Get Off The Horse Technique

San Diego, CALiving a life of laughter, love and miracles.
I want to share a gift from God and the Universe.
In the office where I worked, the co-worker that sat next to me was an extremely negative person and we were only separated by a glass partition. Every day was a challenge and usually by the end of the day, I went home drained and in a bad mood.
After reading The Secret, I applied the “Get Off The Horse” technique in dealing with my co-worker. Needless to say, I was getting off the horse quite often while at work, and it did the trick and I started going home in a more positive mood.
One day my co-worker had a new tube of hand lotion. She was talking to me and asked me if I would like to try her new hand lotion. I said, “Sure”. She said, “Let me get some on my hands first.”
I sat in my chair watching her. She had the tube in her hand trying to get some lotion to come out but nothing was coming out. She turned the tube up towards her face and looked down at the opening of the tube and said, “Why isn’t anything coming out?” With her face still close to the tube she started squeezing and at that moment the lotion squirted out of the tube onto her face and up her nose.
It did not get into her eyes or harm her in anyway and she looked at me with such surprise and shock. I asked if she was OK and she said she was fine, just embarrassed.
Then I just started laughing.
I could not help myself. She started laughing and soon we were both laughing out loud uncontrollably. So much so that our supervisor came out and asked us what was so funny.
Here is the gift: The Universe gave me the gift of laughter from a negative situation to carry within my heart and use when I need to laugh and lift my spirits. To this day, when I remember this moment, I start laughing so hard, and trust me, afterward I am feeling such happiness that magical wonderful things happen at lightning speed.
So always remember to remember that good things can come from a bad situation. The trick is to really look for the good and carry that gift in your heart.
Blessings of love, laughter and a truly miraculous life to all.
Thank you to The Secret Team, I hope this brought a bit of laughter to your day.
