A Dream Come True

Any place, USAWielder of the law of attraction!
Ever since I visited the school two years ago, I knew (Name of College) was the perfect place for me to embark on my higher educational journey. I was attracted to every aspect of the university. But for some reason, I doubted the fact that I would even be accepted there. I had good grades and solid extracurriculars and test scores throughout high school, but my negative attitudes eventually led to my constant negative thoughts of me being rejected. By the way, I started having those negative thoughts before I even applied.
Nevertheless, my Mom coerced me into applying early in November 2008. In early December 2008, my Aunt sent me The Secret (book) as a birthday present. She told me that after reading and applying the lessons of the book, her life transformed completely. I usually think self-help books are completely bogus, but I thought I had nothing to lose so I read it.
That was probably the best decision I have ever made so far in my life. The book only took me two days to read and after finishing it, I attempted to use the law of attraction to bring more happiness and success into my life. Knowing that I would receive the decision from (name of college) the next week, I constantly forced myself to imagine myself opening my acceptance packet.
The day finally comes and after opening the packet, I discover that I didn’t get accepted. But I didn’t get rejected either. I was deferred to regular decision, which means I would not learn of my decision until April. Before reading The Secret, I would have panicked, therefore bringing more negative thoughts into my mind. But instead I was thankful for my decision because, after all, I was not rejected.
Over the next few months, I would wake up each morning and just imagine myself moving into my dorm room in August as a freshman at (name of college). I even typed up my own fake acceptance letter and stuck it on the refrigerator so that every time I would go the fridge, I would see it.
Finally, the official day in April arrived and to “not” my surprise, I was accepted to (name of college). Between the months of December 2008 and April 2009, all my arduous imagining eventually transformed into me truly believing that I was accepted to (Name of College). So when the official decision came, I was not surprised because I already knew.
Thank you Rhonda for your wonderful book.
Wield the law of attraction!
