Job Search

I apologize for not posting anything as of late! My job search has consumed me! As I go through all these sites, looking here, looking there, applying here and there all the while trying to keep the hope alive to continue my path to greatness! I will be a success for whomever hires me! why? well, a few reasons really. The first, is that I am so hungry to dive into a position and apply my skills and what I have learned over the past years to a team of other successful people and will do whatever it takes to make the company and those around me a success. The second, I live at home with my mom right now. Let me retype that in case it didn't sink in... I LIVE AT HOME WITH MY MOM! Don't get me wrong, I love my mom very much, however I didn't plan on spending my 30's living at home! I have got so many goals, and things left to do on my "list" that wherever I get a job, I will make sure to not just do a good job.... but put everything I have into it so I can achieve those goals. Earlier in my career, I think I just did the job. Don't get me wrong though, I have always taken pride in my work but with no personal goals it becomes too routine. Now that I have set higher standards for myself and attainable goals I am anxious to get out there and not only do a good job, but have something to show for it. I don't need medals, or awards, I have other things I want from my work. Third, what started out as sort of a joke, has now become kind of a reality. I was joking with my sister saying that I "felt sorry for whomever hired me, because I would do just about anything around the office, from cleaning the windows and floors to picking up lunch for everyone! lol You know, the guy in the office that has to have EVERYTHING perfect... I'm finding that I am turning into that guy... which isn't bad at all really, better to be THAT guy than the guy that's into cocaine breaks at work... lol Currently, I am helping a friend write a show that he wants to pitch to a tv station. It's a lot of fun, but i'm sure it will be a lot of work as well.

My dad once told me about a light everyone has.. And that light turns on at different times for different people. For my sister, it turned on in college. For me, probably not until after college to be honest. This light, is a light that turns on when you just "get it" whether it's school, work, relationships, etc. Now, when my dad made that light comment he was referring to school. Well, I wanted to grow that thought into several lights... One for school, one for your attitude, one for your work ethic. etc. the list is almost endless really. Well, my lights are on someone is home, and anxious to put myself, my skills, and my goals to the test. Question is... Who is going to take that chance on me? I'll keep ya updated as the journey continues. Many blessings to those who read this, and have a great week.
