So 2013 has begun and is seemingly a year for change. I have had several calls about job opportunities, received one position and am studying yet another year of Psychology, the prospect of marriage is on the horizon and I am turning 30!
As it turns out going out into the big world in search of new prospects is quite a daunting task for one such as myself. I prefer stability over chaos and looking for a new job AND finding it offer anything but stability. I suppose once the new job starts and I am well ensconced in the work I will find that sense of balance again, but until that moment I think these feelings of upheaval and uncertainty will remain.
"Change is a good as a holiday", right?
It wouldn't be a idiom if it weren't true, but that doesn't change the fact that change is just that... change... something unpredictable, incomprehensible and, to me, terrifying.
What if I am not good at whatever the new job is? What if I dislike the work or the people?
Do you ever get that feeling in your gut that is telling you something just doesn't fit? Could it be me that is the something? Or is it just a case of the job shuffle jitters?
I should feel like this...
... but I feel like this
I suppose time will tell, but until then ... I am not sure I will like the ride.
