The Law of Attraction: Your Secret Weapon
by Janet White
You may think that hearing “You’re hired!” is a matter of luck – you’ve got to say just the right thing in just the right way, have all the stars aligned in your favor and pray all the other candidates mess things up, and there are so many things that can go wrong that even the thought of job hunting makes you ill.

What if I were to tell you that it not only can be easy to get the job of your dreams, it can fast, empowering and fun? You can literally attract to yourself your dream job though your thinking by using the Law of Attraction.

The Law of Attraction states that you attract to yourself anything you believe, focus on or give feeling to. It is an infallible, absolute universal law, and works exactly the same way for everyone all the time.

For example, if you believe that job hunting is hard, it is hard for you because you believe it. If you believe job interviews are personal interrogations, there is intense competition for the job you want and only a limited number of “openings,” you’re right!

Since you experience whatever you believe to be true, you have to change your thoughts and beliefs to have different experiences. You do this by consciously, intentionally and deliberately thinking new thoughts over and over until they become your new beliefs.

Be aware of what you’re thinking and saying, and if you catch yourself having a negative thought, instantly replace it with a positive one. It may feel strange at first, but do it enough times, and those negative thoughts simply will disappear and you’ll start seeing demonstrations of your new beliefs. Here are some examples:

Negative Thoughts/Positive Thoughts
Without a job, I’m nothing.
My job is what I do for a living, not who I am.

My background is a jumble of job hopping.
I have a diverse range of experiences.

I don’t know anyone in the industry.
I know a lot more people than I realize, and I can meet more.

No one is hiring.
Great opportunities for me are everywhere.

I’ve been doing this so long it’s the only thing I know.
I had to learn how to do my current job, and I can learn something else. Now, what schools provide the training I want?

What if I get a terrific job and blow it?
The only way people learn is by making mistakes, and I certainly make my share. I’m
ready for more learning!

I’m too old to change.
With age comes wisdom and insight, so I’m really wise and brilliant!

I’m scared of rejection.
People have said “no” to me since I was a baby and somehow I survived. Besides, the people who say “no” to me are entitled to be wrong.

The competition’s tough, and there are better qualified people than me out there looking for work.
I now accept rewarding, fulfilling and financially satisfying work perfectly suited to my personality, experience, education and expertise.

I’ll have to give up too much to make a career change at my age, and it will take years for me to recoup my lost income.
I’m willing to make whatever lifestyle changes are necessary for me to pursue my dream. Besides, it won’t be long before I’m up to speed in my new field.

No one wants to hire anyone who’s been fired.
Everyone’s been fired at some point, so I’m just like everyone else!

I lose every job I get.
Jobs are like relationships – just because I’m with someone for a while doesn’t mean it was supposed to be forever.

What if I get fired or laid off again?
It’s only a job. I’ll get another.

Start using the Law of Attraction by focusing on what you want, not on what you don’t want, and you’ll be amazed how fast and easily that dream job – or anything else you desire – will become yours.
