A Little Down Time
I'm feeling a little discouraged tonight.
I changed jobs a year ago last April. It was an extremely difficult decision to leave a group of people I loved to take on a new job late in life. After a year I don't know that I've made much progress. I like my job but I keep making dumb little mistakes. I feel I don't have the confidence of my co-workers. At this stage of my life I should have been in position of respect but it hasn't worked out that way. I'm encouraged by Provencepuss who has decided to start her own business and loyseofverlaine who is stepping forward into retirement, Myhnabird who dreams of backpacking through Europe and Mvernet who walked away from the world of work to live on her own terms. I always seem to disappoint myself let alone others. Is it just that I'm not trying hard enough?
