So how did that happen, you ask? Well, the planets aligned in the right house so I cast a job-getting spell during a solar flare.... Not. Though it does feel a bit magical that the job I visualized for myself opened up and I got it!
In case you're wondering, my formula for success is as follows...
I picture my future self: What am I doing? Where am I living? What am I wearing? What is my lifestyle? What kind of work environment am I in? How long is my hair?
Once I have a picture in my mind, I "put it out into the universe." I blog about it, I tell my friends, I seek out people who have what I want and ask them loads of questions. I offer to work for free to try stuff out: volunteering, internships, projects for friends or family. I research resumes of people who do that work & see if it sounds like stuff I want to do or can do.
After a couple practice runs, I apply for jobs that sound related and see what kind of hits I get. If by that time I only get emails that say, "Be your own boss!", "Work from home!", or anything from the military, I know I'm doing something wrong & I start the process over.
Not glamorous, not supernatural, but never fails to keep me on track!
