how I got a $35,000 raise with my new job

2 replies
Warriors,

I just do IM on the side. I suppose I don't need to but it's just in my blood. I'm fascinated by SEO, copy writing and the dream of working on my own terms.

But, I am blessed with a great day job and recently landed an even better job that pays so much more than my current job.

A few years ago I watched the Secret and laughed out loud. I thought it was garbage & I especially chuckled at Bob Proctor. I figured "Here's a guy who has done nothing but peddle books about making money his whole life! No wonder he's rich!".

But I was wrong. I was completely wrong. I want to just share with you and hope that all of you in turn can see the power of the law of attraction.

I have yet to truly tap into this power - I still have so many beliefs that are negative and limiting and holding me back that I have yet to release.

But I slowly began to realize that my own negativity and cynicism were stopping me from getting more in life. I stumbled across a great interview with Bob Proctor (I can't link to it because I'm still new to the WF) where he discussed 'polarity' and attitudes and beliefs and what the Law was really about.

I decided to shift my focus. For the last 3yrs I decided to focus on the most lucrative areas of IT (cloud computing, virtualization and storage) and to spend more time "following the money" and less time complaining, gossiping and engaging and destructive behavior.

The end result is the job I have in hand. It pays a significant amount of money (but has nothing to do with internet marketing). On top of that, my current employer has counter offered and matched the job.

I attribute this entirely to the Law of Attraction. I shifted my focus by just a few degrees in my career to what works and I'm a literal job magnet. My new skills have recruiters calling me all the time asking for my resume or to interview for some job or another.

I'm not an expert in the Law of Attraction but this is what it has come to mean to me:

1) The Law of Attraction leads to action - When I shifted my focus I was compelled to take action and specialize in this field. It was natural and I didn't struggle to make it happen.

2) You are limited only by your psychology.

When I resigned from my job - I felt guilty. I realized that I not only felt guilt but also didn't feel that I deserved the counter offer my employer was offering me.

These are just more negative beliefs I need to let go of in the coming weeks and months.

Anyway - if you were a cynic like me give it another shot. You owe it to yourself.

Our beliefs shape our decisions and our decisions shape our life (stealing from Tony Robbins here).

The Law is true. There is a science to this and it will change your life if you let go of your fears and take the 1st step.

Your friend,

William

    Agreed on both points. I think action is not always required, but you always have to be prepared and willing to take action as necessary.

    Congratulations on your raise.
