Do you hate your job?

Do you hate your job?

I don't, but I sure wouldn't mind leaving it. Don't get me wrong, I love working with kids, especially middle-schoolers. However, the politics of education and the low pay have changed my mind about my profession.

So what?

So, I'm one of the few people out there that would like to leave their job and is actually doing something about it. So many people have a fear about starting a business. It's human nature to get into a comfort zone and stay there. Some would rather play the lottery and just hope to get rich. I can tell you that Bill Gates, Michael Dell, Donald Trump, and many others did not just hope to get rich, they went out and did something about it.

Am I an outgoing person and this comes easy for me? Most certainly not! I am rather shy and reserved. I too like that status quo because it is comfortable, but I also want more in life. I'm not about to just sit back and watch others get rich, others that are far less qualified intellectually than me. I look around and see some people that are rolling in the dough and say to myself "are you kidding me? They are worth how many millions?" Some of these people couldn't even tell you the differnce between a stock and a CD.

For those of you who want change in your life, set a goal and don't be affraid to go get it!
