Today’s success story shows how the author used the Secret and the Law of Attraction to turn his life around. He was riddled with debts and stayed in a rented house, but with the LOA he changed all that.
Firstly, I want to show my eternal gratitude to the whole team at The Secret for the magical things you have given me.
My story starts back in 2004 when we were living in rented accommodations with two kids, paying a hefty amount in rent each month with no prospects of ever owning our own home. We both worked full time jobs. With child care costs and daily living expenses, we never seemed to have money left at the end of each month to put away, let alone go on holiday or try and put a deposit together. It didn’t seem to matter how good my sales month had been; we were just treading water. All of this started to put a strain on our relationship as my wife saw friends get their first house or upgrade to a larger one. All while we just kept paying the landlord.
In 2007 my wife came back from the supermarket and she gave me a copy of this book called The Secret that she’d purchased. I had a brief look and then put it on the side and continued with my normal daily life. A few days later however, my wife said to me you’ve got to read this, I think it’s what we need. So reluctantly I picked it up and started to read.
As I began to read, and I mean really read the book, and take in it’s true meaning, I started to understand how this knowledge to could turn our lives around.
We started there and then to live by The Secret and use The Secret principles. We developed a vision board and put all the pictures of the things we desired on it. I printed The Secret Cheque and stuck it to my bedroom ceiling where I would be able to see it as soon as I opened my eyes in the morning and before I went to bed each night.
Over the next few months we were able to start saving money for a deposit. We started to de-clutter our rented house in preparation for the house move we knew would happen. We opened ourselves up to all possibilities, and then it happened!
In September 2008 we purchased and moved into our first own home together and by then there were three children. So no more paying landlords and finally something to show for all our hard work.
However, in those next few weeks after moving in and being so happy, we made a big mistake. We stopped practicing The Secret. We thought we were done, we thought we’d cracked the code. Don’t get me wrong, we were very grateful for what we had but we just went back to our old way of living and things just bumbled on for the next few years.
By the beginning of 2011 we were bursting to the seams in the house. The children were growing bigger by the day and needing more space. We had added a dog to the family and it’s fair to say I was carrying a fair amount of debt. Something had to give. And then it did.
Mid way through 2011 I found myself out of work and with only my wife’s salary coming in, things were not so good. We had the ever increasing demands of the children, payments to credit cards, store cards, leased car, mortgage, etc., that we were heading down a fast road to losing the house.
What was happening to us? How had we gone from having this great house, jobs and other material things, to being in this situation? And then I remembered The Secret and so I started to practice again daily. I started to live by The Secret again, to turn our lives around and I managed to find myself a new job which I started in February 2012.
So things settled down and we managed to get the mortgage back on track and pay the other monthly bills. All was OK. This time though I kept practicing The Secret. I purchased The Secret movie, I printed more cheques, I said daily affirmations, I wrote down daily what I was grateful for and so on and I just knew there was something bigger around the corner for us.
In December 2012 I was diagnosed with Malignant Melanoma and had a tumor on my neck which was Stage 3 Cancer. However, did I let this get to me? No. I did not. I just kept on practicing The Secret as I knew and truly believed all would be well. I knew there was something bigger around the corner.
It was at this point that my wife pointed out we may be able to claim on our life insurance policy for my diagnosis under the critical illness cover. So we applied and supplied them with all the information required.
Five weeks later I was paid £250,000.00. This was the exact amount I had written on my first ever Secret Cheque back in 2007! Wow!
The money enabled us to pay off all our debts including our outstanding mortgage, go on a couple of holidays, give some away and have some savings.
Fast forward to now. We have since moved to a much larger house, have a very happy and healthy relationship, three beautiful children and still the smelly dog. At this point I would like to again say thank you to all at The Secret, as without this book having come into my life, I am not sure where I would have been.
My next goal/vision is to bring The Secret and it’s principles to as many people as possible and I am currently working on ways to do that. Keep positive, be gracious in all that you do and keep the faith.
