When I first read about The Secret from ‘The Secret to Teen Power’, I was a little skeptical. It seemed so bizarre finding out that I am, in fact, in control of everything that ever happens to me. But despite all the questions that circled my brain, I decided I had nothing to lose by trying it.

I recently completed my final exams for 12th from school and I decided to use The Secret to get the results I wanted so badly. It first happened during a Political Science test where we had to identify a certain country on the map. I hadn’t had time to revise my maps so I guessed the answer. I wrote down the first answer that came in my head and made myself believe that it was the correct answer. At one point during the test, I was tempted to change the answer but I didn’t let myself and kept telling myself that the answer I had given was correct.

When I walked out of the exam room that day and discussed the paper with others, I found that it was a question that many people had struggled with and the answer I had written down was apparently the correct one! This is just a small way in which The Secret worked for me.

The main thing happened later. It was after I had taken my psychology exam. One of the things I wanted most was to score a perfect 100 in this exam.

Though on the whole I am a good student and I worked very hard for this paper, the test didn’t go as well as I had wanted it to go. There was a question I hadn’t even studied for and I ran out of time in the end. Incidentally, I kept hoping that this particular question would not be asked! Somehow, I finished my paper and wrote whatever I could remember for that horrible question. All in all, it didn’t feel like I was going to get my 100, though I really, really wanted it.

Despite this, I didn’t allow myself to dwell on the thoughts of getting anything less than 100. Every time any negative thoughts popped up, I told myself that I was getting nothing less than the marks I wanted and I visualized this outcome. I imagined my name and picture in my school magazine with the caption ‘Topper in psychology’. I imagined taking the certificate in front of my entire school with someone announcing that I had topped psychology with a 100%. I visualized all this and kept my spirits up. I believed I was still going to get my 100 somehow.

And I did! I was over the moon when I saw my results. I jumped and screamed and just felt so utterly happy that I got the 100/100 I wanted, even though it seemed so very unlikely.

I am truly grateful for my marks and my excellent results. I am also grateful to The Secret which helped me stay positive in times of difficulty and helped me manifest great results in my exams. I am facing a big challenge today but I know in my heart that everything will work out. I am thankful to The Secret team and to everything and everyone who has helped me. Sharing my story is my way of expressing this gratitude.
