Things are looking up.

So I had to go out to lunch with work because our out of town boss came in from Chicago. As I paid for my food I ended up paying $7.77..I thought to myself wow..that's my lucky number. Could this be my lucky day? Well not even a hour later after lunch my boss asked me to come to his office. For sure I thought I was in trouble. So I come in and he asks me to sit down and close the door. Of course my heart starts to race and I try to recall what I had done. This is not normal for him because he doesn't ever close his door to talk to me. Ha! Anyways...it wasn't what I thought. Actually it was good news. He told me that he has seen great improvements in my work and that I am managing my clients really nicely..also that I was getting a 14% raise. This is the first time in my adult career life that I got a real raise. Especially in my new chosen field. I couldn't believe it.

I can't believe I found a job that I am good at. It was a real self esteem booster. I have always had problems realizing my potential. Ever since I was little I was told that I would have real difficulties succeeding in life. That I had a random learning disorder and that I was way to emotional for the real world. Well comes to find out people were wrong about me. There isn't really anything wrong with me. That I am really just like everybody else. I just have to try a little harder. So my luck has changed. For the better.

Also, I have come to realize that I really enjoy my life. That there is nothing wrong with my waiting a little longer and slowing things down a little. I have a much better outlook now and I feel positive lately. I just hope this positive energy continues.
