Inspired To The Next Level.
Submitted by: Carl Henderson Sr
Lakeland Fl.I am a jazz musician and blog writer. I love all things dealing with self-improvement. I am a husband to an amazing wife and a father to six grown children and I have 15 grandchildren.
My journey is one of many blessings that have been found in difficult times. My first knowledge of and hearing about The Secret was in 2013 while I was in massage therapy school. Our instructor played the video for us during our second week of class. It was so inspiring that I watched it every weekend during those nine months of school. After that, I followed what I learned from watching The Secret and propelled my life and business to levels I could only dream of. I was set financially, my home was secure and my family was growing and prosperous.
Then we had a sudden turn of events. In May of 2016 my wife had a stroke and I was devastated. I lost my focus and everything went haywire. By January of 2017 she had 2 more strokes and had to have surgery on her brain. The surgery left her with a feeding tube and a trach tube so she could breathe. I became more depressed and frustrated. I had lost my focus.
Then one day while I was in the room with my wife, I told her that we will make it through this and that I am going to love her back to health. I began every holistic thing that I could find to help her. When I was really feeling down about everything, a distant friend reminded me about the law of attraction and The Secret. They reminded me about my thought process and asked me of my dominant feelings while I am thinking these thoughts. They said to me, “If you want to change your life and situation, change the way you speak and feel about it. Learn to be grateful for what you do have.”
This blew my mind because I had been pushing and fighting so much to help my wife that I had forgotten about just being grateful and thankful. So I made an executive decision within myself that I would speak positively about our health, our life and our homeland family.
So for the past 8 weeks or so I have changed my daily focus to feeling gratitude for everything. I now see my life changing day by day. The biggest change is that now my wife breathes on her own normally, without having to have the trach tube in her throat! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
This has inspired me to take it to the next level. My wife will be walking and talking within the next six months. I feel extreme excitement and joy about this. I talk with my wife daily about this and encourage her daily with positivity, affection, and affirmations. I am already starting to see a change in her overall well-being and attitude. Stay tuned and be blessed! Thank you so very much! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
