Feeling Is The Secret.

I had just lost the house that I had been visualizing for four months, I was really confused. What could I have been doing so wrong? How come it did not manifest? It was my house, I thought. I had the address written everywhere with my name on it too. How come it did not work? As if that was not enough, my finances were in a terrible state. I was up to my eyes in debt, facing eviction, could barely get food on the table, let alone fuel to take my children to school. I was really down.

To try and bail ourselves out of debt, we pawned our car for $2000. That was a really difficult decision to make, since if we did not have $2600 at the end of 30 days, our car would be sold to recover that money for sure. I knew The Secret, and it had worked for me plenty of times before in really amazing ways. So why was it not working now?

Now, at the beginning of the year, I wrote down a statement that was meant to guide me throughout the year. I had just read Hero in December, and one of the things I learnt was to never give up. So I wrote my motivational statement like this, ‘I am a hero, courageous and determined, committed and consistent, steadfast, never giving up’. So on one of those dark nights, I took my diary out and read my motivation and I said to myself, you know what? I am not going to give up on getting a bigger, better house, and I am certainly not going to give up on our car.

So I went to The Secret website to read some stories for motivation. One story in particular struck me. In that story, the person mentioned that Neville Goddard was their mentor. And I am like hey, Neville is mentioned several times in The Secret books, why not check him out. I found several books by him and read them easily since most of them are pretty short, but one stood out. It was titled ‘Feeling is The Secret’ That’s when it hit me! The feeling part was missing from my visualization.

It was the 14 of April, my husband’s birthday and our 16th love anniversary. We were facing eviction at the end of the month, and $2600 for the car was due around the same time. I decided that the eviction was going to be a good thing, we would not be homeless, instead, we would move to a bigger better place, close to our children’s school. We would also get our car back. I continued giving thanks and giving love. I started to visualize our new home but this time with plenty of good feeling. I refused to pay attention to anything contrary and started packing for the move.

It was 29 April, and still nothing had happened, but I stayed calm, continued to pack and declare that we were going to a bigger, better house on 30 April. And what do you know? On 30 April, my husband and I received $6901, enough to rent us a really beautiful duplex, get our car back and pay for everything else we wanted and needed!!

Thank you! thank you! thank you! I love my new home so much and I appreciate our car so much more now. Thank you! Thank you Rhonda, for these stories, so inspiring, I know it is a non stop success street from here on out.
