It's a Celebration!

I received a job offer tonight. I'm really excited about it. In fact, I believe it is the perfect job for me. I'll be working with the population in which I'm most interested. The people and organization that I'll be working with are great. I'm so ready to begin my professional career! I can't even imagine what it's like to go to work and not have to worry about a class or a paper. I'm already looking for volunteer opportunities and social activities to take up all of my "free" time. I'm sure I'll head back to school again at some point but I'm going to enjoy "only" working.

This job came right on time. Well, it could have come a lot sooner but I was focused on DC. I think it may have been a distraction while this job came along. I love my DC girls but I definitely have a lot of reasons to be here. The job came when I was almost at the end of my financial rope. I have two weeks until my exam and this will help me to focus my studying. I'm enjoyed my time off, as stressful as it was, but I'm glad that it's over. I start Wednesday.

What is the recipe for successful achievement? To my mind there are just four essential ingredients: Choose a career you love, give it the best there is in you, seize your opportunities, and be a member of the team. ~ Benjamin F. Fairless
