Ang Secret Ko

After reading The Secret, I’ve been trying to have a positive mantra on just about everything. I can’t say it is entirely fool proof. Yes I still have my share of down offbeat days, but I think I’ve managed to keep a generally happy disposition since 2008 started. It’s really a matter of changing one’s frame of mind. You attract good things by being positive. I know it’s no mean feat to be sunshiny and cheerful all the time. We’ll inevitably come across sucky situations and or sucky people who will shatter the optimism we’ve so painstakingly built. The trick here is not to get easily affected by it. For the lack of word, huwag mong patulan. It will take all your willpower not to. But it’ll be worth it. You’ll thank yourself for not doing so in the end.

I think part of THE secret is to stop being in control all the time. I guess we’re all control freaks in some way or another. I am guilty as charged. However I’m slowly learning to loosen my grip on things. I’m slowly unloading the excesses that I don’t need as well. Life has been pounds lighter and more peaceful. I know my life can never turn out perfectly, the way I exactly want it to be. As much as you want it so badly, if it ain’t for you then you just have to leave it at that. Let things be. I decided I don’t want to look for the answers anymore unless it presents itself to me. Hehe I won’t overanalyze the why’s and how’s anymore. As my friend would say, “Come what may.” That's what I'm absolutely going to do. I am going to embrace fate in all its glory.

Your entry is intriguing, as the one person I saw most interested in The Secret waas one of the most horribly controlling people I know... I do not know where that falls in the Law of Attraction, but I believe highlyu in postive, Creative Visualization (thank you for that one, Shakti Gawain) and her book for me, has propelled me past much of my control..... and like the Secret, Gawain gets glowing reviews from Oprah. Salamat. Nice post.
