I have been waiting for an opportunity to write my story here. And when that opportunity came, I simply never got the time to write it. Or maybe I was too lazy to write it.<\/p>\n<p>I set a goal to get admitted to one of the prestigious colleges in India, and I achieved that goal by applying the LOA. Here is my story.<\/p>\n<p>In December, I took the entrance exam for the college I wanted to get into. I never studied for the exam as I never got the time to study since I was working at that time. But I managed to get decent marks and qualified for the next round. The next round was in February, and I cleared the Group Discussion and Personal Interview (GD &amp; PI), too! It all went well. And then we had to wait until the results were out. I was sure about getting into it because my\u00a0 GD &amp; PI had gone really well. They put out a total of 4 merit lists. The 4th was the last one, and my name was not there on any of the lists.<\/p>\n<p>I was religiously following the LOA, but it still didn&#8217;t work. I was devastated. I was also going through an emotional time because my boyfriend decided to leave me. But I still believed that I would get admitted into this college, and I didn&#8217;t know how. And that is what is needed, guys!! You don&#8217;t need to know how you will get it; you just have to believe in God and yourself.<\/p>\n<p>I called the college and they had put me on the waiting list. There were only two people ahead of me. I was third on the list, and they said if the two people didn&#8217;t take admission, then I would be preferred for it. Now I was sure I was going to get it!! And, I finally got it!! Those two people decided not to take admission! God bless them! Thank you, thank you, thank you!<\/p>\n<p>I had promised myself that I would write my story here as soon as I got admission because it was the stories here that inspired me daily to stay positive and inspired all the time. Well, I got the good news about my admission in May and I am writing this two months later. The reason behind me realizing what I had promised about writing my story here was &#8216;my love&#8217;. My boyfriend had left me, saying he couldn&#8217;t concentrate on his work because of our constant fights, but I always loved him, and fights are a part of relationships; I always believed that<\/p>\n<p>Anyways, I got back together with him during the admissions, and we were happy. But after two months of patching up, we are again no longer together, and this time, I lost hope of getting him back. We are no longer in a relationship, and it made me realize that maybe because everything was going well, that I somehow got carried away.<\/p>\n<p>I was scared that everything was going too good to be true. I was afraid he would leave me again. I felt he was back with me out of sympathy, and this feeling caused us to drift apart. I was always scared of breakups. I used to pray that he never left me, even when everything was like a fairytale.<\/p>\n<p>I was praying for what I didn&#8217;t want, and that is what happened! I got what I didn&#8217;t want. Instead of thanking God for bringing a wonderful guy into my life, I was scared all the time that I didn&#8217;t deserve such a wonderful guy and such a beautiful relationship, and that is what happened.<\/p>\n<p>I realized that maybe I took it too lightly. So today, I decided to write what I should have written two months ago.\u00a0Now, I am going to bring my boyfriend back and make my life as perfect as it was earlier. I believe he still loves me, and he will realize this, and we will live happily ever after. I will write my story here again very soon when everything works out.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you, thank you, thank you!\u00a0Love to all The Secret lovers. Make your life a beautiful journey. God bless you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi everyone, I am so thankful to God, all the people connected to &#8220;The Secret,&#8221; and to Rhonda and her team.
