I need a life coach. I need someone to tell me what I should do and when I should do it. I need someone to coach me through important decisions as well as lending me courage to make important decisions. If I was brave enough, I would pack it all up and move to Arizona, Texas, North Carolina, or any other fanciful destination. But will that satisfy me? Will that make me truly happy? It's hard to pack up and move to one of these destinations when I have another life to worry about. I know my 13-year-old is resilient, but just how resilient? I know she would adapt to her surroundings, make friends, and pick up right where she left off. But how do I know she won't be bullied? How do I know she won't make friends and end up hating me for forcing her to give up a life here where she has friends and success? The answer is I don't. I don't know any of these things.
I long for a job where I actually wake up every morning excited to go to work. I long for a job that fulfills me the way a personal relationship does. I long for a job that I can walk away from at the end of the day and say "Damn, I loved work today! That was a good day." I know jobs like this exist. I know people have a job that fullfils them, excites them, and one they are passionate about. But where and how the hell do I find one of those jobs?!
