“At this, job got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in worship and said: Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart. The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised.’”Job 1:20-21
Dear GOD, I will praise You no matter what is happening in my life-in good times and in bad times. Even in the midst of loss, disappointment, sickness, or failure, I lift up praise to You and Your Name on High.
Lately life has been difficult in many ways. I probably don’t need to expound any further since it should be clear from my last few posts what I mean. However one part of my life that has been great is my job. Not only does it provide a distraction of the mind and hands from the hard parts of home life, but it is an amazing job. I get to work at the cusp of new technology. Olive Tree has some great things in store. I can’t say too much, because we can’t let competitors steal our ideas, but suffice it to say that I think Olive Tree is going to raise the bar for Bible software.
One of my jobs is to be a sort of project manager for the conversion and formatting department. That is why, if you look at my Twitter feed, you often see new product announcements. On top of being excited about the direction our software design is going, I am enthusiastic about some of the new products we have in store.
All this is to say that Olive Tree has been a real high point in my year. I enjoy what I’m doing there. I love being a company that puts out Bible software at the leading edge of technology. And I feel very blessed to be a part of such a great team of people. God has blessed me greatly in this regard.
I have ultimately made a decision… a final decision. An extreme rarity among my brainwaves. I called Cypher, the director of the NY Circus Arts Academy in New York City and placed myself in a 4 day trial training class to see if I would be a good candidate for the 2 year professional training program majoring in aerial circus arts.
I have been working for great employers at a beautiful hotel in a beautiful location. I just fell into the job about 6 years ago. It was originally supposed to be temporary, just a way to relieve that ‘live a normal life’ itch I had since high school… I’ve been living a normal life since 2001.
I am now 26, and still making $400 a week. Quite comfortable in the little life I’ve created with my great husband. We rent an offbeat little cottage, pay our bills on time and have plans to have an actual wedding sometime soon, once we can scrounge the money together. He’s in construction and almost chopped his thumb off a couple days ago. Ugh! I really wish he didn’t have to work at all; all I want to do is stay home all day, snuggle on our 2nd hand, blue wingback couch and watch Laurel & Hardy until we fall asleep. This is pretty much what we do now when I get home from work at 11pm. During the day I open the craft shop that some of the creative hotel employees and I have put together. The shop doesn’t make much money but at least it’s a creative outlet. To get back to my creative roots, I have dabbled in community theatre and won first place for voice in the local talent shows for both 2008 & 2009 that I have participated. I’m pretty proud to have made front page of the local papers quite often for my vocal happenings.
I have had many different aspirations and good intentions for my career, but I haven’t been able to get to the point of moving. Something always got in the way of the first step. Either money or time or surgery (I had my gallbladder out in May ‘09) or another branch idea off of the first idea, etc, etc, etc…. This time I am going to actually commit to changing my life….you may be thinking: “Yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s what everyone says and then months pass without anything happening.” I say the same thing all the time to my mother when she says she’s going to lose 20 pounds starting next week. Then 2 & 5 & 8 months roll by.
I have committed myself so that if I veer off it, I will completely embarrass myself if I don’t go through with it. I have told everyone I know what I’m going to do. Building it up so much that now I have to at least try my very best.
And so I will…I will.
Tomorrow I have to work from 8am-noon, with a break from noon-3pm, then back to work from 3-11pm. In that break time and all my break times I will be training myself to be as prepared for this week trial as possible. I have not worked out in quite a while so there will be hurting, and tears…I think more frustration than anything.
Wish me luck and check back tomorrow for aching bones & shin splints.
I was a month late being born because there was just SO MUCH TO DO IN THERE! But once I was ready to be born it took less than an hour…
A wise man once said the circumstances of your birth dictate how you run your life. For me that means I don’t do ANYTHING until I’M ready but once I’m ready it’s balls to the wind!
I’ve been contemplating doing some public writing and an advice column for a while and now I am ready. I chose the name “Deviled Angel” because it represents the fact that we are all human and make mistakes but are essentially good people.
I’ve started this blog as a service to continue to share my talent but also to offer advice.
Each blog will start with a little story about me or someone else, an anecdote, a quote, question etc. and I invite you to write in with your questions/comments.
My answers will include a comment from my little DEVIL and a comment from my little ANGEL. The “Devil Voice” is provided to diffuse stress from your problem. The “Angel Voice” is just my opinion..
BOTH PIECES OF ADVICE ARE PURELY FOR ENTERTAINMENT! I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL COUNSELOR OR DOCTOR OF ANY SORT!
The ultimate decision on what to do about your problem is yours and you are responsible for the choices you make. But I always have “two cents” to offer and a chuckle to boot. :0)
Let’s help each other laugh and make life FABULOUS again!
If you’re on the hunt for a new job that fits the bill- this article will help you get your ‘job magnet’ turned on high and get the power of spiritual energy behind you in your journey!
To work is to be an active part of the whole cycle of abundance. You deserve to have a job that receives your unique style of creativity, energy, problem-solving and strength, and a job that compensates you equally for the work you do! Finding a job that suits you is as important as finding a life partner who you’re compatible with… many of us spend 8-12 hours per day at work- and if this isn’t a joyful, progressive, and ‘right feeling’ place to be, the consequences of depression, lethargy, illness, lack, and frustration are not far from manifesting.
In this article, I’d like to present some spiritual and metaphysical pieces of wisdom and practice that will help you call forth the job that will serve you as you serve it. Set your expectation meter on HIGH- and get ready to connect with a position of abundance!
Clarify The Goal
Pretend your new job is going to be like a new relationship. What exactly are you looking for? Start making a list of specifics… how far is the commute? what does your average day look like? What tasks will you be performing? How closely will you work with others? What new skills will you learn? Be as specific and realistic as possible given the type of work you choose to do. Once you’ve completed your list, come back to it every day and re-read it. If anything needs to be adjusted, removed, or added- do it! Allow the list to be dynamic.
Energy Is The Best Employee!
Take Intentional Action!
In spiritual practices, energy always flows where the attention goes. This means that in order to get the energy of your new job, you need to make sure you’re being attentive and putting energy into finding it. Spend time every single day looking at classified ads, sending out resumes, talking to people about your search, and thinking good thoughts about the future. Even if you’ve hired a headhunter to find a position for you, still be active in the process by requesting daily updates from them and investigating companies online that your representative has selected for you. Be intentional about finding work- don’t treat it as a process that should find you- we call it ‘job hunting‘ for a reason! If you choose to use prayer as a method for calling forth work, I am right behind you on that one.. but consider praying for guidance, empowerment, and wisdom in actively finding the right job- not for having it delivered to your doorstep.
Every Action Has An Equal Reaction… What’s Your Reaction Going To Be?
Check Your Paradigm
The truth about why many people have a hard time finding work is that in their core they don’t believe they deserve anything great. It’s imperative that you spend time each day checking your thoughts and beliefs. If you aren’t confident that you deserve the very best job for YOU as an individual- replete with great pay, awesome benefits, amazing co-workers, and sky-high potential for promotion… then we need to talk! Remind yourself consistently that for every person on the planet, a new need is created- and due to that new need, a new job is out there somewhere with your name on it. There is more than enough for all of us, and ‘lack mentality’ is only going to help you attract a seriously lack-luster job!
In a reality filled with infinite possibility- you truly can have whatever you desire!
Interview On The Astral Plane
In meditation, call forth the perfect situation in to your mind once you have what that is clear. Place yourself in the fullness of work and notice all the small details. Have conversations with you boss and ask questions- allowing responses to come through without judgment as truth. If anything funky happens in your visualization that doesn’t feel right for you… take note and take accountability. Go back to your list of qualities and start re-writing. Anything that manifests in this meditative state is either something you’ve consciously asked for- or a fear that’s manifesting. The sections above should help rid yourself of fear and get positive, while clarifying the things you do want to attract!
Spiritual meditation is the wise person’s true magic!
Someone’s Cooking…Beacon?
Select a stone or other object to serve as a sort of ’still point energy beacon’ for your goal. Let this item remind you whenever you interact with it about your goals- and give it the power to be a lucky talisman… drawing the right guidance and connections to you like a magnet. Once you land your amazing job- hand it over to someone you love who needs some help finding theirs!
Your order’s up!
Watch Out… It’s Contagious!
Have a friend who’s got a sweet job? Take them out to dinner or invite them over for tea. The old axiom ‘you are who you associate with’ is very true- and by spending time with people who have the money, connections, lifestyle, attitude, health, spiritual connection, etc. that YOU want you’ll start emulating them and learning subtle secrets to big success!
Can I rub your lucky attitude?
Live The Dream
If you find yourself sleeping in and lazing about because you aren’t working right now, you’re slowly and silently digging your paradigm into a dark hole. Keep waking up on time for work, making a good breakfast, catching up with the news, and getting yourself ready for a productive and abundant day. If you live in the energy of a positive job- you’ll manifest that job… there’s no way to avoid it!
I hit the snooze button too many times this morning and slept through living a higher state of abundant being!
Hand Me That Box Cutter, Will Ya?
If you’re living in a box about your career- now is the time to break free! Source very well may be telling you that your old belief about the work ‘you must do’ is a lie! Are you sure you’re doing what you want? Is fear and low self-esteem preventing you from approaching the job/career you truly want? Right now, give yourself permission to dream as wildly as possible about what you’d spend your days doing to earn money and participate in society in any way you’d truly love to. Got it? Now go get it!
If humans were meant to live in boxes, we would probably be more square!
Keep On Keepin’ On…
The process leading to your perfect job may have some history… and there may be some more time ahead before it manifests. In the meantime, you are in control of the health of your body, mind, emotions, and spirit in the matter. Continue to do the things you love (even if you have to scale them back due to financial concern). Be creative, try new things, love yourself- and most of all, love healing yourself! Try to enjoy the process of finding work- because it just means a change is needed and you’ve entered a higher state of being! If you find yourself in a depressive or anxiety-ridden state, talk to friends for support or connect with a top-notch mental health provider. Sometimes just venting and getting some feedback makes all the difference in the world. Remember that in you deserving to be abundant in the limitless- you also deserve joy!
Putting a brick on the gas pedal does NOT count as having cruise control!
With blessings of abundance, progress, and joyful participation in the cycle of propserity…

因此很多网友介绍说，关键不在于答案是什么，而是你分析问题，得出答案的方式。真的是一语中的！麦肯锡在”what we look for“中，第一条就提到“Problem solving”，那么它的重要性也就不言而喻了。雅虎知识堂上讲：“麦肯锡公司在招聘员工时最注重分析能力。麦肯锡总是在寻找具有分析思考能力的人，他们可以把问题分解成几部分。麦肯锡想要的是他们知道如何把问题组织起来的证据。同时还要看商业判断能力，以及这个人明白他自己的解决方案的含义的感受。这也是麦肯锡为什么总喜欢用案例的原因。”
