The third secret- "designed to elude observation or detection" has to do with your business plan and how the way you think about the world can affect your success. In 2006 Prime Time Productions produced a film and a book called "The Secret". The film dramatically describes the "Law of Attraction" which asserts that people’s feelings and thoughts attract real events in the world into their lives. Can your feelings and thoughts attract more business and success? Is the visualization of what you want an aid for manifesting your business goals? Is The Secret "just a new spin on the very old (and decidedly not secret" The Power of Positive Thinking (a book by Norman Vincent Peal written in 1952) wedded to ‘ask and you shall receive’ -as opined by Karin Klein, editorial writer for the Los Angeles Times? Did The Secret fail to discover the real roots of powerful thinking?

In the book, "The Diamond Cutter", Geshe Michael Roach examines The Budda on Managing your Business and your Life. Roach graduated from Princeton University with honors, studied the ancient wisdom of Tibet and traveled to the Tibetan Lamas at the seat of His Holiness, the Dalai Lama. In 1983 he took the vows of a Buddhist monk.

His teacher encouraged him to enter the world of business. Mr. Roach choose the diamond business. He hid the fact that he was a monk and maintained a façade of a normal American businessman on the outside. The business developed from nothing to a one hundred million dollar per year business.

The original book, "The Diamond Cutter" is the "oldest dated book in the world that was printed rather than being written out by hand. The British Museum holds a copy that is dated A.D 868." It is a written record of Buddha teachings from over 2,500 years ago. In brief, the central principles are: 1) business should be successful and make money in a clean and honest way; 2) you should enjoy the money and stay in good health; and 3) you should be able to look back ay your business and say your years of doing business had some meaning leaving some good marks in the world. I highly recommend "The Diamond Cutter" vs. "The Secret".

The bottom line: accounts receivable financing and purchase order financing may be the secrets to your business’ financial success. If you read and follow the principles of "The Diamond Cutter" you can expand your opportunities for exponential growth based on the 2500 year old teachings of Buddha, as explained by Mr. Roach.
