The sun, your inner light.... whatever!
I realized I am really living my own authentic dream. In a conversation yesterday I was asked "what job would you do if you could do anything?" The amazing part was that without thinking I immediately answered "what I am doing right now". Wow. Who knew! Funny how those gut motivated responses are so telling!
My dream job is so close. I am approaching job interview number two this week. From all the applications they got, I made it to first cut. Then to the finals.... Oh how I want this job. When I saw it I thought that this position encompassed all the jobs and experiences and connections I have made over the last decade. Reading this job ad I thought "this is MY job" but was hesitant to apply due to the title and how much managerial experience they had requested. Yet, encouraged by my professor I applied. And here I am. Approaching the challenge of getting a job which would be a goal I had set for myself.... a few years early at that!
It is a good scary feeling to be here. To possibly get what I want, but also to GET it! All the responsibility that goes with... oh my. So, I will wait and see how Tuesday goes. Who knows? I don't! What I do know is that my authentic self is expressing itself every day and shattering the surface of what was. I am evolving into the new me. It is not painless nor easy, but it makes me feel positive about the future in a way I have never ever been.
