I, the least likely to ever take a risk, have taken the
biggest risk of my life. I quit my job! I have a few jobs lined up for August,
but I’m hoping that I don’t actually have to do them. I’m going to spend the
summer working towards my dream of being a full-time writer because I have the
greatest amount of peace and happiness in my life when I am free to write at
will. The last year of full-time employment was suffocating and at times
depressing because I didn’t have time to devote to my true passion in life. I’m
ready to grow as a writer and I know that won’t happen with me barely having
time to write.
I expected that I would be afraid, but I’m not. I feel like
I am making the right move at the right time. I have a lot of goals for myself
over the summer and I also have the comfort of knowing that I have a plan B. I
hope that plan A works because writing is my dream job, but if it doesn’t at
least I’ll be able to say that I gave it an honest try and I devoted months to
improving my writing career. No matter how this turns out, this is one of the
few times in my life that I am doing something solely for me.
Wish me luck!
