I feel like blogging today after many weeks.
After a very long and disturbing emptiness, I am finally starting with a small casual role in a jewellery company. I am nervous, yet hopeful. Maybe this is a first step towards building a career that I dreamt of. I am feeling very anxious.
In the last few months I have doubted myself many times and have quietly and desperately longed for nothing but a chance to prove myself. I have dreaded meeting people because I was scared of the question "what do you do?". I have been afraid of my personal life being adversely affected by my (un)employment status.
Today I am just looking back at the last 6 months and praying that this would be the beginning of better luck. Although I know my job is quite insignificant and so am I, but I am thankful for this opportunity because an odyssey starts with one step.
Now is when I most need the well wishes and blessings of friends and family.
I can truly relate myself to your story of securing a job. Yet, not afraid to meet people and tell them about my employemt status. I believe in passing the information beacuse you never know, sometimes luck knocks on your door step with someone's arrival.
ReplyDeleteIn the past 6 months, I have learnt a lot about myself, people in the industry, people in general and last but not the least the importance of networking.
A person of your caliber will excell in WHATEVER you do. So, have faith in yourself and be confident. You will do well.
Don't forget to pray for me though. I am sick of this drought.
My best wishes.
Sure. Thanks and all the best to you too!
ReplyDeleteAs it turns out, unfortunately, what I thought would be a baby step, wasn't even a step. I do not have any job still and have not been getting any shifts either .:( . feeling bloooo bloooo blooo
