The search continues.

The search continues for a way to get out of customer service for good. I’ve been stuck in this field for over 20 years, and have outgrown it. It’s nothing but a never ending pit of people needing help and sometimes nothing is ever good enough. This field has changed me from being a happy extrovert to an unhappy partial introvert…possibly fully…but I still feel an emptiness, and a need for company. I guess some part of me hopes that there is still good in humanity.

Anyway, my biggest goal right now is to go into business for myself, because I’ve realized that I’m not getting any younger and no matter what job I try to get, I always end up in customer service due to my experience. Since getting my first job, I have not been able to break free of this field, because I’m so good at what I do. This field does not make me happy. I do it because I need the money, however, I’m an empath that takes in all the negative energy, and it’s so draining. When I get out of work, I’m so tired, I can’t concentrate on doing anything but relaxing. Therefore, it distracts me from the important things, like honing my passions. And speaking of passions, I opened a website a few months ago to the public. It gets views, but no one buys. That tells me something is off, and I need to change whatever it is. If I’m going to make a living and finally be able to leave my job, then my site needs more traffic and actual customers. It all feels like a far away dream.

Even a journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. You can get to your goals. Just keep trying. Determination alone is not the answer but without it you may remain in place.
