For the last few years my family’s finances were dismal, continually going south. I read about “The Secret” in a magazine and searched for the book to no avail, until, one Sunday in early April, whilst shopping to buy books as a gift for my cousin’s daughter, I asked the sales assistant if they had “The Secret”… only to be told that it was so popular that it sold out the day it was delivered. My name was added to an order list and I was told by the sales assistant that they would not have the book in store until June/July. I desperately wanted to own the book. The next morning I received a phone call at work from the bookshop to say that they had a book for me and I could collect it at any time! I arranged for my son to collect the book for me 2 or 3 days later. I read the book and it dawned on me that some of the things that happened in the past were obviously as a result of my thinking. There and then I decided I am changing my way of thinking.

I then went to the “The Secret” website and found endless interesting and inspiring writings. I bought “The Secret” DVD and after watching it, I ordered another 8 copies to give as gifts to family and friends.

I wrote down a list of things I want. At the time, I needed $5,000.00 in order to pay a taxation debt which was due at the end of April, however I had miscalculated and asked for $5,000.00 by 15 May 2007. On 15 May 2007, I arrived home from work and found a letter addressed to me from a source where I had in the past made purchases. The letter informed me that I have been selected to go into a sweepstakes draw and the prize section I have been entered into is for a $55,000.00 cash prize! The letter was dated 9 May 2007 and I received it on 15 May 2007 – THE DATE THAT I ASKED TO RECEIVE $5,000.00!!! The final draw for the cash prize is on 12 December 2007 and I know and believe the prize is mine, and I am so happy and grateful now that I have deposited $55,000.00 into my bank account. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. This is no coincidence. This is faith. This is “The Secret”.
