I agree, there is no better feeling than that of self-satisfaction on achieving something with your skill. Incidentally after acquiring my diploma in real estate dealing and when I sold my first property after a lot of negotiation and sacrificing all my commission. I then spent another $275 at Mooseheads partying with my customer in Canberra. Right now I am feeling bored as my company is delaying my return and my local project is not taking off.
I'm sure it'll all kick off again eventually, I hope soon.
