Take charge of your life

'Life'

It's the most simple 4 letter word that has the biggest meaning to all of us. It's the biggest life that you have received, from time, from universe & it's important that you make the best of it, because cribbing is the worst thing you could ever do.

You are meant to live your life, not crib about your life. Always remember that change is the biggest constant in life & that you should accept it the way it comes because accepting change can ensure that you are in the flow with life & thereby making it the best.

Any change big or small is always taking you towards the goal of your life incase you are ready for it. Incase you have a goal & are taking effective actions to reach it, you are making the best choice in the world & indirectly you are taking charge of your life which is the best thing you should be doing to live a life of your dreams.

Never settle for anything less than what you rightfully deserve, not desire. Desires could be less worthy as well at times, but deserving is all about what you have earned with your hard work & dedication. It's the absolute reflection of who you are as a person.

So go ahead & take charge of your life now!

My story began in 2013 when my life took a dramatic change. I began to get bullied at work. I was so naive I didn’t see it happening and thought if I just kept my head down things would be OK. The more I tried, the more I annoyed the bully, and the worse it got.

Eventually I was suspend and then later sacked, as I’d cracked and walked out of her office as I couldn’t take anymore of the verbal attacks. At the time I was devastated. I’d lost the job I loved in a school I really enjoyed working in, and to top it off, I lost the colleagues that I thought were friends.

By March 2014 my mental health had deteriorated and I’d been diagnosed with PTSD. My thoughts turned to ending my life on more than one occasion.

At the time, my 2 daughters lived with me and treated me to getting my nails manicured at the local salon. There a young lady named Ashley introduced me to The Secret. She was so positive and enthusiastic about it that I felt compelled to look into it. As it turned out, my sister had given me the book and DVD some 3 years earlier and I’d just put it in a cupboard.

I started to read the book but could not hold my concentration so I watched the DVD. After about 3 viewings I started to take in what I was being told and began to use it in my daily life. I wrote down my thoughts of what I wanted and how I saw my life in the next 12 months. I also began cleaning my closet (life) of negative people who seemed happy that I’d hit rock bottom. I began to focus on the year ahead.

The changes in my health and outlook was apparent to those who were closest to me. Being more positive and starting each day grateful that I’d woken up, was the start.

I’d wrote a list of my thoughts and put them on the fridge. My youngest son thought I was going mad and that I was being stupid but I kept the faith. Other family members laughed at me and thought I’d really lost the plot.

In December 2014 my life was good, my mental health better and one of my thoughts had come to reality as I’d moved to a much nicer area. However, the best was yet to come. On the 12/30 I won the lottery!! This enabled me to achieve all my thoughts from my list on the fridge and many more.

Come February, I began to look for employment and a super job came to me, which I loved and took a great amount of enjoyment from. It was not however, in teaching, which I wanted to get back doing.

It was May 2015 when I first stepped back into a classroom and the feeling was amazing. I feel very blessed as my life has completely turned around. I awake each morning with a smile on my face and cannot wait to enjoy great the day ahead.

Power Of The Mind, You Can Always Get What You Are Looking For!

Republished from The Secret

I’d lost my watch that I held very dear to me about three years back at school.

Only a few months before the incident, had I started reading The Magic with an open mind. I was very excited to know if it would work.

The first thing I did was find my copy of The Magic book. I made it a practice to visualize myself having gotten the watch back on my wrist, feeling as joyous as I could for having gotten back my watch and telling my cabin mate about it. I also told her that I’d get it back in three days.

After a day of thorough searching in all places I could think of, I did not find it but I still hadn’t lost hope. My friend had just gotten got a missing book back from a cupboard at school, although I was nowhere around that area when I lost my watch and they don’t usually put lost objects in that cupboard. However, I just knew it had to be there.

I had to talk to my teacher before I could scrounge the cupboard for it.

To my delight it was right there! It was found on only my the third day of LOA practice!

However trivial the incident might be, it shows how powerful your instincts are and how they’re guided by your visualization.

To my friend, from whose book I learnt about gratitude and LOA, I shall forever be grateful!

When Realization Hits!

Republished from The Secret

Thank you, thank you, thank you Rhonda and your team for hitting me in the head and saying hey, you already have everything, just listen for your answers and look around and realize it!

Let me make it short.

2013.

No job.

Recently passed out of the worst breakup.

Suicide attempts, self abuse, cutting myself with sharp objects.

No money for rent for my dream apartment which I had manifested without realizing it.

Pressure from parents to get back home, out of love as they knew I wasn’t happy living miles away from home with no one to talk to.

Medical issues with no health insurance so I had expensive medical bills.

Depression.

And, I was about to be deported!

2014.

Yes! I got a job and I love what I do!

The one friend I had moved in with me, so all expenses were cut down by half, and a persons face to see when I get back from work.

I got more than enough money for paying off all debts, around $8000.

A person who loves me.

Amazing health and I got health insurance.

I am still in the country, no deportation and I am in the process of becoming a resident and still in my dream apartment!

My parents got to understand my stubbornness to be independent.

And it’s only 2014 June! And you know what?

I had no idea the transformation I had gone through in this short time until my old boss asked me “So how’s life?” and I was like, wow, life is awesome!

I love The Magic. I always keep doing day 1 and day 2 and sprinkle Magic Dust. I read Hero and now I am listening to my calling. It’s loud and clear.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Hoping to write more stories and I hope this helps someone. 

Create Your Life!!!

You are creator. You are creating your life every second. Your life is virtue of what you create every moment, whether it is positive or negative you are creating it. You can never say that Mr. X, Y, Z are creating your life because that will be like playing with the truth, the real truth, because all of that is false. It is you, just YOU.

Life doesn't happen by example or instance, it is all because of what you thought or believed in or thought about combined with your actions. You are the biggest gift of universe & you are supposed to live it that way, if you wish to make a name for yourself. What I mean to say is that if you are the biggest gift, you have bigger talents than anyone else on the planet & you have something that no one ever had or will ever have. You need to understand & believe that to bring the best out of you & share it with the world.

Here is a SWITCHWORD exercise.

BALANCE is a switchword helps you create stability, because until you create stability with what you have & how life's circumstances are, you cannot create the life you wish or strive to have.

Once you have created balance or peace with what you have, you will start to be on the path of getting what you want. So get ready to be where you are heading & CREATE YOUR LIFE.
