40 is Not the New 20

Turning 40 has made my thought process completely different, I feel as though it's race to retirement. I want all our debt gone, I want to save a lot more money, move in to our headquarter home in Chandler, our retirement home. My main immediate goals are to Grow our business Tiburon Xchange, crush my job pay plan!, drive cars that are paid off (that will be a first, the whole car thing). There have been some major changes in my house hold; my oldest daughter decided to come live with us as she gets established in her field of choice. All I ask is respect and to be an addition to our family. They say our house is boring, I say don't bring yo ass over here then, we don't have time for your petty crap anyway, you fricken time killer! We are trying to use life up, we make our best effort to not waste time on things that won't matter tomorrow. We focus on "Minding our Business", it's about achievement over here. This life we are living is by design, not default. I truly love my life. The past 90 days have been challenging , started a new gig selling Telecom, which I have no experience, but since I know sales, the vehicle doesn't really matter. Everything has to be sold in this world, either your buying or selling. Oh, had my first experience with a non selling sales manager, he never sold, but was stuck on playing manager, we call it "manager-idious" with a bunch rules that at the end of the day didn't put numbers on the board. To his defense he was setup to fail, he didn't have a clue of how to lead, and was dragging my ass down the same path. Recently things have gotten better, they got someone in there that has done it before on a high level, and finally I can breathe. But now my ass is behind the 8 ball, with 30 days to make it happen, or I go away. But I figure, who cares Kieran, you can make it happen. With this new air I'm able to breathe, my success and confidence is starting to make a move in a positive direction, amazing what can happen when you can trust what the manager says cuz he done it and had success. This burning desire is for my family and I to stay harmonious, allow God to work through us, no one said it would be easy, just that it would be worth it....
