People always ask me, "You graduated from college, why aren't you using your degree and working in retail"? My response would always be, "There's no market for mass media arts in this town". I would leave it at that and feel slightly bad about myself that I wasted five years in college and have nothing to show for it but a piece of paper that says "YOU GRADUATED". It wasn't until roughly a week ago while I was at a Beachbody Coaches Summit (new product updates and training seminars) that I realized, "Hey I am using my degree". I got my bachelors in Mass Media Arts Journalism and Communication Studies. My job as a Team Beachbody Coach, requires that I use my communication skills and Internet savvy. Wow, can't believe I never thought of this before. I've been utilizing everything I learned in college towards starting my own business. My business has been flying now, I love being my own boss. I am meeting new people, making new connections and getting customers left and right. My business hasn't really gone anywhere until recently because I didn't know where to start...when AHA, I had the tools all along. This has been a great experiencing sharing my AHA moments with all of you. I hope that some of you will be able to take a little away from this and realize that what you think you might be missing has been there the whole time :)
Peace. Love. Fitness.
