The document discusses an interview that the author had with Rhonda Byrne about the movie The Secret. In the interview, Rhonda says that the idea for the movie trailer came to her suddenly and she created it within 10 minutes. For the full movie, Rhonda said the idea also came to her as an inspiration, though she did the work to create it. The author believes the movie was so successful because it was part of the divine unfolding, even though Rhonda worked hard on it. Rhonda later said the movie took on a life of its own, and she was just responding to opportunities rather than having intentions.

www.thesecret.tv.) She once told me that the idea for the movie teaser came to her suddenly and within a few seconds. She made the actual preview within 10 minutes. Clearly she received some sort of inspira- tion that led to the making of the strongest movie teaser in history. But I wanted to know if the idea for the final feature movie itself came from inspiration or if she felt she did it for some other reasons. This was the crux of my concern about intentions.
