Change

“Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back.  Maybe, you have to let go of who you were to become who you will be.”
-Carrie, Sex and the City

Jobs take a major toll out of me.  Maybe it’s my personality (my empathy, my desire to achieve and to be the best I can be, my no nonsense approach to things); maybe it’s because I was raised by entrepreneurs.  All I know is I get weighed down being in a job that doesn’t teach me anything and is full of drama.  I can’t live like that– to me, life is too short.

I’ve lasted more than a year and a half at my current job.  That’s pretty long for me.  I needed a change…I quit.

I made sure to get all my ducks in a row first:

• A little savings.
• Started selling janitorial for my family’s company.  I so want to keep improving myself for the business world.  With this, I am learning sales, setting myself up for comfortable income while pursing my endeavors and helping my family.
• Signed myself up for 3 real estate classes at my local community college so I’m on the path to get my real estate agent license.
• Started a company with my wonderful boyfriend with the intent of helping the Museum where we used to work and all the other cultural institutions in San Diego.  We love the cultural scene in San Diego and want to see it thrive!

Change is exciting.  Change is new.  Change is good, especially when you need it.  Sometimes you have to let go of who you are to become who you will be.  What can you do to bring positive change to your life?
