A Job Against Odds.

south london Uk26 year old who found herself again.
I quit my job as a dental nurse in February without having another job lined up, which wasn’t the best decision. I felt that I deserved and wanted better.
The first month of unemployment was okay because I had some money saved up, but then things started to get difficult. I realized that I no longer wanted to work in dentistry after 8 years, and I was feeling depressed.
By June, I still hadn’t found a job and was starting to panic. I thought that I was applying the law of attraction, but I wasn’t seeing any results. I was also not eligible for government assistance because I had left my job voluntarily. I had bills to pay, and I felt like I had put myself in a tough spot. To make things worse, I felt like some people were happy to see me struggling, especially those from my old workplace. I was feeling really low and didn’t know how to go on without any income.
I revisited the concept of the law of attraction and realized that my visualizations and thoughts were missing something important, emotions. I read that it’s helpful to get into a positive emotional state and visualize for at least 16 seconds, and to use binaural beats. So, I started watching something that made me laugh and then visualized myself getting a job, really feeling happy, and even smiling. I did this every morning and night for about a week, and then something unexpected happened.
One day, I had a job interview with a company that I had visualized, and things went exactly how I had hoped, which was surprising for me because I was used to expecting the worst. The interview itself only lasted 15 minutes, but we ended up talking for over an hour about everything except the job. I left feeling really positive about it, and then, not long after, a friend called and asked if I could start a trial at her workplace that same day. Even though I was desperate for a job, I didn’t want to go back to dentistry, and I was hoping to hear back about the job I had just interviewed for. I went home feeling happy and surprised.
Shortly after, I received a phone call saying that an online business and administration course that I wanted to take was now available to me for free. The course had originally cost £900, but they offered it to me for free as an apology for the delays and frustrations I had experienced. I was ecstatic because it was a way for me to transition out of dentistry. Not long after that, I also received a text from the job center asking me to come in for an interview. I had almost given up, but suddenly everything was falling into place. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
To make a long story short, I got the job on the same day as the interview, even though they still had over 100 people to interview. They felt that I was perfect for the job and offered me my desired salary along with a free gym pass. I cried tears of joy when I got off the phone; the 5 months of depression had disappeared in an instant.
I want to help others achieve the same because I know how hard it is to go through this alone. I was crying every day and feeling like a failure, but now I feel new. Thank you, Universe. I am still in shock. I love you all, and please feel free to ask for help. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
