How I turned $5 into $1,200

Valdosta, GeorgiaJust a free-thinker living life inside out.
I discovered The Secret last December after I made a conscious choice to focus more on living life the way I wanted to instead of following the crowd. It has been a great adventure as well as a devoted task to reprogram my mind and thoughts to improve upon my life.
Everyday is a new day for me, and focusing my attention towards wanted things as soon as I awake in the morning has been a wonderful tool that has empowered me in many amazing ways. Choosing my thoughts and feeling the best I can in each moment. I just want to say that it feels good to see so many people reconnect as one with a focus to live inspired lives instead of living life the old way. This site is a pure blessing to me and so are the people who share their stories.
With that said, the other day I was in desire need for some extra cash. So instead of asking for the exact amount, I stated that I wanted $1,000 so I could pay a bill and have extra money to shop with for me and my girl. Two days later, which was a Saturday, I drove pass a small garage sale where I noticed two beautiful pictures leaning against a table. I made a block and turned around to ask about the pictures. When I got out of the car, there was a little girl in the front, so I asked her the price of the two pictures. She opened the door to their home and peaked in to ask her mom the price on the pictures, then her mom came outside and said that she wanted $5 for both of them. I agreed on the price and loaded them in my car. I thought that they would look good hanging up in my home. I was so stoked about the wonderful deal I got.
Later that night something told me to Google the pictures, I found out that they were worth over $600 each. The pictures were so rare that you can’t find many online anywhere. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I so excited about the other desires I have launched that are about to manifest.
Thank you to everyone who post stories on this site, you are all really a great inspiration to me and many others as well. Thank you and I love you all.
