eBay Adventure - eBay Layaway

I received an email from a buyer talking about being on vacation and wanting me to hold her item. Well, it is in an open case for an unpaid item strike. Since she was a repeat buyer, I was in the process of contacting eBay to see what I could do. I had something like this happen to me before. I had a lady who bought an item, it became an unpaid item strike. After the case closed, she emailed me saying that she was on vacation in western Africa and had janky wifi (She never bought the item). It was amazing how some people thought that eBay was layway but the rules clearly stated that you had to pay for your item in 48 hours. Stories like these were one of the reasons why I started eBay Adventures because future resellers needed to know the real!

XD30 - Day 26 – Never Stop Hustling

                I awake all giddy that I have passed my exam. You know when you wake up and it’s really, really, real?! This is the absolute best feeling in the world. It feels great to know that you’ve knocked something off of your New Year’s resolutions list. However, no man is an island and I must promote in order to get the word out. I’ve republished my website’s blog article on LinkedIn, tell everyone about today YouTube Live episode where I discuss my take on ITIL as a certified project manager. My hard work has paid off because as soon as I publish my ITIL article on LinkedIn some recruiter is in my inbox. See, these are the results that I am looking for.

                I have to push because there have been a lot of slowness and irregularities happen to me. One of them is explained today when I learn that a recruiter will be on maternity leave. I wish her well then proceed to reintroduce myself to the other recruiters taking her place. Next, I discover that I am receiving more free help from an organization. This is a blessing especially since I’ve missed the phone call and have to walk to place in order to receive the good news.

                My night winds down like any other. Then I search the BET Awards Twitter hashtag and learn that rapper Remy Ma has blocked me for NO reason. Hey que sera, sera (whatever will be, will be!). 

XD30 – Day 22 – Eyes on the Prize

                I am focused on preparing for the next phase of my career. Yes, there is a whole lot of negative things swirling around me; but, I refuse to let them distract me from my goal. Actually, I am glad that I am away from my cell right now because I get focused. I can hone in on what I need to do.

                Confession: I have received assistance for training and there’s a 90%+ passage rate; but, I am still doing my part to adequately prepare for the training. I always want to walk into the training center knowing what the topic is. I have never walked in cold without knowing anything. I own my learning and feel that although I am receiving assistance, it is still my responsibility to learn as much as possible.

                I have never told anybody anything about it because I only care about outcomes not steps. I never broadcast everything that is going on because when I do announce it. I am very general about discussing certain things especially when they haven’t come to fruition yet. Personally, I dislike people broadcasting every move you make. Focus on outcomes, not impressing people with the whole ‘look at me’ thing. Be productive not busy!
