Career Quandry and Opportunity
Why are things so complicated? Or at least, why do they seem so complicated? I had an interview last Friday with AFLAC. Not something I would have even considered until recently. I found myself excited about the opportunity during the interview. Just underneath the excitement, however, lie a thick layer of doubt. It was doubt about myself. During the interview I feared that I might be appearing a little lackluster, void of enthusiasm. Interestingly, I think now that my outward appearance during the interview might actually be a positive change. What was really different was that “Mike the poser” was missing. This is an important juncture for me. I need to be prayerful of this entire career search process. I think, really, that I am now more down to earth, more relaxed, but still confident and professional. I just need to keep that reference point. Feel good about me, don’t get too charged up, or too down in the dumps. Keep it going ole’ boy! I’m proud of you.
