I Am Officially A Bentley Girl!
Submitted by: Tracy Chen
Boston, MABorn and raised in Beijing, China, now a graduate candidate for Bentley University Graduate School of Business.
As an international student in the United States, Iâve had a hard time finding full-time employment that would allow me to continue working and living in the US, even with a degree from a top 50 university. After my graduation, I spent months being unemployed and unhappy, living in the fear of being deported back to China.
I must have attracted my current boyfriend into my life; I’ve known of the law of attraction for quite some time but had failed to practice it in real life. He refreshed my memory of the law of attraction, and gave me faith and motivation to practice it.
Together, we decided that for me to stay here, I needed to go to grad school; and that is yet another wonder of the law of attraction. During the process of researching and preparing for applications, I rediscovered my passion for math, analytical thinking, and learning in general. I truly wanted to go to grad school! And for some reasons, the Business Analytics program at Bentley spoke to me the most. So I decided that I will go to Bentley, that it WILL happen.
I studied hard for the GMAT, and went from the first diagnostic exam resulting in 490 to my actual score of 650. Before I got my results, I just believed that I would get a 650, and mind you, out of all three steps of manifestation Iâve always had the hardest time believing. But somehow I believed this time, and I got exactly what I predicted!
So after I submitted my application for Bentley University McCallum Graduate School of Business, I practiced believing over and over and over again. I wrote the same sentence a million times until it filled 16+ pages in my notebook: “I am so happy and grateful that I am accepted into Bentley, thank you!” I talked to my friends and co-workers (Iâm working as intern and part time at two different jobs) about financing my graduate education; I would practice writing Facebook posts expressing gratitude upon my acceptance; and I had my boyfriend call me “Bentley Girl” at every chance.
Finally, on the morning of March 5th, 2015, after I had woken up at 4 in the morning to go to the gym, finished my workout, and gotten to the office, I calmly opened up the Bentley portal, and it said: “Congratulations! You are now a candidate of Fall 2015âs Business Analytics program at Bentley McCallum Graduate School of Business. If you wish to accept the offer, please respond to the Graduate Admissions Office by Thursday, March 19th, 2015.”
I was ecstatic! I felt a bit dizzy for a moment, and was overwhelmed by joy! I did it! I finally did it! All on my own! And I succeeded this time practicing the law of attraction! I felt an immense sense of pride, fluttering in my guts, it almost felt like that I could be flying! I immediately pulled up the drafts that I had saved for all my social networks, posted them, and called my boyfriend.
The moment I heard his voice, I bursted into tears. I couldn’t speak for a good minute because my voice was so broken and I was so out of breath, and then I yelled at him as if we were having our most devastating fight: “I GOT INTO BENTLEY! I GOT INTO BENTLEY!” He laughed so hard! He laughed at both my childishness and the fact that I got into Bentley, and then he yelled back at me saying “IâM SO PROUD OF YOU! IâM SO PROUD OF YOU!”
At the end of this all, I just wanted to express my gratitude towards everyone who has made The Secret public to everyone. I have seriously benefited from it, and I hope everyone here reading this will have even more faith in the Universe and in themselves! And the living proof of the law of attraction lies in the fact that I had written this the night before the decision was made available to me and yet it all came true!
I truly hope that this can be of help to those of you who are having trouble finding the ways of practicing the law of attraction and that you live in abundance for the rest of your years because you deserve it and will have it all, you will!
