Times....... they are a changin'

Sorry for all my subliminal, angst ridden, 'don't be afraid of change' posts of recent - today (well, now it is technically yesterday) I resigned from the job I have had for the last 8 years. Difficult? Yes. I will start a new and very challenging role with a new firm in five weeks. Excited? Yes. Terrified? Definitely. A lot more responsibility? you bet. So - here's to change, the future, ensuring you are true to yourself no matter how petrifying that may seem. The right decision? Only one way to find out. Happy weekend beautifuls xx

Congratulations and best wishes. Far too many people remain static and with the status quo simply because they are afraid to take the risk that goes with the jump - like the high diving board. I have been the person who was too terrified of the unknown. The hardest part is over...you've jumped - now just swim - do a little back-float and enjoy the water.

You said it yourself - ensuring you are true to yourself, no matter what. And, as Rita said, the hardest part is making the decision. Now that you've made it, make it the right one! In a few weeks time you won't remember what was so scary about it at all! Congratulations!
