its been a few days

So, its been a few days. And man, a few days it has been. Well... I have put in my 2 weeks notice at my current job and moving on. I just learned that what I was doing, media planning, was not for me. I am not a numbers person, I am no someone who can be behind a computer all day, buried in an excel document. There is noting wrong with some people loving it, because there are plenty of people who love it, just not me. So, on to the next one.

Its a funny story. I had been on the hunt for a new job for a few weeks (so lets track this back to the beginning of June). I had gone on a few interviews, but nothing to get to excited about. The biggest problem I had in all the media planner interviews and job opportunities, was that, in all honestly, I wasn't excited. The jobs sounded exactly like what I had been doing, and I already knew I wasnt happy, so, I know this was bad, but I didn't put in 100%. Totally not like me. But then a friend suggested me to a small recruiting agency to get help with finding a job. I took his advice and gave them a call.

During the meeting with the recruiters, I started asking them questions about what they do... and basically turned the meeting around into a question session about recruiting. And what happened next, blew me out of the water. They asked me if I was interested in recruiting, because they were hiring. Without any hesitation, I said yes. This was an out of body expierance I had never had before. I said yes before I could even think about it, there was a push for me to just say yes. I listened to my gut, came back for an interview, and fast forward to now, I am starting a week from Monday.

Woah. that's all I have to say. What a change, and what an adventure. This would happen to me. I have helped a few of my friends get jobs, and have had a lot of friends come to me or advice on finding jobs- and truly, I loved helping them, so why not make money at something I already know I enjoy?

So whats the lesson I have learned? My gut feeling, sometimes, not always, but sometimes will lead me to things I had never imagined.

peace, love, and excited for this adventure,
