“Dale, you’re so smart!” “If I had those brains, I’d be the next Einstein!” This is some of the praise that I received in 9th Grade. But I also received, “Dale just doesn’t apply himself.” “The kid’s brilliant, and bright, but he doesn’t do the work.”

Things kept declining ever so slowly, and my parents became worried. I realized that I was stuck in a negative frequency, and I needed to get out. FAST.

I began to give love to everyone I met, and helped those I loved. The energy grew and grew until it spread to everything else, including grades. They literally skyrocketed, and I proudly came home with a report card of straight “A’s” and several recommendations of classes I could take at high school.

The Secret helped me feel the love that surrounded me when I cared for others, and that pure, positive energy blew away the road blocks in my “Road of Life”.
