Did you ever have a feeling -- or maybe not just a feeling -- but pure knowledge that something was going to happen? You just knew it in your soul? This happened to me this summer and I'm just now posting this magical event! I had been working on a training project at work that would be rolled-out in New York, India, and London in August and September. It was a five week training program. I was working on a portion of the training but based on what I was doing, there was no reason for me to travel to any of these sites. However, I was asked to go to New York for a week. This did make sense because I could help train the instructors on my part of the program during the initial train the trainer and help implement it during the first couple of days. While there during that first week, my boss realized they needed some additional help and asked if I could stay on the project there in NY for the entire five weeks. Luckily, my personal life is flexible enough that I was able to do it. I did get to come home a few times. Staying in NY for five weeks itself was unbelievable because I really didn't think there would be any reason for me to be more involved than I was. Since I love to travel and love NY, this was really exciting! I also wanted to be more involved in the project.
Everyone else in the group was continuing on with the training roll-out in London in September. Again, there should have been no reason for me to go. Everyone was talking about what they were going to do in London and I was very jealous. But -- here's where the "feeling" comes in -- I just had this strong feeling or knowledge that I would be going. A couple of weeks into the New York event, my boss again determined that more help was needed and asked if I could go to London for three weeks!!! Of course I could!!! I was excited but I have to say not really surprised. My soul seemed to know all along that I would be going. All my career I have wanted to travel internationally and work globally. I took this job a year ago for this kind of opportunity. Finally, it happened!!
When I got back I immediately went to my vision board. There in the section of travel were the pictures of the Union Jack, passport, and Big Ben I had pasted on there way back in January!
