Donald Sterling Reminds Me of an Ex Boss...I don't Miss those Sunday Night Blues.



I remember a few years back, every Sunday around the evening time after dinner I would start to get depressed. At first I didn't know why, and it took some real evaluations to actually pin point why I would feel blue every Sunday night. I realized that it was the fact that I knew I had to go to a job that I hated on Monday morning. I had to wake up early, get dressed and fight traffic to get to a job and deal with a boss I really couldn't stand. He looked like Donald Sterling, and probably had the same mentality; condescending because he was the big wig and I was merely the Administrative Assistant. 

I would cheer for my lunch hour and dreaded going back after my hour was up. I felt like I had no choice because I had bills to pay. And even if he was a jerk, it was his name on my check, and I needed those checks. 

At least I thought I needed those checks. The day I left Corporate America was one of the happiest days of my life. Even though I was out of a J.O.B (Just Over Broke) and collecting unemployment I knew I had a plan to become my own boss and I would stop at nothing to achieve it. Fast forward a few years and here I am very proud to actually be my own boss, making money on my terms! This blessing I grabbed with D$ Domination has afforded me so many opportunities that I didn't think were possible before. I don't get depressed on Sunday nights anymore and I embrace Monday mornings with open arms. When you learn how to get out of the bondage way of thinking, you embark on new journeys of actually living your life instead of just existing.

  1. I know that feeling! Every Sunday night does not have to be a reminder of how much you hate your J.O.B. Turn your Sunday into a fun day! Team up Alicia and become your own boss.
