Beginning a New Life
Submitted by: Nicole
EW, NJI am a recent college graduate, and happily engaged to the man of my dreams. We are both young, and with the economy the way it is today, nothing was looking too good for us. We have been engaged for two years, and still have not started planning a wedding, due to the fact that we wanted to be financially stable before we jump into anything.
I was starting to become discouraged. While my fiancé has a job and is working, he didn’t make a lot of money, and I was only working a part time job. I started reading a bit about The Secret, and decided to apply it to something small and fun to see if it would work.
While at a charity event, I bought raffle tickets and put a bunch into a jar, where I would win a basket full of Rusk hair products, and simply said to myself, “I’m going to win… that basket is mine.” Never really winning anything, what happened???? I won the basket. I was sold! So I decided to apply The Secret to something BIGGER and life altering!
I told my fiancé that after I graduate, I will have a full time job waiting for me, and that he was going to find a better job that was going to make him more money. With both of us working, we will start planning our wedding by mid-June. We both agreed that this is what we would think of and know would happen.
Time passed a bit and thats when it all started to happen. After speaking with my bosses at work, they offered me a full time position in which I would receive full benefits, sick/vacation time, and holiday time. Although I am starting at the bottom, they assured me I would advance in the company! Soon after that, job opportunity after job opportunity was arising for my fiancé, and now he is working a job where he makes double the pay! Once I started working full time, and he took on this new job, we booked our wedding at the end of June, and now we are getting married next November!
So much happened, so fast, all because I decided to change my perspective on things and think positive. Now I try my hardest to apply it to everything and I know good things will come out of it!!
