I often visit The Secret Stories page. I am always pleased to hear the different stories and get inspiration from them. Now it is my turn to share my stories.
Since I was young I would imagine myself living in a different country when I was just dreaming my dreams. When I was 16 I heard about an opportunity to study in the US. I immediately applied and almost every night when I would wash the dishes, I would imagine myself in the US. I would dream about the things I would do and the places that I would go there. One thing I wanted for sure was to visit a business city, one with high skyscrapers and stay in one. I wanted my room to have a great view of the Park and of other interesting buildings.
After about 8 months later, I received a call telling me that I was being admitted to a program and I would be spending a year in the US!
I had an amazing year in the US and I did visit Chicago and I did stay in a great apartment in a tall skyscraper with the most amazing view. After returning from the US, I had a dream about going to London. Then suddenly, I came across another opportunity and I was selected as a young leader from a global pole of over 4000 applicants! When I applied, I used to dream about being interviewed by the BBC. I did not know about The Secret back then, I would just think about the things that I was going to say and how would the interview would go.
And guess what? During the forum, a journalist came and asked me whether I could be interviewed and I agreed. I gave an interview and at the end I asked him what broadcasting company he works for. His answer was the BBC! I was just speechless because another dream had just come true!
Recently this year I was craving for a vacation to a sunny resort, but I could not take it because my vacation was scheduled for another date. However, I kept believing that some opportunity would arise and guess what?! I did have an amazing business trip to a sunny resort, I worked with interesting and smart people and I enjoyed every minute of my stay!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Wishing all your dreams to come true!
Best!
