No Recession For Me!
Submitted by: Ranjana Dasgupta
CanadaA Business Transformation and Project Management consultant - immigrant from India.
In the year 2008, I was working with the largest Indian outsourcing company. I was an internal strategy person and somehow was stuck in the role despite wanting to be customer facing.
In the same year, we got our Permanent Residency for Canada. I applied within the company for a transfer to it’s Canadian operations and this is where the Law of Attraction went to work.
Having read The Secret, I knew I had to visualize myself in Canada, and I did. But I somehow could not take my thoughts away from the fact that my application for the transfer would be rejected.
And it was.
We had two choices, forget about moving to Canada and go back to India or risk everything and come to Canada. That was just when the sub prime crisis had started hitting the US economy.
I knew I had focused on ‘not getting’ the transfer; so I kept my vision of working with a global company in Canada.
And magically almost, even without my applying for a job, I got approached on Linked In for a position. They flew me in for the interview and I got selected!!
Despite the difficult times in the economy, I had a 6 figure salary even before we moved into Canada.
