Tonight, I’m thinking back on a post from a few months ago about embracing my professional calling. That was six months ago, and today it just seems all the more apparent. And as apparent as it seems, I feel even more fortunate to be where I am. So now comes the hard part–doing instead of feeling. In theory it shouldn’t be that hard. I should feel very excited and motivated knowing that I have lots of (the right) people in my corner. But in past situations like this one, I’ve become complacent. When momentum has shifted in my direction, I tend to slow down a bit. I’m not as proactive as I usually am. I hold back and just try to relish the moment, the initial win, only to let the moment fade and real opportunity expire. 

It’s easy to vow that this time will be different. All it takes is for me to say those words. How can I make sure this time it actually is different? I suppose acknowledging my weakness is a start…
