First would like to give all thanks to God and Rhonda for changing my life!! Thank you to all who shared their stories,- they really helped me a lot! The Secret does work, and it works in the most amazing ways!
In the summer of 2019, my relationship with my boyfriend had completely crashed in an instant. He all of the sudden stopped doing the things that he used to, and was barely giving me any effort. I spent every night crying myself to sleep, wondering why I wasn’t good enough, and my anxiety was out of this world. I lasted about 2 months, way too long but I don’t give up easily and I had planned to spend the rest of my life with him. However, I felt I had no choice but to pull the plug. “Maybe if I break up with him, he will fix his act.”
As I was enduring my worst heartbreak, my mom began pushing The Secret onto me. This wasn’t the first time I had heard about it, as my mom had been praising it and suggesting it to me for years but I used to think it was phony. I finally gave it a shot because, what else did I have to lose?
That was when I started really getting into this whole manifesting thing, and I wanted to manifest my ex back. I wrote a list of my perfect guy, but had asked that my ex fulfill be the one that fulfilled this list because he was the only one I wanted at the time. I also wrote down some other goals.
Slowly, all my wishes were coming true except the one I wanted so badly, why? Because I could not let go for the life of me!!! I had a firm grip on my wish for my ex to come back which is why it wasn’t manifesting. The art of letting go is the most important step in manifestation. When you let go, you allow space for God/the Universe to come in and perform the magic. But I couldn’t let go because I didn’t believe enough. I believed the well placed the lie in my head that I couldn’t be happy until I received it. That was a big ‘no-no’!! – In order to receive, you have to be happy now, and I mean truly happy.
During the time that I was learning to let go, I was also learning to love myself again, and I was learning to trust God. I focused on being content on my own, and really cracked down on what I want my next relationship to be like. December hit and I had had enough of holding on so tightly to this guy, who in the end, was just prolonging my growth. I let go of my wish and even opened up to the idea that maybe he was not the one for me, and that someone else might be able to give me everything on my “list”.
Not even 2 weeks after I let go, I had met a guy who I now call my boyfriend. He is absolutely everything I had written down on my “perfect guy” list and more. Unlike my ex, I didn’t have to compromise my wants because he fits them all. The ironic part of this story is, my mom had been wanting us to get together during those 5 months prior, and had planned for us to meet but it just never happened. I think that is a great testimony of God’s perfect timing. God placed him in my life when he knew I was finally ready for him and our relationship.
Trust the timing!! No, I didn’t get my original wish for my ex to come back, but I got something far better! I found the true love of my life, and someone who complements me so well!
The Secret changed my life and I continue to manifest wishes so effortlessly now! The key is to let go and be happy now. You cannot be so reliant on your wish, you almost have to act like it doesn’t even matter to you because you’re already so happy without it. As far as I can tell, its just about letting the universe know what you want, then letting go of how you think it will come to pass. Not needing something, actually attracts it to you.
Thank you.
