My dream job
Submitted by: Rhiannon Buglar
Brisbane, Queensland, AustraliaI am 27 years old and I have always believed that we are responsible for where we are in our lives. I first heard about The Secret while watching an episode of Oprah. I was intrigued and bought the book not long after. I am not a big reader, so I began reading the book but didn't get very far. Months later my Mum's boss lent her the CDs to listen to, but it took me a while to download it onto my iPod. I was thinking about how much I wanted to watch the DVD, as I prefer to learn things visually. It was a couple of days later when a stranger who I had a stall next to for work offered me a copy of The Secret on DVD. I watched the DVD the next day and felt as though my whole outlook was changed.
After watching the DVD, I realised that what I thought were consequences in my life, I had in fact received what I asked for.
I have a great love for animals and I had always wanted to work for the RSPCA, but they never had any jobs available in the position that I was after in the city I was living in. I decided to move back to Brisbane and start a new life for myself. I began studying as a Personal Trainer, and on the last day of my course I was looking through the job section of the paper, and there it was – my perfect job at the RSPCA in the position that I had always dreamed of. I applied for the job and got it. I work for the RSPCA full time and as a casual Personal Trainer at the gym down the street.
Since watching The Secret on DVD, I religiously listen to the CDs on the way to work, the way home to work, and while falling asleep. I feel as though a weight has been lifted off my shoulders, as I didn’t realise just how negative I was. I now use this new way of thinking when training clients at the gym, making them think about what they are grateful for, and saying out loud that they are fit, strong, sexy, and at their perfect weight!
