I Changed My Thoughts And It Changed My Life.
Submitted by: Chrissy McKay
Ballston Lake, NY USAI am a single 51-year-old woman who had been knocked down by life one too many times. The Secret helped me shift my thinking and set into motion so many wonderful manifestations. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
The Secret definitely works. I wanted to share my story with anyone who has been feeling doubts. After the death of a life partner, the loss of a job I had been at for almost 20 years, the loss of a beloved pet, amassing large amounts of debt and the sudden loss of my father, I truly had drifted away from the truths of the LOA. I had given up. Hit bottom. My life felt awful. However, I turned that around. What ever you are going through, you can turn it around too.
About six months ago I stumbled across The Secret again. I downloaded the audiobook and then subsequently downloaded the books that followed. I listened in my car any time I was in it. I dedicated myself to the principles of LOA and I am still amazed by what I have been able to manifest in just a few short months.
My home needed a roof desperately. Shingles were falling at an alarming rate. I had no idea how I was going to pay for an expense this large. I began thanking the Universe for my new roof multiple times a day. I pictured the new roof. How beautiful it would look. The protection it would afford my house. I did this daily. Over and over. I felt grateful for my new roof. One day, while driving to work, I stopped at the end of my street only to find a roofing company truck in front of me. I knew it was a sign. I grabbed my phone and took a picture of the truck. A few days later I called the business and made arrangements to have an estimate done. I was completely impressed with their presentation and they were having a spring sale with $1000 off a new roof. They left me with their estimate and a sample book of possible shingle colors I could choose from. I spent the next few weeks driving around looking at the roofs of other houses and businesses as I drove to and from work. I needed to decide on a color. Soon. One day I noticed a building with exactly the roof color I wanted. I drove past this building twice a day, five days a week and never noticed it before. It was perfect. I felt love for this roof every day as I drove by. I still needed to figure out how I was going to finance this. I had no idea, but I kept feeling gratitude for my new roof, all day, every day.
A week later, as I was clearing some random papers from my dining table, I happened upon a couple of two year old statements from a retirement account I had at my previous job. There was no reason those papers should have been there, but I realized that the amount in that account would cover the cost of the new roof. I didn’t have very good credit after my job loss and didn’t feel there was room in the budget to take a loan out for the roof. But if I cashed in what was in this account, I could more than pay for the roof and any taxes and penalties incurred. The Universe was showing me that I already had the money for the roof. A way was shown.
Now, not only am I the proud owner of a gorgeous new roof on my house, I also manifested a five day coastal vacation during a major holiday week that should have had no vacancies. I had some legal issues settled and have a ‘new to me’ car sitting in the garage. My life is amazing and magical now.
Do not give up on your dreams. Believe, believe, believe. Act like you know that what ever you want is already on its way. You have to feel good. Feel happy. Be grateful for every little thing. A big stumbling block for me was not feeling happy for others. Once I changed my attitude to gratitude, things really began to happen. When good things happened to people I knew, I started feeling happy for them instead of looking at the lack in my life. It felt good. What ever you are trying to manifest in your life, just keep believing. There cannot be room for doubt. The Universe will find a way. Blessings to you all.
