"The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers." - M. Scott Peck
Lately I've been feeling stuck. For every small step forward, I take a step back, and end up in the same place going nowhere. I try really hard to not set my heart on a job, because when I get that dreaded call or email that someone else was hired it is a little crushing, especially when you think the interview went well and really like the people who potentially were going to be your boss and coworkers. I was really hoping for this job this time and hoping to move forward. It seemed to be everything I am looking for in a job, planning events, meeting people, and even a little traveling. But again, this is just not the road I am supposed to be on at this time in my life.
And for now, I am thankful that I at least have something to "fall back" on and taken the part-time job, but it really feels like a step back. The few hours I do work feels like the longest hours of my life and leaves me restless and unmotivated, which is never a good thing. But for now I will stick with this opportunity even though I am already looking to what's next. I will remember to stay strong and carry on.
Any tips on how to get unstuck?
