My gut feeling to steer my career
It hasn’t been easy trying to decide on what to do. Should I resign or stay and finish at least a year’s worth in experience? Spending all these weeks trying to answer that one question led to me ask another one. Wouldn’t deciding to resign been made easier if my instinct proved that is was the right thing to do?
I’ve always trusted my gut feeling in deciding what to do next. It doesn’t have the perfect track record, but it has brought me some of the wonderful experiences in my life, forgetting all my fears of rejection and finally falling in love with the most wonderful person for instance. Because I trusted my instinct, I left that God foresaken house I used to stay in and I now have the pride of stand on my two feet, earning money on my one, being completely independent. It now seems that I need to rely on it once again.
If I did feel like resigning is the best thing to do, I would have finished updating my résumé and started seeking a new job. But, no, I haven’t done that, though I have the time and resources to spend. It doesn’t feel right.
So now, I would stay and finish the new project in time to have my first year of work experience, hoping to get rid of my programmer’s block the soonest. Maybe then it would feel right to move onto another job and another field.
Only time would tell IF I’ve made the best decision.
Have you been in a situation like I am now? How did you resolve it? It would be great to hear from you. You can leave your thoughts on this below. ;) Thank you!
