Let me get this straight...

These next few months are going to bring a lot of change. The weather is going to change, my hair is going to grow longer, and relationship are going to grow. With that, decisions are going to need to be made. My job is going to change, my income is going to change, and what I am doing in life is going to flip.

Understand that this time I am doing something not to please the people around me but make a decision that makes me happy.

After working at a job for only 8 months, I will put in my two week notice tomorrow. Yes, I feel like a quitter and that I am letting people down and trust me, this hasn't been an easy decision. I am losing a 401k plan, an easy schedule, and a job where I get paid to sit. Seems like I am making the wrong decision right?

I am not and I have to say with confidence that I am making the right decision. I am letting go of a very easy job for something that I would have never expected, a barista.

So, why?

I am not a person that can sit and be bored. I go crazy and I sit and over think everything I do, everything I have done, and what I am doing tomorrow. Money has become number one in my life and that makes me sick.

Trust. I dare you to donate a lump sum of money to someone. For the first time in my life I asked someone, "What do you need?" and I met their request. Within two weeks, God supplied it. That is why I am changing jobs. I need to trust God and I am not a quitter.

I am taking a pay cut, losing a 401k, and giving up a job where I get paid to sit. I am not even going into a field that includes my degree and that is ok.

It is time for something new. I am not leaving out of hatred, anger, or frustration. It is time to do something where I am learning, building relationships, and constantly moving.

I ask for prayer during this transition, it will be a whole new ball game for me.
