Baby we livin' in the moment

I can honestly say that I've started taking control of my own bus so far in 2014, first with quitting my job. I absolutely hate quitting things. It's the worst feeling to think you're letting someone down. Leaving a job you've been at for a while is even worse when you enjoyed it there. So why leave my job if I liked it there? The work itself was slowly killing my soul, my co-workers were what made coming into the office not complete hell. And who just wants a job? I want a career! I have so much more potential then I was ever going to use in a life time in that position. I appreciate every opportunity management gave me and all of the ways they had adapted the position in an attempt to satisfy my need for more but I was still missing something. I have met so many great people over the last few years and would never have had that without my experience there.

It is time to start my own journey and write the next chapter in my book. I'm looking forward to being 100% accountable for my own income, hours and discipline. That entrepreneurial thirst was passed down to me from my dad and we both enjoy the fact that we can either be proud of our own success or look to see where we have room for improvement.

I would never have entertained the idea of this next career choice without having some really great people in my life. I totally believe that it's not only what you know, it's who you know. Thankfully I know a lot of good people! I'll be spending these next few weeks studying to write my exam for my mortgage brokers license. I have a mortgage rockstar taking me under his wing to show me all the ins and outs of this business he's so passionate about. I'm excited to start this next part of my life and see how far I can take myself and what my limitations are. You're only as good as you let yourself be and I want to leave it all on the table here. Whether you think you can or you can't, you're right. Wish me luck... Or better yet give me a call the next time you (or someone you know) has some mortgage related business they need taken care of (insert shameless plug here).
