I haven’t been writing, I won't say I haven’t had time that’s a cop out. I have however been dealing with my choices and my feelings. These last few weeks at work I haven’t felt as though I was properly contributing to the company, so I discussed this with my other co-workers. They kindly encouraged me to keep on trucking and I would figure it out, or get more comfortable in my role. I would love to announce that is exactly what happened.
The truth is, my paper routes, school and other odd jobs did not prepare me for the combination of pressure this particular role provided. Not to say that in time or with more experience I could have excelled as the second in command at this particular position. My trial period was fast approaching its end. So when I had a meeting with my higher management today we agreed, I might be happier elsewhere. If nothing else in a different role, manager I can handle, the rest of it not so much. I won’t even discuss what “it” is; trust me you don’t want to know.
I will continue to follow my dreams although with a bit more caution. I jumped at an opportunity I was naïve enough to think I could handle without much practice. So here’s to practice, to learning, to focus, to dreaming, to living, to doing your best and having no regrets. To moving on and being okay with it.
