"The Secret"...did it work?

Okay, a while ago I posted a blog after reading the book "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne. It was such an inspirational and postive book that really had me thinking. It make me start to think about my life and certain situations in a different light. I began to word things differently instead of "I don't want" or focusing on what I don't want to happen...I started focusing on what "I did want" and what I needed for my life.

About six weeks ago, I began interviewing for a BIG position. Since the day I got the call about the interview...I began telling myself that I got the job. I would stay positive and not let my thoughts drift of to things such as...what if I don't get the job? I stayed focused and on track. I went through three interviews with the organization over a six week period. Today, I found out that I got the position. It was kind of a weird feeling because I wasn't really supposed to hear anything until Wednesday but when I heard the message on the answering machine I just knew that I got it. I called the person back and immediately she offered me the position. I don't know if some call it arrogance, confidence, or intuition but I knew. Maybe my positive attitude carried over and was really starting to change my life in certain ways. Either way, I got what I wanted. I am hoping that the vision board I created that more things happen for me. Don't get me wrong....I am truly blessed for what I have and will never take them for granted. However, there are just one or two things that I want for myself during my lifetime that would make my life complete.

I know some may read this as me not thinking that God had anything to do with getting this new position. That is in no way, shape, or form what I am saying in this blog. God has everything to do with my life and what has happened in my life that has led me to this point. I just used my prayer along with what I learned in "The Secret" together to make my thoughts even more powerful. There is nothing wrong with being positive, thinking positive, and hoping good things will come from it. Sometimes things happen and it takes time before we are met with new situations that are meant for us. Sometimes we need this time either to reflect or it could be that we aren't really ready for this new path. It has been ten months since I resigned from my last position and since then have never had any regrets. I was in a job that wasn't the right fit and I didn't feel comfortable. Now, I truly feel like I found the place that I am going to stay. It just feels right!!! :)

To those of you who supported me, sent thoughts and prayers, and even wished me luck....thank you!!! It meant more than you know and now I feel ready to re-enter the work force with a new appreciation and determination. Being a manager and in a management position is something I new that I was meant to do. To work with others and help advise and support them to help them be the best workers they can be. I am ready so stay tuned....
