Don't worry, be happy

My job interview is this afternoon.  I’m surprisingly calm.  Normally by now I would be becoming increasingly nervous, but I’ve spent my morning visualising myself being calm, confident, and competent (my mother’s advice).  I have a good feeling about this interview.

I think this means I can cross ‘“Don’t fret and worry...” Know that the things you want will come to you’ off my Things to Achieve list.  I’ve also noticed that I’m not worried about the direction my life is going in anymore either.  One of my biggest fears last year was that my life wasn’t going anywhere, and that this was how I was going to spend the rest of my life – always struggling. 

It wasn’t until yesterday that I noticed I haven’t been worried at all about where my life is going.  I don’t know when I stopped worrying about this, but now I understand that it is because I stopped worrying that things are starting to work out for me.  If I had continued to worry, there wouldn’t be a job interview for me to attend today.

It’s a bit of a complicated idea to get my head around, but it makes so much sense. It means I have to accept that the reason my life was such a mess was because I had made it that way through my negative thinking.  There’s no point blaming the Universe for my misfortune because it was only bringing me what I asked for.

The good news is that now that I know all of this, I can change my thinking patterns, and change my life.  I think securing myself a job through today’s interview is an excellent way to start.
