Do You Think This Is Just A Coincidence?

When I decided to change my job and start sending out resumes, I “asked” that in a day I will get two interview calls from non-profit organizations. Guess what? Last Monday, I really received two interview invitations, one from email and another from phone call and both of them were from non-profit organizations.

Among the 2 interviews, I actually prefer one of the jobs as a Data Manager. So, I imagined myself working in that organization. Few hours after the interview, they called me back and wanted me to go in for 2nd interview on the next day. Few days later, I got the job offer!

I told one of my friends how amazing “The Secret” is, but she doesn’t believe it and said it was just a coincidence. My dear friends who are reading this blog, what do you think?

Now, come to my H1B application. For those who knew how the US H1B working visa is processed, the application for private organization has to send in by April 1 and wait for the result. Like others, I sent in mine too. But since I got a new job offer, I have to resubmit my application and canceled the previous application. This means that I have to pay another $3000 (USD) again because my lawyer told me I couldn’t cancel the application that I have sent in and I can't get the money back. So, I made another wish. I sent out the “message” that my new visa application will be free.

Well, this morning my lawyer called me and gave me good news! She said I can cancel the cheque and so when the USCIS alert me regarding the payment, I just need to send them a letter and ask them to withdraw my case. By doing so, I will be able to get back at least $2500 and that will cover my new visa application fees.

See, another “coincidence” happened to me again.

I want to thanks Huat Heng, who introduced to me "The Secret" and showed me that, I actually can get what I dream for, what I want for and what I ask for. Nothing is impossible. All I have to do is just ASK - RECEIVE - ACCEPT. The same goes to you too!

You Can Get It If You Really Want

Invited by my friend Huat Heng as guest blogger to share my own experiences, I decided to pick this title, which is also the name of a song by Jimmy Cliff-You Can Get It If You Really Want. Mainly due to it is a wonderful song and it has inspired me a lot in my life.



I believe that music therapy may be one of the most convenient and effective motivation approach. So here, I recommend the lyrics to you.

You can get it if you really want

But you must try, try and try

Try and try, you'll succeed at last

Persecution you must bear

Win or lose you've got to get your share

Got your mind set on a dream

You can get it, though harder them seem now

You can get it if you really want

But you must try, try and try

Try and try, you'll succeed at last

I know it, listen

Rome was not built in a day

Opposition will come your way

But the hotter the battle you see

It's the sweeter the victory, now

You can get it if you really want

But you must try, try and try

Try and try, you'll succeed at last

You can get it if you really want - I know it

You can get it if you really want - though I show it

You can get it if you really want
So don't give up now

I understand that it is hard to keep our belief when we were 'beaten down' (faced obstacles) more than once in our life. We tried but we failed. Then our confidence begin to shake and we are afraid of 'tomorrow'. We doubted on ourselves and asked, "Was I inferior to others?" It seems there was no end to the darkness.

Can you believe that an outstanding girl who is good at dancing, singing and sports would ever get depressed? In fact, even her friends and teachers couldn’t believe it. Yeah, I don’t believe it either until I experienced it by myself.

I am the girl described above. Everything just started with my high school life with a group of girls, only girls. In their eyes, it is merely a new environment. However, to me, it was the most difficult time in my life. I just can’t fit myself into the environment. Before that, depression is only a word far away in the book or TV shows. But during that time, it came into my life. I couldn’t focus on my study, though I tried to force myself. I couldn’t stop crying. I couldn’t face the life. I was depressed!

I tried to find a way out to get away from the girl school. It seemed so hopeless. Then an opportunity knocked at my door, thank God. I was chosen to be in a one-year exchange student program to U.S.A. However, it was not a happy ending story. The fact is always cruel. The need of expensive fee for the program demolished my dream, my hope and everything!

I returned to the same old days, which were full with tears, fears and insomnia. When I went to bed at night, I just hoped that I needn’t open my eyes again because only the dream was the warmest and sweetest.

I didn't consult any doctor as I understand that I AM THE ONLY PERSON WHO CAN HELP MYSELF. At last, after using many approachess such as keeping diary, doing exercises and self-therapy, I managed to conquered myself! The recovery process was not easy, in fact it was a struggle. However, I knew that I just have to face it for a positive change! Because I believe I can get what I really want!

In short, although future is unexpected but you can get it if you really want. Never say impossible before you try it!

Sending Message Out to Universe/God

Most of us do not know how to send the right message to the Universe/God. There are certain methods to send the RIGHT message. I’m sharing my personal experience and the knowledge I’ve gained from various Gurus, yogis, metaphysicians and books.

Often, when we pray, we tend to tell all of our problems and needs. This way, we send mixed messages to the universe/God, thus we get mixed responses. So we have to tune our needs and wants properly in order to send the right message using the right method. Below is one of the techniques:-

Meditation
========
This method is a powerful ancient techniques used by yogis, gurus and masters of the spiritual world to transcend to higher consciousness and enlightment

But first, you must write down what you want .You have to include the criteria below .You have to think the end result of your needs

1. Request
2. Safe guard
3 .Express gratitude

For example: - If you want a car

I am owner of a new BMW 5 series.
It came to me in a peaceful and safe way. With divine will and free will of all concerned. I thank god/universe for this gift. So be it.

The first step to practice meditation is by controlling our breathing. This is to calm ourselves and stabilize our energy flow to the body.

The guide:-

1. Find a quiet place in your house. Prayer room is the best. In your prayer altar, lit a candle/oil lamp, incense sticks, place flowers to the god’s picture according to your belief, it can be Lord Shiva/ Krishna or any other Hindu deities/ Makkah/ Jesus/ Buddha/ Gurus while you perform the meditation. Sit in a relaxed and comfortable position, your spine should be straight and your head in alignment with your body.

2. Take some deep breaths. Inhale through your nostrils, as it enters your nose, and feel as though the air is flowing in your stomach and then it is expelled. Just relax into this quiet moment.

3. Say this affirmation in your heart “I’m fully relaxed and I’m protected by God’s light.” Feel a white light around your body covering you in an oval shape.

4. Now focus on your 3rd eye. Your third eye is in the middle of your forehead between your eyebrows. Your 3rd eye governs your psychic vision and intuition. Imagine a deep indigo light whirling with full of brightness.

5. Then say this affirmation in your heart. “I’m now entering my subconscious mind.” Repeat this for 4 times. And finally (the 5th time) say this “I’m now in my subconscious mind.”

6. Now say in your heart the things you wish for. Use the affirmation note you have written down earlier by using the criteria mentioned above (Request, Safe guard, Express gratitude). Say it for 3 times.

7. This is the important part. After the steps above, you have to imagine yourself achieving the result you wanted. For example, if you wanted a BMW 5 series. Imagine yourself driving it, feel emotionally how it is like to drive the car. Imagine yourself driving it happily around for few minutes, then with the joyful feeling, slowly drift to your conscious state and open your eyes slowly.

8. You have sent the message to the God/Universe. Let the candle/ oil lamp burn for sometime until you begin to do something else or going out of your house. Do not BLOW the oil lamp or candle as it will disperse the energy. Just use a flower or anything else to off it gently.

9. Repeat this as many days or for 41 days maximum.

Coincident vs Law of Attraction

In the office, I was working on my task while listening to the MP3 on my Sony Ericsson K550i with the earphone on. It was playing the song 'Beep' by Pussy Cat Dolls.

Then, a MSN message pop-up on my laptop screen. The following were the conversation:

Ming: Do you like Pussy Cat Dolls' song?
Me: Yes. But only 1 song. Do you know Beep?
Ming: Ohh. I am about to send you this song.
Me: I am blasting the song on my phone. Ha Ha, it's such a coincident. Law of Attraction on us is so strong now.
Ming: Is it?
Me: Of course!

That was a real incident just happened on this lovely Monday (not a Blue Monday, definitely, because many great things happen to me). I believe it is just one of the event as a result of Law of Attraction.

Sounds familiar? Do you experience the same too? Please share your experiences.

What Do I Want?

If you asked me to join a marathon 4 months ago, I would have called you crazy! I would have told you I do not have the endurance to go through such distance. I would have told you I'd rather sleep than spend 4 hours pounding stretches of hard and hot roads. I would have told you overweight people cannot run marathons, that it will be too painful. Probably a few more other excuses. That was me before I read about the Law of Attraction, before I discovered the power of harnessing my thinking. That was in December 2007.

Fast forward to January 2008. By this time, I have learnt a little about the Law of Attraction, and I told myself I will be able to run a half marathon if I keep my eye on the prize. I signed up with only one goal - to cross the finishing line. I had 2.5 months to train, and I trained at least once a week to prepare myself for it, and was very confident I could achieve my goal.

On the day of the race, I excitedly made my way to the marathon venue. When I reached the starting point, I saw the huge crowd of participants, and a majority of them were experienced runners. My confidence level suddenly dropped. I started to tell myself it's ok to not finish; I could just stop half way if I can't take it. I started making excuses for myself, my goal to finish the race was completely forgotten. I forgot about the Law of Attraction, I wasn't aware that subconsciously I was changing my goal.

I struggled during the first kilometer. The sight of confident runners around me further pushed my original goal down the drain. Throughout the run, I kept telling myself I will stop after 10km, I was so sure that I won't be able to go more than that.

After running for 8km, I started getting cramps and my left leg went numb. I had to stop at the medical booth at the 10km mark. My energy level was still high, and I could have continued and finished the rest of the 21km run, but because I told myself 10km is enough of an accomplishment, my body stopped at 10km and refused to budge. It took me 140 minutes to reach the 10km mark.

The ambulance brought me back to the starting line. While in the ambulance I thought about the run and why I failed. I realised then that I was concentrating on the wrong goal. I was asking for failure, not success!

2 weekends later, I joined another run. I considered it my redemption run. This time it was a hilly 10km run with stretches of flat road in between, not an easy route. I repeated my goals to myself the whole week; that I will finish the run, and I will finish it in 90 minutes, the average qualifying time for 10km runs.

I visualized myself crossing the finishing line. I visualized myself looking at my watch to find I've done it in 90 minutes. I was aware that just 2 short weeks ago I clocked 140 minutes for 10km, almost an hour more than my goal, but I did not allow this fact to influence me. All I know is I WILL finish the run, and I'll finish it in 90 minutes.

I finished the 10km run. And I finished it in 90 minutes!

It wasn't a miracle, far from it. Physically I was ready for long distance running, but I was mentally blocking my ability. Law of Attraction helped me fail my first marathon, and it helped me pass my second one with flying colors. By recognizing the power of Law of Attraction, I channeled it to get the great result I really wanted. You can achieve results using the Law of Attraction, both positive and negative results. So it's not a question of whether the Law of Attraction works, because it's a law and it will always work.

Therefore, the right question to ask is "What do I want?" Concentrate on what you really want, and then take advantage of the Law of Attraction to achieve it.

My goal now is to finish 10km in 70 minutes in my next run, which is due in 3 weeks. 20 minutes is a lot to shave off, but I KNOW I can do it, because that's what I want!
