One day this will become a process thread and eventually, a mild success story.
For now, I seek advice:
I've decided to work as many hours (80+) as I can at my new slowlane commission only job just to apply all I learn while studying sales. If you have any input here it would be tremendously appreciated.
With a little luck - i.e. probability - 12 hour days 6 days a week will start to pay off on my paycheck as well. Although I'm not counting on it paying very well at 15% commission on profits. And I'll make just barely enough to survive on the draw alone.
No, for now, my goal is to learn, sell, learn, sell, learn, sell and sell some more.
I'm nearly starving. I need to be hungry.
Hopefully this job presents an opportunity to lift myself from the brink of homelessness and starvation, a drowing crevasse I am only barely climbing out of.
Eventually when #1 success finds me in this slowlane job, I will have already siphoned what funds I can out of my meager paycheck into a small savings.
For now... I'm flat broke, without a phone, without a working car, with barely any food, with ONLY THIS JOB.... until 3 days before christmas.
This savings will be my seed. I must nurture it, let it grow into a powerful tree. If I don't water it, it can never grow.
About that... Bruce Lee said it best:
"You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend."
Until soon,
