Starting out in trucking will be the most stressful part of your trucking journey due to the fact that you are inexperienced and in some cases you desperately need to make a productive income. You have to come to the realization that you have to pace yourself and forego the big paycheck in exchange for gaining experience. When you gain experience vs taking a job that pays big $$$, you avoid some of the pitfalls that force some drivers to either quit or be forced out of trucking before they really had a chance to develop a long lasting career. Take your time and learn this craft and the payoff will come sooner than you think.
