Where does The Secret get it right? Part 3

While I don't buy the idea that your thoughts explain everything about you and that they bring every good or bad event into your life, which is what The Secret teaches, who can help but agree with the idea that what we think is very, very important?

Your thinking doesn’t explain everything that goes on in your life or in the world- even if your thoughts affect things, hopefully there’s someone else out there thinking besides you and also affecting reality, so it's not all you- but your thinking does explain a lot about you and me and it truly shapes us in some measure.

What you believe affects the decisions you make, which brings about the outcomes you experience. It is not 100% cause and effect, there are other factors besides your thinking, but there is a link between our thoughts and our experiences. Even the Big Black Book says that transformation takes place via the renewing of your mind.

So, Secret people, I agree, what you think is important. It’s not the whole deal, but it is a big part of our lives.
