Pastor Rod Pickett at Kingdom Come has a great post on The Secret.
There is a new book out by that title and Oprah has devoted a few shows to it. Rod sums it up this way:
The Secret is both good and bad. Many people could benefit from some of the techniques presented in The Secret. But the underlying philosophy is dangerous. The answer to “all our problems” is not getting what we want. It is rather submitting to the true King who seeks to fulfill the deepest desires of our hearts (Psalm 37:4). And this submission often feels like moving away from the very things we think we really want. Jesus called it denying ourselves and taking up our cross (Luke 9:23).
I encourage you to check out the rest of the article.
