Spent many many days thinking about how this kind of systematic reduction of our own self worth to a single idea is, well, unrewarding.
Most of my time is spent sitting and evaluating everything I do. Each moment spent doing this is also a way of working out myself and where I belong in it. Double checking where I belong might actually be one of the flaws I can’t control. Making decisions based on how I think I might want to be, cause that irrational way of digging so deep into ourselves, there is almost a loop that starts and is hard to try and stop.
At 52, it has taken many years and many different types of work styles to find something I feel most comfortable in. It is the most complete I have ever felt as a staff member for any workplace I have inhabited.
Now go back and read the title.
We all have ambitions and things we would like to try and achieve in our futures. I myself have been thinking about my future and what I am going to do to improve myself. Personal Development is something promoted by many many companies and institutions to try and give employees a chance to improve their station in life. The institution I work for have always generously agreed to me spending time and finding courses to ‘Level Up’ my experience and expertise. My field of work is narrow, well to be honest very narrow, but there is many many things I can still equip my mind and technical knowledge with further course work and education I can extend my knowledge further and further.
