I got out with a friend for some distraction, helped him with a project. That seems the only way to avoid getting self-centred and pessimistic!

This last fall I got the “perfect” job. I was a web developer. I got paid well, I got to work my own hours, I had a good boss, etc. It was perfect. Great.

Then I realized that he needed someone who’s ability was higher than mine. Also, I found self- motivation VERY difficult. I was happy when I finally quit.

Anyhow, I checked email and it turns out I still have 4 other options still in play with personal recommendations on my side for two of them.

Time to get out of the house.

You should have pictured yourself getting your first raise and being at that job for a long time and keeping it.

Most of the time when we wish for something and think that something might not work out, it shall be.

That’s what you did.

Next time, think positive all the way through!!!

The thing is this other opportunity is a place I worked many years ago. And now I wonder what their reaction will be. I feel like jelly.
