Your Path to Success May Take a Little Detour (here and there....)!

I am genuinely thankful to be alive. I think sometimes we all get a little wrapped up with the minor issues in life. A lot of times, we cannot even change what is happening if we wanted to. So, I believe in positive thinking and that if you truly are approaching things with an open mind and not pre-judging anyone or anything, events will occur in a more positive light as well as for the better. Really. I believe things DO happen for a reason. Here's a personal example: Ok, I got a really tough job of cold calling real estate agents and trying to get them to convert to a program which we sales people new nothing about the "secret" which helped agents who joined earn 2 to 3 times their income -- GUARANTEED. So, they wanted you to reach a certain number every week of proposed signings. Needless to say, I felt I was doing well since I had the highest percentages of the entire group BUT still not good enough. I worked there 6 weeks before I was "let go." I was bummed, but (hang on!) the story gets better.... So, I took 1 day and kind of re-energized myself. Then I went on the internet and applied for a position to work from home and do pretty much "virtual administrative duties" for a company in Texas (I'm in California). I got a response from my resume submission and lo and behold they really liked my resume because I had a connection with realtors on a different level than just buying or selling homes. So, I truly believe it was meant to be and the 6 weeks was for a reason at the realty cold-calling job! I got the new job and start tomorrow!!! I am excited and can't wait... So, don't stop having goals, but also remember, you may be just treading water where you are for a reason and you will see why when you get the big fish that allows you to swim free and at your own pace!!! :)
