Well, I am no longer in real estate. Thought about for a long time and realized I was hemmoraging money to stay in the business with nothing come in. And I have been hemmoraging emotionally - I have not been protective enough of my fragile self. When I realized that, I knew I could not take any more rejections. There's just been too much of it in the last 4 years. In a way I feel freer - no more guilt b/c I wasn't selling anything or b/c the managers at the office told me I wasn't coming in to the office enough. It was too much for me and I only now took stock.
I hope this step towards breaking a chain holding me down is a step toward things opening up for me. I am really scared but have no option but to go forward.
In the past I have always made choices out of desperation - usually about jobs. They always turned out badly - always. I am trying so hard not to do that again.
Thanks to everyone who posted about my job question. It's a teaching position teaching English to foreigners connected to the Air Force. It's perfect for me.
