Frustration to Motivation

Time for a career change? Yes, it is. Either in receiving more growth and rewards for my dedication or I want to be looking elsewhere.

In my current job, growth development is slow. I might even get passed up for a promotion at the office. It sure does not make me feel “valued.” I wish the the managers would provide more feedback to what they are looking for; a simple yes or no if they like or not like what I'm doing. I know I can do so much more then what I am doing right now. Over the course of the year and a half I have learned a lot. I have acquired experience in event planning, coordination, sales and how to speak up.

The brand and the concept is awesome, but they really should invest in their employees more and work on communicating more effectively among all tiers involved. It brothers me that upper management are the only movers and shakers and everyone else can take the back seat.

Needless to say, I feel like I'm stuck in a runt and I just need to find the light at the end of the tunnel. It has been especially frustrating in the last few weeks taking on more responsibilities and not really seeing any reward for my efforts except not getting more work and more responsibilities.

The feeling of insecurity and instability has definitely lite a fire in my belly. Knowing that I am the only person who can make an impact in my life and career growth along with the support of friends and family, I have to brave through the stormy weather and go for it.

There isn't room for being wishy-washy and indecisiveness or even room for a lack of self-confidence. I know I have skills to offer and they are being under utilized so I have the power to change my current set in life. All I have to do is access, apply and take some action.
