that's the 'rob'.

[Aikuzo]

On movie The Secret, someone said "You'll gravitate what you are thinking, whether it is conscious... or unconscious, that's the rob"

What does that "rob" means on that context?

Hello Aikuzo,

Are you sure they said "rob"?

If they said "That's the rub", that would mean something like "That's the problem" or "That's the difficult part."

Look at definition 14 here:

Look at the explanations of the expression "There's the rub" here:

The most famous usage, as Esl_Expert mentions above, is in the "To be or not to be" speech in Shakespeare's Hamlet.
This is probably the most famous speech in Shakespeare's works:

To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them. To die, to sleep—
No more—and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to. 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep—
To sleep—perchance to dream. Ay, there's the rub!

I don't get this "gravitate" either.
