Gujarat, India.I am a student pursuing my Masters Degree in IT. I am a fun loving, creative and adventurous girl who has a million dreams.Love artistic stuff, love to inspire people.
I don’t know whether this is a proper story or not but I just wanted to post it because I am very grateful to Rhonda. The biggest change in my way of thinking came when I read the book ‘The Secret” by Rhonda Byrne. It is one of the most inspirational books I have ever read in my life. To all the people looking for inspiration and change in their lives, this is a must read this book.
A year ago I was never a person who talked positively or took any thing in a good way. In almost every situation I used to imagine negative situations. For example, if it was my project presentation I would imagine the lecturer scolding us for giving a bad presentation. My philosophy of life before a year ago was “Think negative because it helps me to cope up with the worst possible situation.”. I used to think that if I thought of the worst situation, it will help me deal with the worst circumstance and I will not be broken at the end, as I had already imagined the worst. But now I realize how wrong I was and how stupid I was to think this way.
I still remember the day when one of my friends just told me about how negative I was in my life and she asked me to watch the documentary of ‘The Secret’. The moment I watched it I began to understand the laws of the Universe. Within a week I bought the book and I completed reading it. This book changed my way of thinking. I tried to imagine positive things instead of being all negative in life. I tried to imagine things that I wanted in life and the way I wanted my life to be.
A small example is my painting. I was planning to paint the wall of my room for a year but for some or the other reasons, I never painted it. So then I decided to try the methods shown in the book. I had read in the book that if you want anything just think and imagine that it is already yours and act like that. So after that, every day when I woke up I used to look at the wall and see an imaginative tree painted by me and just feel happy. I did that daily.
After about a month I finally decided that I am going to paint it. I bought all the colors and painted it. I just could not believe it happened. And then after painting it the next day when I woke up I literally saw the tree painted that I had imagined all this while. That feeling was undoubtedly the best feeling ever. I guess when I imagined the tree just for a month, it made my desire more stronger to make it a reality.
This was just a small example. Many more things have happened because of the power of positive thinking. It is not that after reading this book you will never be negative in life or bad things will never happen to you. I mean, life is full of good and bad things. But I am sure that this book will teach you how to deal with negative situations, and will prevent you and prepare you not to be defeated and break down.
I recommend this book to each and every one I meet in my life. Because if it can change my way of thinking, I can guarantee you it can change anyone’s way of thinking. I just had to write this post because I am very, very, very grateful to Rhonda Byrne for writing The Secret. Even if I thank her millions of times, that would not be enough.
