I watched The Secret in my hour break at Jordan University- for the third time (yes JU has some interesting stuff). I really do get the point, be optimistic blah, blah! (Haven’t we heard that broken record). It is not that easy to apply though. My life has been a series of unfortunate events; optimism is seriously out of the question! I really do try but all my friends and family say that I’m a ball of negative energy. I do not really think so, try being in my shoes and we’ll see who is the pessimist.
As we were all watching (Amino and her class mates, I just pop up for no apparent reason!) Amino would give me the eye whenever the speaker says, “You need to think positively” or whatever. It is hilarious, I felt ungrateful. Ok I am privileged in many ways but freedom in some forms are lacking. I am still a woman after all!
However, The Secret does really work, I’m sure you have heard it a million times. But it really does. “The universe is a catalogue”, “Thoughts become things” I wish it were that easy. I advise watching it. Getting a new perspective in life.
We all probably apply The Secret one way or another unconsciously. It is a way of life almost all religions state that. Basically The Law of Attraction governs all lives to achieve happiness effortlessly. Thinking positively pays off.
Anyways, my new years resolution is to stop being depressed, whiny and complain about useless things. Although it became a habit, it is just me. This time I will try harder to stick to it for good. Maybe I will get my dream car! I already got the most important thing.
On my way out some students were disappointed because they expected to watch an action movie instead!
