How is is possible to stay positive when experiencing a real crisis

[Neev]

I've been unemployed for 10 months, no money, living somewhere I don't want to be. I've had no live during this time as I'm away from my friends. I do work out every day at the gym to increase my positive feelings. Am really trying with this LOA process, but at times I feel such despair and it seems unrealistic just to 'wish' a dream job. I've been doing lots of studying but still get really down when I check my search engines every day and no opps still!
I apply for ones that are way lower pay than i was on previously, and don't excite me. I got to 2nd interview recently on my dream job, but got knocked out cos didn't have the relavant experience and lots of candidates that did. The LOA tells me I should just visualize and let go...but that seems so irresponsible! Any advice would be most welcome!-o;)

Hi..

I think what Im about to tell you will definitely help you. Do let me know how this goes.

Im in the jon search process myself and without too much luck of late & waiting for that dream job offer , just like you. Although my goal of this dream job hasnt manifested yet, I am confident that I can help you.

1st thing to keep in mind is that you will make it happen. That is it. No other options exist. The only variable factor is time. You dont know when exactly, but you should know what is your destiny. If you truly believe that this is what you are meant to do, you will. You can't force yourself to believe. Either you believe or you don't believe. If you don;t believe this job is your destiny, then may be something else is. But you need to feel what your deserve. I'll give you an example. In my case, this job I am visualising is my destiny. I know it. Nobody told me to think like this. I knew these things even before I read LOA stuff. So I know that this is what I will do. It will come when the time is right.
2nd, I don't know where you live but if you have your own room, clean it. There should be no clutter anywhere. If you are a woman, clean out your purse. There should be no clutter in it.

3rd, get a journal/note book and write down things that you are grateful for. My experience tells me that what I write grows. So, everyday try to write 5 things at least that you are so happy about. Once you do that and mean it, there would be more things to be happy about. You can find infinite things to be happy about, once you start. Let me tell you some things I am happy about. (I spoke to this guy today and signed up for a program that will basically help me manage my money better and eliminate stuff I owe to credit cards; I love my black nail polish, I love the red nail polish on my toes, I love my dogs, I love my bed, I love how everybody likes me, I love how I am taking action everyday, I love the wisdom I gained from you tube, I love that I came across the book Harmonic Wealth by James Arthur Ray, I love that I discovered the library recently, I love how I feel refreshed after a good night’s sleep, I love cooking, I love the money that I have, I love the beautiful sky at sunset, I love the clouds in the sky.. I could go on forever ). I’ve been doing this for a while, so it comes naturally. At first, it didn’t make sense. So you need to try and see what works for you. But I am sure there is something that you can be happy about. May be you are happy that you got a good work out, may be you are happy for your 6 pack abs, happy for a good lunch, happy that someone kissed you, just try and see.
4th, chant SHREEM often. Its amazing, it will bring you money. I used to struggle with money and my rent got reduced by 25$ and some other expenses got eliminated.
5th , take your mind to the future. Imagine sometimes who you are. When you look around, say THIS IS WHO I USED TO BE. But in your mind’s eye you are in your dream job, feeling great, smiling, and content with total peace of mind.
6th, if you don’t exactly have a money problem, donate. Donate something anything regularly. I donate 5 $ every month to help the doggies of this world. Whenever you donate with love, the money comes back to you multiplied. But don’t need to expect it..just enjoy life …it will come..But you need to do this consistently and with your heart in something that means something to you.

Anyway, I’m sure you will feel better. LOA is not just a concept. It is an art that you need to master. Its an ongoing journey throughout life. Let me know how this exercise goes, and if I can help some more.
