It’s been a crazy few months but a few weeks ago a friend recommended watching “The Secret.” The movie about the Law of Attraction. It changed my life. That night I felt so silly because after watching it it became so clear that I did need to take responsibility for the things happening around me.
Let me tell you about the next day.
I woke up and the first thing I did is go through and list off the things that I am grateful for.
Next, I listed out the things I wanted or wanted to happen.
Then I started my day. This was a Sunday and I was having company over to have a little jam session. to prepare for the party I needed to stop and do a little grocery shopping. I picked up everything I needed including 2 bottles of Ginger Ale. Now I should include, although I doubt words could describe, that Ginger Ale is my absolutely favorite drink and picking up a couple of bottle was a common thing. Now, while I was checking out, for some unknown reason I felt compelled to put the bottles of Ginger Ale back. I can’t explain it, I just thought, “I don’t really need these today.”
As I was driving home I remembered I had a gift certificate for CVS, so I thought I’d stop in and get a couple more things for the party and get my Ginger Ale from there. I walk in and the first thing I notice on the first shelf is Peanut Butter M&Ms, and they are on sale “Buy 1 Get 1 Free.” I snatched up two bags and go and get the other items I wanted plus 2 bottles of Ginger Ale. I get up to the check out counter and the cashier tells me that they had just got in the larger 2 liter Ginger Ale bottles and they were on sale for cheaper than the smaller 40oz bottles. Crazy.
I left with a huge smile, and while not exactly what I expressed in my thoughts earlier that morning certainly made all the more powerful simply because I maintained a positive attitude all day.
next up…$100,000
