Welcome to 2023!
I actually look forward to welcoming 2023 as a time I am going to work closely and intimately with new colleagues and a boss. I thought a lot about remaining self-employed for a long period of close to 7 years as I felt that temperamentally I am whirlwind that needed a change of scenery in order to feel excited about work or getting out of bed at all. With that change, I decided that I should erase all past employment on my Linkedin prior to that period I felt most alive.
I took close to 4 months to go from part time to full time employment with my current employer. I remembered in my past social media accounts of how the end 2014 had been when I left a previous employer. It was filled with dread yet full of optimistic hope that I can regain my own freedom to chart a certain desired course in my career.
2023 a year of commitment
I felt that I do not want to tick off what that employer wanted in their corporate checklist but create my own chart where I can finally dream of being the writer or go on a desired course of adult education and so on. So, 2022 had been a season where my past dreams were fulfilled in a small and intimate way. As the year comes to an end as I was contemplating full time employment, it was a season of clarity, certainty, tremendous level of faith and courage to believe that I can run someone else’s business and tick off their charts. I spent hours visualizing the boss’s corporate goals and felt that it synced closely with my heart’s desire. And so, I signed on after close to 4 months of waiting and heart preparation. It took that long as I felt that a full-time commitment is going to be a tremendous responsibility and when the time is ripe you will sense the blessings from the boss where you just have to receive the gift of employment with open heart and hands.
