The Secret No One Talks About

My friend Bill Harris of Centerpointe just posted a long article explaining why the concepts in The Secret won’t always work. I think this one is thought provoking. It’s at www.themastersofthesecret.com/letter

Starter Mansions

The home we looked at in San Clemente two weeks ago turned out to be what I now call a starter mansion.

I’m after something bigger.

The above picture is closer to what I’m now dreaming about.
It’s a breathtaking paradise estate spreading over 9.5 acres. Virtually everything you see in that picture is part of the estate.
It’s described as “…ideal for entertaining within your own resort complete w/a water theme park, a lagoon, waterfalls, slides, a pirate ship, caves, an entertaining guest pool house. Enjoy your own lake, a covered pavilion, separate 2 bedroom/guest house…”
I don’t think this one is a starter mansion.

What I'm Reading

This is the current pile of books at my feet right now.
I’m always longing to find one book that just grabs and holds me, but usually I have to bounce around several, like panning for gold.
Many of the ones here were used in my research while writing my next book, Zero Limits.
What are you reading these days?

On Being Bald

Yesterday I heard that some of the attackers of The Secret are now personally attacking me.
One of their observations is that I’m bald, and so maybe the Law of Attraction doesn’t really work.
I’ve never regarded being bald as a problem. If I did, I could attract all sorts of solutions to it, from toupees to plugs to hair transplants to whathaveyou. I’m simply not interested.
I’m surprised the persuasion experts are resorting to personal attacks, but maybe they’re just jealous that they’re not bald, too.
Bless their hairy little heads.
Ao Akua,
Joe
PS — I saw a few of the articles out there ridiculing the movie The Secret and mentioning me in them. Beware online journalism. Several articles said I am a former Amway top level executive. I never knew that. Guess I better contact Amway. I bet they didn’t know it, too. In case you can’t guess, I’ve never been employed by Amway and have never even used their product. Hey, maybe they have one for baldness.

Was I on Oprah?

People keep telling me they loved seeing me on Oprah.

That makes my head turn like a curious puppy, because I didn’t go on Oprah.

But then it occured to me that maybe Oprah showed a clip of me from the movie The Secret.

So, if you saw that clip of me on Oprah, would you post a comment and let me know?

Larry King aired three specials on The Secret and I was a guest on two of them. Oprah aired two specials on The Secret but I wasn’t on either as a guest.

But if I was seen on Oprah, that’s bragging rights.

Ao Akua,

Joe

PS – The picture above has nothing to do with Oprah or The Secret. It’s just one of my favorite singers: Sass Jordan. My number one favorite is still Michelle Malone, but I’d let Sass play for me any time, too.
