Have you read the book entitled the science of getting rich by Wallace D. Wattles? I’ve read about this book two years ago and like every good book that I’ve read it remains in my memory. No I don’t own the book I’ve just read it in the house of my In-laws. During that time I don’t have a job and I’ve just given birth to my first child. I applied to business institutions and schools in our City and it took me about 6 months to get a job.
My primary concern is to get a job within the City only because I want to be near my baby and my husband. It took me about more than eight job interviews to get a job. So just imagine the rejections that I have experienced before getting the job that I have now. Anyway reading that book has in a way empowered me to go further or maybe I was born to think positively.
These are the points that I got from the book. It says that we must use our mind and imagine what we want. It is through imagining that things that we want that drives us to push farther. It also says to have a creative thought in using the formless substance around us. We must also think positively and surround ourselves with great things to achieve more. We must always be grateful with what we have and what we will have and become because all great things comes to those who are grateful. Never worry or think negatively because it blocks creative thought. We must also be efficient in everything we do and never hurry but take one step at a time.
If you fail don’t dwell on your failure but move on and forget about it. You might not realize that it happened for a purpose and that something much greater is coming your way. Never be competitive because it will block creative thought. What you do or sell should enrich the lives of people you deal with. Aspire to be rich and never ever accept that it cannot be done. It is only your will that can make you what you will become. Your will cannot be impose to other person because that is coercion and you can only impose it to yourself. Prayer can strengthen your faith but it is only you who can answer your prayer. Click here to get your free copy.

How I got my Job
I got my job two years ago and this is how it happened. One day my husband and I was just strolling and then we came by a new three story building of a financial institution and he said to me why don’t you try to ask if they are hiring? So we went inside and I asked an employee there if they are still hiring. She told me to submit an application to the manager and the next day I applied. After one month I was called and informed that there will be an examination. When the day of the examination arrived I was prepared because I reviewed on my own. I know that job examinations required basic skills such as IQ, abstracts, Grammar, clerical skills, mathematical equations and personality tests. The examination was hard because we were given minutes only to answer many questions. To top it all there were about fifty applicants taking the test and I know from experience that only the top ten passers will be interviewed. So there I was praying and hoping to pass the examination and eventually get hired.
A month after the test to my surprised I was called again for a panel interview and I was prepared. Thinking beforehand what are the supposed to be questions that might be asked from me and practicing what is my possible answers. There where about ten applicants that were interviewed including me. Weeks passed by and I was called again and informed that I was hired. My husband and I were very happy for the news because that would mean that we can already rent a house of our own. During that time we lived with my parents because his income could not suffice if we live on our own. I later found out that there were only two of us who got the job and thank god I was one of the two.

My friend comes home from Dubai
Finally I’ve found the right template for my two blogs from blogger buster and I’m finally satisfied with the lay out. Now that I have finalized the look of my blog I will have to concentrate more on posting and promoting. Yesterday my best friend arrived from Dubai and as usual she gave me a box of 400 grams of my favorite chocolate to my delight. She surprised me in the office and she asked for my help because she wanted to buy a house. She said that she will be coming back to Dubai after two weeks time to resume her job there and she will leave behind her two children here in the Philippines.
We have been friends since sixth grade and it’s true that friendship lingers on even if we don’t communicate often. Even if we have taken up different college degree in the past we went to the same school and still hang out often during our school days. After college we went our separate ways because of our career but our friendship is still there. When I think about it we have been friends for almost 18 years already. When we were still single we slept in each others house when we have time and it only stops when she got married. There was period of adjustment when she got married because she could not be with me most of the time, I know that family comes first. Now we both have two children and we don’t hang out anymore because she is working and living in Dubai. We have occasional emails and greet each other through yahoo messenger.
