Starting Small

By Julie M
from Alberta, Canada

After becoming aware of The Secret and its' principles, I began to take more notice of when my thoughts became things. After about 2 weeks of paying attention, I realized that not only had I used the Law of Attraction, but I had done it 3 times.

As a single mom I don't have a lot of money at the moment and on a Sunday evening I saw an enticing commercial for Mott's Clamato Juice. I hadn't had that for many years and remembered how I used to love ceasars. I thought..."that would be nice to have"...but knew I wouldn't go buy it just from seeing a commercial. A few days later I went to the local food bank and had hoped to receive some fresh vegetables..something that you don't usually get at this location.

Well...I didn't get the vegetables and was very disappointed, but as the volunteers were finishing up my food hamper, one of them held up some drink cans and asked me if I would drink them. For a moment I didn't say anything since they were holding up a single can of Mott's Clamato Juice!
I immediately said "yes!" while feeling this warm, fuzzy goodness inside.

A few days later while working at a private garden, my employer asked all us gardeners if we wanted any vegatable from the garden. If we did, we could just help ourselves to whatever we wanted to take home! I got fresh carrots, potatoes and beets.

A few weeks later, while feeling rather down about the seasonal end of my gardening job, I realized that I had been so distracted with my finances that I'd forgotten that Remembrance Day was only 2 days away.

I thought that 'maybe I should look for my poppy pin from last year.." then forgot about it. The day before Remembrance Day, I was in a store where a container of poppies were displayed. I looked at them, thought about seeing if I had any change for one, but knew that I wouldn't feel right about just putting in a dime and decided I didn't need it.

I left the store and as I went to get in my car, there on the ground was a brand-new poppy....laying in the snow of the parking lot, completely unharmed!

I know the Law of Attraction works now! And I'm currently working on manifesting "bigger" things to come my way.

"The Secret" Works Faster Than You Do!

By Tammy N.
from Longmont, CO

I have JUST ordered "The Secret" on DVD. I have known about it for several months but never ordered it or even viewed it online yet.

Oddly enough when I sat down at my computer to place the order I thought, "Boy, I wish they took PayPal so I don't have to put this on my already overloaded credit card."

I went thru the check out process and clicked "pay with credit card" and amazingly it went straight to PayPal! I was able to pay with an instant transfer and not put it on my credit card at all!

I haven't even seen this movie yet and already the principles are working! I can only imagine what wonders lie in store for me after I have a chance to watch it!

About Tammy N. from Longmont, CO:

I'm a "farm wife" who lives in Colorado with my husband of 10 years and my furry kids, 4 dogs, 2 cats, 5 horses and 200 cattle!

Pure Intention/Law of Attraction

By Jacqueline van Bierk
from Los Angeles

I've been taking a 90 day self-growth seminar and one of my major goals is to get $250k for my band Otto's Daughter to record the new album, be able to tour, promote, advertise. I watched The Secret and realized how much I'm still focusing on what I don't want and how much I worry about money. I've been looking for investors and haven't had much luck. I told my producer however that I will have the deposit money we agreed on and confirmed our recording date starting August 28th for 2 months. He called me 2 days before our scheduled meeting to ensure I'll be able to give him the deposit$. Not having a clue what's gonna happen, I said "YES, we are on, I'll have the $ for you."

The meeting scheduled with my producer and my possible investor (who is actually my boss) to pay $5000 deposit for the recording of the album went not as expected. The investor didn't show up. My producer's jaw dropped. Normally I would freak out and be mad, instead I thanked the universe for looking out for me and asked my producer to give me 24hrs and I'll get him the 5K. We drove off excited, knowing we need 20k to record our album.
My boyfriend/guitarplayer got 25K with a few phone calls and I got the 5K (loan)that night from a friend of mine. We generated 30k in 24hrs. I recieved the check for 25k and are able to pay my friend back by Sept 1st as agreed.

I had total faith and my intention was clear, I knew I will get it, it was impossible to fail. It felt extremely comfortable and the pay off was huge. This stuff works. I now want to create 50k by Sept 2nd to be able to be in the studio and fully dedicate my time and my energy to my music, writing a new killer album that will be a number 1 album in the world!!!...I'll keep you posted!!! :)

My (first) story

By Nancie Gerard
from Providence, Utah

5 days ago a friend told us about The Secret. We watched it 2 & 1/2 times (The first time I only caught the last 1/2 of it). I started applying the techniques immediately. I turned my attitude around. I took a $1 bill and wrote $1,000,000.00 on it and posted it where I will see it several times a day. I started telling my family things like, "when we win the lottery on Saturday, we can start house hunting in Maui". I told the clerk at the store who handed me the ticket, I'll see you in a few days to claim my prize (now realizing that I will have to go to headquarters when I win big!). I have played the lottery once in a while, but had not won much. I realize now that I never TRULY expected to win. Both my tickets Saturday were larger winners. I expect to be house hunting in Maui very soon! I believe. My life has changed forever. I am enlightened to know the secret. Everything is clearer. I am certain I will have more stories to share soon! :) Thank you for this knowledge!

Write it Down!

By Tyrus C
from South Carolina

Shortly after I married my wife, I started a journal in which I stated my intention to be debt free. I didn't exactly know how I was going to get rid of some credit card debt that had been nagging me for years. I had a truck payment, a motorcycle payment, rent and no savings at all.

2 years later as I am packing up some things in my office to move to our new, home, I came across the journal and read what I had been intending to do 2 years earlier! Wow. Right now we have sold our home that we bought since then, at a nice profit, building a new beautiful dream home, we have 2 great cars that we own outright and we recently had a gorgeous little boy.

A couple of days ago I was shown The Secret by one of my clients and it blew me away. Everything makes perfect sense. I have been doing it all along!

I am so excited to see what we can do now that we know The Secret!

Namaste. Love and gratitude to all.

The Duck gave me money!

By Ralph Q
from Atlanta, GA

I am a senior in college, planning to move to LA after graduation for acting. It had been two months since my tag expired because my vehicle would not pass emissions. I took it to a mechanic who told me that it will cost $1100.00 to fix my car. I had no money in my account and I had already received two tickets with the threat of my car being impounded next time...I started, before bed, to write all of the things i was grateful for, and that my intention was to have a car running in great condition before I moved to LA. A few days later I looked on The Duck (online campus account tool) and in my email I got a letter from the financial aid office saying they have disbursed some money into my account. I looked on my financial aid page where I have looked for the past 2 years for any money I should receive and didnt see anything. I looked on another screen, that I have NEVER looked at and saw that I was due a check for $1455.00!!!! The money came within two weeks, I was able to fix my car, my car runs like it did the first day I drove it, and I just put my new tag on a couple of hours ago! The miraculous thing to this story is, on a list of goals I wrote down months ago I stated that I wanted my car to be in tip top condition, and in January I told my financial aid officer that I didnt want any money dispursed for the summer but to disperse it all in the spring and they agreed. There is no way possible I was supposed to get that money and I still cant figure out where it came from! That's the law in action!

Million Dollar Baby

By Mr. Anderson
from Philippines

My company was the ex distributor of Konica Minolta in the Philippines. Konica Minolta announced to cease operations for their photo imaging division on Jan 19, 2006 due to big losses in 2005. We were on the verge of closing down the company. Truly, a sad day for me and my father…

I started visualizing my company's success in February of 2006. 8 months later, I have acquired distributorship for Nikon, Doli digital mini-labs, KIS Photo Me digital mini-labs and photo kiosks. “Sub” distributorship for Fuji film, paper, inkjet paper and chemicals. Sony products for my own dealer network. I loved Sony products ever since I was a kid and now I’m distributing them. I just can’t believe what’s happening.

Sales are soaring! We even had one buyer who paid in cash for a $70 grand KIS machine. No one pays cash for a digital mini lab in the photo industry. :-)

I went to business trips in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Paris, Singapore and Tokyo in the past few months. It was amazing landing deals and negotiating with my suppliers.

Lately I’ve been getting e-mails for distributorship of some IT products from Taiwan and China. These are well known brands.

I'm now 26 and General Manager of my own company. My father is the CEO/Chairman of the Board. My mother is the Operations Manager. It’s a family affair.

A few weeks ago my younger sister who lives in LA sent the DVD to me. I watched it and realized I had already been implementing some of the philosophies. Now I'm using the secret 101% in all aspects of my life.

I’m currently visualizing Bill Gates and Edward Warren Buffet status. I’m positive one day I will be as wealthy as them and help millions of people through charity and spreading the word.

I hope I don't sound pompous or boastful with my piece. I just want to share what GOD and The Secret has done to change my life FOREVER! I hope my story will help you. If not, then you can just click on back and check out another story.

IMO, the goal of The Secret is to have people jump in on the same wavelength of positive, happy and joyful thinking conclusively making the world a better place for mankind. Imagine what the human race can achieve if all of us applied The Secret. Just imagine…


NOTE: my younger sister landed a role in an independent film which will be released next year. She will also be starring in Will Smith's upcoming comedy series. I'm really proud of her! Go girl!!!


“I think _______ therefore I am _______…”


Warm and Kind Regards,
Mr. Anderson

Manifesting a House

By Katrina
from Concord, CA

After I saw The Secret for the first time, my husband and I began meditating to manifest a new apartment to rent. We sat down two times for 10 minutes and meditated on what we wanted our apartment to look like, what specific features we wanted, and where we wanted it to be. We also thought about it during the day and talked about it often.

Not long after, I met someone through the web site Zaadz.com who wanted to meet with me. He was going to recommend me as a tutor to some of the parents he works with as an elementary school teacher. At the end of our conversation, he mentioned that he was selling his house. I didn't think anything of it because we weren't looking to buy a house.

I went home and I got this feeling that I should email him about his house. When he wrote back, it sounded like the perfect place. I emailed him back and asked when we could come see the place. Just a few hours later, we walked through the apartment and I felt like I was walking through my own home. The owner said he hadn't even put the house on the market yet, and it would be a blessing if we were interested in it.

My husband and I loved the place and decided to make a move. The next day we got pre-approved for a loan and the day after that we made an offer on the house. By the end of the week we signed the paperwork that made us homeowners. We move into our new house in a month.

I absolutely believe in the Law of Attraction and the power of creative visualization, and I plan to use it all the time in my life now.

About Katrina from Concord, CA:

I am a tutor, photographer, and writer who has recently discovered the wonders of the universe.

Instant manifestation 10 minutes after watching The Secret

By Darren Wegkamp
from Salt Lake City, UT

I always knew the Law of Attraction works for everyone, if they know how to use it. I knew that what you think, you become. But I really had no idea of the awesome power behind it, and how great it can actually work.

I have been dying to watch The Secret ever since it was released, but never could find the measly 5 bucks to watch it. Then today I found I had exactly $4.95 left on a prepaid debit card, and immediately used it to pay for the video. No second thoughts. Already, The Secret was working for me, before I'd even watched the movie! I had wanted so bad to see it, that the universe made it possible.

So I watched The Secret tonight, broke down in tears several times from being moved so much, and tried to absorb all the information at once. I picked out the key points that really struck a note with me, and started thinking about them and how I could utilize them.

About 10 minutes before the of the movie, an idea materialized in my mind seemingly from nowhere for a website I could create (since I'm an avid webpreneur). I closed the Internet browser when the movie was over, and went to see if the domain name was available. It was. Problem was, I was 50 cents short for the registration fee. But I didn't dispair. I was determined to buy this domain TODAY. My desire was so strong. All of a sudden, I found myself on a site that was running a special for domains for $6.95. I was able to purchase the domain and still have a couple bucks leftover.

This may seem like something small, but I'm not finished yet. After I bought the domain and worked on my other websites for a few hours, I logged into my online banking account and saw that $20 had been refunded to my card at midnight. $20 I had no idea I would be getting back. This $20 covered the cost I'd paid earlier for the domain, and to watch The Secret.

The point is you can achieve or obtain anything you want, big or small, using The Secret. Any doubts I'd had have been dispelled.

The Secret works. In everything, for everything, for everyone. Trust in the power.

About Darren Wegkamp from Salt Lake City, UT:

Having traveled the world my entire life, I have experienced many different cultures and found they all have something in common. The energy, the force, behind all living things. It doesn't matter who you are, where you live, where you come from, the laws of the universe work the same for you as they do everyone else.

Unlimited Magnetism

By Laramie P.
from Dallas, TX

I've been living with a wonderful and succesful friend in Huntington, Indiana as personal assistant, helping him build a new company (he's the head of sales), since the hurricanes in Louisiana. During these short couple months I had become increasingly hungry for a life far greater than I had previously dreamed or thought possible. Just a week before my 25th birthday, I came across "The Secret" website. The release date was only one day before my birthday, and something told me this was what I'd been searching for so hard. What an incredible gift, followed by the most exciting celebration of my life thus far. After falling in love with the teachings and viewing the DVD about 7 times, many things started immediately shifting in my entire life. For the sake of details, I'll jump time to the present. I was invited to live in the mansion with the CEO and founder of our company, headquarterd in Dallas, TX (a wealthy city), where I am now writing this from. I have been promoted to being his personal apprentice, and I'm learning many powerful wealth building and marketing strategies. As it turns out, he's been practicing the Law of Attraction for some years now. All this happend from stepping out on a limb and sharing "The Secret" DVD with him to help accelerate the growth of our new company. I cannot express my grattitude enough to all who were involved in the assimilation of this work of art. But on behalf of all of us, "Thank You".

About Laramie P. from Dallas, TX:

I love this life. I love it's opportunity. I love it's Laws, which work so perfect and consistent. I'm becoming a magnet for everything I've ever longed for all at once. (Thank You)

The ideal image

By Jackie
from Chicago, IL

I was always a very active girl. I play a lot of sports like lacrosse, field hockey, soccer, and ice hockey. However, I was always on the chubbier side. I wasn't big or anything, but I wasn't thin either.

I read The Secret and decided that I wanted to become my ideal weight. So I told myself that I could eat whatever I wanted and I could burn it off easily because I have such a high metabolic rate. Now I am losing the weight I needed to, quickly and easily. I can still eat how much and whatever I want.

About Jackie from Chicago, IL:

I am fourteen years old.

What I want I GET !

By Minanda
from France

There are so many of what I call "miracles" that happened in my life, but I will share just a few of them.

I wrote a book on my spiritual experiences that I had with Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe, but didn't have the money to print it and didn't know where to start, but I did believe down deep in my heart and soul that somehow I will get the help that I needed. Then one day a friend of mine that I lost touch with called me up and asked me what I was doing, I told him about the book, he spontaneously offered his help and money !!!! The book was printed and is now on sale.

Another story; I was supposed to go on vacation, the booking was done, I had sent some money to the hotel but something happened with my paychecks and I suddenly was out of money !!! I was due to leave in one week. Where could I find the money I needed until my next paychek? I suddenly was inspired to look in my jewelry box. As I was going through it (most of my jewels are fake), I suddenly saw an earing that my mother had given me years ago - the second one was missing. I had NEVER paid attention to that earing before, but that day for some reason I took it to a jewel shop and asked if it was worth anything. The man said it is a diamond and it has a certain value. I couldn't believe it, I had thought for years that it was a fake diamond. I sold it and got exactly the money I needed at the exact moment when I needed it. I thanked the UNIVERSE and GOD.

When I was looking for my new apartment, I visualized exactly what I wanted. The floor, the street, the windows, the area. And I got what I wanted - incredible !

Before that, I passed by with a car near a pretty country road and thought, "Oh, I'd love to live there, down that road, it is so pretty." A few weeks later I decided to rent a new house. The owner asked me to go see houses for rentals and guess what... the owner took me down that pretty road I had seen and wished to live, and a pretty house was waiting for me right there and I rented it right on the spot.

One day I went into a library and saw a cook book that I wanted to buy, but on the cover page there was a photo of fish on a plate. Being a vegetarian for compassionate reasons I thought, "Oh what a pity that the cover page is with dead fish on it... if it had been with vegetables I would have bought it." I really wanted that book, and one week later I went in the same library to buy something when my eyes caught the same book but on the cover page there was now a plate of vegetables!!!! I was in shock, I couldn't believe it! It is as though for some reason the publisher suddenly decided to change the cover page. And, well, now the book is in my kitchen. THANK YOU THANK YOU!

My son wanted a video camera but didn't have the money to buy one, then sometime later his teacher told the class that there would be some kind of contest where youngsters could win many things. My son did the contest and you know what he won - a brand new video camera.

He also wanted a big new flat TV, but they are so expensive. He even measured the space it would take in his cupboard and then started to visualize he already had the TV. A few days later one of our neighbours gave him two invitations for some kind of a fair, he went with his girlfriend and there was a contest from the local newspaper. My son went into the game, there were eight people playing... and well, you probably guess what happened don't you? Yes, that is right, he WON that big flat TV he wanted!!!!

I wanted a car but didn't have the money to buy one... and a friend of mine gave me a beautiful car!!! The exact color that I wanted!!!!

I never dared ask much because I thought asking much is not being humble, but that's so WRONG. Asking a lot from the Universe is not stealing from anyone, there is enough in the Universe for all of us. Since I read the book The Secret I will ask more without feeling guilty, and I will be now more precise in what I want, visualizing all the details etc. I had many times the proof that IT REALLY WORKS. I hope more and more people use this creative energy to improve their lives and be happier. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

About Minanda from France:

I am the author of the book IN THE NAME OF LOVE, and a living example of how the Secret works, and how our thoughts create our reality. It is just FASCINATING... it REALLY WORKS!!!
