The Magic, Be Grateful!

Submitted by: Jacqui S

Sydney, Australia

A beautiful woman living the most amazing life.

Firstly, I would very much like to say thank you to Rhonda Byrne and the team who created The Secret. It is such a motivational DVD that I have watched so many times that I can just about recite it word for word! It absolutely works, but it was not until I came across the book, The Magic that I became a real believer.

‘Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you to Rhonda and her team for showing me The Magic and thank you to God and the Universe for allowing me to be guided down this path.

Please believe me that this works. I read The Magic, and while reading it and doing the practices, I thought that this book was literally going to send me crazy with the amount of ‘work’ that I had to do to think about what I was grateful for. As I have already said, I have seen The Secret so my belief was to be positive, and it would all come to me. But it took me years to discover The Magic, and when I did, that is when it all happened.

Just this last week, I walked to work and was feeling thankful and grateful for absolutely everything. I was grateful for my feet for walking me to work and my hands and fingers for holding my juice. I was grateful for the fact I slept in an amazing apartment with an electric blanket the night before when there were so many people sleeping in the park. I was absolutely grateful for everything.

The week before, I’d been stressing about my finances. I have a few expenses at the moment, including friends’ weddings, university fees, and textbooks. I did not know how I was going to afford to do everything I wanted to do.

That very day when I was feeling so grateful,  I received almost $500 owed to me from three separate friends. I did not even ask them for the money. They all just transferred it to me on the same day. One of my friends had owed it to me for months, and on that exact day, she transferred it into my bank account. Money was no longer a problem.

I had been seeing a boy for a few months and had lately been getting frustrated that I hadn’t heard from him in a couple of days, and he was becoming distant. That same day that I just stopped to be grateful for the amazing things in my life, he messaged me, and we went out for dinner that very next night and had the most perfect evening.

I had a hen party on the weekend. I was feeling anxious about going to this party where all these super skinny girls would be there, not to mention a celebrity. I went shopping on Saturday morning to find the perfect dress. I kept telling myself that I would find the most beautiful dress and I was visualizing myself in it. As I entered the department store, I sprinkled some Magic Dust over myself, and with that, 20 minutes later, I had found ‘the dress’ and was walking out of there.

The rest of the day I just visualized having the best night, and all my anxiety of being heavier than the other girls just went away. That night, I had the most amazing time, and so did my beautiful friend who was getting married. At the end of the night, the celebrity even asked me to get a cab home with her. Then she asked me for my number and gave me hers saying if there was anything that I ever needed, to give her a call.

All this happened like magic. It is absolutely real. Magic and the law of attraction absolutely work! Just ask yourself, ‘How bad do you want it?’ Spend that time with yourself being grateful and thankful for what you have, and you will get anything you desire.

I started small so that I could believe I could actually have what I wanted. But now I know I can have anything that I want, and that I deserve to have an amazing life. Everyone deserves to have the best possible life, so please take the time to value yourself enough to believe that you can have it all.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
