How “The Secret” saved our Rescue
Submitted by: Jennifer Akes
Chapmansboro, TNI am a full time student working towards her masters in accounting and CPA certification, and a coordinator of a high risk canine rescue.
A friend bought me a copy of The Secret when it first came out. I was a single mom who was trying to support three kids while going to college. My ex-husband had left us without much, no child support of any kind and I was doing direct marketing. It turned my life around. I began to realize I was concentrating on the wrong things in my life. I had always been positive about my children, but other things in my life I was very negative about.
I began to think about things differently, I began to visualize and became more hopeful. Thanks to The Secret I learned to view my life in a whole new way. I even got a full scholarship to school and found a job that paid well enough for me to stop doing direct marketing and start working from home. I will admit I walked away from The Secret for a few years. My life was going so well I saw no reason to keep doing all the visualization and positive imagery it teaches. I found a wonderful man whom I married and life was good. Until something happened!
My husband and I opened a high risk dog rescue. Everything was going well and then we were hit with a tax debt we couldn’t pay. It looked as though everything was going to be lost, the rescue site, our home, and we would be homeless. While packing to move I found my copy of The Secret. I watched it all the way through and began to remember the things that I had done in the past that made our life so much better. So I created a new board with my dreams and aspirations and began to think positively and stop dreading the tax sale date. I did this 48 hours ago. Today we got a phone call� a group has volunteered to write us a check for the tax debt due to our involvement in our community. We have also gained a corporate sponsor who will be donating $10,000 a year for the dogs care and food. I got an email from my school just moments ago, informing me that I had to much money in my student account and they were depositing 3,316 dollars into my personal bank account, and we got a letter from our electric provider letting us know that they are wavering our electric bill for the next 3 months due to overpayment and a refund of our deposit.
My friends think I am crazy because I cannot stop posting links to your site and raving about The Secret and how it saved not only our home but our rescue as well. I just wanted to say thank you. If you for one moment think this is a phony letter you can check out our rescue site. It is at www.NewLifeRescue.us and we owe our existence to “The Secret”.
Thank you, Jennifer
