The Start of Something Amazing
Submitted by: Catiemeg
North Yorkshire, UKI am a 40 year old woman who is about to turn her life around thanks to The Secret - thank you. x
Firstly my thanks to Rhonda and the team for the wonderful word they are spreading around the world, you truly are a gift to humankind. I’ll try and keep it brief, but having read all the other inspirational stories on here I feel I have to tell the beginning of my own.
A couple of years ago, my then boss and I were talking about ‘positive thinking’. I had read many books on the subject since the age of 19, but never really put the knowledge into action. She told me about a book called ‘The Secret’ which I hadn’t heard of (or so I thought). I didn’t give it much thought until a few days later when I was clearing out my sitting room and under the sofa found a copy of ‘The Secret’ – I was utterly astounded. I don’t remember buying it although I am a slight addict to 2nd hand book shops and can’t walk out of a charity shop without at least 5 books so I must have bought it without even registering it!!
I have always tried to think positive but have suffered from depression for 18 years so find it difficult when the demons set in, but a couple of months ago I decided to re read The Secret and have been turning my negative thoughts when they come, to positive, grateful ones. A few small great things happened, but the most wonderful one happened yesterday.
One of my beloved rescue kittens had been missing for 4 days, very out of character for him, and I was really beginning to panic. So I came onto this website and read all the stories regarding pets. I wrote out all the recommendations that people had put on saying that I was grateful for the safe return of Ernie.
So yesterday I printed out 50 fliers and posted them to the local shops and houses on my street. Within 6 hours I had a phone call saying that he had been found in one of my neighbours garages – I was ecstatic and so thankful, it also turned out that the family were due to go on holiday today for 2 weeks, so I can’t imagine what would have happened to him if we hadn’t found him last night.
I am now going to make my first vision board as I am totally convinced that The Secret beliefs DO work. An alteration in your thinking, an alteration in your gratitude and a whole belief in yourself and the Universe really does work. An attitude of gratitude = magnitude beyond belief.
Do it, keep at it, keep believing and you will reap all the wonderful rewards. I will keep you posted on more progress but in the mean time, thank you thank you thank you xxx
