Control

In my quest to find a new job, I've realized just how impatient I really am. Well, I've always known that I'm impatient, but the newest challenge in my life has just proven this.

There's so many jobs that I would like to try in my life. Like working for a CVB, or destination marketing firm. Working for a Hospitality PR firm, or restaurant development company. Become a really good bartender. Own my own event planning facility/bakery. Marketing for a university, or other non-profit. Work for winery/become a sommelier (that would be bad-a!). Travel writer/freelance writer, and lastly, become a university professor. Yeah, that's my game plan, though not necessarily in that order, lol! So many jobs, so little time!

And that's exactly my point. I am so driven, that I tend to forget that progress comes in stages, not all at once. I am such an achiever, that I get frustrated by slow progression - I want it all at once, and I want it NOW! What I need to do, is sit back and relax and learn to appreciate the opportunities that God has ALREADY placed in my life. I'm so focused on the present, that I am not living in the present, and it's soooooo important to live in the moment. I need to let God call the shots, and relinquish my need to be in control all the time. After all, He is in control, not me. I cannot achieve success without Him, so it's best to just let Him do His thing.
