Laughing Out Loud!!!!

Submitted by: L'Sonja Evanz

West Haven, CT

I am wow...31 yrs young. Funny to even say it. lol. I was an on air radio personality for eight years and now I am acting and producing shows. I have a beautiful daughter. She's ten, and her name is Alexis.

A year and three months ago my life changed. You see, I was living good – I had a show on a small radio station and was making waves, I was earning a nice living interviewing celebrities connected with people, and tried to make a difference in peoples lives, telling them anything is possible. Funny thing is secretly I wasn’t living my life the way I really wanted to either. I love radio, however my dream has always been to be a successful actress, producer, and basically great person!! I decided though, that stability and safety would be better. Just stay here in the country even thought I hated it.

Then my mother introduced me to The Secret. I watched the DVD and was like YES!!! This is my proof! I have always thought there is no difference between me and those rich people those that are happy.

This is where everything gets weird.

Then, I lost my job. When I tried for unemployment my boss heard I had another job and fought me on unemployment. In fact he even kept my last check until the labor board made him give it to me. I lived in a nice house I rented, however it was right on the side of the highway and if you had no car you were trapped – no way to walk. Oh yeah, after I lost my job I lost my car… repossessed. Then of course I had to move in with my Mom. I tried to get benefits but because I didn’t get unemployment I was going to get penalized, and only receive 210 dollars a month – going from 1500+ a week to 200 a month. So I said no.

I kept watching the DVD every day – two three times a day. I visualized so much during that time, for three months. I saw myself living in New York going to auditions, getting into productions with ease, attracting attention. I saw myself on a billboard in Times Square, aw myself laughing with people, having fun, getting on VIP lists to hottest nightclubs, getting in for free, living the city life. I saw my daughter safe and sound with my mother and I was able to help take care of them.

Do you know how tricky it was at first to know those material things were leaving me, and that I had to move in with my mom and start over, and not feel like a loser????? To keep my Faith in knowing that the universe loves me and wants me happy, I hung out with friends as much as possible, and danced into the wee hours because I never had the time before with my career. Even though I was flat broke.

It is now July 2008.

Everything I visualized is coming true… At this very moment I am at a new friends house in New York, hanging out playing Rockband. I just got cast in my first off Broadway stage production in Manhattan at THE PRODUCERS CLUB!!!! OMG!!!!! I’m singing, acting, and dancing! First Principal role! Months ago I was walking down the street and got told to walk into a national commercial that is playing now. I got cast into background for two major movies. Got interaction with lead roles in small films I got into. I have a conference call in a week about producing my own show for internet/TV.

And the billboard? Wow! One day I was walking in Times Square coming from a production going to a screen test, and this man stopped me and asked if I would get my picture taken. I was like, sure. He said, it’s going right there. And pointed to the big screen in the middle of Times Square!!!!! A car promotion. Crazy!!!!!

I had an apartment that had the balcony I saw in a short-lived vision I had… in New York.
Every day I live the Secret, from wanting a cup of coffee to seeing myself here in New York living the get-discovered part. What I now realize is that money hasn’t been involved at all. I asked freedom, and I have it. I have spent wonderful time with my daughter, and my mother and I are closer.

It’s time to dream BIGGER!! Thank you!!! For confirming that I am the universe – the magic is me!!!! I cant wait to see what happens next!!!!
