Step 7: Book 7: The Secret by Rhonda Byrne 朗达拜恩 《秘密》

This is the handbook of "The Law Of Attraction:" the idea that you can think the things you want into existence. Here's a taste: "You are the master of the Universe. You are the heir to the kingdom. You are the perfection of Life."

Are you sensing a theme? Most of these books essentially tell you to think positive and visualize what you want. Maybe one of them will inspire you, and that's great. If not, know that quick fixes aren't usually the ones that last. Good luck.
