My Life, Forever Changed
Submitted by: Sherry N
Emporia, KSI am just an average wife, mother, and high school physical education teacher. I have always had a good life but now it is great. Read on...
Two years ago in Feb. I saw Oprah’s show with Rhonda Byrne. I went out the next morning and bought the book. I sat down that evening and could not put it down. The next morning, I went back to the store to buy three books for each of my boys for the upcoming Valentine’s Day. Imagine that, there were only three books left and I got them all! My life has been forever changed. I couldn’t possibly tell about all the things that have happened to me in the last two years, it would take to long to write – however, I will highlight a few.
I wanted to be thought highly of for my professional skills (I am a high school physical education teacher) by my co-teachers, administration, school board and professors from our local university. A couple of months after I read “The Secret” I was inducted into the local university hall of honor. My picture was put up on a billboard on the interstate and I achieved my national board certification which can be a grueling process. I achieved this on my very first attempt. I’m still receiving accolades for that!
I had always wanted a Toyota Avalon, limited addition, fully loaded but could not afford it. Less than 1 yr after I read the book, my husband surprised me with this exact car. The interior and exterior color were the exact color I would have chosen (he didn’t know this).
I get close car spaces all the time! I used to get in the longest checkout lines all the time. I used The Secret and now I end up in the shortest checkout line!
I am much happier, more peaceful every day!! I use The Secret to maintain a wonderful, strong marriage!!
Oh, I cannot forget this….I have been trying to drop 15-20 pounds for years and have gone on numerous diets. The day after reading The Secret, I changed my way of thinking and lost the weight. It was so easy; I didn’t count calories, nor did I stress over losing weight. I got down to the 115 lbs. that I had been trying to get to for years.
I use what I call the “gift of The Secret” every day! Every day on my way to work I turn off my car radio and this is my “grateful” time. I use this time to go over everything I am grateful for. I put the audio book of “The Secret” on my MP3 player and when I jog every day I put my player on random. Each day I hear excerpts of the book. It is my daily “fix” and I look forward to it. This reminds me daily of the key points and helps me live this each day.
I am so happy and grateful for the gift Rhonda Byrne has given the world by writing this book as my life has been forever changed!!! Thank you.
