my daily book life
I decided to sell books door to door this summer. Every morning I wake up at six and leave the house by 6:15. Go eat breakfast and start knocking on doors at 7:45. Work until around 10:00 at night. During the day I talk to over thirty moms about helping with their children's education by use of our products. Some buy, most do not. Six days a week this is my life. I am here now in my 10th week in Clinton Township, Michigan, obviously not doing as I am supposed to at the moment. The past nine have been all but ordinary. I was sitting at number one in the company for a solid six of them. It felt amazing! Every meeting on Sunday was exciting...they kept getting better and better. Hard work really provides happiness. Plateau. It is getting tougher. Fourteen hour days are not that bad. Working while it pours is not terrible either. Neither is the fact that I could be doing something way more fun. It is my mind... and how it travels singlehandedly to adversity day in and day out. There are only four weeks left and I am mentally already summing up the summer. I ask what it takes to keep a momentum...the kind that pushes when you pull away...especially when a setback feels like a positive thing. So essentially what I am searching for is satisfaction in NOT being satisfied. One, with the fact I have met some of my goals and Two, finishing up the summer strong and taking away everything I possibly can from this insane situation I placed myself into. I am finding it quite challenging but will not fail.
Funny how this post is so entirely different from last summer's.
