Where is my career going?

I am not sure as of today quite where my career is going.  I have been falling back a little and I have noticed that it’s not really a good thing.  I use to remember the good old days when I was cutting edge, in demand, quite aggressive and putting boot to ass, but it seems like I am being too mellow in my pursuit to my future.  In no means am I saying I am getting soft, but just got to push much harder than I have ever did with precise aiming on targets I have always wanted.  The field I am in is quite an challenging field to be in which are entertainment, technology, publishing, multimedia, and management.  The industry is constantly advancing and changing modules, and it’s quite an effort to stay up to date and current while still being a front runner amongst your peers.

Either way I am just saying, I have superstar skills, and quite a working ethics that shines, but the right people are not seeing me.  I need to be more in their face, more visual, but productive and maybe, just maybe the right people will say, “Hello Mr. Wilson, we have been noticing your progress, and hard work and would like for you to join our team.”  I believe that day shall come.  I am still on my 5 year goal, only about 10 months in and I am seeing some changes.  I am just going to keep pushing and creating my power behind my name and see where my career shall go.

Have you been looking at your career performance as of late?  Are you seeing yourself asking for more?

Thanks for reading

Welcome to another edition of #MM # Money Monday, your weekly guide to better money management and more.

The Money Tweet “#MT”: “#mm #MoneyMonday ” Be on the safe side and get insurance, It will save money in the long run and just the best way to go #money #work #play”

Today’s post is about, being safe and get insurance.  It’s always the best route to go being insured, whether its is for home, work or play.  Although paying for insurance may cost money and we sometimes may whine about how costly it may be at times, but when it really matters it sure comes in handy.

Home: At home being insured is important whether it is health insurance or property insurance its smart to get it.  You don’t want to have an incident happen such as a slip or fall and end up in the hospital with quite a tab to pay for a simple mistake.  Even just a mere check up can cost an arm or a leg to some.  Another incident or accident such as a natural disaster or malfunction of wiring can cost you your home or equipment.  Be safe, smart and invest in some insurance.  Research for some options today.

Work: At work we have also options for insurance.  Best you get familiar with your work place offerings, whether part-time or full-time, if none is available, be sure you have your own as backup or work on getting into a job that can provide some proper insurance.  Insure you car, your equipment and etc if you use these are business or money-making tools, for if they break, you don’t want to have to come out-of-pocket at some crazy amount to replace or fix something that could of being cover under warranty.  My rule is usually if it cost over $100, get it insured or add warranty.

Play: For all my tech fans and gadget fans, I offer the same advise, that Ipod, IPhone, Blackberry, Xbox 360, ps3, d-slr camcorder or camera, do yourself the justice and throw on some insurance at least 1-3 years.  You never know what might happen, that $30-$70 bucks can definitely save you from another $350 or more.

When I say get insurance, remember everyone needs are quite different, so find ones that suit you best and not a burden to your pocket.  For high-priced equipment, motor vehicles and health insurance the price might be quite high, but think about the peace of mind it might save you knowing you are backed up.  Do your research. And for all who don’t have insurance or simply can’t afford it, please be safe, very cautious and be smart.

Thanks for tuning in to Money Monday
