I was unsure - and had no idea. ⬇️

From 16 to 23 years old, I worked odd end jobs.

Delivering pizzas. Setting up inflatable bouncy houses. Landscaping. 
Whatever to “make a buck” as my papa would say.

I wasn’t the greatest in school.
I didn’t have anything figured out other than sports.
I wasn’t sure where I was headed or even going. 
I didn’t know what the future held. 

I’d come home exhausted.
Some nights I came home and felt numb.
Some nights I barely had the energy to talk.

I told myself,
“This is what a man does. Sucks it up and does what he has to do.” 
And I did.

But I was surviving... not living.

$250-$400 a week.
Paycheck to paycheck.
Always calculating bills in my head.

That was hard.

Now let me be clear -

Virtual sales is hard too.

There are long days.
There’s rejection.
There’s pressure.
There are moments you question yourself.

But here’s what changed.

I work from home.
I’m present.
Bills are paid.
I make my own schedule.
I don’t need permission to take a day off.
I don’t need permission to take a vacation somewhere.

And yes... I’ve had months where I’ve made over $35,000 from my home office.

But the money isn’t the biggest blessing.

It’s the peace.
The control.
The confidence.
The faith.

Both paths are hard.

One drained me.

One builds me.

You don’t get to avoid hard in this life.

You just get to choose which hard gives your life meaning.
