Johannesburg, South AfricaLove blogging, exercising and being with the people I love. I love living a good life and enjoying everything life has to offer.
About 2 years ago my life was in a mess. Through a string of bad decisions and impulsive living I found myself in a situation in which I was totally unhappy and with huge bills. Things got really bad and I lost my car and place to live. I was at place of giving up, not wanting to face the days that I had in front of me. Life seemed impossible to live because of the situation I got myself in.
I knew this is not the life I wanted to live. I went for coffee and stumbled across The Secret at the bookstore. I didn’t purchase the book immediately. However, whatever I had read did make a huge impact on me. That night when I got home, I knew I had to buy book because I knew the contents will help me further.
I bought the book and read it for the first time in 2011. I wanted R 300 000, as it would be enough to pay off the debt, buy a new car and move back out on my own.
I trusted for about 2 to 3 months and nothing happened. I was disappointing but didn’t give up. I knew I had to keep on believing.
I started a new job in November 2011 and got a new car. I was amazed, it was bought for me by a family member. I started a new job, and was able to move out on my own. In July 2012, my cost to company per year was increased to R 300 000.
At first I didn’t realize that everything I wanted had come to together. When I did, I was ecstatic. I didn’t get the R 300 000 in cash but it was made available to me in a different way.
I cannot start to express my appreciation and gratitude on how things have come together in my life since believing and reading The Secret.
Yes, I do have times when I feel like its not going to work out. I quickly get myself together to start believing again.
This is what I deserve and I know I will receive.
