Three Feet From Gold!

God is good and good is God! I am very thankful to my school friend who introduced me to The Secret. Thank you Rhonda for introducing this most precious gift to the world.
I am from India. I am sharing a magical experience of how I manifested what I wanted. I always wanted to work for the campus recreation center at my university in the USA. Being an international and non-work study student, I was told that the department accepts the applications of internationals very rarely, maybe only 1 in 100. Whenever I went to the recreation center, I had the feeling of what it was like to be working there. I walked around there as though I was one of the employees. Three months passed. I thought if this works and if I get a job there, I am not going to doubt the Universe anymore.
All of a sudden in January, the job listing I wanted popped up. But it clearly said “Work study only, no internationals”. I was shattered. I thought, it isn’t working and called my mom and told her I don’t have my belief anymore. I felt like crying as I really trusted the Universe. Still, something inside me forced me to apply for the job in spite of the odds, so I applied. Ten days passed and nothing happened.
Then after 5 more days, suddenly I got an email from the person recruiting, asking me if I would be able to work for her as she couldn’t find any work study candidates. I was astonished. I immediately ran to meet her and I told her, “Yes. I can work”. I was hired without an interview!
I would like to mention something here from the book “Think And Grow Rich”. There is a chapter in the book that mentions that behind every success that is caused by a burning desire, one must undergo something called a “temporary defeat, and three feet from gold”. At this point 90 percent of the people will lose their faith after this defeat. However, faith wins all the time!!!
The interesting thing is my boss at my work place is a strong follower of The Secret. It works! Thank you for reading my story. May magic and miracles follow you wherever you go. Feeling grateful!
