C.A.R.E.

C.A.R.E=California Real Estate. 

Studying like an animal for the state exam. Shocked still that I was able to pass. It was super difficult for me. I am a nerd. I memorized. Did the same process I did in college to get A’s. 

But...

This time was different. The test questions were mind f*cks!!! Like, you needed to know the opposite of the the principle being asked and then the double opposite of the correct one plus the alternative answers prime number. It was a math question word jumble. 

Dude. 

I prayed like an animal DURING the test. 

The Goddess took over. Truly. I kept saying, “Help me. I love helping people with real estate. It’s one of my services in this world. To spread joy. God, help me pass this test so I can do your will.” 

Crazy pants. Bc the next few questions were super super easy to help me build confidence again. 

Then later I cried during the middle of the test. NEVER did that before. Yikes. 

I know real estate and studying CARE I know it too. It was the tripping questions that messed me up. 

I was 50/50 if I passed or failed. Usually, after a test like this I want to know my grade cause chances are it’s 95 to a 98. 

My experience was very different this time round. It was like God just let me pass to get this part out of the way and have options to where I can practice real estate in this country. 

After the test, I heard cheering and yelps in the girls bathroom. I went in and the girl who was sitting next to me during the test grabbed my shoulders and jumped up and down yelling “I passed!” I told her I didn’t check my paper yet. Bc the lady at the desk was stern about not checking until I got to my car. So...

I went into the bathroom stall. Took a breathe. Read, “Congratulations, you passed California Real Estate License Exam.” 

I peed. 

Jumped around with the girls in the bathroom. Then washed my hands. (Kinda gross. Shoulda did that first!) 

Anyhoot. I. Was. In. Shock. 

Truly, shocked. 

All that hard work of non-stop studying. Weeknights of classes. The weekend crash course. All worth it!!!

I said I was going to do something, & I DID. 

Today, What was the last promise you kept to yourself?

They say, the fastest way to build self esteem is to keep promises to ourselves. 

I say this now. 

Bc...

“They” have been saying this to me for years. Now, I’ve absorbed this idea. 

Whenever I’m feeling sh*tty about myself I’ll ask, “What promise are you not keeping to yourself?” 

Usually, comes up fast. 

-Running challenge not done.

-Journaling in the am as soon as I wake up. Not at the end of the day! 

-Vegan 100 %

-writing GSTQ

...
