The Secret

Have you read the book "The Secret"? I've seen the movie and began reading the book a while back and I truly believe in the message that it promotes about the law of attraction. That when you have something going on in your mind, the universe sends it your way. Whether good or bad, you bring it to yourself. To quote Mike Dooley in the book, "Thoughts become things"! That seems quite true when you think about it. Have you ever in your life achieved a thing prior to you're thinking you can achieve it and then once you see a way for it to happen, you go out and get it?

I really wanted some exercise equipment, but I didn't want to delve into the equity I had saved from the sale of my home. I couldn't see a way of getting what I wanted. I thought and thought about it and couldn't come to any kind of conclusion about how I could get it. I finally prayed that God would open a door for me to be able to get the equipment without using my savings. And the door opened. The store offered a one year free of interest plan. I did it. I payed for my equipment in one year and didn't pay a dime in interest. It would have been over $1000.00 in interest alone. Now I own a Life Fitness treadmill and a Hoist Universal. Two of my most prized possessions.

I now want to get my training in Pilates. Again, I didn't want to delve into my savings. The universe has opened a door with a plan I can use to attain this. But, first I asked the Universe to help me decide what it is I truly wanted. My original plan was to come to Colorado for training. Then I decided that maybe it wasn't what I truly wanted. So I asked the Universe what it wanted me to do with myself. Aubrey came into the picture and brought up an old dream of mine to be a midwife. I struggled with the idea, and when I saw an advertisement for Pilates on the T.V. I had to ask myself a big question. If I were a midwife and saw an ad about Pilates, would I feel remorse or regret, or jealousy about not having gone into it. Yes, I would. That was the deciding factor for me.

I am going into my 50's. Amazing. I've had people tell me I'm too old to start another career. Nah, I don't care what they think. It's what I want. Health and fitness are the most important thing to me. Jeez, Joseph Pilates himself was in amazing shape. He's 57 in this picture.

It's all a matter of what you want. What you want to achieve. I quote Mike Dooley in The Secret, "The hows are the domain of the Universe. It always knows the shortest, quickest, fastest most harmonious way between you and your dream." Dr Joe Vitale says, "If you turn it over to the Universe, you will be surprised and dazzled by what is delivered to you. This is where the magic and miracles happen".

My dream has been to own my own fitness center. The universe knows what is entailed in that dream for me. I want certification in ACSM and Pilates. I want to own at least two cadillacs and six reformers. I would also like 6 pilates chairs. I want mirrors all around the room with a huge window to see out. I would like the walls to be brick and the floors wood. I would like the place to have an upstairs and downstairs. The upstairs would be where the yoga/pilates classes are held. The downstairs would have the equipment. I also want a yoga wall. I would like to travel to Australia, California, New York and other states to keep up on education. This is my dream. I will have the money I need for the Pilates certification by September this year. After receiving the training, I will probably work for other places first gaining more experience. I'm not sure how I will be able to attain all the equipment I want, but the Universe will open the doors for me, I just know it.
