You have to be confident in this world. You have to know your value and live accordingly.
By end of day tomorrow I have to make a decision that may alter the course of my career. You see… A few months ago i joined an organization that “sold me a dream”. They painted a picture of the work place and working environment that simply wasn’t true. I had to learn the hard way.
My very first day on the new job i quickly realized that i’ve made a mistake. I stayed with the company for a few weeks but decided to terminate the relationship one month in.
Did I jump the gun or did I make a decision that was best for me?
That’s a question I have been struggling with for the past few months. There have been times when I’ve told myself that maybe i should have stuck it through… Other times i’ve patted myself on the back for trusting my gut and for leaving a toxic environment. The “professionals” usually tell you to stick it through even if the job isn’t a fit *rolling eyes*. I say bet on yourself!
Truth be told – i am 100% comfortable with the decision i made (to leave). Since then I have been a part of multiple creative projects as well as spent time refining my prospecting skills and scored high profile meetings with leaders in some of the biggest companies in the world!
I am still looking for my next “home” (job), but i’m certain that what should be will be. I will eventually land with a company that shares the same values as me, offers me the role i want along with the right compensation.
So the decision I’ll make by end of day tomorrow will most likely be that of a confident woman, one who believes in her own abilities, and trusts that she will be presented with the right opportunity… Eventually!
I bet on myself!
