I appreciate any feedback. That's always a good start, right?
I feel like the universe is trying to say something. A good friend approached me about a position with a company that I am familiar with and know several of employees there. Perks? Work from home office. Nice base. Good benefits. Unlimited vacation (although I know how that really works :-), and a different role. If you recall, I excepted a position with a very small company that is almost 100% commission. I was so frustrated at my current role and I think they were ready for me to leave the party. Even though I have received so much feedback from my clients asking where I was going and that they hope to work with me again. Seriously. I haven't had an ego stroke like this since being in the Quiktrip the other day and someone bought my coffee. I'm easy to please-what can I say? I digress.
I am continuing to discuss the opportunity with my friend. I worked with him for several years. I realize I should say I feel on ethical since I excepted the position with the other company and I'm starting there on Friday. However, I realize that in the world we ultimately have to do what is best for us and exit gracefully sometimes even if it disappoints someone. My concerns with potential new gig is that I'm not sure I will be good at it. And while the industry itself doesn't excite me, the company and people feel like a good fit. I have this insatiable desire to just do something that really challenges me. If it doesn't work out, then it doesn't work out, right? I mean it won't be the first thing in my life that hasn't worked out if it doesn't work out. I'm a little nervous about travel as it would be short but fairly frequent. However, I just feel like I need to flip a switch. Maybe I can't handle it but well....I just give it a shot. I don't know. Maybe it's a bad decision?
Something is up in my life – I can feel it. My intuition has been super spot on for the last couple of weeks. It's almost been crazy. However, I was a little caught off guard when my kids told me that their dad watches the videos of us when we were married. They said "Daddy likes to watch this one video of you on the way to the hospital when you were pregnant with S7. He says it's the only time you seemed shy." He also wished me a happy Mother's Day and said no one could be a better mother. He had not wished me that since we were married. But I just "knew" he was going to this year. Not saying any of this means anything but I like it when my intuition is spot on because sometimes it helps me feel like I'm making better decisions ? Of course, I'm stubborn so I like to wing it.
I don't know. Just talking outloud.
