Journal Title: International Journal of English and Literature (IJEL) - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 4
Abstract
The journey of life is strewn with plethora of unfavorable circumstances and stormy happenings, where faith trembles, thoughts become vague, actions stationary and dreams immaterialized. People in the present era lack self insight as they are not aware of conflicts and unconscious forces in the mind. Modern men is living in a social climate where certain factors affects his mental equilibrium such as lack of social security or an increase in self- doubt as he strives to satiate unrealistic expectations of a materialistic society. As Rhonda Byrne in The Secret says: “The universe is a mirror and the law of attraction is mirroring back to you your dominant thoughts”. Everything rests on thought. They are the building blocks of life. The whole world, nation or society can be changed with just an idea or a thought. The law says ‘What one thinks one becomes that’. The present paper is thus an attempt to trace the power to heal the confused state of one’s mind through the law of attraction suggested by Rhonda Byrne and move to the plane of happiness. The author strongly says that happiness is emotional comfort that is to feel at ease within oneself. To create happiness, to lead a happy life is just a choice to make with the right thought.
