I’ve been using the law of attraction since I was in fourth grade. I’ve gone through phases of using it and not using it as much, but I’ve usually been quite a positive person because I grew up with these teachings in the back of my head. However, this past school year was one of the toughest years of my life. I’ll keep this short and sweet, so I won’t go into much detail, but the past year, I’ve had trouble staying positive when I was faced with so many difficult situations at once. Recently, though, I picked up The Power and started reading again. I decided to apply the teachings to my life. Here’s an example of how it’s been working for me!

I recently got my first job working at a grocery store downtown, which is totally awesome. I’ve met some great people there, including a guy I started liking. I’ll call him T. I didn’t think anything would happen because one of our first conversations was about how he liked another girl who worked with us. I was a bit disappointed but I didn’t let myself be upset about it. The next few times I worked with him, I noticed he started calling me ‘cute’ pretty often and would talk to me a lot more often. This continued for a couple of weeks.

Last Friday, I was working the morning shift, which I was not used to. I usually work the night shift. So going in at 7 AM wasn’t the best idea of fun for me, plus a lot of my friends weren’t working that shift. I was pretty upset for the first hour, but then I told myself to stop all of that negative thinking and to use The Power! So I pulled out a piece of paper when I had the time and wrote down a short list of what I was thankful for and the things I wanted to happen. I was leaving for vacation in 4 days, so I wrote down that I wanted to get T’s number before I left. Then, a customer showed up, so I slid the piece of paper into my pocket and continued working, not thinking much about the paper or the goal I had written down.

Two hours later, I was standing at the register, bored out of my mind. I saw someone walking up to my register, so I got ready to scan their first item, but to my surprise, it was T. I had never seen him come in outside of his work time before. We started talking, and then guess what? He asked for my number! I gave it to him, and we talked for a minute. Then he said something about me being so much younger than him. He’s four years older than me. I asked him why it mattered. He said, “Hmm, I’ve never dated someone that much younger than me before.” Then he gave me a smile before walking out of the store. I freaked out!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

He texted me a few hours later that day, and we’ve been talking a lot since then. Oh, we went on our first date a couple of days ago. I’m on vacation right now, and now I’m waiting for him to call me.

Thanks for reading my story! Just have patience. That’s the thing I always have trouble with, patience. However, once you master that, everything will work out for you. Just know it is going to happen. And be happy! A lot! Positivity! Yay! Good luck on your adventure!
