Living Your Dreams

I am resigning from my job tomorrow.  I know that seems diametrically opposed to my mantra of saving money to buy and restore properties, but for me it is an exercise in principle.  I hate my job.  It depresses me.  The company I work for is run by an egomaniacal tyrant and I've had enough.  This will be one of the first times in my life that I will stand up for myself.  And I've never felt better. 
I am, however, not a foolish girl.  I am giving my company notice that I will be leaving in three months.  This is a device that will put the pressure on me to find something better. There's something about removing your sense of security that fans the flame of resourcefulness.  I think these upcoming days will prove my strength {to myself} and will come in handy down the road.  I can always look back and say, "I didn't let them walk all over me."  
This transformative time has also allowed me to explore my dreams to their fullest extent.  I now have a firm direction in my life and I am unstoppable.  I also feel one step closer to seeing my dreams come alive.  
The next few days I will be finalizing my 3 month, 6 month and one year plans, which I intend to share with you.  I've always felt like going public with your goals is always the best way of seeing them materialize.  If you keep them quiet, nobody holds you accountable.  All my major accomplishments in life have happened as a result of being vocal.  So let your dreams be heard!
