Hi everyone. I hope you are having a wonderful and magical day. I would like to thank all the writers of the stories, they motivate me every morning to think bigger and better.
I first came to know about The Secret in 2015. However, I was too ignorant to actually follow what was being told. It took me a devastating breakup to want to change my life and start my spiritual journey. Finally, I started my spiritual journey in October of 2021.
So in November 2021, I completed my post graduate degree. For two months I did not want to do anything because I was mentally exhausted from the process of writing thesis and papers and rewriting them so many times till my advisor could approve them. I thought I needed a break and I took it. But in January 2022 I was at home and got bored. The job I wanted to apply for wouldn’t come up for another 10 months so I thought maybe If could get a temporary job till then it would be nice. So I decided to command the Universe. I said, “Dear Universe, I want a job by April of this year” which was in four months. I would repeat my affirmation and this was really the first time I was applying The Secret.
I waited and waited for April to come but during April I did not see any vacancies. As it was approaching the end of April, like the 28th or 29th, I thought that maybe I did not apply The Secret properly. So I just let it go. On April 30 a vacancy popped up for me. I was sent the notice of the job by 3 different people who otherwise would not send me anything. Although I did not get a job in April, a vacancy did come up. I was so shocked. I thanked the Universe, thinking it was all for me.
So the job had 20 vacancies and 400 applicants. I freaked out a bit because usually these jobs don’t have that many so they just select on the basis of interviews. But the authorities could not interview 400 people so instead they decided to give an entrance exam. I was preparing for my dream job that was supposed to come out in October so I was like, maybe I could do it. But I was so nervous. Then I just reminded myself of how the vacancy came up on the last day of April for me. I decided to go for it.
Meanwhile I have being believing in signs. Sometimes when I would see a sign, I believed that my day was going to be awesome. Some have cars as a sign but for me it’s butterflies. Whenever I see butterflies I just become happy and instantly know that everything’s gonna go okay. I started believing in this sign only after starting my spiritual journey.
Fast-forward to the day I had my exam. I was nervous while waiting for it to begin. I was still outside the building talking to a friend who had come up for the same exam. I was busy talking when suddenly, for no reason, I looked sideways. And there it was. A butterfly! I instantly thanked the Universe and I knew the day was gonna be good and I was thankful for the day in advance. So I gave the exam which was an objective type and it was a good exam. I thought I had done well but I wasn’t sure.
Ten days later, I was informed that I passed the test and I was called for an interview. I went for the interview and gave my best. I did not see a butterfly but that did not discourage me. Since the duration between the entrance exam results and the interview was 10 days, I was eagerly waiting for the interview results to come too. For the interview, 78 candidates had been shortlisted so I was a bit nervous again. So on the 14th of July, I was thinking about how the interview result wasn’t out yet and wondering if I had qualified or not. I asked the Universe to let me know the status, and that day I saw so many butterflies but I still did not know when the results would actually come out.
I got a call at around 5 pm that day from a person at the office and I was told that I was among 20 people who were selected. My joy knew no bounds. I was so happy. I just thanked the Universe multiple times that day. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
They said they would call on the next day to tell me the location of the job. I prayed and asked the Universe for a certain place. When I got the call the next day they told me the location I was being posted to. And to be honest, I did not like it because it is not a very big place and I wanted a big town. I was a bit disappointed for a few hours about not getting the place I wanted. But then I reminded myself that the job I wanted was more important to me than the place. And, that I was being divinely guided by the Universe as I had asked the Universe to do for me. Being negative about it would only mean I did not accept the Universe’s guidance fully so I released my negative emotions and just showed my gratitude for the job I got. I asked for it in April and got it in July which is not bad at all!
Sometimes the Universe has its time and you just gotta believe it. I am so grateful that I am writing this story today and the day has been magical. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Rhonda, for changing my life and thanks to the Universe too. And for the people reading this story, just have faith. Everything comes at the right time when you are ready for it!
