Entry about my situation with work, my dad, and K.
Even though I haven't signed anyone yet.. I saw K this morning. He told me that we are "Fine", and that he's "Satisfied with my progress". I breathed a huge sigh of relief. It seems to me that K and everyone else knows how difficult it can actually be to sign insurance clients, and what they look for is the effort.. which is 110% there. I went down to the office today, for a meeting I thought was supposed to happen, that wasn't even scheduled. I have an important convention next week, and a meeting.
Which brings me to my dad. The lease on my apartment has thankfully been renewed. I know that if my dad hadn't seen the progress I've made since Aflac contacted me, I likely wouldn't have an apartment anymore., He blatantly told me that if he didn't see how hard I was working, he wouldn't have renewed the lease. I cant be angry. He's right. He's funding his 44 year old son in a nice apartment. I hope to be self sufficient sometime this year. Not because I'm planning to do anything like an estrangement, but just because it would be better this way.
So far.. many of the people I've spoken to about benefits from us, have been dry wells. My dad potentially knows several people who he thinks can help. I just want to sign, even one at first.,. to satisfy K, and to show my dad that I'm making more progress,. I don't think losing my job is a concern,.. for now,.., but.. I'm reminded of the "Re-Evaluation" that K, and Benny, the sales school teacher, told us takes place after 90 days, which is right around Mother's Day. I want/need to sign at least one person by then. It doesn't mean I'd be "Fired" if I don't, but. let';s just say I don't want to get to that point, and not have signed someone. I don't want K, Benny, Jay, Tim.. to do the "Re-Evaluation" with my having signed no one. I still have.. 70 days. Hopefully., one or two things I'm working on can be signed within 30 days, which would make the 90 day deadline moot.
My friends, please pray for me. I'm working hard, and my nerves are shot. I busted my tail to get this license, in Sales School, and now for the trainings, and to try and find clients. Some things haven't worked out. I'm just hopeful that something materializes, to solidify my position at the company.
