When I stopped 'competing', I was offered a promotion

What do you think is the most important thing for changing your life?

I recently realized that one of the answers is

'to stop competing'.


I started practicing the law of attraction when my child stopped going to school. Since then, my environment has changed rapidly, and my child returned to school in half a year.

Now, they go to school every day and seem to be having a great time with their friends.

Since then,

I realized that it's okay to wish for what I want!
I am the protagonist of my own life!

So, I thought about various things, including money, and what kind of life I would like to have.

However, at one point, the investment profits that had been increasing suddenly stopped, there were many troubles at work, and I felt like I had hit a slump and come to a standstill.

Then, I went back to basics and started being grateful for what I have now.


And I realized something.

What I was lacking was...

'To stop competing with others and wish for their happiness'

If you live in today's society, competition is normal, isn't it?

When you're a student, there are daily tests and entrance exams; when you become an adult, you compete in job hunting, and beyond that, there's who is a better talker, who has more friends, who is cuter, who is cooler—the list is endless.

But no matter how hard you try, you cannot keep winning forever.

Saying that you will stop 'competing' doesn't mean that if you enter a piano contest, you should just not put in any effort.

You just need to think that you will give the best performance you possibly can.

And you should also think, 'I hope all the other participants can give a wonderful performance too!'


My company is also a series of 'competitions'.

If you work hard, you get recognized in front of everyone and receive money or gift cards.

When that happens, it's natural to want to work harder than those around you and to want to be evaluated more highly than others.


Actually, there is a miracle that happened because I stopped this 'competition'.

When handing over work to others or teaching new employees, there are manuals and knowledge that I have spent years struggling to obtain and finally created.

Can you easily hand that over to someone else?

Especially the more you struggled, the harder it feels to give it away for free.

And on top of that, your boss and those around you don't even know that you were the one who provided that information.

The people around you,

"You learn the work so quickly!"
"The new hire this time is amazing!"

They get praised using the information and knowledge I worked so hard to acquire. I can't help but think that's unfair.

Even while thinking, "I'm so narrow-minded," I still find myself troubled.

However, something I decided recently,

"Graduating from comparing myself to others"

After thinking about it a lot and gathering my courage,

"We aren't living to compete. If you make someone happy, it comes back to you."

Thinking that, I organized and compiled the manuals and knowledge I had and gave them to the new hire without holding anything back.

Honestly, I didn't hand them over feeling 100% convinced and refreshed.

"I often hear people say they don't want others to go through the same hardships they did, and I think that's amazing."

I was still feeling a bit uneasy.


But then, a miracle happened.

Suddenly, a promotion was decided!

At my company, it is very difficult for even specialists to be promoted from non-management to management, and after 20 years at the company, I had thought I was fine without getting promoted and becoming busy, but suddenly my boss said,

"You can do it, so why don't you try?
There's a perfect position for you!"

That's what they told me.

It was a development I truly never expected.

Beyond that, good things started happening to my husband and children little by little.


There is a limit to how much you can change your life with a narrow perspective that only wishes for your own happiness.


Come to think of it, when the first manifestation occurred,

I happened to be at a hospital specializing in children and saw many children with intractable diseases,

"A future will definitely come where all these children can return home and live normal lives."

That was the wish I had made.

Thinking back on that time, lately I had only been thinking about what I wanted for myself.

The concept of 'Oneness' often mentioned in 'manifestation'.

It is the idea that we are all connected.

Broaden your perspective, wish for the happiness of many people, and stop 'competing'.

At that moment, life might just start moving in unexpected ways.


Do you have a wish you want to come true right now?
If you do, why not stop competing and wish for the happiness of others?
