I totally believe in The Secret.
don’t leave!
OK, so I believe in aspects of The Secret.
I also believe in karma, meditation, following your own spirituality, and living positively with the help of medications.
I believe in putting out to the world what you want if you want it to come back to you.
Kind of like a figurative boomerang.
I believe that what you put in your body makes you a better-functioning human bean being. It’s too bad my willpower doesn’t abide by that belief, because really, look at me. bygones
When I find myself in a sour mood, I take a break, center myself, and pull out my happy happy. Or, take some Klonopin. When Patrick is on his period in a bad mood, I pull out all the stops to make him laugh, near to the point of annoyance.
I do not surround myself with negative people.
In both my online and offline lives, I have let people go out of my life who put out negative energy that was infecting my environment. I’ve found that I’ve not done it purposefully, but I do it subconsciously.
I sometimes later find out that those people ended up hurting others, destroying friendships.
I’ve learned that if I have a bad feeling about someone, I need to trust that instinct and keep a distance until and if that feeling proves to be wrong.
I don’t think that feeling has ever been wrong.
Lately, I’ve put out to the world that I do not lie.
I am not a person who lies.
I am a person who gives.
I am a person who puts out the LOLs.
I am a person who will succeed.
I am a girl who loves chocolate.
(This is the part where The Secret sends me a caseload of said chocolate.)

I believe the sames thing. Before I wake up in the morning I ask myself what I can do to make this day better for someone else. And when I lie down at night I make sure that I did. I also have a board in my kitchen of my wants that I look at everyday and put that out the universe that I would like that please.

wow. you’re a much better secreter than me.
i should totally do that, but i’m too lazy to write it down, and then i’d forget what i set out to accomplish.
You know, that’s one book I have yet to read. Someday.
I think you’re amazing and I love you more than a fat kid loves cake. (BTW This fat kid loves cake. Lots.)
I’m sorry if this was brought on by something / or someone in particular. May their granny panties bunch endlessly and their bras itch like crazy.
Was that bad Karma?
.-= sam {temptingmama}´s last blog ..Make up is my weakness =-.
ha, no. nothing in particular. just a realization.
and i loves ya back.
Yes, yes and yes. I love it when you write stuff that’s in my brain too
.-= Melissa (MBonn)´s last blog ..Sunday Snippets =-.
weird, right?
Amen sister. Don’t let the toxic get you down. I will admit to believing in the power of intention and the secret (which is basically the same thing and I was really pregnant when I watched that movie and I think I fell asleep at one point and was cracking jokes at some other points).
.-= Lee´s last blog ..Top 5 things women don’t get about men =-.
the video was beyond crazy, but the ultimate belief behind it is what works: intention & goals.
I’m being awesome and leaving a comment.
No, really, I feel ya, sister. Even if you don’t like Little Bear or Franklin.
.-= Mishi´s last blog ..Weekly Winners {The Bokeh & Benjamin Edition} =-.
Little Bear needs to be stuffed and Franklin made into turtle soup.
bite me.
I feel ya. And love this. and you.
That is all. Hope all’s well.
.-= Rachel ~ Southern Fairytale´s last blog ..Cookies For Kids’ Cancer =-.
all is very well, which is kind of the point of this post.
and i love you back.
Call me an asshole, (I am) but I’m an asshole who tells the truth, calls out bullshit and cuts out people who treat others like shit.
=-.
I guess what I’m saying is I agree with this wholeheartedly. And love you to bits. Oh and I try very hard to ignore the bullshit and keep putting positivity out there. I love that you are like that too. You and Patrick are both like that. Love. You. Both. xoxo
.-= Karen´s last blog ..karensugarpants: @Finola thanks! It’s a trek from here so I’m going to check here first.
Denis Leary’s song “I’M AND ASSHOLE!” keeps running thru my wee brain after reading this. weird.
I agree with you 100%.
.-= Natalie @ Hope Springs Eternal´s last blog ..Morning Walk =-.
as you should.
Good for you. You know this is one of the reasons why I love you so much.

That explains muchos muchos.
If it works for you I say go for it.

Love this! I am finding lately that the more I do this in certain situations, the more push-back I get….have you ever encountered that?
.-= Robin´s last blog ..Randomnicities =-.
sometimes, you just gotta let things be and step back.
I have no idea what The Secret is. Is that an Oprah thing? Because it totally sounds like an Oprah thing.
But I love this post. And I do the same thing. People who are constantly negative or who just like to stir up drama, I tend to back away from. I have no need for that in my life at all.
.-= cindy w´s last blog ..My Patella-ella-ella =-.
it’s totally an oprah thing but it doesn’t have to be.
it’s all about intention and goals, and unrelated to the secret, positive energy.
Thanks for putting up with me when I am on my period. Usually though you don’t need to make me laugh, just get some food in my belly! I love you too.
.-= The Husband´s last blog ..The Next Generation =-.
I don’t totally believe in the Secret. THERE! I said it.
But, I’m getting there.
I do believe you get back what you give.
So keep giving!
it’s all about perception and making it for YOU. what it is for me is different than what it might be for you.
also, it makes me happy.
And here I thought he was just GRUMPY. Who knew?
.-= lceel´s last blog ..Fried =-.
it’s either his manstration or he’s hungry.
I am so jealous of all of you people who talk about doing this subconsciously and getting “bad feelings” about people that you just need to listen to better.
If I had a dollar for every time Jared or a friend of mine said “well, yeah, I always kind of knew there was something about that person…” – well, I could afford better therapy. Heh.

you don’t get bad vibes from people?
maybe i’m just super duper special.
Not near often enough, apparently.

Let’s hug it out.

awwwwww YEAH.
I am so, so, positive and awesome. Please be my friend. (I am slightly needy, though… that’s cool, right? Plus, I do have chocolate.).
you and me, we’re meant to be each other’s stalkers. it’s just that damn 45 minute drive that keeps us apart.
so close, yet so far.
And that is why I read your blog

This is why I wish I was psychic so I would just know who the shitty toxic people are.
