New Year, New Job.
Submitted by: Annette Q
Saratoga Springs, NYI am a 51 year young woman who lives with my husband and dog Karma. I enjoy keeping emotionally and physically fit, starting each day with gratitude, prayer and meditation, before a physical workout.
For the past 10 1/2 years I have been in a job that I knew was never right for me, but the benefits were keeping me from leaving.
The company I worked for is an international company with thousands of employees, but I felt undervalued and miserable most days. In fact, a survey given to the employees last year stated the reality: “80% of employees would NOT recommend the company to a family member or friend to work here”. Ouch!
I knew I had to leave and have been saying for years “I want a new job”. It wasn’t until I reread The Secret over Christmas time last year (I had read it 4 years previously but was not practicing it) that I decided to make a list of everything I wanted in my new job.
I wrote down all the benefits I have in my job, I wrote down how much I wanted to make in my new job, etc. I wrote it all on an index card and kept that index card on my car’s dashboard. I was in sales so I drove around in my car all day long. I stared at that card every day in the New Year. I said out loud everything on the list every day. I started to look for a new car as I had a company car, and took pictures of the car I was going to drive in my new job.
It wasn’t long before I received a call from someone at my old company I had left 10 1/2 years ago. There was a position open and they asked if I would consider coming back.
Well, the rest of the story you can probably guess.
I met the new managers and I asked for everything on my list and I GOT IT!
I would never of had the nerve or the belief to do this if it wasn’t for reading The Secret and applying the principles every day. ASK, BELIEVE, RECEIVE truly works and I wanted to thank you and let everyone else know, the only thing keeping them back from their dreams is their thoughts and their feelings! You can make it happen, you just have to ASK, BELIEVE and RECEIVE!
