Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it's off to work we go

My new, more attainable goal is to try and blog once a month.  Since it's March 31st I'm just barely making this one in time.  Nothing like leaving it until the last minute, Ash.  My January and February posts were all about creating my own destiny and the steps I was taking to make it happen.  After months of contemplating, planning, studying and making life changing decisions I can say I have finally, officially met my goal of starting my new career as a mortgage associate.

There was nothing more nerve wracking than quitting my job and throwing caution to the wind to take this step.  I spent the month of February extensively studying for my licensing exam and got my results back last week that I had passed and could apply for my license.  I spent some days in my new home base at The Mortgage Associates office last week meeting the crew and soaking up all the ins and outs of the business that my mentor, Steel, could start squishing into my brain.  That dude knows his shit.  Like way smarter than I ever thought some barbell slamming gym-junkie could be ;) (just kidding - but seriously the guy has already impressed me with his extensive knowledge on the subject).  That lucky dude gets to spend his days sitting across a desk from me partaking in all my daily antics.

I have already been fortunate enough to have people support my career choice and choose me as the mortgage professional that they want to use.  I'm super excited to help these people save some money and find them the best interest rates and mortgage products to meet their needs.  I'm really grateful to be given the opportunity to show them my dedication, reliability and genuine care that I have to offer them.  I love that previous industries that I have worked in really compliment this new career and I'm able to connect with all of the awesome people that I know.

I hope you are just as happy with your career choice as I am, and if not I hope you find the courage that it took me to make a change that does.
