I’ve always done this!

Many years ago I was about 15 kilos overweight, and I struggled with diet and exercise to remove it. In my darkest times of despair over this, I would think to myself, “Wouldn’t it be good if I could get a short harmless illness that would just slim me down, and I would take care of the maintenance from then on.” Well….guess what happened? I got “strepthroat”, which is a very sore throat, which makes it extremely hard to swallow, and everything tastes awful. It lasted 8 weeks, and guess what? I lost 15 kilos, and I have kept it off ever since. I recently read “The Secret”, and realise when looking back over my life, I can tell many stories like this. In fact the day I started reading the book, I woke up with a song in my head, which was constantly in my thoughts all day. I hadn’t watched TV or had on the radio all day, but that evening I switched on the radio and there was the very song, straight up. That’s when I realised, I could already do it. Thank you to “The Secret” teachers, you made me aware of a powerful tool.
