No more stressful job

Oshkosh, WI22 year-old college student who is an avid practitioner of "The Secret" Teachings and a student to the Laws and Mysteries of the Universe.
Recently, I started a new job after being unemployed. When I first started the job I was overwhelmed, as with any job, but over time I started becoming familiar with what I had to do. However, as time went by, I started really disliking what I was doing. I hated the customers I was dealing with and I didn’t interact with the people in my office. It was becoming really hard to get up and go to my job.
I have watched “The Secret”, I own the DVD and I also own the book. One night I decided I needed to recap on some of the principles and I watched the DVD again. After watching the DVD, I followed up by reading the book (which is so worn thin that the pages are falling out!) The part of the book that stood out the most was the section in the Chapter of “How To Use The Secret”. The section entitled “Create Your Day In Advance” really opened my eyes to my current situation.
Every day, before I left for work, I took 10 minutes to meditate and clear my mind. I would breathe deep, focus and relax. Once relaxed, I visualized how I wanted to be at work, how I wanted my workday to go, how I wanted my customers to be. I then say some affirmations about my work and how I wanted it to be. Then I would visualize again my ideal work situation and gave thanks for it. I would feel so happy that I would be smiling when I was done meditating.
I also took some time and printed out the PDF picture of the “Feelings” chart and “The Optimists Creed” to take to work and hang up by my desk. For about one week, I followed my meditation and say the “Optimists Creed” when I got to my desk. My work environment did not get better, but I held to my routine. When I got an angry customer and I would feel myself starting to stress I looked at my picture of the “Feelings” chart and refocus to be patient and happy.
After one week, people started interacting with me more, I started laughing more and enjoying what I was doing. I started enjoying helping my customer. My Call Monitorings went up and I made new friends in the office.
Thank you to Rhonda and the The Secret Team, you really helped me out and made my life a whole lot easier!
