The Secret and the Law of Attraction The Secret and the Law of Attraction This podcast will help you to understand the Power behind "the Secret". The "Law of Attraction" is an important part in the Secret of Success, inasmuch as it tends to bring to us the things, persons and circumstances in accordance with our earnest Desire, Demand, and Will, just as it brings together the atoms and other particles of matter. Make yourself an atom of Living Desire and you will attract to yourself the person, things and circumstances fitting in with the accomplishment of your Desire. You will also get into rapport with those who are working along the same lines of thought, and will be attracted to them and they to you, and you will be brought into relations with persons, things and environments likely to work out the problem of your Desires – you will get “next to” the right persons and things - all by the operation of this great natural Law of Attraction.

After much thought and some hesitation I have done so. The former work was meant to be complete in itself, presenting not merely the night-side of tribulation, but bringing out also, though less prominently, some of its day-hues. As, however, it has been thought incomplete, having in it so much more of night than of clay; an endeavour has been made to complete it by drawing forward the eye to the scenes of morning, so soon to open upon us, in all their breadth and beauty. In this way we are led to forget the things that are behind, and to reach forward to those before, pressing towai-ds the mark for the prize of our high calling. And the fuller, the truer, the more frequent our anticipations of promised glory are, the deeper and th The Donald Schulz Project The Donald Schulz Project Years ago I release some of my music under the name of "Thunderfoot" This was my own invention made up of hired musicians and friends playing my songs and arrangements. The reality of this song and dance was just to keep the attention away from me. I have always enjoyed producing but similar to the Allan Parsons Project he and his partner were frustrated with dealing with difficult artists. What if we could put together the people that are right for a particular song and produce this with our original thoughts behind the song when we wrote it. That is what I did when I released under the name of Thunderfoot and now I will begin to release those same kind of productions under the name of The Donald Schulz Project. I am coming out of the closet sort of speak. Hope you enjoy some of the things that I put out here.
