Radio guy from 50' or 60'

[beeks]

Bunch of knowledable guys here and I need your help.

Some time ago I listened and read some highly motivational piece from radio guy from 50' or 60' but I can't remember now his name or the title of this piece.
Something along the lines "Biggest secret"....

Anyone with idea ? I tried searching in the last couple of days but had no luck....

How about more info on the topic? 'Secret' is pretty vague.

MNeagle :

it was a motivational speech how you can acomplish anything. Something along those lines. Think positive, etc...

Well, I'm not so knowledgeable so maybe I can help.

Radio guy? is that a handle or a description?

50' or 60' means 50 or 60 feet, '=feet.

Before my time, but Dale Carnegie was a big motivatinal speaker/writer then I believe. Ziz Ziglar too I think.

You're talking about "The Secret", aren't you? It's that whole "theory of attraction" thing where you pull things towards you in the universe by concentrating on what you do want, versus the less effective way of concentrating on what you want to avoid. The basic philosophy is that by defining your inner being by those things you dislike or want to avoid, you are still a slave and in fear of that object. The only way to be "free" is to put those negative things completely behind you, and focus on attracting positive things. Putting your focus on the avoidance of negative things will end up f*cking you over, while focusing on attracting positive things will benefit.


Or something like that. See if this site is what you are talking about. And don't give them money by buying this DVD, download it instead: http://thesecret.tv/

That theory really works too, especially when applied to snowboarding off the groomed trail. It's that whole "theory of attraction" thing where you pull things towards you in the immediate future by concentrating on the holes or gaps, versus the less effective way of concentrating on the trees you want to avoid.

I have heard the woman that wrote the recent book "The Secret", Claims she can eat any foods that she wants and not gain weight, Just by "thinking thin thoughts"

Eyebone :

He had radio shows in the fifties and sixties. He was quite famous ( has his own wiki page but I can't find him now anywhere....it is like he vanished lol ).

MNeagle :

nope, not Dale Carnegie or Zig Ziglar :(

TheNocturnalEgyptia :

I see this. It is not The Secret. Something similar but still different. I think those guys kind of copied it and added attracting thing....

I am getting crazy now. I know I saved audio and pdf and saw him mentioned on many places but now cannot find anything....like I was dreaming all of this. Feeling stupid really...like in a movie.
