Attracting Your Desires
Submitted by: Terry Minion
Fairfield CAI am a 60 year old male, in a new business of my own creation with a great partner, and have been a sales manager for most of my adult life.
In April of 2007, I was consulting with a truck dealer in Merced, CA, and was in Barnes & Noble getting some sales related books. At the checkout stand, I was drawn to a circular display that had The Secret audio book. Considering I was travelling about a thousand miles a week, I love to listen to audio books and I had heard about The Secret from talk of Oprah liking it, and I had heard some others talk of it, but that was all.
I felt drawn, and so I bought it and began listening to it that day. I listened to it over forty times, and one or two of the four CD’s probably fifty or sixty times. I didn’t just want to learn it, I wanted to become it – to have its wonderful, inspiring, uplifting, empowering messages to become my own without even having to think about it.
Within 6 months of listening, I began a journey that has brought me more joy in one day than I used to have in a year. In fact, in the last couple of years, I have found more joy and more to be joyful about than in all the years of my life prior combined. That was the powerful change I was looking for.
I eventually listened or read books and programs from most of the authors that were in The Secret audio book, thereby expanding this positive transition even further. I didn’t even see the DVD until after I had “read” the audio book probably fifteen or twenty times.
I have since started my own business at age 58, with a partner 30 years younger which is an excellent mix, and have even published a Daily Inspiration newsletter and blog based on teachings that I have learned originally from The Secret and others associated with that project.
Our business is growing and we expect great things as a result, but the best thing for me is the new lease on life I feel, in that feeling good has become my number one goal. I am in gratitude all day long and love my life, and feel 35 instead of 60. I see such a bright future ahead while enjoying every second of the life unfolding moment by moment.
I send this mainly to thank Rhonda Byrne and all the people involved in The Secret project to get this out in front of people in a broad manner, to the point that these teachings are no longer considered secret. I realize that I was attracting this message to me, and I’m grateful for that as well.
I don’t have a million dollars… yet. The goal wasn’t a million dollars, it was a joyous life, and I realized early on in the process that that is worth far more than money to me.
Thank you, Rhonda and all involved. Your efforts and commitment to the process have succeeded in a big way with me. I’m sure that in that, I am but one of many million.
