Dallas/Fort Worth, TXI have always used positive thinking in one form or another, but never all the time as I should. I have live all across the South Eastern US. I have attracted situations that I would not wish on anyone. I have survived near death on 7 occasions. I was always unhappy, and when a friend asked me once if I loved myself, my response was I do not even think about me. But I am very happy to say that I was loaned The Secret to read by a friend the last week of July 2008, and I started reading the first week of August 2008. My journey has been so amazing since then that I cannot believe what a difference the book has made in my life. I have read many positive attitude/self help books. However, it wasn't until I read The Secret that everything finally clicked with and for me.
I have been living in the Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas area for almost 9 months. This was my new beginning with a clean slate. For the time that I had been here it was challenging for me financially, as I am a single lady.
I read The Secret the first week of August 2008 for the first time (I have read the book 4 times and now listen to the soundtrack every day and watch the DVD every night since Sept. 25, 2008).
On September 12, 2008, I had to fill my car because Hurricane Ike was due to hit Texas the next day. The day before gas was $3.28 per gallon, and in one day went to $3.69 per gallon for regular gas. I filled my car with gas and it took $40 for 3 quarters of a tank, and I have a small car. After filling my car I made the statement to myself and the Universe, “I want the price of gas to come down to $1.75 per gallon or lower.”
Well, here in my area gas has dropped down to $1.55 per gallon. I now wonder why gas was so high… not a single filling station has lost or gone out of business due to my request. I had told a couple of my friends so that I would have witnesses to what I asked for, and now they cannot help to be amazed how low gas is, and they look at me with different eyes now that I have proven my faith and showed them that they, too, can have, do, or be anything they want.
I am now shooting for bigger and better goals for myself in this life.
Thank you so much Rhonda for making The Secret so clear, that everyone, even a genius like me, can understand what the Secret is and how to change my life.
