Sounds like the Secret is working really well for your financial sitch! Have you tried the letter writing thing by chance? I swear by it. Clearly right this second I am not quite where I want to be (yet), but I HAVE met many of my goals, or at least had many things aired and discussed that were in my letters. These range from draft emails to draft letters, to a thank you letter that I have in my wallet (not only R-related).

Hey Daisy, no R talk. There has been no R talk since mid to end of July and even that was a one question thing and I dropped it. I want to work on myself and have him really think things through before there is any R talk!!! LoL. We only talk about light things right now.
ITH - Yes, I did do like a 'Dear Diary' type letter based on the future and all the things I was thankful for. With these letter...do I just write all the things that I want to happen? How do I write them, like just as points or to a 'person'/diary? But yes the Secret has been working with the money sitch as I have been offered alot more hours than scheduled!!! Woo Hoo!! Now I will patiently wait for it to manifest into the other aspects of my life.
Well I did the letter as part of a class, believe it or not, in my MBA program 2 years ago. It was a class called Creativity and Personal Mastery. The ideas are very "Secret-like". So the idea is to write everything in the present tense, everything that you are currently grateful for, and to be as detailed as possible, down to the kitchen sink in your house. You are then meant to carry it in your wallet so that it is with you all of the time.
People may doubt this, but a few days after I did this for the first time (where I was focusing on getting a post-MBA job), I got a recruitment email from a very good company for a dream job. I got the job, even though I believe that there were many others who, on paper, would have been much better. I beat many odds to get my job. Other things in my letter came true as well, but the majority of the focus had been on my job.

Wow very inspiring. Yea the main focus of my letter was on my R and I read it every night before going to bed. Maybe I should fold it up and put it in my wallet instead.
You should!!! You can still read it every night :).
By the way if you're ever interested, there is a book associated with the class I took. I think it is VERY good, and Secret like, but with more specific exercises. It's by Srikumar Rao and you can def find it on Amazon.

Oh I'm thrilled! That class changed my life...clearly not my relationship, but that's my own fault :).
I hope you like the book. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it :).
