I'm guessing it's a touchy-feely self motivation/positive thinking thing.

Not really. It's more of a philosophical kind of film. Basically all people have the ability to attract the things they think about. If you think about debt a lot; you will attract more debt. I f you think about war; you will attract more war. However if you focus you thoughts on money or peace will begin to attract what you want instead of more of what you don't want.
I am a pessimistic person by nature and it's easy for me to dismiss the whole thing as a load of bull. However the movie has some really good points and just a simple change of attitude can do a lot for a person. Ever since I saw the movie a couple of months ago I decided that I would try it because after all it couldn't hurt. I am still not convinced it really "works" but the simple act of thinking more positively has made me much more aware of opportunities I most certainly would have missed had been in the pessimistic mindset that has me believe I am not worthy. Granted I am still a far way away from being a truly optimistic person but working trying to be has really changed my life.
