I have read and known of The Secret and the law of attraction for about 8 years. I used it to accomplish many great things in my life but in the last year I just felt like my life was a mess and every gratitude exercise I did wasn’t working out for me. I just felt disheartened. I left my job after months of feeling depressed there and not enjoying what I was doing. I thought I would find a job immediately but it didn’t happen so fast.

I wanted a new job with much more money than what I was getting before and a job where there was an option to work at home. I also wanted to find a new house for me and my boyfriend to rent that was less than $600 a month, which was nearly impossible in the area we’re living in. I went on a few job interviews but nothing. After each interview I would check my phone every 10 minutes waiting for them to call. I was just so disheartened. I would listen to inspirational videos and podcasts and I would feel sad afterwards because I felt like these weren’t working for me.

And then one day it hit me what I was doing wrong: I was so focused on what I didn’t have and so focused on my current situation and not looking at all at the positives in my life. That was why it was taking so long for me to manifest my perfect job. After my realisation I changed my day to day routine and looked at the positives in every situation and aspect of my life. Here is what I would say to myself:

“I am so truly blessed to have a roof over my head, food to eat and a constant place of shelter. I am so thankful that I am safe.
I have a great family who loves and supports me and an amazing boyfriend who loves me unconditionally. I am blessed and grateful for all my friends who are so much fun and make me feel great. I am grateful for my car that brings me everywhere I need to go. I am so blessed to be healthy that I can choose whatever job I want. I am so truly blessed for my amazing life and all the things and people in it who make it so great. I am so thankful that I have all this spare time to go to the gym, to go on walks, to work on me and make myself truly happy.’.

Every time I felt disheartened I would say this over and over to myself until I felt like I wasn’t lacking anything in my life. After a few weeks I got a call from a recruitment agency saying that I had an interview with a company I don’t even remember applying for. I went to the interview and I was so nervous that my voice was shaking throughout the interview. I realised that the reason I was so nervous was because of the fear that I had that I might not get the job. I did not have full trust in the Universe.

A few days later I got called for a second interview by the same company and this time I was so confident and laid back because I simply knew that this job was mine and what’s for me, will not pass me by. I got a call the next day saying that they want to offer me the position and the money they proposed was more than what I had in mind which was amazing! I also got a dream house to rent that I had originally saw but thought that it was out of my price range, however the landlord had lowered the deposit and the original rent. I am so truly blessed and grateful for everything I have in my life. Thank you!
