Hit And Run.
Submitted by: Sabina A,
New York, NY4th year medical school student.
I had discovered The Secret and then I read the The Power and Hero last summer and it has made my life better every day. I am applying for a surgical residency and sending all of my good energy and gratitude toward receiving the residency of my dreams for spring 2015. In the meantime, I am a happier, more positive person and that has been enough of a benefit for me.
Last month I was in a minor car accident where I took complete responsibility but because of some miscommunication, I received a letter where I was notified that I had to call an officer in charge on my case because I was being charged with Hit and Run. I was threatened with having my license revoked, which would be devastating since the dream job I had in mind required a lot of driving between hospitals and medical centers. Also working in a competitive medical field a vague charge of a Hit and Run could be interpreted as something much more serious and I wouldn’t even be granted a chance to explain myself as a candidate with a clear record would be preferred.
I called the officer with shaking hands and left him a voice mail. Was I responsible? Yes. Did I speak with the other party? Yes. Was there miscommunication? Yes. Did I hit a vehicle and flee the scene? NO.
I called the officer every few days for weeks and kept leaving messages. Every lawyer I spoke to advised me not to speak to the police myself, so I got scared that it might have been a bad idea to leave all those messages explaining myself.
But, this is where the power of attraction came in and this is where I take Rhonda’s suggestion and I used my imagination. I pretended that the officer heard my explanations and the threw away the charges. In the stress of applying for residencies and studying for my boards when thoughts of the “hit and run” came into my mind, I would pretend that it was already resolved and it is resolved in my favor. Every day, a few times a day, I pushed the scary thoughts out and I lived my day happy.
I finally got a call yesterday from the officer and he was a very nice and understanding man. Through my shaky voice I explained my case to him again.
He told me not to worry, that he got so busy that he never even mailed me a citation and I won’t even get a fine for the incident.
I had belief from the day I saw The Secret movie on Netflix, but if this isn’t the power of love, the power of positive thinking and the power of attraction at play, I do not know what it is.
Albert Einstein said ”There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”
I will go on studying for my boards and preparing for my interviews, treating people around me with love as I fantasize of the day I get the residency of my dreams and all the things that lead up to the day, work out perfectly for it to happen.
