Professional business photo taken at Sears Studio...this is the picture on my prestige brochure from my new job
During the past couple months after I’ve taken on my new job, I’ve experience enormously of human nature and reality. I am grateful for a bunch of friends who support me mentally throughout this tough time and a few of friends who hurt me deeply but not knowing, they h
ave taught me good lessons of what life is.
The first impact to me is transiting from being a stay-at-home mom (SAHM) to a working mom (WM). Now I kind of feel what the ‘battle of war between the two’ is like. In some way, I feel distance and rejection from the SAHM but welcoming and reception from the WM. No comments there but I clearly understand it’s human nature to associate yourself with the group you can identify with. I just know that whatever I choose to do is best to my interest and that I live the best of my life whether I am a SAHM or a WM. Good or bad is not for anyone to judge but it’s myself who choose which road to go on to. With that in mind, I tell myself not to judge others for what they choose to do.

Because of the nature of my job, I have the flexibility to spend time with Abi and Zeb even during the week. I love being able to stay home with them if they are sick or if school gets cancel due to the weather. I love being able to pick Abi up from school in the middle of the day and take her to her ballet class and bring her back afterward.
I enjoy the time away from my children to actually have adult conversations with people at work. I enjoy being able to focus and think and discuss matter and joke about things without interruptions. I enjoy having lunch with Raymond alone once in a while. I really really cherish all these moments I get to have now. I know it’s not going to last long but I do hope it stays long.
The second impact to me is getting used to the new career.
xyz It’s sales based and it’s completely different from what I’m used to do before. There are a lot that I need to learn such as negotiation skill, people skill, sales language, handling rejections, on top of products knowledge. I’m not a nature born salesperson but I admit that after attending weekly trainings at the office and 3-day-training at the home office at Nashville, TN; I am more confident in speaking with people and presenting what I have to say. To me, it’s a great benefit I received in my life.
People I meet are very different from what I’m used to too. I developed good companionship with other agents in the office and we all support each other and encourage each other when we are down. I’ve also met some friends through business such as computer store owner, restaurant manager, hair salon owner, cleaner, etc. This is what I absolutely love: establishing connections and making friends.
My personality does not want me to write negative things about the change but I have gone through a difficult period of time when I started the new job and facing these 2 major impacts. I was depressed, frustrated, and stressed out. I will always remember the dark moment as to always appreciate what I have. I am going to stand tall and stay strong for what I’ve always believed and always think positively. After all, it’s a life learning experience that I’m blessed to have a chance to encounter and to learn.
