Rhonda Byrne was inspired to write The Secret after reading The Science of Getting Rich. The latter was written by Wallace Wattles. Rhonda Byrne read it during a difficult time in her life. Deeply influenced, she conducted an in-depth study of what modern thinkers had to say about how the universe is governed. In her book, she concludes that there is a natural Law of Attraction. The book claims that everybody and everything in the universe has a certain frequency. The law of attraction ensures that an individual automatically attracts events, situations and other people who come within the same frequency range.

In The Secret, Rhonda Byrne says that understanding this Law of Attraction can help us improve our lives. She emphasizes the power of positive thinking. The power to think positively at all times will automatically attract positive events, situations and people in our lives. Thus, people who feel that their life is going out of control should modify their thoughts to think positively. Think that you are rich and you will become rich. Think you are happy and you will be happy. This kind of thinking, the book says, will bring desirable outcomes in life vis-à-vis health, happiness and wealth.
