I am so in love with my job. Going in to this, I honestly never thought that I'd say that. I LOVE working from home and doing social networking AND I have never kept in contact so well with my friends and family. I feel like you're almost not supposed to love a 'sales' job or tell anyone you do, lest you get classed as a social pariah. But don't worry, I haven't turned into one of those insufferable used car salesman type 'sales person'. To be completely honest, I don't even try to sell anything. I just share my love for this makeup and, boy, do I have a lot of that!
It might surprise you to learn that I have always been pretty socially awkward. I don't like meeting new people or talking to strangers so this whole entirely online thing sounded awesome to me. Not to mention--discounts!!!! But, after only a couple of weeks I find that my confidence levels are through the roof. Not only do I now have something to talk about when I meet new people, I have actually gone up to total strangers and started a conversation with them. Did you hear me?? TOTAL STRANGERS! If you would have asked me if I would ever do that, even a month ago, I would have laughed nervously and ran away. I see a career on the horizon and I have never been so excited and fired up to go. This is coming from a person who has worked in sales in the past and loathed it. I don't think I can even put into words how much I hated my previous jobs but here it goes. I used to walk toward my office with my stomach in knots and a sense of impending doom. And that feeling that my breakfast was about to eject itself at any moment without my consent. Even writing this, that feeling is coming back. I didn't like being yelled at and was on the verge of tears every single day. I would go home and dread having to do it all again the next day. And I'm going to let you in on a little secret, those horrible experiences alone made me afraid to even try to get a job again, even though I desperately needed one.
It makes me wonder who else out there is having the same exact reaction to their job or past jobs? I bet it's a lot of you! What I want you to come away with today from this short little post is that you can change your life. Whether it's with Younique, going back to school, changing careers, moving to a new town or even a new country, just take the plunge and go for it! What's the worst that can happen? It doesn't work out and you get to find something else to fulfil you. No matter which way you look at it, you'll be rid of something that's making you unhappy and bringing in new potential and possibilities.
That's all for today and I look forward to seeing you back here tomorrow! If you missed it before, here's the link to my site where you can shop, host a party, or join my team. Thanks for following!
