update and work

Life is nothing if not lived, right?


I'm safe in Logan, once again. This time I don't plan on leaving. I visited Arizona for one of my best friend's wedding and one of my sister's wedding. I was suppose to be maid of honor in my sister's wedding, but she flipped and kicked me out two day before the wedding. In turn, I get to spend some quality time with my family. 

On to new beginnings! 

Update with me (for those that do not follow me on facebook):
I am still LDS (come on people, it's the true church!) 
I have been dating someone (Isaac) for almost two months now

I plan to live in Logan until further notice

I love working out here because I love the people and the weather

Currently my biggest struggle in life is just getting out the door and going to work. I love my friends and family, my health is good and everything is going great, but for some reason, I just have a hard time starting work and continuing to work. Discipline is a struggle. 
Solution? Well, there have been many things I have done to try and "solve" my issue, bottom line is I need to hold myself accountable, and my family is joining in to help me as well... meaning they support what I do 100%. It's great knowing that people believe in me and what I can do. It's like an ego boost. There are days when my confidence is low, these are the days when sleep is way more appealing, but knowing my family is counting on me to do what I say I am going to do, well, that means a lot more to me than my own self pity. 
I know I am good at what I do so long as I go to work, so what holds me back? Nothing. Now is my time to shine. I'm blogging about this for a reason as well. Someone once said, "when you write something down it give it more meaning." My work should be, and is, meaningful to me. When I am working consistantly I LOVE my job. I love the day-to-day interaction I have with people, the stories that are created, the lives that are changed because of what I do. I sell cancer insurance and other supplemental insurance through cold calling (knocking on doors) and referrals. Sure, I have bad days, but what job doesn't have bad days? I actually have a really cool job. However, because not everyone can see themselves doing what I do I often get, "I could never do that or wold never do that, how do you do it?" Simple, I love people, and people love me for what I do. 

Life is really simple if you just love a little bit more than the day before.
If you look at everyone like you love them, how different would the world look?

  1. The true character of a person is measured not when everything is going well but rather everything is not. It is the day to day struggle that builds enough character and strength to make it through the next challenge. Hope things are going well for you, even if they are challenging.
