I Cry For Joy!
My husband and I saw the film in March of 2007, and we were thrilled. I bought the book and read it and started applying it. I had always wanted to visit my country of Argentina, which I have not visited in 17 yrs. My financial status did not allow me to do so, but…

I don’t think I have had more then $20.00 in my wallet in the last 3 years. I lived paycheck to paycheck, and if the kids got sick, or they needed to see a doctor, I was in trouble. I lived in fear every day. 3 months ago my Mom sent me The Secret and…

I was the type of person that if I didn’t see, wouldn’t believe. But since my husband saw The Secret film he kept pushing me to believe. The first time I went for my driving test I was telling myself and everybody, “I KNOW I WON’T PASS IT”. And I didn’t even get tested because…

It’s been 3 months since I last talked to my mother. Before she went to the United States, we had an argument. We always clash about so many things. Though we have misunderstandings, I love her dearly, because after all, she’s still my mother. I always chat with my sister via Yahoo messenger, who is…

My mother was a drinking person ever since I could remember, a serious alcoholic that had been in and out of rehab centers, jails, and hospitals. It often seemed she had her own sense of direction to which she could never quite find. When I was about 28 and hadn’t seen my mother for some…

Last year (2007) my wife and I were faced with the climax of a battle with the US government over the charge of fraud and a resulting visa issue. Let me preface this by saying that we’re two people with no criminal record; Akiko’s never even had a parking ticket in her life! At the…
Read More →Pregant With My Miracle!
When I was 17 I had surgery to remove an ovarian cyst on my left ovary. When the surgery was performed they also found that I had endometriosis, which causes a lot of scarring on my reproductive organs. My Doctor told me it would be very hard for me to conceive. Throughout the years I…

I work in a field where seniority counts every step of the way. Due to this type of environment, the shifts I work are 95% night shifts. I never saw my husband, we rarely had dinner together, and we would just see each other in the morning and at night in bed (which was never…

Some dear friends gave me a copy of The Secret DVD in late April after listening to me complain that my spouse (who is otherwise a great guy) is always so negative about everything, and how I have to constantly pull myself up and be positive to counteract his attitude’s effects on me. I took…

I am happy I came across the book of The Secret through my sister-in-law to be (I love her brother and am positive that he is going to marry me one day). Anyway, it made me realise one thing. I once lived according to the Secret, and I was not even aware of that. My…

I wanted to write a short note to say that I have just started the book, and I’m getting signs already… little hints to tell me to keep going after the first few pages. I’ll keep it brief. After reading that Rhonda has a daughter called Skye, I paused and thought, “If I have another…
Read More →Candles are a girl’s best friend!
To begin with, I love home decor. I love painting and using different accents to “jazz” up a room. I love all sorts of candles. From scented to non-scented. From colored ones to plain white ones. I love them all! About two weeks ago I complained to my mother about not having any to light….

I finished reading The Secret in three days, and immediately from the first day began to apply the practices. For the past four years I have dreamed of getting custody of my son so that I would have him during the school year. Even while reading the book I began to focus all of my…

I was raised in a very abusive family – all categories apply. I’ve already used the Secret instinctively to repair many injuries to my heart and mind, and am excited to see accelerated progress after watching the movie, and the extra perception that gave me, to make my life closer to the dream I have…

We have always worked very hard to provide for our children, and now that they are all grown we are faced with the possibility of losing our home. I received The Secret CDs from a co-worker’s wife about a month ago. My husband & I started listening to them together in the mornings, rather than…
Read More →Listen & you will get inspired
I recently went on a trip abroad, and picked up The Secret book to read on the plane. I was so moved and inspired by what I read, and most of the time I reflected on my life and saw the reasons for the ups and downs in it. Later I managed to get hold…

Nearly 2 years ago I was traveling with my sister. We went on a long trip and met some great people along the way. We were in New Zealand, and one of the people my sister met, a photographer, asked her if she wanted to join him and be his assistant (voluntarily, but food and…
Read More →Believe it!
I am a believer of the Secret. God must have created the law of attraction for everybody regardless of religion, race, or anything else. Most of what I wished for or asked for came true! Life has been a wonderful journey for me. From a simple parking space to wanting a vacation, I will get…

Looking at other people’s newborn babies, I longed for my very own. My partner and I lost our first bubba very traumatically about a year and a half prior, and I was eager to have another baby. However no luck. The longer it was taking to become pregnant again, the more I became stressed that…

Hi. I’m Jeff, I’m from Brazil. Well, as many people in the world, I grew up without my parents. My parents broke up I was still a baby. It was very hard for me and my brother (he was very sick at that time). We grew up without roots. And I used to think that…
