			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To Create your Opus you must dive through a window of opportunity.</p>
<p>There is a common thread that runs through <a href="http://www.theopusmovie.com">The Opus</a>… each speaker shows how they were able to accomplish great things by opening all the doors and windows and letting the good come in. No matter what their fears, weaknesses or adversities, the common thread of the opus is to open your heart and your mind to the gift that you have been given</p>
<p>Most people try to let the good in through a keyhole.</p>
<p>The message is clear if you want an opportunity break, you have to dive through the window of opportunity, acknowledge your passion, acknowledge your gift, make a decision and literally leap on board.</p>
<p>To create your Opus takes a decision, to acknowledge your vision, make a plan and stick with it.</p>
<p>The people who succeed make decisions and then stick to them, whereas those who fail make decisions and then change their mind.</p>
<p>We all have windows in our lives. Become aware of the ones that are right in front of you. What may seem like a chance encounter, could be an amazing opportunity. Your own Opus is calling to you… it may not be in the form of one big lucky break… but it will manifest if you take all the small breaks that lead up to it. To seize your occasional big opportunity you need to step through all the small windows first. Creates the mindset of the Achiever. Windows will open because you have set an intention that you want something to happen.</p>
<p>When you understand the way your mind works you will know that you can bring about the things you are seeking, just by planting the idea into your subconscious…your subconscious will get to work on making it come about and you will suddenly start to see those opportunities popping up everywhere. Make a commitment . Take action. Deal with any setbacks. Re-Commit. Take Action.</p>
<p>Your Opus awaits you.</p>

<p>Dictionaries define an Opus as the most brilliant composition a music composer creates in a lifetime.</p>
<p>After interviewing more than 400 of the world’s top achievers Vermeeren has a deep understanding of the unlimited potential that we all have with our lives.  He now travels the world speaking to audiences with the goal of helping people to turn their amazing potential into awesome performance.</p>
<p>Vermeeren says ‘Each of us is our own instrument and we create our personal symphony by what we do with our lives’</p>
<p>Therefore, The Opus is really an invitation to take your life and create the most incredible and awesome legacy that is within you.</p>
<p>In creating the movie The Opus, Vermeeren invited several of the world&#8217;s greatest teachers and top achievers to help him to answer the question.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;You have set a goal. You know what you want with clarity. But what is the next step? What can you do?&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>The Opus delivers the answer to that question. What next?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>During May 2008, the Opus movie was released in the US and Canada. Here are some reviews&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://cyrescafe.net/blog/movies/the-opus-movie-from-douglas-vermeeren-update/#comment-19549">Morgan K.</a> says: I saw the Opus movie in Scottsdale Arizona! What an incredible movie. It was by FAR better than the Secret or any other movie to come out yet. It had the audience so inspired they were crying. It was so moving and inspiring. WHAT WILL YOUR OPUS BE should be the question that the everyone on the planet asks. It was amazing.</p>
<p><a href="http://cyrescafe.net/blog/movies/the-opus-movie-from-douglas-vermeeren-update/#comment-18776">Tad Collett</a> says: The Opus rocks!!!!! I loved it. It was far better than the Secret. The Secret tried to be all mysterious but delivered little value. The Opus gave me stuff I could use. This is such a better movie! Hands down. No competition. The story was also awesome. Definitely a stronger movie. See it. You will also be impressed.</p>
<p><a href="http://surfaceearth.wordpress.com/2007/07/25/225/#comment-6478">Kevin Lubeski</a> says: The Opus was great. I am really excited to see what will happen for this film over the next while. There are many that I spoke with who are involved in the film industry and they are quite excited about it. I have heard more than one person suggest that this film will win several awards because of the dynamic and powerful story, the professional look of the film and more. I am a filmmaker myself and agree. it was very well done.</p>
<p>I just recently saw the Secret and although I liked it, I would have to say that from a technical point of view and as a viewer The Opus is a stronger movie. And here’s a reasons why:</p>
<p>The Opus had a brilliant narrative running through out. It got the audience engaged and the narrative also instructed and was relevant to the lessons taught.</p>
<p>The Opus has a progression of concepts, while the Secret shared the same information again and again only with different episodes inside the film. (Many of which did not relate to me at all &#8211; ie. A gay commedian, a girl on a beach looking for love, or a guy in his house looking at post cards of elephants.) The Opus is audience sensitive.</p>
<p>The Opus also provided practical, measurable information for the viewer. The Secret spoke about a mysterious law that really is more feeling than anything.<br />
The Opus had appropriate visuals through out, The Secret I felt robbed the vault of stock photography available on the internet to anyone.</p>
<p>The Musical score of the Opus also told the story. It felt custom built, while the Secret felt like it also came from a pre-recorded library.</p>
<p>The Opus did not discount the faith of it’s viewers. Many different thoughts were expressed yet none were discounted. I have read for a long time this battle the Secret created with christians and others. As I watched the film I could really see how the New Age thoughts of The Secret overshadowed their message.</p>
