BABE, IT'S OKAY...
Babe, it's okay if you sometimes feel lost and you have no idea what you want to achieve.
I myself was lost, trying to find a meaningful and satisfying job. If you remember correctly, I took 2 years...or thereabouts to find what I really wanted to do.
I won't say I am now 100% sure what I want to do. Right now, I will just say that I am about 80% sure..
People always say that the grass is greener on the other side. It may or may not be true. For me, I will keep searching for a job that may not neccessarily make me happy, but MOST important is that I do NOT drag my feet to work.
To me, this is the most important indicator as to whether I will stay long in a job. If you remember correctly, I switch jobs like I switch on lights like that. One month tukar, one month tukar..hahahah...some call me a job hopper but to me, it is ultimately finding the right niche for myself. Others may perceive me to be that way, but hey, this current job is the longest I have stayed and not once have I dragged my feet to work.
This, in itself is a big accomplishment for me you know.. I used to hate going to work when I was working as a secretary. Kept crying in the office. Depressing lei..
But babe, remember, jobs are hard to find now. You may not neccessarily like what you are doing now but I believe that you can persevere. There is nothing wrong if you want to look for other jobs!! Go ahead!! Why not?? Ultimately, it is your happiness that matters.
One advice though, until you have gotten a new job offer, make sure you still have a source of income. That's most important....The worst thing one can be is to be unemployed and incomeless. I was that way since last year. It was really depressing to depend on other people for money... Don't worry babe, we'll always be there for you...
yours truly, 10:38 AM
