Hi everyone,
I read The Secret just over six months ago and have slowly started to incorporate it into my life. I am working in a dead end job that I do not enjoy, but for the time being put up with it as I am able to drop my daughter to and from school and earn a higher than average salary which I am grateful for. The downside is that I know it isn’t what I am meant to be doing. I asked myself, “What would I like to do?” And I knew I wanted to become a social worker, so I enrolled in a degree in social work part-time and so far am loving it. The class timetable somehow seems to work out for me and I am still able to work. I still however had a strong yearning to get out of my office job.
A girl I study with said I should apply to an organisation that specialised in helping under privileged children, which sounded exactly like what I was looking for. To cut a long story short, I was offered my dream job, however was unable to take it because in the meantime my husband unfortunately lost his job and I was unable to accept the position. I called them to tell them this and they asked if I would like to work casually on the weekends or evening some days. I couldn’t believe how accommodating they were to me!
I started last week and it is the most rewarding job I have ever done, it just feels right. I think back and I remember The Secret and how I would say to myself how much I wanted this job. It all worked out brilliantly in the end. I am able to support my family financially, study, and help young children. Thank you!
