On My Way To My Dream Career.
Submitted by: Serena L
North West, EnglandI am a 24 year old fashion designer, who lives with her beautiful family and pet dog in the north west of England.
In 2014 I graduated from University with a degree in fashion design. It should have been a positive and joy filled time in my life, however, I let feelings of negativity and doubt fill my mind. I had wanted to be a fashion designer my whole life, but after being injured in an accident and splitting up with my boyfriend in my final year of University, my outlook on life turned very negative, and of course impacted my life negatively in all aspects.
I began to doubt my ability as a designer, and of course my doubts were reflected in my work. My tutors would tell me that my work was bad which again made me feel worse. I graduated with a low grade and had little hope of finding a design job as I listened to and absorbed my friends and tutors comments on how difficult it is finding a design job. I moved back home with my parents, and took up a minimum wage job just to get by. I was miserable.
After 8 months of being in this rut, I decided enough was enough! I had practiced The Secret previously in my life and had used it to manifest my desires before I went on this negative spiral. So I dusted off my copies of The Secret and The Power and read them every day until they sank in once more! I even listened to the eBooks as I fell asleep each night.
Before long I saw a design job advertised at a nearby fashion company. That was perfect as it meant I would not need to move away from home, as I did not have the finances to do so. As soon as I saw that job I knew it was mine. I organised my portfolio, practiced interview questions and even prepared the outfit I would be wearing. So when I got the phone call to invite me over for an interview, I was not the least bit surprised!
The interview went amazingly well and I was called less than 30 minutes later to be invited to a second interview with the company’s design director. Again that interview went amazingly well and I knew in my heart that I had the job. In between that last interview and getting the ultimate phone call, which had been a 2 week period, I did not allow any negative thoughts to consume me. I began shopping for a new work wardrobe, bought new stationery and practiced driving to work, as though the job was mine.
I completely believed I had the job and of course I did! By using my imagination I had designed my dream job and now I am living my dream! I am travelling all over the world designing and earning a fantastic salary. I am so grateful to the Universe and for Rhonda Byrne’s teachings. So the advice I would like to pass on to others who are struggling to manifest, is have fun and play pretend and you will soon see it in reality!
