Today Rose says, you need to write, you need to get your thoughts down. Here goes. Time will tell if any of it is any good. I am struggling lately being stuck in this 6 x 6 area known as the cubicle. The daydreaming of doing something new and exciting, more to a passion, and less about a paycheck. I feel like I have a J-O-B, not a career. I know this is something most of us struggle with from time to time, but this is about as bad as it gets. I miss the carrot being dangled in front of me. The unknown of what is the commission check will be next month. Why do I crave the unknown? Am I nuts?
I say all this to get to this point....if you are at a point in your life where no one else depends on you, take a risk. Strike out on your own and head in a direction that brings you new challenges everyday, and challenges what you think and how you think it on a daily basis. Do something that makes you jump out of bed at 6 AM ready to take on the world. When I find myself getting out of bed on the weekends much earlier than during the week, I have to ask, Why? I think I know why, I can't wait to get out to the pole barn and create something. Build something that is useful for someone. Create something that they could hardly imagine, bring a picture to life. See them smile and say, yup that is what I was thinking.
But alas, I go to work everyday, and do what I do. I am living with purpose each and every day and I understand I have a great job, a job that most people would like to have. Great benefits, great people, and it is necessary part of my life right now, so now I feel better getting that off my chest.
