Slow down you're doing fine

It's been a full year since I've graduated from college. Which to me is insane as it feels like just yesterday I was there hanging out with friends and excited to find my dream job. Now a year later, Unfortunately I haven't found my dream job yet. When I think too much about my dream job I get discouraged, feeling like at 25 I should have a better job, something pertaining more to the degree in which I worked so hard for. I've spent many nights scanning job postings on Linked In but I still feel so unqualified. Though yesterday as I was writing, a cover of Billy Joel’s Vienna played on my song list. This song really comforted me at that time because parts of the song really stuck out to my and my current situation and feelings.

“Slow down, you crazy child, You’re so ambitious for a juvenile.”

“You’ve got so much to do and only so much hours in a day”

“Slow down, you’re doin’ fine. You can’t be everything you wanna be before your time.

“You’ve got so much to do and only so much hours a day” reminds me that I am doing my best in the amount of time given to me each day, I have to remember that along with my night job, I am also helping my mom to pay the bills, taking care of the house and taking care of my disabled sister.

“Slow down you crazy child, You’re so ambitious for a juvenile” “Slow down, you’re doin’ fine. You can’t be everything before your time” As much as i am ambitious for a successful writing career I need to remember that my whole life does not revolve around my career and that I need to step back and enjoy life and where I currently am in my life. I may be a young adult, but I am still young and have a long life ahead where I can gain experience and improve my confidence. I feel that I have become more confident by creating my blog and sharing my writing online.

I try to remind myself that I must rely on God’s timing, I may not be ready yet for my dream job but someday I will be.
