New Beginnings

I've spent the last several days motivating myself for this new chapter in my life. Tomorrow, I fully anticipate waking up way earlier than I normally do, and not on purpose. I suppose that is pretty typical of any type of major change. I don't want to start using a bunch of cliches and metaphors, but this is a brand new start for me and I plan to treat it as such.

My mom took me shopping this afternoon. Granted, I'm 29 years old so that might seem ridiculous. However, my mother is excited that her little baby boy is starting a new job so she bought me some dress shirts, shoes, a tie and a couple of belts. Who am I to say no to that. On a side note, my mom read my stuff and loves what I'm doing and in particularly how much I love my fiance Kristen. I have to agree.

Here I am poised on the eve of my leap into the world of commercial insurance. I want this to get to a point where I can give pertinent information regarding my successes and things that I need to work on. At the same time, I want to address specific parts of my previous jobs that I did not like and why they have brought me to this point. I do that so those that read this blog can possibly identify my plights with their own and maybe see things that I should have done that they can do differently. We'll see.

As of right now though, I went for a jog to clear my head and really focus on the fact that this is a new CAREER. This is not another job. I will not be let down. I am bound and determined to succeed and I will do whatever it takes to indeed do that. I want people who read this to be able to relate. If you do read this and know someone else who is dissatisfied with their current plight, please pass this along. Maybe they can find something useful or pass on some advice to me as well.
