Finest Worksong

Changing careers is a difficult task. It is easy to think that once you have stepped on the path, the rest of the trip follows naturally. In my case, that has been mostly true. There have been, and of course will be, points where I reconsider the decision to change careers. Like just about everyone else, I ask myself if I should be working at what I am working at. I am confident that the decisions made in April are still valid.
That is not to say that there are not difficulties in my work. Some people get confused when they hear me speaking of the challenges in my day to day. It is, after all, still a job. There will be difficult times, challenges, conflict, etc.
I also have to be careful to separate the work challenges from the challenges of relocation and separation. Am I having a bad day at work because of issues there or am I carrying too much of my personal life (or severe lack of it right now) to the job with me? This question is relevant for anyone that is working; however, up until now, I have been blessed with a relatively stable personal life.
