Gratitude, visualize, and believe..

South Florida and Los Angeles, CASo I always hated going to school. I have friends and it was fun, but I could not stand having to wake up every morning and take so much time out of my day and waste so much energy for sitting in a desk.
I thought of doing online school. Every morning, I go through the things that I am thankful for. I took a few seconds pretty often just picturing me doing online school. Now, before all of this, I knew that because my cousin is doing online school, that if I beg my mom, she would say yes. So the power of believing started from there. I went to my mom one day while we were at the beach having breakfast, and I asked if I can do online school. She got upset and said “No”. I didn’t stop believing because I knew she would say yes if I really talked her into it. A few hours later, I asked her again, she said “You know what? I’ll give you the chance to show me youre going to take it seriously, and then you can do online school.” From there, my belief just got a little bit stronger than it was before.
Now, this was in April and the school year ended in June. Tenth grade doesn’t start until August, after summer vacation, so I was happy and excited. I knew that once I finished off these last couple of months in school, I would have a 3 month summer and then go do online school. I continued feeling thankful that I was starting online school and that this school year is almost finished.
Up until around a month after that, I was getting ready for school and again, feeling thankful that Im doing online school soon. My mom came home and got pissed of because she had a busy morning and my school was 20 minutes away. She ended up saying “You know what, its easier to just put you in online school now and not wait for the 2 months to be over”.
It turned out I started online school way sooner than I planned, and it all happened literally 20 minutes after feeling grateful. <33 The Secret absolutely works. Peace out.
