Is it so very difficult to make a change of direction in our careers? In my mind, i have the image of the car I'm driving reaching a T-junction on the road, and I'm at the junction, trying my level best to turn right instead of moving stalwartly forward, but the gears are not co-operating, the traffic on the opposite is not letting me through and the policeman by the side of the road is giving me the evil eye.
I wonder how those people who made the decision to drastically change their career path did it? How did they manage to successfully venture into a new path and convince people of their skills and determination?
Maybe it is all about the determination coming through in the way they carry themselves into the situation and how they express themselves as well. If I were to reflect on my actions in comparison, I think I'm not so passionate, and have so far just given a sub-par impression. Probably that is why the feedback haven't been that good.
Well, tomorrow is another battle to fight and another obstacle to overcome. Wish me luck!
