One thing I have always been passionate about in my life is succeeding and wanting more for myself. I had a 4.0 average in school up until high school.

For the last four years of my life, I have struggled with social anxiety. It definitely interfered with my school performance and my daily life. The negative thoughts that I had took over my life, and I felt as if I had no control over it. It was like I was alive, I was moving and breathing, but I was not living. This all had a horrible impact on my grades.

By senior year I decided to start fresh and get rid of the bad thoughts in my head, but the feelings started to come back all over again. About a month before my expected graduation date, I was failing almost all of my classes. I was all alone and no one knew what I was going through. I thought that there was no way I would graduate because I had no time to raise the grades.

After I took my final exams, I thought about The Secret. Every single day after that, I started to visualize myself walking across the stage on June 7th 2010. I set nail and hair appointments, and I also went to go get a new dress. I had so much expectation of graduating.

When I went to my graduation rehearsal and they handed me that cap and gown, I just cried. It was the first time that I really put the law of attraction to the test. I did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
