Who am I?

3:56pm I spend so much time trying to figure out who I want to be. I am always trying to change something, improve, grow, get better. I never examine who I am. I never really know what I am about. I don’t stop and say, “this is me.” I am a guy who is good at getting jobs. I like to get jobs. I am good at it. The interview went well this morning.

Talent wins

9:04am at work. My phone was in the bedroom this morning while my wife was sleeping so I couldn’t do my usual early check in. Thought for today. Like being a football coach at the ends of the day talent wins. In hospice having talented nurse case managers grows census. Amazing how much easier this job is when you have a talented team

Reason for overdrive lost

12:19pm doing ops call this week drained me. But the situation last week has just popped my balloon. I feel small. This is a good test. Focus. Grow. Lead.

Evolution

My first couple of jobs were rewarding. I liked the sense of identity, the purpose and lifestyle having a job afforded me.

When I was younger I liked being a student. I graduated from high school and went on to college, even grad school.

At some point I tired of being a student. I wanted to evolve and grow. That is when I got my first job.

After more than a decade of working jobs I strived to take the Next step and evolve again. But what is the next step? Being a student just happened. I was told to go, I liked it and continued. Getting a job took persistence but there were opportunities and I took them. Finding the next step is not so clear. Where do I go, how do I make money, support myself and my family?

Those questions and the answers you live with will be how you spend a majority of your years on this earth.
