My story
Submitted by: Sophie B
EnglandI’ve only just read The Secret and it is amazing and has changed the way I think and Im so much more positive then I was before. Anyway to my story….
Three years ago when I was 16 I lost my Dad who I lived with and depended on, he was my every thing. Two weeks later I had to be moved out of the house Id lived in for five years with him as it was rented and they made up some excuse as to why my boyfriend couldnt carry on renting it. I moved into my Mums house with her and my Step Dad and it was living hell! He was so nasty and I was so far from my friends and close family, I hated it. Three months later I moved in with my boyfriend and couldnt get a job. Id meant to re do my gcse’s at college but my Dad died the week I was meant to start.
I did a child care course but no job came of it, no jobs were replying to my applications. After a year of being unemployed I sat and did some thinking, realizing my life was going nowhere I decided to write a list of what I wanted to achieve.
Heres the list:
Achieve a level 2 in maths(to be able to get into uni)
Be accepted into University to do nursing
Pass my driving test
Buy a car
Be happy in a relationship
Get a job
Six months later Id been accepted into Uni, on the condition of my maths certificate, passed my maths, passed my driving test, bought a car, found new love (which Im very happy) and got a job in the hospital!
A few months after that I decided to add another thing to the list. I wanted a mortgage and a house.
Three months later I found the perfect new house, got the mortgage straight away. Then we had a problem, we couldnt afford the deposit we were 1000 pound short and had three weeks to get it. Tow days later I heard the stamp duty had been removed! This gave us 1750 pound less to pay!…
Ive now just started Uni today and still have my job part time and Im happier than ever.
I used The Secret without realizing!
