A Secret Scrolls message from Rhonda Byrne

Creator of The Secret
If somebody had told me eight years ago that the way out of my financial struggle and difficulties was in giving, I would have thought they were crazy; after all, my thinking at that time was that I had nothing to give. I was barely surviving myself! But after I discovered The Secret, I realized how wrong that thinking was.
In fact, the effects of giving can be so great that its practice has become known as 'the law of prosperity.' Dating back to Ancient Egypt and Babylonia, human beings have known and practiced tithing - that is, giving a certain percentage of one's income. The practice of tithing has been a part of many cultures and religions across the world, and continues to the present day. The word 'tithe' actually means 'one tenth,' and here at The Secret we follow this tradition. From the moment we received our first dollar of revenue, long before we made a profit, The Secret has tithed 10% of all revenue received.
Everyone wants to give, but the problem for most people is that by the time they've finished taking care of themselves and their family, and get around to the giving part, they've got nothing left. Wealthy people will tell you that to see the revolutionary financial benefits of tithing, it has to be a priority, and the first thing you do when you receive your income.
Having plenty of money or having a lack of money is based on what we constantly hold in our mind, and the law of attraction will obey and faithfully fulfill either one equally. Tithing is a powerful way to revolutionize your mind about money; the very act of tithing says that there is plenty of money, because you're giving some away. As a consequence, it will increase the flow of money and all good things into your life. And, you will discover that the joy and happiness you receive in return is far beyond the monetary value of what you gave.
So, who do you tithe to? Choose something that inspires YOU and that elicits strong positive feelings of joy and happiness in you. If those emotions subside after a while, feel free to change where you tithe. You can begin at 5% or lower, and work your way up to 10%.
The basis of my new book, HERO, is that you can be or do anything and make your greatest dream come true. In the spirit of giving and making dreams come true, The Secret donates 12% of revenue from sales ofHERO to the various charities and foundations of HERO's contributors.
