Not long ago I had sent out an email and I was expecting and hoping for a quick response. The email was of a personal nature and I was kind of obsessing about it – checking my emails incessantly and starting to get very discouraged that I hadn’t heard anything back. Almost two days had passed and I was getting really down. I knew I needed to get out of this slump and so I started re-reading The Secret and trying to put it back to use in my life.

I happened upon the part about time being an illusion and everything happening simultaneously. Usually this concept is much too abstract and overwhelming for me to even begin to entertain, but for some reason this particular time it really struck a chord with me. I felt almost drawn to it. I couldn’t shake it from my mind and I didn’t know why. After reading through the book again I decided to close my eyes and visualize that I had received an immediate response to the email. I focused on the feeling as if I had already received it, and went on acting and believing I had. My thinking was that feeling this would bring about a response. I stopped obsessing about it and soon stopped thinking about it at all. Later that day a friend asked me to forward her an email. Not even thinking about the email I had been so eagerly anticipating, I opened my mailbox. My eyes were immediately drawn to an email about 2/3 the way down the page boldly marked as unread. It stood out because for the past 2 days I had been checking and reading my emails non-stop and had most definitely not left any unread. It was the email I had been waiting for and inexplicably not only was it dated the same day I had sent the original email out, but it was sent 7 minutes after. I have no idea how it happened, or what that means. All I know is The Secret works. It definitely works.
