Hello! I am a new middle-aged FA changing careers. I decided twenty years was enough to do what I did and trying something new. Excited about it, but also wanted to learn more on a forum.

I am with EJ. So far, I am impressed with the company.

Not much to say really about me.

I’m a thick skinned potato.

Except today I drove around for 3 hours instead of DKing. Saw Wolf’s thread and I want to be as mentally tough as Wolf.

That’s about it.

I have a doctorate in something else with a long career and decided time for something new.
I like being out of my comfort zone and I sure am.

Anyway... that’s all I have.

Thanks for the welcome.

I don’t offend easy.

I don’t care. Glad I was missed or maybe I missed the joke.

Either way.

Nothing related to finance or economics, but likely too identifying to say because it’s so odd to leave it.

Sorry can’t be more transparent. I really don’t want to worry about someone reading what I say and using it against me later. Nothing worse than google and all that.

I am also paranoid. 😂

Building mental toughness is a process. Every time you get out of the car and DK it's a step forward. Every time you skip out and circle a block or a town or whatever it's a step back.

Find a non-judgemental partner that you can coordinate days and times with. The longer you avoid asking for help, the deeper the hole will be.

Bingo. I door knocked in the hood my first couple days and eventually worked up to the biggest houses I could find.

Stick around here and sling some shit and you can be granted mentally tough status. Not kidding.
