To those who need motivation and inspiration in believing.

I am a student applying to study in one of the top universities in Canada. At first, I did not even feel a bit of worry about getting into this university, as I am confident with my high school grades. Two weeks ago, I received the reply from that uni. It hit me so hard knowing that I got rejected, and I was in utter despair.

I’ve tried writing emails to ask for appeal and reconsideration, but no one even bothered to give me a reply. I watched ‘The Secret’ quite a while ago, and at that time, I have no choice but telling myself to believe that I can change something about it. Out of despair, I started convincing myself that they have made mistake in updating my application status, because I haven’t actually received any official letter from them. I visualized myself getting a big bulky enrollment pack in my mailbox, opening up the envelope, and holding the offer letter in joy.

Few days after that, I saw something in my mailbox, but it was a disappointing small and thin envelope. It hit me even harder this time.

I took out ‘The Secret’ and watched it again, not hoping for anything but to eliminate the sad feelings I had. I felt much better after watching and told myself that I will find my way to be there. However, I was a having hard time convincing myself to believe. I had an option to study in a college located near that uni and transfer to that uni in my 2nd year. So, I went and applied for it. I was determined this time because I know that I really want to be there. I kept telling myself to BELIEVE that when I know what I want, no matter what it takes, I will be there. I started visualizing my life after getting into that uni. I talked to a consultant in my current college about my application and he told me he will try to find out the reason I was not admitted. At the same time, he advised me to do the transfer program.

Few days ago, while I was checking my email, I noticed one from a contact name that I was dying to see 2 weeks ago. Immediately, I opened that email and I couldn’t believe what was in front of my eyes. I was jumping in joy knowing that I got the offer. Although they are not offering me my choice of program but they advised me to do a transfer after my 1st year. I will still have to work on my application as it is very competitive. But, I have the offer now!!! I was thrilled and I could not stop myself from smiling the whole day.

My enrollment pack is on its way to my mailbox now!! I am leaving the country in August. After all this, I truly believe that I can create the life that I want. I see how ‘The Secret’ has impacted my life, and I will continue to believe and use it not only in all aspects of my life, but also helping others to believe.
