Eventually I sent the e-mail, reasoning that I had been presented with an opportunity and it was down to me to grab it. That evening I placed a cosmic order asking that I would be successful and my story would be featured. The following day an e-mail came back saying that my story had been submitted to the Editor for consideration. I put the whole thing out of my mind.
Monday morning and another e-mail - the Editor thought my story was fascinating and wanted to feature it. I was asked if I could do a telephone interview the following day and whether I would be available for a photo shoot on the Friday! Excited was an understatement.
The interview went well and last Friday I went off to the Centre to meet the photographer and a stylist - yes, I was getting a make-over too. Well how fabulous was all this, another successful cosmic order.
The stylist brought two dresses and a pair of shoes with her! I took the bag off to the ladies to change but - ugghh - not me at all. I was persuaded to wear them but I felt uncomfortable in the dresses and the shoes were far too high for me. As I tottered about I began to feel like Miss Piggy!! Why hadn't I cosmic ordered a successful photo shoot for the good of ALL concerned?
The article should be in the newspaper soon and I have to say I am a bit apprehensive - I just hope they choose the most flattering photo.
But there's the lesson - I hurriedly put in a cosmic order but I hadn't thought it through first. I hadn't been specific about what I wanted the outcome to be and I certainly hadn't managed my expectations.
Needless to say another order was placed that evening.
