Make It Happen For Women: The Diary of a Job Searching Woman: Feb 23: My soul is quiet.
The truth is that I don’t want to do a job search. The truth is I don’t want to work. I just want to be a single mom that can spend time with my kids. I’m tired of being tired. I’m tired of being scared that I might lose my job. I’m tired of spending time on my job search and nothing happens.
I just want to sit quietly and wait for this all to pass. And I know it will. I want to sit and just listen to my heart, quiet, accepting and willing to just wait. Is this the wrong way to do a job search? Will it affect my career? Are we really reduced down to what we look like on paper on our resume?
I think not. In fact, I’m not going to think today. I will continue to wait. I will continue to be quiet. I will continue to just sit here. I know my heart will tell me what to do.
I will wait.
