My Trip to Cincinnati
I am working hard to make sure I get what I want in the future. There is never a compromise for hard work. I recently started a new job and I am building a business. I represent for Primerica Financial Service ( A Citi Group Company ) and I am presently on the representative level in my job. About 3 weeks into the business, I was told there was a conference to Cincinnati, Ohio and there would like me to go for it. I thought to myself, "Is this another way for them to make me spend money?" but then I realized that it would only work to my own good since I was not forced to attend. I decided to invest my time and money into this trip and trust me, it was worth it. Me and some of my work buddies, left Chicago at around 5 am on Friday and hit 90/94 heading to Ohio via Indiana. It was a long drive, about 5 hours, but I really did not feel it because I was engrossed in a book I was reading called, "The Devil's Arithmetic". We got there and stayed at the Millennium Hotel in downtown Cincinnati. Workshop where up by 12pm till about 8pm and dinner was after that. I learnt enough at the conference and I am fully motivated to grip my future by the head. I came back from the conference on sunday morning a different man. I had gained so much, I had to start implementing what I had learned to my business. Right now, my business is kicking off at a nice rate. Last week, I took some classes so that I can obtain my producer's license. I will be taking the exam in a couple of days and I am ready to kick butt. My advice for anyone reading this, If you do not stand for something, you will fall for anything. Find what gives you joy and pursue your dreams!!!
