HOW I HAVE COME TO KNOW THE SECRET

 











HOW I HAVE COME TO KNOW THE SECRET by Rhonda Bryne

The secret is working! The secret is the law of attraction. The law says; whatever you think about and talk about you will bring into your experience.


The story you are about to read now is an experiment I have done the moment I realized there's a secret on how to live the lifestyle you want on the face of the universe. The other phase looks like saying; earth has a principle to live in it.

I started browsing about the secret around 2012 with my small Nokia phone having no idea that there's a book called the secret.

I understood that my thoughts are very important when it comes to worldly and spiritual achievement.

I have a friend who is a copper member from Yoroba land. I have told Abel about the secret movie even as I have not watched it. I told him to download it for me that I would pay him. 

Sometimes, our lack of knowledge can greatly limit us.

I know the law  of attraction to be; likes attract likes and focusing on what one really want.

The first amazing thing that happened in my life as a result of reading the secret online is my laptop. I was a village public call boy around 2009. I have only but small phones, table and cards for selling. I needed laptop to expand my business and increase in the services I rendered to the public because they needed it. 

As God may have it,  I have another friend Chukwuemeka popularly known as Niger in the village who travelled to abroad few years after knowing him. He suddenly came back from Canada and sold me a fresh fairly used laptop at a low price. I would say, he nearly dashed me the laptop. Because of the laptop, I struggled and  bought a new office printer named 'three in one coloured printer' I got them because I have thought it and visualized them. I wished to grow, to offer more services. 

One thing am doing that I don't know it counts is gratitude. I was very grateful to any single thing that happens to me and for me. When one buy's from me I would say; thank you. When I exchanged anything from anyone I wouldn't fell to say; thank you. I was full of gratitude without knowing that gratitude is one of the secret. Because when you are grateful to what you have and have gained more good things will happen to you.

Remember, I have read the secret and keep practicing it even as I have no idea of the power I was summoning when I thought and visualize in my thoughts. I was expanding in my thoughts so are the thoughts happening in my life as a daily experiences.

On 14th of December 2014, I went to a seminar at Owerre conference hall. I have no idea of their raffle tickets selling. I just reluctantly stood up from my feet and asked someone what's happening outside the hall. He told me, it's a try your luck ticket game. I decided to participate. I don't even know what I can get from it. I just went to buy a simcard of #400 to enroll. I bought it because I even needed more simcards in my business despite that I have little money left with me. I was even arguing with them to remove small money for me. The only action I took  without knowing the effect is , I was so grateful and laughing and playing with the MTN sellers as I bargain.

Atlast, I went back to my seat. Within some hours of motivations by the speakers, it came as a rumour that the sponsors of the Rise Network want to go. So, they have to offer what they have for the raffle tickets collection. And the moment matched with refreshment time.  The shaking of raffle bucket has started as many phone numbers were rapped in small pieces. As I got my own snarce, I ate it fast before everyone as if I knew something is about to happen. I was happy inside that's what I could noticed within me. What's my happiness, I don't know. All I knew was, something amazing wants to happen.

As the basket was shakes many times, someone needs to pick and who soever she picks become the winner. So the unknown person picks a rapped number and opened it, hmm, guess what; it's my phone number. 

Many was looking around to see the poor me as I jumped up of my seat. At first, I don't know what they have for the winner. Besides, it was my first experience as a winner in public. I came out to shake the very rich man of MTN Nigeria representative as a new sealed 2000 modern window laptop was handed over to me. I was amazed.

I was celebrated like a celebrity as many people came out to shake hands with me. When they asked me to express my feeling, I wanted to share how it has happened but I was afraid. So I just thanked God and the sponsors of the program.

So, by this time in my life I was becoming more aware of my thoughts. I kept imagining, could this be a sign of the secret that I have used without knowing it? Many people at the event said somethings to my hearing that I used juju to get it. But they were wrong. I used what I know to get it. I knew the secret to be 'the law of attraction'. 

Now that I have gotten a new laptop, I know my desires has not finished. I took another step on how to get the books named; 'The Secret' and 'the power' written by one author Rhonda Bryne from Australia.

As I went home, I downloaded the secret in audio because it was offered for free. I tried to get the movie itself and found out that it need some dollars in your account. I downloaded the book and its related.

In 2015,  I started looking for the secret book from book sellers in different parts of the States in Nigeria though it was only in Eastern region both the book and the movie.  It was not easy as I focus more of my energy in getting them because I knew it, I will get them one day.

One day, it came out that I would attend another seminar hosted by Emeke Nobis the author of  ' The Profound Life' at Enugu. The venue tends to be in book shop. I gat to know some people and know the book seller too. As we relaxed and make some connections, I asked the seller about the book and the movie. Actually he did not have them but promised to get them for me, so we exchange contacts. It is then I got; the secret and the power books. He could not get the secret movie for me. I thanked him for the ones he helped me reached my hands.

So, I keep on searching for the movie. Remember, I was focusing and talking about it to people I felt could help get it. On November 2015, I requested the movie from a close friend named Abel in form of asking him to get it for me using his phone after I have told him much of the secret I have learned. I encouraged him to read the books, watch the movie and learn from them.

On 15th of March, 2016, Abel came to my shop earlier in the morning while I was listening  from the secret audio with my laptop. He can hear it because I left the speaker high open. He said; hmm, you and 'the secret'. I replied to him; I think I told you to download it for me that I would pay for the cost. Only that time he told me that he has it in his phone. And said, he got it since that November I asked him to download it. I was happy and eager to demand it quickly from him. He happily sent it to my laptop. That's how I got "the secret movie" I have been looking for years

Finally, I got what I was thinking and talking about most of the time. I believe that this movie would change my life in a great way because I'm already gaining from the knowledge.

" I agree within me that for many of my thoughts to manifest, it requires patience and sure it would come" - Batholomew Obienyi.

That's how I have gotten the books am still enjoying reading up to date. Thank you once more Rhonda Bryne.
