Personal Development Boom Continues As A Result Of "The Secret"

    /24-7PressRelease/ - July 07, 2007 - Go into any coffee house, step into any office worker's cube, or take a gander over to your nearest water cooler, and it is a safe bet that you are going to hear people talking about "The Secret." What secret is that, you ask? You know, the one that says if you change the way you think, you can have anything you want in life.

For thousands of years, successful people in all walks of life have known something that most others don't and it is this - if you focus on what you want in life instead of constantly worrying about what you don't want, you can absolutely achieve the results you desire. Sounds pretty simple right?

"When I was first introduced to personal development and the Law of Attraction, I thought yeah right," says Paul McDonald, home based entrepreneur who markets personal development products. "But then I started noticing things that seemed all too strange to simply chalk up as a coincidence. And when I really plugged in and started putting these principles to work in my life, the results have been nothing short of tremendous"

McDonald is not the only one who wanted to learn more apparently. Over the last 5 years, there has been a significant increase in sales of personal development products each and every year and last year alone, people spent over 8.9 billion dollars on self development. "People are starting to believe that they are in control and that their results are a reflection of what they think about and in turn, what decisions they make," says McDonald. And with the release of "The Secret," everybody seems to be surfing the internet or heading to their local book stores to learn more. McDonald has personally witnessed that huge shift.

He says that because of "The Secret," his business has gained quite a bit of momentum in the last few months. "The Secret has definitely opened people's eyes. What happens is, people see the movie and are so inspired they immediately begin searching for more information," says McDonald, "however what The Secret lacks is hands on, nuts and bolts type methods to apply the principles in your life. The great thing about the products we offer is, we pick up right where The Secret left off by providing exercises and practical applications so that you can start achieving the results you desire in your life in any area right away. Then when people learn of our franchise model opportunity, in which they are provided a no guesswork blueprint for creating the wealth they want, it's a no brainer.

It is obvious by listening to McDonald's story that people are starting to take personal development and concepts taught in movies like "The Secret" seriously. For McDonald, it is personally rewarding to him that he is assisting so many people change their lives simpy by showing them how to change the way they think. "It feels like we are in the beginning stages of a worldwide awakening, and I am absolutely excited at what the next 3-5 years are going to bring."

He personally assists people in getting started in their own home business as well as mentors them on the mindset required in order to achieve the results they desire.
