Part of the process for finding myself is learning a new skill so that I can move into a position that more aligns with what I want to see in my future. The learning is new, but so far I am finding so much about my new skill that excites me.

It has been a long time since I have been in a job that excites me. Not only am I learning information that is interesting, I am understanding the information. The more that I learn, the more excited I am about my future. My current position is in customer service and after so many years in that area, it is time for a change. It’s not a complete change however, I am taking what I already know with me. After more than 40 years of life, its good to know that the skills I have already acquired will be of use to my future.

What I am finding interesting is that now that I have this direction, something to focus on, I am doing better at my current position.
I haven’t changed jobs yet. My circumstances haven’t changed. But something in me has changed. Having somewhere I want to go makes where I am right now feel a little easier. There is a clock on this chapter.

I still don’t like where I am or know where this path will ultimately take me, but I can finally look forward with hope.
