anything else that we want from life. From author and self-help guru Joe Vitale, The Key builds on his bestselling book The Attractor Factor, and goes beyond the mega-hit book and movie The Secret, which features Vitale.

The Key shows how a person must first rid themselves of unconscious self-limiting beliefs if they want to reach their full potential and attain the things they say they want from life. Inside every person are "counter-intentions" that actually attract the things they don't want and prevent them from getting those things they do. The Key reveals ten proven ways to remedy the situation and end self-sabotage forever. For anyone who knows they can achieve more but doesn't know why it isn't working for them, The Key reveals the psychological and unconscious limitations that are holding them back. Like all of Joe Vitale's other bestselling books, The Key offers real, practical wisdom for anyone who wants to get more out of life.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worthless ripoff, January 22, 2008

By	Samantha Castro (Brooklyn, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As I have testified before repeatedly - this "Key" book is a worthless ripoff. Half of all pages are blank. The pages with print are nearly all half blank. Every brief page of text advertises some other Joe Vitale book. The first ten text pages (spread over more than 20 paper pages) advertise 11 books. Do you want to pay for advertising? I think not. I think you will agree with me that this book is a total ripoff and completely worthless.

1.0 out of 5 stars more of the same garbage, November 1, 2007

By	Victor Allen "thinking in Idaho" (Idaho Falls, ID United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Why does Amazon remove all negative reviews of this book. I have reviewed it four times
(always with a one star rating) and every time, my review is removed. Likewise, every other
one star rating (and there have been a lot of them) are removed. Amazon dishonesty on
open display, just like Joe Vitale's.

3.0 out of 5 stars Overcome self-sabotaging inner thoughts, October 18, 2007

By	M. L Lamendola (Merriam, KS USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I first came across Joe Vitale's material back in the late 1990s when e-commerce began to take hold on the Internet. Personally, I find his style to be a bit overblown. But that doesn't mean his stuff doesn't work. It just means Joe is very passionate about what he teaches. And for a guy who was once homeless but now is a millionaire, such passion should be expected.

For most people, this book will, if put to use, make a profound difference. Most of us are replaying negative, self-defeating internal scripts in an endless loop. This book provides insight into eliminating self-sabotaging inner dialogue and replacing that with thoughts and expectations that lead to positive results.

This book is divided into three Parts.

Part Three is basically promotional material for Vitale's other products. Normally, that's not a good thing in a book. But in this case, it seems like a natural and logical way to conclude the book because it helps the reader take the next steps.

Part One is the tutorial. Here is where Vitale explains the concepts. He goes into what they are, what problems they solve, and why they work.

Part Two is the exercises portion. It consists of 10 Chapters, each describing one of ten "clearing methods" and providing actual exercises so you can put them to use.

If you have found yourself frustrated when pursuing your goals, if you have been blindsided while struggling to make something happen (such as career advancement), or if you seem to have a streak of bad luck, this book will show you the key to changing any of those situations. That is not to say this book is for losers. It is for people who want to do better but somehow keep finding their path blocked. That's a pretty large group of people! Joe Vitale has dedicated his life to making that group much smaller.
