What is ‘The Secret’, and does it still apply today?
Well, first off — The Secret is not a secret.
It has been around for thousands of years, and New Thought teachings for the last 120 years have been teaching the law of mind action. That is what The Secret is: how we focus our mind and create what we want.
So yes, it still applies in 2026 — but here’s the most important part:
it’s about more than just things.
The Secret focused on what you could manifest in your life to become richer, more prosperous, more wealthy, and more abundant. But I believe abundance is much more than material possessions.
It includes:
- vibrant health,
- work you truly love — work that excites you…your passion for what you’re doing in the world,
- enriching relationships,
- material resources,
- and also leisure time — so you can sit, relax, enjoy life, have fun, and play.
That’s really The Secret.
