Many of us who are struggling with depression or simply want to transform our lives for the better are searching for the secret formula to win our battles. In our search, we can find a relevant book titled ‘The Secret’ by Rhonda Byrnes that will show you how to use positivity as your main tool for victory. Does the ‘Secret’ really work to change our lives?

‘The Secret’ is a self-help book that focuses on the power of positive thinking in the personal journey to overcome depression and change life for the better. It is written by Rhonda Byrne, famous for her defense of the value and importance of positive thoughts. Although she has written another book that also deals with the power of thoughts, it is in ‘The Secret’ where she was able to gain the great popularity of it.

Does the ‘Secret’ really work? The book is strongly anchored in the law of attraction, specifically in the use of positive thinking as a solution to get everything we want out of life. It shows us how, through our positive thoughts, we can control our situation and transform our lives in any aspect, be it our personal or professional life, regardless of how serious or mundane.

The author is firm in her affirmation that nothing is impossible if we learn to use the law of attraction to manage our lives. For Rhonda, the law of attraction is absolute. In this law, she says that whatever need or desire we have, the world will give to us as long as we think positively. The law of attraction describes the world as a generous world that works for and not against our desires and desires only if we want them.

There is no question that the law of attraction, particularly positive thinking, works to help us feel better, do better, and live a rewarding life. But it is not an absolute law since it does not take into account human weaknesses and the strong force and temptation of evil that can hinder positivity. Although by nature the human being and the world are generally kind, the fact is that there are the attractions and temptations of evil.

Does the ‘Secret’ really work? It does this in large part to motivate us to channel our energies into positive thoughts to get what we need and want out of life. We just have to learn to resist the alluring temptations of evil and we’ll be good to go.

My personal experience with ‘The Secret’ is that it absolutely changed my life. That and the associated books and beliefs, along with a lot of professional help, have allowed me to overcome depression, addiction, smoking, and repeated bouts of self-harm.

If I have to recommend it for one reason, it gave me hope, it gave me a light to follow that could potentially change my life. You see, all the professional help in the world didn’t really allow me to take responsibility for my own life. He was still mentally ill before he met ‘The Secret’ because he was seeing doctors and taking medication. I would like to recommend Rhonda Byrne’s book to the rooftops. She completely changed my life and continues to do so every day. Every time I get off track, I know I need to get into the Law of Attraction mindset to turn things around. Trust me, it is often very difficult. Anyone who suffers from depression and associated problems and personality types knows that they are having a lifelong battle with their head and inside their head. ‘The Secret’, among other props, gave me a lifeline and self-awareness like nothing else has to date.

There are probably many skeptics who would question this book and self-help books in general. I would say to them that they are very privileged because they probably don’t need self-help books and I’m glad for them that they don’t. For the rest of us who struggle every day with mental health issues, I would say this book is brilliant and life changing.

If you suffer from depression, please seek help for yourself!
