RE: Back to it: disappointments and new opportunities

in #blog6 years ago (edited)

I must repeat something poopybh said that stuck. Humañs have children, goats have kids. In times uncertain and evil invading everywhere, little things like that matter.
On the job front, was what you were doing what you want to do for the rest of your life? Is it what makes you happy. If the answer is no, then it is a blessing. Like mama bird shoves the baby from the nest, this is your opportunity to fly.
Do what you are good at and like doing.
After managing corporations, now I fix things, mow lawns, install sprinkler systems. All the things that high school bubble test said I would be best in. Imagine the laughter when they got the results back and the teacher said "Laura's best suited careers are construction and landscaping". I was a 80 lb little girl.
Fast forward many many years later and guess what I'm doing?
I never heard one person say, wow you invoiced those customers really well, or great job on those budgets! Now I get hugs and people saying "you fixed it" or "my yard is beautiful""thank you"
Congrats on you're new baby. If you're happy she will be too. We don't need much from parents other than a "sense of security and stability".
Everything will fall into place, once you persue your dreams!
