This blog has become more of a journey into my new career rather than a journey into my transition from maleness to femaleness. But that is pretty much my life as of late. I don't mind the male side of me, as I really don't pay much attention to it when out in the world. I don't have to because that's who I am too, and I take pride in being well-dressed and well-groomed as much as I can in the business world. I don't know that I'll ever really be out of the closet as far as dressing goes. Sometimes I get gussied up because it's fun, but mostly I just like more lounging attire to unwind after a long day. I just like wearing whatever feels good to me at the time without anybody telling me that it's wrong. I admire those who make the transition into their true female selves. It takes a lot of courage, which is a shame since we just want to be ourselves. Anyway, all of the new AFLAC associates had individual meetings with our "bosses" and the head trainer today. Although, after my fourth week in the business, I haven't opened any new accounts, everyone is impressed with my work ethic. All they said was to keep doing what I'm doing and the money will come. So, that's what I'll do. I'm going to do some tweaking with my approaches and also call on some of my old contacts to get things going, but other than that, I'll keep at it. If nothing else, I'm getting a lot of exercise and fresh air  and meeting a lot of people. So, we'll see.

It sounds like you've figured out where you fit in the transgender continuum. It is a difficult thing to come to terms with for many trans people. It was for me. Wishing you the best of luck with ​the business, and with life in general.

I agree completely with Lori. I am thinking the same way as well. It’s perfectly okay to lounge about as you wish and to “go no further” with anything let alone transition. Whatever works for you is all that matters.

You do have an excellent attitude and work ethic. As you said keep trying new approaches and have fun with it. Be upbeat, friendly and professional, and the customers will come.
