When I was preparing to depart the military, I knew that I didn’t want to go to work for anyone ever again because I had retired from a civilian position, and was about to retire from many years of service in the military.
With the training, and mindset of a professional my mind was set -I was going to own my own business and assist others on their journey to debt freedom. Little did I know that this journey would be a little more difficult since not only did my life take a turn when I became the care provider for my youngest sister; and a grandparent (parent) to a little bundle of joy at the age of 56.
Have you ever asked in the secret depth’s of your heart; what in the world was I thinking!!!
Well, three and a half years later, my bundle of joy is now in daycare, I am retired for the second time in my life, and my sister is no longer with me. I would cry but that would defeat the purpose of the journey. (Note: sometimes you have to keep a strong front for yourself preservation)
Any who, along comes an opportunity to grow on the journey to entrepreneurship that seem to just fall in my lap. I was excited until there was more computer work that I needed to understand, and process. Whew, the military, and care-providing took a lot more out of me than I realized; but I press on.
Attending conferences, and requesting tutoring was the boost that I needed, long story short, the journey to debt freedom is one that needs patience, a strong constitution, and much prayer. The one thing I did, and am still learning is that I am not alone, and with the help of like minded people I will succeed, and you can too.
Join me, it’s a butt kicker but a good one.
