My Story in a Nutshell

I don't have a PhD. But I do have a BIG heart :)

If you asked me a few years ago if I will be doing this I'd say you are crazy! All I know is that life always evolves. My life totally changed in 2008. I had a successful and rewarding career in Sales in the Wholesale side of the mortgage industry for 10 years. In March of 2008, I got laid off along with the entire Sales force at JP Morgan Chase. Though I have a great resume and references to back me up I can't seem to land a job. Even to work for Burger joints - no luck! They say I am over qualified. Geez, how hard is it to cook and flip a burger? LOL!

I did start my own company for commercial and film financing but that didn't turn out well either. Tried for 3 years....

See that picture? It's not like I have to go to a culinary school to cook and flip burgers!

Seriously though, I have not given up! I am as positive as I was when things were fine and dandy compared to today. My faith in God has not diminished but has grown tremendously during this whole ordeal. We all know that things happen for a reason.

It just so happens that someone needed to take care of our mother. Thankfully, the rest of my family are employed. So I took that responsibility to take care of mom. She is 82. She doesn't drive. I don't either. I am legally blind.

But you got to do what you got to do! She has diabetes and asthma. She had a stroke. I take her to her doctors, grocery shopping, help her with her medications and other things. Thank God she is progressing beautifully!

In the meantime, while sending resumes this is what I do. I started blogging on January 19 of this year.

My focus is to share my personal insights about success, happiness, spiritual awareness, motivation, tips on a variety of subjects and some humor and funny stuff. I also share other articles I find informative. I LOVE IT!!!!

When I do get my career back on track. I will still be blogging!

This is a way for me to be a positive influence to society and make a difference in my own way. So share with me your thoughts. Thanks for following.

If you haven't... please join me on this journey and be a "follower."

By the way, all I know is - "the best is yet to come."

Not just for me... but for you as well...
