Small town girl, big dreams
Submitted by: JC
Thousand Oaks, CAUp until this point I was a single mother of 3 girls, working full time and still just not making it. I had no help from my ex and family live too far. I would say the only things in life I loved up until this point were my girls. I was so tired frustrated and "beat up " by life. I was about to marry a man I didn't love basically as a "help support".
I don’t think I have had more then $20.00 in my wallet in the last 3 years. I lived paycheck to paycheck, and if the kids got sick, or they needed to see a doctor, I was in trouble. I lived in fear every day.
3 months ago my Mom sent me The Secret and told me out of all her kids I would truly be grateful for this gift. I cried the whole way through it. I did not put it down, and read it every day on lunch breaks, at night before the kids went to sleep, any time I could. I needed to know the book in and out verbatim.
I knew that the job “game” would keep me in debt and away from my kids, so I didn’t put my attention on a new higher-paying job. I thought very clearly of the life I wanted to lead – where, what, exact details. And then it came to me. I’m not sure why, but I got a million-dollar idea to write a movie script about my wacky life and the law of attraction. I had no idea how to write one or how to sell it, but I knew my story was off the charts funny, and as I wrote it I felt joy, gratitude, and love like never before. I knew the universe would send me the how.
Within 3 weeks I was at a party and met a producer who had read the book The Secret and loved it. I told him my story and he set an appointment with me to meet his team. We are in the works of getting this movie made.
I drive by my dream house every day, because in my mind I already own it. My story is still in the works, but I own my own life and am making what some call the impossible happen in record time. I will have financial freedom and free time, and that’s all my dreams wrapped into one.
