Rough Times Ahead

First of May of 2009, went to work and got hit! Got called to the boss office where there was a lady that works in some department within the company, she was nervous, I was able to tell by her speech trembling, she had some paper work with my severance package and was telling me all the procedures to follow about my destitution.

I do know and believe that the company has been on restructuration for last six months or so forced by the economic turmoil of this last couple years, many companies had been forced to reduce their labor expenses and it finally come down to me, I lost an income of over 75K per year and that is a lot, but I do know that everything will be going to get better.

I had been on worst situation before where I had me wife and two daughters and not a penny to feed them! it might sound unreal but it’s the truth, then nature get’s in the way and helps me out by means of me finding another job, I was able to raise my daughters and get them the life of a normal kid, not luxuries but not misery either,  both of them married and with kids now, my wife and myself on better financial state, I’m able to afford at least a year without the worries of not having an income and that is without cutting or diminishing our life style that not being that of a super star but of a couple happily enjoying life it will be great.

I have been on a masterclass for the last fourteen weeks and it seems that nature had been involved on helping my out again, I have the time to accomplish what it has been hard for lack of time, writing my first eBook following the advice and guidance of John Thornhill I will succeed on this one also as I have succeed in different hardships before, just setting my mind to whatever I always wanted had given me the means to achieve them, to achieve goals and reach for the economic rewards of hard work, and when I say hard work is thinking about how to get my boss place for example.

I started thinking about it and it just happened over course of time I was learning the skills without realizing it and then one day, boom! It hit me, I was to take his job because of illness retirement and because I was capable of taking his responsibilities, planning and scheduling, mentoring about 20 employees that reported directly to me and successfully doing what I was getting paid to do.

After many years and because of the aforementioned hard economic times I was laid off, it’s a strange feeling, I had been working for over 30 years non stop and it sure feels rare being at home when my mind was used to be somewhere else at work not here at home, with that I will leave you, pray for my success as I will which you all the best that there is out there in life, I would like to recommend a free report that talks about being your own boss, you can get it here. Till later when I get some more thoughts together.
