Again so much of this resonates with me. I went through a period of questioning everything a few years ago and haven’t stopped since. I figured out the fancy job title and big salary weren’t what I wanted but what I thought I should want. I also went freelance as a consultant but am now working for a company but a few steps down the ladder and couldn’t be happier. It aligns with what I want from life and my values. That was what I was missing the first time around. But it takes as long as it takes to figure it all out.
It's so nice to know I'm not the only one who has felt like this. It seems like there are a few places of common ground between the two of us. I'm glad we've both figured out what we're looking for and are managing to find it. Totally agree that it can take a while to figure things out though.
Love this. I’m often encouraged at work to apply for promotions or even move to a different org entirely with my boss’s blessing, just for a bigger job title but I’m not interested and it really confuses people!!
I’d also love to learn to do front crawl properly this year rather than breast stroke. And I’m intrigued by the central stalls.... do you now have a preferred area?
I’ve come across this before too. A friend is often encouraged to apply for other roles but she genuinely loves the job she has, she’s perfectly happy doing what she does.
Right now, I’d take just being able to keep my head above water, I don’t mind which form of swimming it takes. 😂
As for theatre seats, regardless of level, I always want an aisle seat or as close to an aisle as possible. And my optimum location is the front row of the dress circle. I’m short, so it usually guarantees a good view without a taller person blocking. But that can sometimes change depending on the theatre.
