Mostly, through my career
and even work history, I’ve never really left my comfort zone. I’ve always
applied for jobs I knew I would secure. How risky is that? I guess, it falls on
the statement my wife repeatedly throws at me, “Ray you’re afraid of success!”
Man, am I? Am I so afraid of success that I choose then not to attempt
achieving it?
I have the tools for
success, but I’m very nervous to pull the trigger. I have too much to (i.e., my
family) and too much to loose. I found the non-profit sector as my area of
comfort. Lately, I find myself researching and looking into my career
opportunities in the for-profit sector. Although, I find the competition in the
for-profit sector intimidating, there are several opportunities, which I will
apply for. I hope to get over this fear of stepping out of the secure doorway
of my comfort zone. A friend (Helen Henderson) helped me try and get into the
interviewing process for for-profit career opportunities.
