Dear Marilyn,

I would like to make a small contribution to your forum on positive thinking. It is a personal testimony.

I have known for a long time that our worst enemy is within us. Not because I have happened to hear or read about it but rather because I used to be one of the worst self-saboteurs the world has ever seen. In fact, I used to be the most pessimistic person despite of my long-born taste for spiritual matters – or rather because of a gross misunderstanding of the religious message.

Then about a year ago, I passed to be an adept of "positive thinking," and from then on it has worked wonders on me.

How could this miracle happen? One day I came across "The Science of Getting Rich", an old classic by Wallace Wattles, which centers on the power of positive thinking to become wealthy in every sense; and as soon as I began to read it my life changed dramatically for good, yet without losing any of its previous spiritual quality. 

It was because of my involvement with networking that I found that wonderful book, and it was thanks to the book that I learnt to think positively under any circumstances, good or bad. It motivated me to continue on a daily basis, and soon I began to attract so many blessings and so many more reasons to be positive that I don’t think I could be pessimistic ever again.

Finally I learned to thank God again, something I had almost forgotten.

I know this may sound immodest, but I am extremely happy now.
