I am a nineteen year old student living in New York City, and was first introduced to The Secret at the tender age of twelve. For the last eight years, The Secret has been reappearing and disappearing at the most opportune moments in my life, but for the last six months I have made a habit of watching the movie almost every day.

Since I was first introduced to The Secret, I have never doubted it’s power, and I have manifested some incredible things in my young life: I have pulled $60,000 out of thin air, I attend one of the greatest universities in the world, I run one of the most successful businesses owned by anyone under twenty years of age in the United States, and my inner circle of friends include some of the most successful artists and musicians in the world.

While the Law of Attraction is simple for me in terms of accomplishing goals and making money, my health has always been a struggle. I struggled with eating disorders since I was fourteen, my insomnia was terrible, and my hormonal cycles were totally thrown off. It wasn’t until one day that Mr. Assaraf’s words in The Secret really hit me one day in December 2012: “Everything in the universe is made of the same thing, whether it’s your hand, whether it’s the ocean, or whether it’s a star.” Hearing these words made me think that, if I could attract all of this success on a material level, then, couldn’t I attract the same kind of feelings of goodness and joy on a level of health? Finally, when I was able to see every aspect of this Perfect Universe as THE SAME THING – whether it was paper money, an article written about me, or one of my hair follicles, I was able to start turning things around.

Instantly, the symptoms of my eating disorders disappeared. I woke up the next day shrouded in perfect health. I started to say, “I love my body. I am perfect. I am perfectly me.” I started to FEEL that. I started to become grateful for so many aspects of my body and my health that I was unable to ever see before. Within a 48-hour period, I was asked to model for one of my favorite photographers, Ryan McGinley. I know that this was something that would have never happened if it weren’t for me FIRST coming to terms with my perfect self. If I couldn’t see my perfect self, then no one else, especially a great artist like Ryan, could see it either.

I am so happy and grateful to have been introduced to this knowledge and to now be able to apply it to EVERY facet of my life. Thank you all! May you all see the glorious perfection that lives in every one of your body cells. Because it’s THERE. I KNOW it. I live in a world now where I love and adore my body and where I get to wake up and say “Thank you!” to the Universe for being who I am.
