Quit My Job And Got The Job I Wanted.
Submitted by: Lydia Anne
Montreal CanadaI am a 22 year old female living in Montreal.
I want to thank God for everything he’s done for me throughout my life. I have been so blessed and I continue to be which is also such a blessing. Thank you Universe and thank you for The Secret team and all their hard work. It has helped me receive better things and the things I want in my life! Thank you for your teachings. I have read The Secret books and watched The Secret movie many times and continue to use it daily.
I was working for a company for two years. I liked the location I was at and also the customers and some of my coworkers. However, I wanted a new job but didn’t know what to do since I didn’t go to school or get any sort of certificate. I also made decent money and didn’t want to leave for a job that would pay me less. I wanted to work for a company with great values, have kind and positive coworkers and bosses and receive a better salary. I wanted a job that I where I could wear whatever I wanted, work short hours, have more time off and one that I could travel with. I wrote it all down and thought about it many times. Then I let it go.
I knew one day things would change but in the meantime, I didn’t know what else to do. I didn’t want to change jobs just to do something similar. I was previously working on receiving my personal trainer certificate and on Thursday I received it. Friday morning at work my boss wasn’t scheduled to work. However, he came in to tell me that when I returned from my week off I would be changing stores. I was never told about it before or given any other options and so I was a bit upset. I was scheduled to work till Sunday and then Sunday evening leave for my week off. After being informed I had to change stores, I really started thinking about the whole situation. I knew then that I would not be going to work at the other store because I really didn’t want to and didn’t appreciate what my bosses had done. So finally I decided I would quit.
I thought about all my options and since I now had my personal trainer’s certificate and I worked Friday evenings at the YMCA as a trainer, I could get another job at a gym. Though the idea was awesome, it was not something that I truly wanted but I’d still be happy to do it. For the last few months I had been browsing the internet and noticed online social media coaches for fitness. I thought how awesome it would be to do that. I thought about it a lot but I never did anything about it because I wasn’t sure how, so I just let it be.
Then Sunday evening I saw a few posts on Instagram about online coaches recruiting women, so I messaged a few to start. Finally on Monday I decided this would be the day that I would speak to my manager about quitting and I did exactly that. I contacted an old coworker from the job I just quit because she does online coaching and I saw she was recruiting as well. I spoke to her and I will start training with her as an online coach next week when I come back from my vacation! I even had another online coach who really wanted me but I chose to work with my old coworker.
I am truly happy and excited. Everything happened so quickly and I know I attracted it without realizing it! Online coaching was something I was interested in and now I finally get to do it. I can work as much as I want and I get to work from home. Therefore I wear whatever I want. I get paid weekly and get paid according to how much work I put in. I get to work with health and fitness online with others, which is incredible!!! I can work whenever I want, therefore, when I go on trips, I can work as well if I chose to. Everything seemed to work out better than I could have imagined and I am so thankful. I wasn’t sure what I would do for money when I didn’t have a job. I knew it would work out. Now I have a job starting next week and I am so happy and thankful.
You see, at first I was quite discouraged. I was upset that my job would do what they did to me. Especially since I knew I was a great worker. But now I can see that it was all meant to be so that I could get a job I love! Sometimes ‘bad’ things like that happen because better things are on the way and we just need to keep a positive attitude and be grateful regardless. If my job had not done that to me, I would still be there dreaming of a better job. So thank you, thank you, thank you!
