The Secret

[MegamanZero360]

So, there was this book called The Secret someone bought I think it was my mom or my sister, but I saw it lying on a desk and I couldn't resist. So, I read the introduction, it was telling how The Secret changed so many lives and can give you anything you want. And I was like, "The fuck? I wanna know!" So the dumbass me keeps reading, and says how you can get anything you want, if you keep thinking about it. Only think positive thoughts. Its called, the "Law of attraction". And the only reason why bad things happen is because people think about negative things that will happen to them and so it happens. So this " Law of attraction." sounded like a bunch of bull.

So the next day, I try thinking only positive thoughts the whole day. Now, I'm 13, and goes to middle school, I am an 8th grader. But I'm not stupid, I read at a 12th grade level at 3rd grade. Anyways, I sleep at around 12, thinking I'm probably not going to wake up at 6 to get ready for school. But, I decided I will give this stupid thing a try, and think I WILL wake up at 6. Thats all I was thinking about. The next day I woke up at 6:30, close enough.

I get ready for school, and head for the bus. Now, my friends are brutal, middle school is like that. Pretty much trying to impress other people, you have to look cool, act cool, and be cool. So of course, everyone ribs and bags on each other. So I was thinking, " My friends will not make fun of me today." Thats all I was thinking. I saw them walking towards me, and right when they came, they were making fun of another kid next to me. I thought this actually worked. Until 10 min later, they started bagging on me. So much for the secret. I still remained thinking about thoughts. The day was actually going smooth. No complaints. I got hit by some friends a couple of times, like I said, we hit and bag on each other, and I got hit pretty bad right near my nuts, so I got pretty pissed and said fuck the secret. But, right after class, I saw the girl I've liked for the passed 2 weeks.

It all started by me slapping her ass. I do that. Any girl I see, that I like their ass, I slap them. Its what I do. So my friend told me, " You're not down to slap her ass!" I was like" Bet!" So we did, I never did do it, but he has seen me slap other girls asses. But I realized, I didnt do it, because I had feelings for her. So the whole 2 weeks of school was pretty much do a little bit of math, and talk about how I can build my confidence to even ask her her number. Now, I'm not that attractive, but I am not ugly either. I know alot of cool people, but I look like a nerd if you do not know me, probably because I wear glasses.

Now, back to the story. So, I finally build up the courage to tell her I wanted to get to know her better. I go up to her, I'm fumbling with my words, and she tells me, "Are you nervous?" I slightly nod my head. But I tell her that I wanted her number. It felt like time stood still. I kept thinking, she'll say yes, she'll say yes. And she did. But, my stupid phone didnt save it. But the point is that she did give it to me. I know this thing reeks of bullshit, but I still think it might work.

So NG, does your eyes hurt by the way? Tell me if you think this is actually real.

" TL;DR Version. I test this think that says if you think about the thing you want, it will happen. It failed, and it succeeded. All info about the secret.

You got lucky.

I think it's real, because you can do anything if you just BELIEVE ! :D, nah, but thinking positive thoughts probably builds up your confidence and when you're confident about yourself and who you are things are usually better.

Well, if you believe that you are going to fail it will be a self fulfilling prophecy, the same works the other way too.

Luck + confidence.

Hmm... You slap woman's asses... future pedophile?
No...sex offender, or rapist!
Those are the words!
You should stop that, they can press charges.

[armorwarrior]

You... Slap the asses of girls you don't know? Dude you're either an asshole, or a pimp... Then again all pimps are assholes, so maybe both.

[Saren]

There is truth to it.
I'm not saying that this whole universal karma bullshit is true or anything, but I'm guessing that the book is telling you to build up your confidence and believe in yourself.

Along those lines anyway.

The real secret is: the only way a girl will like you is if you whip out your dick and it impresses and is approved of by the girl.

Fake. Things like this are just illusions created by your mind. You think this might work, so when something happens you automatically associate it with the method, and it is coincidence. Your brain adds significance to the coincidence and it feels tied to to whatever you might think would do that. That's how the human brain works. We try to recognize pasterns, even in events that have absolutely no pattern.
