The Secret Found Me
Submitted by: Sam B.
Los Angeles, CATrying to find a career right out of college.
I cannot put into words how grateful I am to have found The Secret. The impact that it has had on my life is truly indescribable and it has saved my life in multiple ways.
I found out about The Secret about 2 and half years ago. I unfortunately was laid off from my first out-of-college job and was so depressed. No one, especially at that age, can prepare you for the uncertainty and sadness you receive when you find out that you are laid off. To make matters a little worse, I had just moved into my new house and signed a lease so you can imagine how many stressful issues I was dealing with at that time.
That same day I had found out this news, I decided that I didn’t want to be alone so I traveled an hour to my old college where all of my friends were at. It was then that one of my best friends told me about a book called The Secret that she heard of. Mind you, at this point I was still embarrassed to let anyone know my recent news so they all had no idea what I was going through. To them, it was just a random mid-week visit. That same day, I decided to stop by the bookstore and purchase it.
Fortunately, I was given a whole month before being laid off and during that time, interviewed with a lot of companies. Like The Secret says, I envisioned my old director giving me a hug and congratulating me on not one but multiple offers. I saw her sitting me down and helping me pick out which opportunity would be best for me. I remained positive every single day and quickly changed my mind set every time I started feeling defeated.
In just 2 weeks, I had received 3 job offers!
I was ecstatic. No one, not even my old co-workers, thought that something like this could happen so quickly, especially during a recession.
Currently, I am at that same job and have been promoted twice in just 2 years. Moreover, I have some amazing people that are now some of my best friends. Every day I remind myself that everything happened for a reason and am truly blessed.
So thank you, Rhonda! In more ways than just my career. It is because of you and your team that I know that life is supposed to be full of bliss rather than just content. It is because of you that I wake up so grateful and with such an appreciation of life.
I am happy to say that that same best friend who introduced me to The Secret and I have now been deemed “ambassadors” of The Secret to the rest of our friends. It is amazing to see all of the great things we have manifested. So for those who have doubt or fear, know that The Secret works! It may not happen overnight but it truly is a miracle.
So remember to be patient and most importantly be positive. You have control of your life and you can truly make life anything you want it to be.
