The Book That Changed Our Lives.
Submitted by: Ana
HondurasI come from a broken home, where there was lots of physical and verbal abuse. I was taught that money and rich people were corrupt and evil. I was marked as stupid, at school and at home. So at one point, I realized that there had to be more in life and that I had to run far away.
My husband and I got married at a young age, and like most couples, we struggled financially. We both carried heavy baggage. He lost his parents a little too early, and I came from a broken home. So it was just the two of us starting from scratch. But we were together and very much in love.
Since he got his college degree first, we thought that investing in his Master’s degree was the best choice. After that, he would then get a good job, and then he would support me so I could finish college. So he got a scholarship in another country and we moved to pursue our dream. But later, we realized that getting a Ph.D. would land him in a better job. So, he got himself a scholarship across the ocean. When he got his degree, we were so excited to finally execute our plan of him getting his dream job and me pursuing my career.
Well, we returned home with a family of four by then. My husband had with him a Ph.D. degree, only to find out that nobody would hire him because he was over qualified in our home country. It was heartbreaking to get the letter saying: After reviewing your CV, we regret to inform you that you didn’t make it to the next step.
Well, 15 years went by like this. We were pretty much homeless at one point and living in other people’s homes. It was so hard because we got mocked for all the education my husband had, and we had nothing. Then came the pandemic, and we had to find things to do, so my husband and I started reading. We invested in a book app, so we read book after book until The Power just showed up. From the moment we started reading the book our lives changed drastically and even more in the next three months!!!!
Day by day, something amazing would happen. Then, all of a sudden, he gets an amazing opportunity as a consultant in a huge international company! Then 2 weeks later he gets his dream job in the same company but abroad, and with his dream salary. This all happened just 3 months after reading The Power. We moved to our dream home, we got our dream car and now I am manifesting my dream career. Now that we know that it is possible.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
