It’s Day 11 and today’s prompt is:
Change.
Wow, November feels like yesterday. I moved out of Vernon, and into my new place this month, and boy was it difficult. Probably the most difficult transition I've ever made into any new environment. Sometimes I feel like I’m still doing the transitioning.
I also made a change to my work life. Up until then, I was working at the Bath and Body Works in Manchester and LOVING it. All but the hours, of course.
I finally found a job I was good at, and thoroughly enjoyed. It was everything I wished for.
I’ll admit the shift there was difficult too. West-farms is a bigger volume location, and one of the first things I mentioned was that I was looking for full-time. They took that way more seriously than I thought they would.
Regardless of the difficult adjustments, I learned to flourish and roll with the punches. I eventually found myself working towards a Top Seller promotion, as well as a newfound freedom in my daily life.
Now if someone could snap their fingers and have my bills paid every month, life would be perfect!
No? Well, I had to try...
I might not have been as open to this back in November, but looking back, and knowing what I do now, I am insanely grateful, even reluctant for the change that got me here. It was definitely worth it the wait, and the effort.
Now it’s your turn!
What changes did you face in 2019? How will you approach change in the future knowing what you do now?
