Time of Transition

Soon I will be starting a new job and I am really excited to be moving forward in my career. I hate to say it, but I am feeling very anxious. Sometimes transitions are bitter sweet (bitter honey, maybe). I like change – I think it's important. Whether it is wanted or unwanted it helps us grow. There are times when I feel like even if I have time to prepare it's never enough. Soon I'll be walking into my new place of work and there will be so many things thrown at me. Life will not be put on pause and the world will not slow down for me. All I can do is pray I can make it through this period with an eased mind, with a positive attitude, and the energy to do what I need to do.

Not only am I excited to start at a new place, but I will be leaving my first job I had out of college. I will always have a special place in my heart for it. This is a place where I was able to grow and learn. The feeling of familiarity is comforting. The feeling of being stuck and never-changing is displeasing. No hard feelings against my place of work. Personally I feel like I could not move forward in the position I was in. Change is good. I hope that whoever needs a push, a word of encouragement, or a sign will use this. Assess your situation, consult the people you trust, and make the move.
