That's simple. The ones that they recognize.

Same principle.

You get what you focus on.


Ooooohhh! Sounds really mystical! Should I stop taking my medicine?

I don't mean to be disrespectful, Ari. But I'm just thinking - why do people need to buy a book/dvd/board game/self help coach to tell them that.

That is not a secret. That is common sense.

Why do teams have coaches? Each player knows how to win, what's the coach there for?

People get what their little minds deserve. TV is a vast wasteland... Daytime TV is pandering to the smallest of minds. I remember surfing through channels while I was on vacation a couple of years ago. Oprah had a guy on their discussing health. He made a statement that blew me away. Something about how the oxygen content in the atmosphere was in the 35% range in the 1800s. I immediately changed the channel. I'm sure people bought into that idea.

Because sports involve decisions, and a team is not a democracy.

Perhaps the most controversial claim in "The Secret" is that the mind wields enormous power over our health.

"I've seen kidneys regenerated. I've seen cancer dissolved," said Michael Bernard Beckwith, founder of Agape International Spiritual Center.

Byrne told ABC that she wouldn't even get a flu shot because "if you're feeling good, how can you attract any illness to you?"

"Disease cannot live in a body that's in a healthy emotional state," Proctor says in the film.

Oprah is why my wife wants me to read Sidney Poitier's Measure of a Man book.

I think Oprah might be the anti-christ.

I do appreciate the part where they say that it's sooooooo controversial to claim that the mind wields enormous power over our health. Oh wow! Such controvesey! Straight out of left field! Well, except for the fact that the "placebo effect" has demonstrated this to be the truth for almost a century... But other than that! Wow! It's just wacky-crazy!

* Video cameras at a bachelor party or an all guy Vegas Vacation.

* A 2nd attempt at a failed high five.

* Channel surfing during a football game.

* Oprah threads on Chiefsplanet.

Can anyone tell me what these four situations have in common?
