The Magic, It Really Works!

The book, The Magic, came at a time when I was moving out of a rental home with so many issues that were not disclosed by the owner/landlord. One day, I came home to a water leak as well as water coming out of the wood floors. I brought all these issues to my Landlord, but his response was, “I will not fix it”.
While this was happening, I was also following the exercise for each chapter.
The first thing I was grateful for was a good attorney, even though I didn’t have one yet. The following day, I called several real estate attorneys well versed in landlord-tenant issues, yet no one seemed available. I once again, began to be grateful, thanking God and the universe and called the last attorney on my list and asked for an appointment. To my amazement, the attorney’s assistant asked if I could come in the same day and so I did and hired the attorney in one day. I said to myself, wow this attitude of gratitude really works!
The following week, I moved out of my rental home. I once again was grateful for a new place and in one day, I found a new place to live. I kept on with this attitude of gratitude up to the day I sued my landlord in spite of threatening emails from his attorney. I was steadfast in thanking the universe and thanking God, this time grateful for the victory on my case.
Fast forward to the present, I was surprised to get a call from my attorney telling me of the news that my Landlord wants to settle out of court, wow!
Even in overwhelming situations such as mine, there is so much to be thankful for. Ever since I received the book, I have continued with writing in my journal every night and recounting the wonderful blessings during the day and more important, being grateful even for the little things.
