I am thrilled to share my first Secret story here. I’d like to thank everyone who has shared their stories here and inspired others. I’ve been practicing the teachings of The Secret for about a month, and most recently, The Magic. Early on in my learning, I asked for several small things as “evidence” that the law of attraction (LOA) is real and I received them. That convinced me to continue learning and applying the principles in the books. However, it wasn’t until yesterday and today that I was amazed by almost instant, concrete, proof that The Secret works, cementing my standing as a firm believer.

Yesterday, I woke up, did my gratitude practices, and began work. Although I felt okay, for some reason, I felt more anxious than usual. Nothing specific, just “off-kilter”. I felt that my work day wasn’t beginning smoothly, even though I had tried to maintain a positive vibe as best as I could. Upon opening one of my emails, I saw that I had been assessed with a possible error on one of my tasks. Of course, my heart sank. Before I discovered The Secret practices, my default way of thinking would be instantly negative in such a situation. I would obsess, and then my anxiety would increase throughout the day and affect every other task. After reading the email, I remembered to stay positive. I made the conscious decision not to obsess or give the email any further attention at that moment. Instead, I flagged it for later review, and using a technique from “The Magic,” I decided to “sprinkle magic dust” on my keyboard, computer monitor, that particular email, the sender of the email, as well as my supervisor and myself. Then, I thanked the Universe in writing for a magnificent outcome to the issue and forgot about it for the rest of the day.

Later that afternoon, just as the work day was nearly done, I got another email from the same department, informing me that they were removing the “error” status. It worked, and I was ecstatic!

Today, I remembered to do my gratitude practices as soon as I awoke. For some reason this morning, I decided to tell myself, “You are going to get some unexpected money today.” Then, as I was writing down my list of 10 things to be thankful for, I had a very strong compulsion to write: “I am ALREADY RICH in Health, Love of Family and Friends, and countless blessings.”

About an hour later, on my break, I went to check my personal emails. In my inbox was a message from Barnes and Noble, out of the clear blue sky, informing me that they were giving me a $10 credit to use towards any Ebook or online purchase. My eyes nearly fell out of my head! I actually started laughing and immediately wrote down my thanks.

There have been other small instances of evidence that the LOA is working for me, but today just solidified everything, and the amazement and joy I felt today are indescribable. The icing on the cake is that now I can buy “The Power,” which I have been wanting for a week!

But above all, since starting The Secret practices, the one major thing that has meant more to me than anything else is the near total eradication of my anxiety disorder. I had suffered from anxiety and depression for many years, and for a long time, managing it had been a struggle. Deep down, I always knew that I alone had the power to begin healing, but I didn’t know how to start. I kept thinking I would only begin to heal when I found the right “outside” source of information. But since learning about The Secret, The Magic, and the power of the LOA, I have been given the exact tools I had been searching for. I learned to look inward at what I had been putting out emotionally, and that alone was a revelation. It has literally changed my life, and I feel joyful and radiant. I wish this exact feeling for every single person out there. To all of you, keep believing, keep practicing, keep loving. It is real. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
