After coming to terms with my selected vocation in teaching, I felt that I might be less active on LinkedIn in 2023. 2022 is interesting as I have been online where I can access social media every other time. When I am free and I come online there would be someone intriguing to view and spark conversations with.
In summary, as I reflect on 2022 I felt that I have shared extensively on my seasons of existential crisis where I did not know who I am beyond the job title.
When life throws such a curveball like given the opportunity to pursue a new thing, I thought I would really be uncomfortable. But I am glad I embraced the new growth out of my comfort zone by training in a complete different industry in events.
I met many passionate trainers whose vast knowledge inspired me to excel at assessment and they were exceptional in getting me to read beyond the syllabus.
Studying something outside my vocation really helps my self confidence and I felt a sense of accomplishment this year by having the courage to pursue the novel.
My personal growth has been an enigma to me as I do not really know myself. I spent self employment years in solitude trying to figure what my introverted self really wants and 2022 is that milestone where I felt that kind of empowerment to be true to oneself instead of projecting an ideal work self that is not authentic.
Coming to 2023, what I do know is that after a long season of self employment I have to transition to working with a group of colleagues, clients and students regularly. This is where I will have to write a new narrative of my personal identity.
