5.0 out of 5 stars BEAUTIFUL & WORTH EVERY PENNY, February 2, 2008

By	FitFan "MS" (WI) - See all my reviews

When I read other reviews, I was thinking for the money, really, I'll just get a journal. But one reviewer wrote that it was worth it for the tips she gives, the words of advice and thought provoking ideas, make it worth it. IT IS!! Not only is it a beautiful piece, very thick and hard cover, embossed in different ways and with "The Secret" logo also. It closes on the right side with very heavy magnetic attraction. The pages are a joy to write on. You will not be disappointed. I find myself using everyday which is what you need to do. It works, you will be amazed. This is worth the investment ten times over. Do yourself a favor and buy this journal.

3.0 out of 5 stars Burn After Reading, September 13, 2008

By	John P. Morgan "Light Coach" (Beautiful San Dimas, CA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I respect all of my fellow reviewers here on amazon - even if some of their views may be a little skewed - but I had "challenges" with David Hooper's review of this particular journal. To me, it really isn't the "most powerful book on gratitude". And even though he explains why it is, I just can't help but think that the most powerful book on gratitude that you will ever own is the one you create yourself.

No doubt about it. This book is beautiful. It's filled with quotes from the book, the Secret, and it's small enough to take with you anywhere you go...but I prefer the little leather bound journal I bought at Costco for $12.95. In it I not only include quotes from the book, The Secret, I also include quotes from others that I resonate with whether it be Ralph Waldo Emerson or Henry David Tyler - the man who delivers my bottled water - because I believe at our very core, each one of us is a fount of wisdom, inspiration, and beauty and Truth is so much with us, that we often forget that it is often disguised as "unlikely sources".

In short, I try and make this particular journal MY journal from start to finish. I will even include pictures from magazines that I find particularly inspiring. Most of all, I write in my own language about the Law of Attraction and the "future me" I am even now evolving into. I create "scripts" that I rehearse and practice and attempt to act out. I figure that I am acting anyway, so I might as well act what I want to be.

I have nothing against Rhonda Byrne or The Secret. I loved her movie and created a workshop around it and I formed two study groups based on her book. The challenge I have with this particular item is that in a way, it still belongs to Rhonda Byrne. She has included quotes that resonated with her. Everything is geared toward her and what she feels are "key points" in remembering and they may very well be but do you resonate...do you gravitate...do your vibrations align with the content she has included or do you vibrate with something other?

Am I making sense here?
Do you understand what I am trying to get at?

I have hundreds upon hundreds of books with various parts of the book underscored and highlighted and encircled with arrows and stars but until I put those words into my own language and make them my own, they do not belong to me. I must embody them, experiment with them, apply them, speak of them...I MUST BECOME THEM...and when I do, I will remember a part of me that always was. I am no longer attempting to make something happen, I am letting what ALREADY is, be.

That's the challenge with the Secret. People are trying to be wealthy, healthy, and successful instead of remembering that they already are WEALTH, they already are HEALTH, they already are SUCCESS and FUlFILLMENT and BEAUTY and TRUTH. But I guarantee if you start creating your own journal and embodying that which you truly desire, those desires will come forth for the simple and wonderful reason, you already are that which you desire.

Again, I'm not knocking the product. I'm not knocking the reviewers who found this useful. I'm not knocking you if you decide you're going to make this purchase. I'm just giving you a few suggestions of things you just might be remembering as true.

After reading this review, burn it from your mind...burn it from your sight...and from those ashes, just BE the information you wish to convey. Do that now with all the things that seem to give you inspiration, hope, and joy because in a very real way, the only reason why you gravitated toward this review and those books is because YOU gave them life in the first place.

Whatever you decide to do, just know that Love, Light, and Laughter are ALWAYS on your side.

Peace & Blessings,
john, 'the Light Coach'

4.0 out of 5 stars OVER THE TOP, January 15, 2008

By	Ellis Shoemaker (New York, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews

"The Secret Gratitude Book" by Rhonda Byrne is most certainly a prosperity book that is OVER THE TOP!

The theoretical focus is that by practicing gratitude you will generate a positive energy that attracts more positive in your life!

Interestingly, most of this book puts the reader to work by maintaining a day by day gratitude journal...and if you do the work you will get the results. The gratitude journal consists of two columns, one where you create a daily list of all the things you are grateful for in your life. The second column consists of a list that you create about all the things you would like to see manifest in your life, and to be grateful for these things as if you've already received them.

A most amazing concept!

I recommend this book because of its uniquely practical focus!
