The new gig I’ve been offered officially starts in a couple of days and I’ve started turning over work to the current team. My gas! I realized that I’m actually turning over 5-years’ worth of HR work and being such a cry-baby, I welled up in the middle of an email to them. Pffsh. Hormones talaga.
This new gig- a lot of people have been asking, aren’t you scared? Hah. Honestly, the thought, when I allow it to, overwhelms me. When I allow it to, the huge and looming responsibility scares the wits out of me, but my first response to the question would also be truthfully, No. I am not scared. No, am not trying out to be Supergirl and am not trying to be haughty and arrogant. I do sometimes have to scream in my head, kaya ko ba ito?!
But people don’t see that-it’s just the way I am, since the beginning. They get me to talk in front, meet people, they push me in front for group projects, make me talk to intimidating people, and I can. Because I truly think that there’s nothing to be scared of, save for when you’re doing something wrong. I mean, they are still regular people, apart from the fact that these are leaders. It’s not a big deal.
So for the past week, I’ve been in a limbo, until I can get everything up and running by next week.
Sometimes, I really love changes, the good ones, and the butterflies-in-the-tummy I get.
And as soon as one embraces the new, one has to say ciao to the known safety of days gone by.
