Artist Date, Week Eight ~ Secretariat, The Film


Last night I went to see the film Secretariat which is about how a housewife and mother, Penny Chenery Tweedy reinvents herself by taking over her ailing father's horse stable business. Despite her lack of horse-racing knowledge, and against all odds, she manages to navigate the male, dominated business, and in the end nurtures the first Triple Crown winner in twenty-five years. This was another GREAT film to see while doing The Artist Way course because the film shows how one woman succeeds by opening up to her ceative, and intuitive channels. She also best exemplifies The Law of Attraction, by feeling you have already accomplised what you have envisioned. Everyone thought it was near impossible for Secretariat to win the last race in the Triple Crown because it was the longest race, and he was better at running and winning the shorter races. She did not care, since she already felt she was a winner. Everyone told her she would never even get this far with her prized horse, so no matter what happened in the last race, she already felt she had won. Not only did Secretariat win that race, but he won it by 31 lengths and his record till this day has never been broken at that race course.


You don't have to be in an artistic field to benefit from the Artist's Way course, you can come from any walk in life just like Penny Chenery Tweedy. When you open up those creative channels to higher consciousness, you can create anything that you can dream.



Your desire is your prayer.
Picture the fulfillment of your desire
now and feel its reality and you will
experience the joy of the answered prayer.
