Thank you, thank you, thank you is all I can say for the change your book brought about in my life.

My name is Karen Fourie, and I am from South Africa. For many years, I was unhappy. I lived far from our nearest town on a farm until I got married at the age of 19. I was married for 21 years. I had very unhappy moments, not always, but most of the time.

In 2004, I moved into town, and things got better, but I still had this unhappy feeling. In 2009, my mother gave me the DVD of The Secret! I was so lost in the turmoil of being unhappy and trying to keep other people happy that I could not grasp The Secret at all. I heard what they said, but I could never do it.

In 2010, my whole life spiraled out of control, and I decided a divorce was the only way to get away from the situation.
After my divorce, I read as many books as possible that had anything to do with self-development. I searched for happiness for a long time.

In 2013, my friend picked up a book in a bookstore for the second time and told me to read it. That was it! It was The Magic! Little did I know my answer to happiness was in this book.

The third day I was reading the book, everything went from bad to worse. My life was so scattered that I tried to read the book twice. Only after the second try did I realize what was so wrong in my life.

I read that book, and then I followed it to the “t” and did it with as much feeling as I had inside of me. From walking in the mall on holiday, just saying the words thank you, which did not really mean anything to me at that stage, to starting to thank as many people as I could and feeling thankful for what they did for me.

Today, I can honestly say that I did not know the true meaning of gratitude until I read your book. I got a spark of inspiration and started my own blog: Small Efforts Daily. This was all because of the inspiration I found from your books, The Magic and The Power. I’ve set out to help thousands of people to find their true happiness.

I want to thank you. I can’t express my gratitude to you enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

One thing I know is that I was emotionally dead for nearly 21 years, and you rekindled the fire in me, making me want to share it with as many people as possible.

Thank you very much.
