Happily Learning and Growing
Exactly one year ago, I was sitting in a cubicle in a high rise office tower with tummy ache. It wasn't something I ate. My boss threw me under the bus again over something that's not even my fault. He wanted to cover his incapacity to do his job at my expense. The tummy ache was due to stress and fear of losing my job.
I liked what I did and enjoyed the salary, benefits and the lifestyle it afforded me. But slowly the price I paid for being the underappreciated scapegoat became too much to bear. In August 2018 I said aloud, "This time next year, I won't be here anymore." No one else heard me because I was alone in the office late again, catching up on work.
I didn't have a plan yet, never heard of Wealthy Affiliate. Even if I did my mind and time was fully occupied in trying not sink in the toxic cesspool that is my workplace.
After 5 months I was out and off to new beginnings. Since then I discovered Wealthy Affiliate and embarked on a steep learning curve. I started my own website and I'm now busy creating content for it.
There is still so much to do and learn but at least now I'm on a path I want to be on. It's not all butterflies and cotton candy - it's a challenge to enforce self discipline and adhere to a schedule that would enable me to be productive every day. It's an interesting journey of self-discovery and it's great that I have the wonderful WA community walking along with me.
