So Much Is Just Luck

It's been a hard thing to admit to myself, but I'm finally saying outloud that I need a new job. Right now I absolutely love my co-workers, and I respect my bosses. Loving the people with whom one works, is so hard to find. I've been afraid of leaving that behind and taking the chance that I just may detest any new co-workers.

You see, my current job has never defined me. I took this job because the things that I thought would define me and I'd be passionate about, turned out to totally suck ass.

From those jobs, I realized that it was more important to find people with whom I enjoyed spending the majority of my waking hours than to have a job in a field that I was excited about, but disliked the people.

Now I'm asking myself - can I find a job that's both? A job that I am passionate about and also enjoy the people and how I spend my waking hours?

Of course the field I'm most excited about is overpopulated - in high demand - super competitive... I pretty much have only one connection... a person I'll see in a couple of weeks... and the rest is luck. Luck.

A little determination. A connection. And an uber-shitload of luck.


And oh, I decided for sure against grad school in psychology... conflict of interest was too great.
