2020 Was A Blessing In Disguise.
Submitted by: Ferdinand
Jakarta, IndonesiaCurrently enrolling in my final year of a bachelor of science in Business Management degree in Hong Kong. In progress to establishing solid wealth, a career, and a relationship before going to settle down in Indonesia.
This is going to be a long story.
Christmas of 2019 was a wonderful time for me. I visited my girlfriend’s family and relatives in North Sumatera and everybody welcomed me. We even traveled to Toba Lake, the biggest lake in Indonesia and the biggest volcanic lake in the world. It was really an unforgettable moment for us.
I was in the final year of my associate degree before I enrolled for my bachelor’s degree in March of 2020. I asked my professor about a reserved seat and he told me that he would reserve a seat for me for my bachelor program. I got a new job with a basic salary equal to that of a newly graduated student!
Then suddenly, everything started to fall apart in January 2020 after my birthday. My girlfriend and I had a fight due to my mistake. In the end, she blocked me from everything.
My final year program application was rejected by the program team due to a low GPA.
COVID-19 caused the company to have to end my contract after only a month. So no job.
It was really devastating and I felt hopeless. I kept crying in my room. I was depressed because my future was in serious trouble. I was 100K HKD in debt for my final year program. I was jobless and disqualified from my final year enrollment, plus, I only had 60K HKD savings left in my bank account. I was thinking about ending my life.
Then when I was online, I saw something about a motivational video and it linked me to “The Secret” video. I saw the video and the main points were:
1. Thoughts attract ‘things’.
2. Always have gratitude and say “thank you”.
3. Ask, receive, believe.
The video also talks about vision boards and how to write down your desires. I decided to attach photos on my vision board along with my gratitude lists based on goals, followed by “thank you” at the end of my gratitude lists. I also changed my music style to motivational songs. I did everything according to my knowledge based on “The Secret”
And The Magic happened!
I received a call from my college on the 29th of March saying that they still had one seat left to be reserved only for me! And I received their call 2 days before the deadline! I had already tried to enroll in many colleges and I had not received any response. I paid my tuition fees afterward on March 30th and the 31st was the enrollment deadline! Finally, I was able to enroll in my final year bachelor’s degree program without any hassle, exactly on the first day of the new semester!
Also, I had only 25K HKD savings left in my bank account. I did not know how I was going to pay for the last 2 semesters left. Then I got a call from a company manager saying that they received my application last February. I really totally forgot that I had applied for this job! I took the interview and I got hired! I worked for three months there and I now can pay for the next semester’s tuition fees and still have enough savings to pay for my final semester tuition fees too! I have already set up my new goals including fixing my relationship.
The law of attraction is real! The Universe is real! Your wish is its command! I am really grateful and thankful for The Secret for assisting me during my tough times. It changed me from an unplanning, selfish, short-minded boy to becoming a well organized, wise, mature man.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
