The first makes sense. Athletes visualize, meditation type stuff can calm emotions and facilitate introspection, etc. Nothing magical there.
The flaw in the secret is the basic idea that whatever happens to you is a result of the thoughts you send out. I would ask what kind of thouhts did the 8 year old girl who gets abducted, raped, killed, cut up and buried in a plastic bag send out??? Or the child who dies of starvation?
The premise is flawed.

Children should not be expected to understand the laws of attraction.
Also, if you stretch anything far enough it will have holes.
Personally, I'll take "the law of attraction" over any organized religion.
