Are You Crazy To Drop This Job For One 1/2 The Pay!

They said I was crazy, an idiot for doing and loose all that money

I was gonna get there no matter what. I was going to be an industrial mechanic. But, I had no skills.

Then, an opportunity to get some knowledge landed on my lap.

I was working for the city when my neighbour offered me a job as a welder. “It pays $5.50/hr.”

“I’ll take it!”

I had very little skills but someone was willing to take me under his wing.

All excited, I left the job with the city.

For less than 1/2 the pay, I was going to learn how to weld. It was my ticket to prosperity.

“Have you lost your mind?”

“Are you Stupid or something?”

“What’s wrong with you?”

I ignored them and went about my business.

I had been doing that job for 2 months when I got an offer to go work in the trade I wanted.

Those naysayers were wrong, again!

My goal became real just because I made a decision to get the experience at a small cost.

When the opportunity to go after what I really wanted presented itself, I was ready.

Let others talk.

They don’t understand your goals if they’re not living in your soul.

Understand what you want.

Don’t pass up an opportunity if you can later prosper from it.
