I Asked And Believed I Received!

Submitted by: Dorina Groves

Phoenix, AZ

Blessed with the DESIRE to Inspire, Encourage and Succeed! I posted my location as Phoenix because I AM speaking and living as though I am already there but geographically at this moment, I am in NH!

What you think about, you bring about!! When you speak as though you already have what you want, it’s YOURS! —

I was so grateful to have discovered The Secret when I did. It was when I wanted to open my own coffee shop at a specific location in Phoenix, a mile from where the new FBI headquarters was relocating.

I KNEW it had to be mine, it was all I thought about, dreamed about, hoped for! In February of 2010 I took a picture of the location I wanted to open, put it in my Dream/Vision book and wrote September 2010 on it. I spent days, weeks and hours believing and visualizing it as mine. I would sit in a parking spot in front of it and journal about watching my customers go in and order specialty drinks I had invented.

When I decided I was doing this, I didn’t have 2 pennies to rub together to make it happen, I just BELIEVED I could do it, somehow, it would happen! I opened a bank account in the name of the business, The Coffee Grove. I made a joke to my friend Austin one day, about my plans and the hope for the finances and asked “When does the Bank of Austin open?”

He seriously replied, “Send me your business plan”. Never in a million years did I see that coming! 3 weeks later I had the money and I opened on Sept. 15th 2010.

It is an amazing place that I sold last year to follow my heart of another dream to drive across the US with my favorite quote painted on an RV to Inspire people. I believed the money would come for that dream too, and it did!

I have been gone for a year now and ready to get back to AZ and BUY MY coffee shop back from the person I sold it to. The shop was/is a conduit for inspiring people and spreading the message of The Secret and The Law of Attraction and I AM GETTING IT BACK!

I’ve asked for the car to get home and got that for $200 last week. I’ve asked for the $2500 for the gas and “start over” money to get there and BELIEVE ME, I AM RECEIVING IT and also for the money to buy my shop back. It’s not a matter of If it’s going to happen, just a matter of when!!

And The Magic has produced miracles too.

The day I was practicing gratitude for money was the day I also said out loud in my coffee shop to a friend “Now if I could just get Apple to donate an iPad to me for the trip to Inspire, that would be AMAZING”!

5 minutes later my friend left and a customer came up to my counter and said “I didn’t mean to eavesdrop but I heard you talking about your trip and I am so inspired by what you are about to do, I want to donate an iPad to you for your journey” .

WOW! The iPad was in my hands 2 days later!

I AM SOOOOO GRATEFUL TO YOU RHONDA! Your books have saved my life and made my dreams past dreams come true and are making my current dreams come true!
