Billings, MontanaRecently divorced, mother of 3 grown children and one new grand baby... discovering the power of the Secret
I work for a major airline in Billings, Montana. I was at a point that I dreaded going to work each day… it had come to a point that all I could hear every day was the employees talking about other employees behind their backs, and some of the employees being so nasty with customers. I couldn’t stand it, and worse, I felt I was becoming one of those people and I didn’t like it.
I vividly remember driving to work each day and saying, I don’t want to have contention, I don’t want to talk about people, I don’t want to be nasty to customers. I read the book by Eckhart Tolle – A New Earth – and it started changing the way I dealt with people. I started not responding in the same way. I started trying to be nice, no matter what, and when people got angry, I didn’t, and when co-workers started talking about others I wouldn’t get into the conversation. I was telling one of the employees about my new discovery, and he said, if you enjoyed that book, you would really love the book The Secret. A few days later he gave me that book.
I read it from cover to cover in a day. It was just exactly what I was looking for, what I wanted. I found so many things that had happened to me… were happening to me… and finally understood why. I started living the Secret, and little things kept happening. I bought the book for each of my children with the hope that they will discover the Secret too. I bought myself the DVD and I watch it often.
My work environment immediately changed. I had people telling me, if agents were all so kind and helpful, people would be lined up to fly our airline! All kinds of little things started to happen. So many I can’t name them all.
Recently I was up early trying to figure out how much I need for a trip to see my family over the 4th of July. I was figuring out the gas and hotel… I figured it was about $500.00. Well, it is amazing. I have played the lottery maybe 10 times in my whole life. But, a few days before that I bought a lotto ticket and I told the guy as he handed me the ticket….I always win, I am so lucky. I then forgot about it until I was to empty my jean pocket to wash them a few days later. I found the ticket and thought, well, I ought to at least check to see if I won. You guessed it. I won. On June the 11th my ticket was the winning number of $500.00. I found out on Friday the 13th. Which I always considered a lucky day for me, as my son was born on a Friday the 13th. It was just so amazing, I still can’t believe it. Well, yes I can! The Secret is changing the way I live and I am a better person for it. Thank you!!!
