What Does A Concussion Have To Do With “The Secret”?
I know that sounds like an insane question since “The Secret” is supposed to bring good things to you. But one thing I learned this week is that whatever you focus on, you get! Last week while I was with my Youth Group at a skating rink, I decided to go for it and get out there on the ice with the kids. Since I haven’t been on skates in a “few” years, I thought about how embarrassing it would be if I fell. Actually, I did that several times during the evening. Well guess what, that’s exactly what I did. About 45 minutes into it I decided to take some pictures of the kids racing around the rink. They were having such a great time and I was thoroughly enjoying them. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of turning around in the center of the rink and trying to focus a camera and you guessed it, my feet went out from under me and my head managed to connect with the ice and give me a whopping concussion. It put me out of service for over a week and gave me an unforgettable headache. However, it also taught me something too. Don’t focus on what you don’t want to happen.
I have been avidly studying “The Secret” for the last 6 months and just like many of you, I realized that I have unknowingly actually used the principles of The Law Of Attraction quite a few times in my life …in many different ways. Fortunately the ones I remember the most are the good ones. I manifested my husband, my daughter, the home we live in, and even 3 very successful businesses. I didn’t understand, at the time, exactly what I was doing. Not until I watched the movie (over 20 times) and read the book. Not to mention all the numerous TV shows and Tele-seminars I’ve watched and listened to, and still do.
I realized that there were quite a few times in my life when I can remember being passionate, excited and exceptionally focused on something that was really important to me. I literally drew those things to me.
I’m very sure most of you have done the same thing. Think back to a time in your life when everything was going perfectly and all your thoughts, feelings and focus were on one particular thing. You were actually practicing the “Law of Attraction”. At the same time, we draw the not so good things to us too, once again by what we focus on. Have you ever thought about being in an accident and then had it happen (like me on the ice!)? Or how about taking a trip and wondering what is going to go wrong? And wrong shows up. Worrying about being late to an important appointment and there you are, late. It’s the same thing.
Knowing what we know now with the introduction of the movie “The Secret” wouldn’t you like to bring only good things into your life? Think back to a time when everything was in perfect harmony and all your thoughts, feelings and actions were focused on what you were doing or wanting to accomplish. Perhaps it was something you did as a child in school or in sports. Or perhaps another time in your life, when you were really excited and passionate about what you were doing, like getting a certain job you wanted, or finding the right boyfriend or even the right husband. When everything felt just right and you were feeling great about everything and everyone and nothing could go wrong.
Wouldn’t you like to be able to duplicate those feelings and those actions so you could live in that kind of harmony every day? It is possible, more than most of us realize. In fact you can literally change your life by changing how you think and feel about things. Just be sure you are focusing on the “good” things you want in your life. Remember that old adage, “what you think about, comes about” or “be careful what you think about for you will surely get it”. Now we finally know why that happens. So think good thoughts, put those thoughts into feelings, ask for what you want, be grateful for what you already have and make way for new and wonderful things to start coming to you. And if you haven’t seen “The Secret” by all means put it on your list of things you absolutely MUST do. www.thesecret.tv
