		<description>I like to park far away.  I need the exercise.  :-)  

I&#039;ve liked these posts.  I bought two CD series from TUT a year and a half ago, and while they were uplifting, they were more like the Secret... Holosync has helped me more in the last 6 months than anything else has helped me in YEARS.  I&#039;ve changed my eating habits and lost weight, I&#039;m more positive in general, and I&#039;m HAPPY.  And I&#039;m only on Awakening Prologue!  Thank you, Bill!!</description>

		<description>I owe everything I have to the wish fairy! Why just this morning I wished for a million dollars and the next thing you know, I received several e-mails informing me that I had won several lotteries. How do I know that it was magic? Because I hadn&#039;t even entered any of the lotteries that I had won. 

Now there&#039;s the proof that magic thinking works!</description>

		<description>This is the most reassuring, calming information I have seen in a long time. Not that I wouldn&#039;t want magic that worked to get me out of these difficult and painful times. But I have not read The Secret or watched the movie because I have been afraid it would lure me into believing in things that don&#039;t work, and then wasting more time. I&#039;m not even sure where I am with regard to your definitions, Bill, but I know I want to get to a better place, where I am not paralyzed by the thought of bills coming in and not enough money to pay them. The trouble is, my idea for overcoming this is either to continue the way I have been going (and hope for improvement somehow, either my own or the reception that others have to what I create, which is dangerously close to magical thinking) or to go back to the old way, hunting down a job that I don&#039;t like and doing it until I die, no matter how mindless and miserable it is, or how many magical thinkers I have to take orders from. The trouble is I&#039;d rather die than do that.</description>

		<description>Bill,  I like your example of the parking spaces to explain an example of magical thinking. However, I get confused when I hear Abraham (Esther Hicks) proclaim that what you really, really want and what you really, really, don&#039;t want is what you attract.  You say that one must take action to obtain the desire and by focusing on the desire, we see things and notice opportunities which we wouldn&#039;t ordinarily see if our focus was not there.  My confusion and question is, how is one taking action to get cancer if they are focusing on NOT wanting cancer?  Cindy</description>

		<description>Thanks for all your creations with which you are trying to help so many people.
I find the discussions about magic and &quot;The Secret&quot; sometimes confusing, the secret for me was just an indication how we influence our life&#039;s, with all the explanations we make it more complicated then it realy is. The position we find ourselves in at this stage of our lives does not come from magic but is due to our &quot;Intent&quot; or &quot;Focus&quot;
I believe this was already pointed at by James Allen in his book &quot;As a man Thinketh&quot; Some good material to watch to help understanding this are:
&quot;What the Bleep do we Know&quot; and &quot;Conscious acts of Creation&quot; (Dr. William Tiller)
Be Well

		<description>Hello, 

I&#039;m using Holosync technology and appreciate the research that has gone into it. I also appreciate your perspective on the Secret. I share your perspective. Actually, it was Ken Wilber&#039;s Integral philosophy that most helped me to think clearly about this. From my reading of your blog, it&#039;s clear that he is also your philosophical teacher - or one of them.  You seem to be using his precise arguments and framework. That&#039;s great, but I&#039;m wondering why you don&#039;t credit Ken? (I&#039;ve only read a few of the blogs, so maybe this is happening already, and I just need to read more. Thanks for your great work and your service to make a better world.</description>

		<description>I definitely realize that there is no &#039;magic&#039; or wishful thinking involved in attaining what it is you desire as the media would have liked the general population to believe after the release of the Secret. I found that the Secret did not fully explain that you need to work at what it is you want not just &#039;wish&#039; for  it and think that&#039;s all there is to it. Having said that I have been on a journey to heal a health issue and have worked extremely hard on all aspects of my healing. My blood work has recently all come back normal but my body tells me (with pain and inflammation) that I am not healed. Where am I going wrong? I appreciate the opportunity to comment. Thank you so much.</description>
