Since I began my journey of improving my life and living the biggest life I can using the law of attraction I've read many books on the subject. I love learning everything I can about making my life better through the use of my thoughts and the use of the law of attraction.
One important thing that I've noticed in each book I've read is that each author mentions the importance of having a life coach to help have the best life possible. Someone who will help motivate and inspire me to be the best person I can be. Someone who will help me reach my goals and accomplish things I never thought I could.
Each time I read about these amazing people, these wonderful authors having life coaches themselves, I dreamed of having my own life coach. I wanted someone to be my life coach, to motivate me to accomplish my goals. I imagined having a life coach. I focused my thoughts on someone offering to be my life coach.
Tonight those thoughts became real. I had my first session with a life coach. It was a group session, but it was a session with a life coach none the less. I am thrilled that the law of attraction has once more presented itself in my life.
Not only do I now have a life coach, but I am being inspired and motivated by an amazing group of women. My thoughts are becoming my reality and I'm living my big life.

Ford Taurus
My birthday is May 15th. This makes me a Taurus. Now I know it's strange, but because my sign is the Taurus, from the time the first Ford Taurus came out I decided that I wanted to own one when I was old enough to drive and buy a car. Well, since I got my license 21 years ago, I've owned 3 of them.
The interesting thing is that when they first came out, I loved the name and wanted to drive one, but I wasn't impressed with the body style, but right before I was able to buy one a new body style was introduced for the Ford Taurus. I loved the curves on the car, but I still didn't own it for very long. I drove a Ford Explorer for a while because we felt we needed a bigger vehicle. The second Taurus I drove had the same body style, but I still didn't own it for very long as we once again decided we needed an SUV.
Move ahead to 2010 and the lease on the vehicle I was driving was about to expire and I needed to decide on a new vehicle. I'd imagined a car in my head for some time and started looking online for the specific car I wanted. I was shocked when I saw the new 2010 Ford Taurus. It was exactly what I'd imagined. The body style and the interior were exactly what I wanted.
I started talking to dealers and did more research on the exact Ford Taurus I wanted. I was very specific. I let the dealer know what I wanted and he went to work looking for it, but he couldn't find it. I knew what I'd imagined though and what I wanted, so I waited.
Imagine my excitement when a few days later I receive a phone call from the man who was helping me and he had the wonderful news that he found the exact car I wanted and it was ready to go. Not only did he find me the exact Ford Taurus I wanted, but I got it for the price I'd been imagining, even though I'd already been told it wasn't possible.
The power of visualization worked for me when it came to getting the exact car I wanted. I know it can work for other things too. All you have to do is BELIEVE!

My First Dreams
When I was a teenager, before I knew about the Law of Attraction, I knew there were things I wanted to do, be, and have. I had these things stuck in my head and I was determined that someday I would do, be, and have them. At the time, being a teenager, I just didn't know how. At the top of my list were several specific things: Visit Italy, drive a Taurus (that's my astrological sign and the name was the one reason I wanted one), own a cocker spaniel, see Bon Jovi in concert, and live in a home bigger than the one I grew up in. Although there were several small goals I had, these were the big ones. The ones I felt were my must have and must do.
That's when I met Eddie. It was towards the end of my sophomore year in high school and I quickly fell head over heels in love with him and him with me. He was 18 and I was 15. I wasn't allowed to date until I turned 16, but Eddie patiently waited until the day he could take me out. Until that day came, we saw each other at school, talked on the phone, and my mom occasionally took me to see him at McDonald's where he worked.
In 1990, the "in" thing for teenage girls to own was a Dooney & Bourke purse and I wanted one bad. My parents had already said that they weren't going to buy me one and I was too young to work, so I couldn't buy it myself, but I still wanted to have one. I knew exactly which purse I wanted, the color, the style, what I would put in it. I imagined it all even though I had no idea how I would get it.
As my 16th birthday approached Eddie and I began talking about our upcoming official first date. He planned to take me out to dinner that night. I was so excited! Neither of us could wait. That evening when he came to pick me up he had a birthday gift for me. It was the Dooney & Bourke purse I wanted. The exact one. Yes, I had told him I wanted the purse and showed it to him one day that we'd met at the mall, but I did not know that he was going to buy it for me. As a matter of fact, on that trip to mall he'd said it was an expensive purse, but yet, he had still bought it for me. I had a Dooney & Bourke purse. My very own. It was the first of many dreams Eddie helped come true. I BELIEVE he was brought into my life to make the dreams I was wishing come true, and he did.

The Reasons Why
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ASK for in prayer BELIEVE that you have RECEIVED it, and it will be yours. Mark 11:24
I guess I should begin by explaining my reasons for writing this blog. I actually decided to write it because I couldn't find anything like it around.
I learned of The Secret by Rhonda Byrne in 2009, while I was going through a challenging time in my life. I was actually browsing the web looking for ways to help me deal with my depression when my psychiatrist wouldn't prescribe me the medications I was hoping for. At the time, I didn't want to feel anymore of the emotional pain I was feeling, but she thought I needed to feel the pain to make decisions I needed to make in my life, so the search began.
As I searched for ways to help me through my depression I stumbled upon a website that mentioned a woman who read The Secret and turned her life around. I remember writing the information down and heading to Barnes and Noble immediately to buy the book. Once there, I asked one of the booksellers for help in finding it. The woman mentioned that she owned the CD's of the book and highly recommended it. I agreed to purchase the CD's, but also bought the book, since I'm an avid reader and I knew that I would enjoy reading the book for myself.
I arrived home and played the CD. I immediately felt a change in myself. Everything I was listening to made sense. I was awakened to this new world, but yet I knew that it was a world I was already living in.
It's been almost three years since I first learned about the Law of Attraction and began the journey of creating my life. I've learned so much and experienced so much in the world that I've created using the Law of Attraction. I've read so many books and listened to so many interviews from the greatest minds of the Law of Attraction. The only problem that I encountered is that most of those amazing people are entrepreneurs and have a business sense to them. Most of their books focus primarily about getting what you want for your business and money. Now don't get me wrong, I want to have money, just not an excess of it. I know that may sound crazy to many people, but it's true. What I focus on is having enough money to live comfortably and be able to do, be and have all the things that my family and I want. That's it. I don't want to live in a mansion or drive overly expensive cars. I'm perfectly happy living in the home we live in now and driving the car I drive now. I'm extremely happy being a 2nd grade teacher and making the salary I make. Like I said, it's enough for the wants that myself and my family have.
As I read the books that the greats had written I found myself often skipping over the chapters that talked about improving their business. I wanted to focus on making my personal life better, my love, my relationship, and my friendships. That's when I decided that if I couldn't find anything available that focused more on a personal rather than business look at the Law of Attraction, maybe I should write it and share my own personal experiences with it. I believe the Law of Attraction works in all areas of our lives and as a person whose dream it is to become an accomplished author, I believe the Law of Attraction has led me here.
So, I'm glad you've decided to share in my adventures of using the Law of Attraction in my life. I hope it will inspire you to use it in your own life. Just remember we attract everything in our lives, the good and the bad. Not everything I've attracted is good, but I do realize that I attracted everything into my life and take responsibility for it all. The life I have created has definitely consisted of more great times than bad, but it has taken a lot for me to gain control of my thoughts and create the life I have today.
I hope you will enjoy all the stories I will share with you about my life, either good or bad, it is the life I have created using the Law of Attraction.
