Today at work I had a bad day and my gremlins came out strong. I have a job that requires a high degree of accuracy and I am still in the training phase. I feel like I am not doing so good at my job because my accuracy is not good. I feel Like maybe this job is not for me and I get frustrated and want to quit. This is not my dream job but there are alot of things that I do like about it. When I pass my accuracy and productivity I will be able to work from home which is my goal but I have a feeling I won’t make it there. I listened to the recent book club blog and tried the exercise of asking the universe for something so I asked for a sign if this is what I am supposed to be doing and I came into work the next day and had a bad day! Is that my sign! how do I know if it is?
Hi, I don’t really have a question but more of a response to the beliefs section. I realized while I was going to school that something wasn’t right, I was feeling off like I was not connecting with anybody and it was making me feel very uncomfortable around people. What I had discovered is that I had anxiety and with that I had alot of gremlins saying lots of things. I almost quit school because of it but I didn’t and I ended up graduating with honors somehow. But once I finished school I was scared that now I had to go out in the world and work and do what I went to school for and I felt I couldn’t do it. I ended up trying different things but I think I would quit because I didn’t feel like I knew what I was doing so before being fired I would just quit. I tried many therapists for my anxiety but I didn’t feel like they knew how to help me, like I was never going to change and that is just the way I am. I know alot of my beliefs and where they come from but I haven’t been able to change them and I am hoping that this course will be able to help me do just that so I can live a less fearful life.
Hi Everyone,
I already introduced myself earlier but I found that I did actually do some other tests in the past (2012) to try and figure out what I wanted to do for a career. I did a Strongs Interest survey that said I was a RCI (Realistic, Conventional, Investigative) and I did a Myers-Briggs Type Indicator which showed a ISFP (Introversion, Sensing, Feeling, Perceiving). I know I am an introvert for sure and at this point in my life I don’t care if I have a so called career! I feel that word just carries too much stress for me. I am not the kind of person that wants to live to work I want to work to live! I don’t like to work over time ever, I don’t like to work weekends or Holidays or nights. I just want to go to work do my job and go home and do the things that I like to do. When I was younger I thought that I was supposed to want a career and climb the ladder because that is what society expected. I thought if I had a degree people would look at me differently and respect me. I was wrong. I got a degree in a field of my passion and tried to get a job in that field but it didn’t work out how I thought and I ended up not liking what I was passionate about anymore. That is when I decided to keep my passion and my job separate. Like I said earlier I am not interested in a career perse but I do want to like my job but I am having a hard time doing that. I am hoping that this will give me some insight on why I feel the way I do about my job and to accept myself for who I am and that’s ok.
Hi Everyone,
I am excited to get started on this journey and hope to get some clarity on why I can’t be content with anything I try for work. I am a Thriver but I don’t know about any of those other ones, I haven’t taken any of those tests. I started on my quest of discovery after my kids were in school and well lets just say I am now a grandma. I thought I knew what I wanted to do but it didn’t work out so I took a different path that I have been on for a while and I am ready to make a change. I am hoping this will help me discover who I am meant to be. I feel like I have made some wrong decisions regarding my job choices and I don’t want to do it again.
