Secret found

So this morning my roommate, Kristina, popped in a movie called 'The secret'. It was a book first, then apparently they made a movie about it. It was more of a supplement to the book. I have never read it, but it was very interesting.
One of the things that it said was to visualize and imagine what it would be like to have your dreams to come true. They talked about having a dream board where you post pictures of the things that you wanted. (I highly recommend watching this movie. I haven't read the book so I cant recommend it until I have read it.) They said that it was good to focus on things that you want, things that are good in life, instead of things that you dont want to happen because you then focus on the negative. So, instead of saying "I dont want to be poor." you say "I want to be prosperous." Instead of "I dont want to fail my classes." say: " I want to get good grades." I think its a great idea!

I am now in the mood to kick butt! :) hahaha well, more like my own butt into gear.
Its nice to hear that when you focus on the positive, positive things happen. It makes sense because, for example, when you focus on something with your eyes as you walk, you start to veer towards the thing you are looking at. The mind has more power than I think we would like to admit.

So, after watching this movie, I decided that I would write down the things that I want in my life.

1. To do good in school
2. To find the man of my dreams and fall in madly in love.
3. To be a good and loving wife
4. To be a caring mother
5. To be kind to everyone
6. To find the good things in life
7. Always provide for my children
8. Be active
9. Become smart/wise
10.Always be devoted to Heavenly Father
11. Be a good example to my children
12. Be a loving awesome grandma
13. Always serve my husband
14. Appreciate what I have
15. Use my talents to help others in their lives
16. Pay back my debts from school
17. Somehow unit people of all faiths and creeds
18. Discover something amazing.
19. Learn to paint


These are only some. But today, after I am finished writing it, I am going to make my first 'Dream board' and try and find pictures of the things that I want in my life. Its nice to know that I have the power to make my life whatever I want it to be. The secret is: Its all inside me. This is where I will be. Not sure when, but it doesnt matter, because it will happen and I am so excited :)
