My Dream Job Journal, February 20, 2008

 

Thoughts on becoming a winner
 
First of all, when I wrote my essay back in October, it was late at night and I really didn’t think that mine would be chosen since I’ve had some unfortunate events in my life over the last few years.
 
I was delighted to learn during Christmas week (via email, while visiting family) that I was in fact, one of the 6 finalists. I still did not believe that I would be chosen, but I sent in all the paperwork that was requested.
 
Then, the first week of January, my entire 2008 started off with a big bang! I was told that I had been chosen as one of the 6 winners across the country! WOW! We then had our first conference call with all the winners and the staff at AARP and we all had so much in common. Three of us are looking to start new careers and three of us are looking to start new businesses.
 
I just wanted to say that this has given me such a wonderful feeling of excitement and pride to be chosen. It also gives me a great sense that the training I’m involved with is definitely on the right path.
Now I feel more confident that I’ll find a wonderful job with this enhancement to my skills, and as was noted on the conference call….the purpose is to find not just any job, but the right job.
 
Thank you again to AARP and Retirement Jobs.com.
