This real life experience has come us from Australia. The story goes that a dentist, Veronica Roller was driving home around midnight recently in her silver BMW 330. She was listening to the audio book of "The Secret" and sending her wishes out to the Universe. Suddenly she was shunted in the rear by another car. She had been rear-ended.
As she got out of her $100,000 pride and joy she was faced with three hoodlums wielding baseball bats. The hoodlums explained in very simple and expressive language that they wanted her car and they could not be bothered with the more usual methods of buying a car they had visualized, her BMW, and they wanted it now. They were following the mantra set out in the Law of Attraction - ask, believe and receive.
"It was one of the most terrifying things that I have gone through" Veronica is reported to have said. So how does this enlightened positive thinker rationalize the traumatic car-jacking. Veronica then went on to say "Most people think that the car-jacking was bad but God, no. The way it all turned out and the way that it came together was just miracuous"
Duh! After hearing a news report of her attack and car-jacking Veronica called a radio program to ask them to broadcast her car's number plate. This was an aha moment, a month before the car-jacking experience she had wanted to call that particular radio program to complain about the hospital system. "I made the whole thing happen" she realized. "I wanted to be on that particular radio show". Seriously, she added the publicity from her story resulted in the offenders being swiftly caught "If I wasn't listening to The Secret that night, I wouldn't have been able to deal with the media the day after".
So I asked myself what are the messages in this real life experience?. Ask, Believe,Receive? or have we got to ready to receive (even if this appears to have unexpected costs).
What do you think?
