It’s crazy how now I see things differently.
My career journey has been a mix of sweet and sour—though, looking back, it felt mostly sour at the time. I made many mistakes, missed a lot of things and focused on the wrong things as well. In those moments I really did feel like the worst person alive. I could never do anything right, so it seems.
Only recently am I surprised at how those really dark moments are now serving as anchorage to a bold version of me. Somehow, those pitfalls became the learning curves I now use to navigate difficult circumstances with ease.
Maybe that really bad day at work—the kind we’ve all had—just had to happen. Possibly to learn something if you allow yourself to. Be it to polish up or learn a new skill, learn about people,and perhaps learn about yourself, so that the future you can thrive.
Cheer up, make it through the tough season, you will thank yourself later.
