Making my job work for me

I’ve been at my job for 10 years. Up until one year ago I was very unhappy there. It wasn’t the work that I didn’t like, but rather the people. To be frank, I work with mostly women, and being a woman myself, it pains me to say that women can be difficult to work with at times. To make a long story short, I was surrounded with constant complaining and negativity of all sorts. It seemed as though no-one ever had anything nice to say, and I was one of those people. Of course, when you’re in the middle of this kind of dysfunction, you don’t realize it, and I didn’t until I discovered The Secret.
After reading The Secret (in one day!) my life was simply transformed. I made a conscious effort to be more positive and happy, and I declared to stay out of negative gossip and “evil doings” at my job. The results were amazing. My “friends” at work were no longer my friends. Once I quit feeding into the negativity, they no longer came around me to complain or gripe to me. We just worked together and I only enjoyed the positive aspects of them.
Another amazing thing that happened is that I have all new friends at work. These are really fun, positive people that I now go to lunch with every Friday, and it’s non-stop laughs.
And it doesn’t stop there. One of the “new friends” at work is also my boyfriend, and we’ve been going strong now for 6 months and plan on getting married. Sounds unbelievable, but well, it’s all true. I asked the Universe for a better work environment, and within days I liked my job again. I asked for the perfect man for me who would also be good for my son, and that’s exactly what I received. Actually, he’s better than I imagined. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
