Gratefulness.

Submitted by: ESH Heitch

Papua New Guinea

I go by ESH to most of my friends, work mates and loved ones so I have always used ESH in all my accounts online I am currently in the job that I believed I manifested. I am married with two kids, a daughter, 15 and a 9 year old boy. I heard about The Secret in 2018. I vividly remember the dates.

My story is one where I started using The Secret through journaling. When I first learned about The Secret, I watched The Secret movie and then I read the book, The Magic.  After that, I started doing The Magic Practices, which are the 28 days of exercises that are in The Magic book. Sometimes as I did this, it would make me think to myself, is this really going to work? I would feel weird sometimes saying affirmations to myself but I kept at it. Like so many others have already said, What can it hurt? What do I have to lose if I just try it?

I will always remember my very first three dreams or wishes that came true with gratefulness and pride in myself for being able to achieve them. Here they are:

1. I started writing about my pay rate going up to a certain amount and after some time, in 2018 my pay rate did indeed go up to the exact amount that I had written down. Though it came at a gradual increase, I was happy that this came to pass. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

2. Both my husband and I worked as contractors in this large mining company. Our wish was to have one room to ourselves as a couple because we had been living in separate dongers there. When we asked about it, we were told to provide a Statutory Declaration form to the Accommodation Team to show proof of our marriage, which we did. We presented this document to the team but we were advised it was not possible to move us into a one room situation as we are not employees.  At that time we were contractors, not employees, and priorities were given to the employees of the company. This prompted me to write about it every day in my journal, saying thank you to an infinite God for rearranging time, and resources, so that the Universe could make this happen. This was in 2019 and on January 01, 2020, I was hired as an employee of the company. Then on February 05, 2020, using my status as now being an employee, I submitted our Stat Declaration again to the Accommodation Team. This time we were moved into one room even though my husband is still a contractor. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

3. As I said in number 2, I worked with a mining company. I started in 2016 on November 03 as a contractor to the company. It was not until mid 2018 that I started writing about me being an employee and not a contractor with the company. My writings were about me being an employee on a “FLY IN and FLY OUT” roster. The employees’ roster was 2 weeks on the site and 2 weeks off. Sure enough, on January 01, 2020, I was made an employee and now I got to fly to and from home every two weeks a month in my job. These all were gradual, not sudden changes, but I am forever grateful for having achieved them.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
