I am...high :) having a big glass of wine...Harry Potter on in the background...good book to read...pizza in the kitchen to munch on all night. These simple evenings are the nights I live for most- as an introvert, this is how I recharge. I know I’ll miss these nights when I’m married, I’m only 27- I don’t know how people are already married with kids. I love the Bachelorette life for now and dating in my early 30′s, when I’m at an amazing spot in my career and so is he, is something I’m really looking forward too. Night caps, summer trips to the Hamptons and mimosas on the back nine...
Clearly it’s a good night to put on some music and brainstorm your new life. I know what and where I want mine to look like.
Bachelorette pad- I promise you’ll see more of it later. I’m a little shy and you’re still getting to know me...:) Home Town is another one of my favorite shows. Whenever I’m having a bad day, I throw it on and fantasize about buying a home in quiet Mississippi and just opening a boutique or yoga studio...sitting on my porch all year long with a glass of sweet tea. A nice fantasy but not realistic for me. For being as introverted as I am, I have this attraction to the city. To sky rises and skylines. To being in walking distance from the stadiums, coffee shops, wine bars. There’s a certain energy to the city; even an introvert sitting in her apartment looking out floor to ceiling windows at the all the bright lights, flashy cars, swanky people, can be hypnotized by it. Can get lost in it. I always find myself though- remember those quiet moments I told you about to recharge?
If money were not a consideration- what would you do?

Here is my craft. No one will ever understand what this journey means to me. I’ll try to put it into words, but sometimes even I’m overwhelmed by this plan God laid on my heart back in August 2018. They say it takes 10,000 hours of practice to perfect your craft. They meaning the athletes, the musicians, the artists, the million dollar salesmen, they meaning the best of the best. So this is what I do. I wake up every day and I train. Sometimes I do two-a-days. I show up to practice even on the days I don't feel like it. My work-outs are reps of questions- and yes after 50+ 1-page analytical finance questions, I get fatigued. I liken this journey to that of an athlete's (or any of the other aforementioned groups.) The grit is immeasurable.
I’m going to leave you guys with one more thing. :)
