The Secret Works Even If You Don’t Know It.
Submitted by: Michael from California
San Diego, CaliforniaI'm married with four kids and I practice law in California. I have a very successful law practice and I am achieving so much in my personal and professional life, and I attribute it to The Secret.
I “knew” about The Secret before I knew about The Secret.
About 12 years ago, someone I worked with said they saw a documentary about believing in and receiving from the Universe. This was just a conversation in passing but I was amused. So I drew a sketch of what my law office was to look like once I finished law school.
About two years later, I posted on Facebook about this as well. I was just feeling inspired to write it down.
About a year after that, I was really over the job I had at the time, and my boss, so I wrote in my journal how I was quitting my job and how amazing and successful my practice was going to be. I detailed how I was finally going to have professional autonomy, a bigger purpose in serving the community through the law, and how I was going to work toward mastery of the law. More importantly, I wrote down how this was going to benefit my family. How I not only would better support my family financially, but also with my presence and time because I wouldn’t be working for someone else. I also wrote down how happy that made me to know I could provide something tangible and intangible to my family.
Once I passed the bar, I quit my job and began working for a law firm. Within a year, I had quit that job and opened my open practice. This was about 5 years ago.
About three years into my own practice, which was experiencing significant growth, I watched The Secret on Netflix. I can’t describe adequately how blown away I was to realize that I was harnessing The Secret before I even really knew what it was. Between visualizing my office space, the type of practice, and the type of success I wanted, I realized that The Secret worked even without my conscious knowledge! The reason I am convinced The Secret worked is that it worked without me even knowing about it. I only realized it after I had started achieving this purpose.
Now that I know The Secret, I have applied it every day, and it has turned me into a happy, healthy, and successful husband, father, and lawyer. I am grateful for everything I have, and I look and see that I have time to attend to my family, my health, and my community. I also have more money than I could have ever dreamed of. As someone who had lost both his parents and was not left with much of anything, I can’t express my gratitude enough.
I must thank Rhonda Byrne for helping bring this to the masses. I’m so grateful.
