I have no life!!! I have been feeling like this for a while but I guess I wasn't able to verbalize or I just didn't care. Career has ALWAYS been my passion. Since I was 16, I've lived to work. Career is what has always been the most important to me and I've been driven and I've worked my a** off. And I did it, I'm working in television and living in Hollywood just like I've always dreamed. Only I'm not happy. Television is a frustrating business. Even on a really successful show. The pace is insane. An unbelievable amount of money is wasted on the stupidest things. It takes a million people to make one small decision. I'm just about OVER it!
I live in Southern California and I don't take the time to really take advantage of it. I work at least 10 hours a day with a 45 minutes commute each way. That's on a good day. I've worked 18 hour days before and more often 12 hour days. And I just don't know why anymore. Starting from when I was in high school I took a trip to Europe every couple of years. The last trip I took was 7 years ago and it is just killing me. I want to be able to travel and have a dog and have more freedom during my day. I want to become a better person and not get so annoyed with my boyfriend or the people I work with. I don't want to have to drink to get through a job like my boss told me the other day. (Me: 'This is a crazy schedule' Her: 'That's why we drink') **Side note - I have NOT been drinking except for a small drink once a weekend**
I was talking with my friend about this and we just came to the conclusion that our passion is actually life. NOT work like we've always thought. I don't want kids or even to get married any time soon so that's totally not what this is about. I just don't want my job controlling my life anymore!
I think my blog is going to be my journey to finding passion in life, while staying fit and healthy, and getting out of debt. They all go hand in hand right?
I also have decided to make a career change. I thought one day I would want to move back to Chicago, and maybe one day I still will, but for now I want to enjoy Southern California for what it is. AWESOME weather, mountains, the beach, there are endless possibilities here. Anyway, career change! I want to work in health and fitness. I don't know how exactly but it is my new mission to figure that out. I've had these personal training study materials for over a year now and I need to do that! Even if I never train someone, at least I'll have the knowledge.
Thanks for listening. Stay tuned!!!
