I was first introduced to The Secret in 2006 and tried to live that way, but I was in a difficult time of my life. At that time I struggled with anxiety, eating disorders and the difficulties of healing from being sexually abused by both my parents since the age of 2. So at that time, I couldn’t handle being grateful and happy and thankful.

But 1.5 years later I went backpacking in Australia, New Zealand and Asia for 10 months and everything that I had hoped for on that journey came true. I got a fun job, I got my scuba diving certificate, I went bungy jumping, I went skydiving, I scuba dived with amazing sea creatures including sharks ;), I went snorkeling with whale sharks, I met amazing people, I had money for all that I wanted to experience and great things happened. All because I was happy, joyful, living life a day at the time, and being grateful for this amazing journey I was on.

When I got back I started using the law of attraction “properly”. I got a boyfriend and we moved in together. I got accepted to photography school. We got the loan to buy a car together. We got a big apartment with plenty of room for kids. I got accepted to school of economics and when I found out that it wasn’t really me after all, I got accepted to the school of occupational therapists at 7 am the day school started. The same day I was supposed to do a re-exam in law and economics!

Shortly after that my boyfriend and I broke up as friends. He wasn’t treating me nice anymore and we had grown apart. I got a new apartment and got the internship in Norway that I had applied for. While in Norway I got to see the Northern Lights almost every night for 3.5 months. I went to the North Cape. I went paragliding. I went hiking in national parks. And I never ran out of money.

While I was up there I read The Secret again and wrote down some more wishes for the near future and they came true:
I got an apartment close to city centre and my university.
I was offered a motorcycle I had dreamed of for a long time.
I got a great amount of money that made it possible for my to buy the bike.

Now, after 6 months of feeling down and a bit sad, my dreams for the future are to get a boyfriend and future husband. To pass my exams with honor. To got to South Africa this Summer with my sister. To get 20.000 Dkkr within 30 days from yesterday. To go to the Maldives and scuba dive with manta rays in the fall of 2013.

And it will all come true because I believe in it. I have written it down and put it on the wall where I see it everyday. I’ve begun writing my gratitudes every night and doing my best to feel happy most of the day 🙂

There’s a great life in front of me and the joy and fun has already started 🙂
