A Little Note

I have spent a lot of time this week thinking about previous career decisions. This reflection is pretty rare for me, as I don’t usually dwell on things in my past. However, signs of a past job opportunity were really present in my life this week. I know that I made the right decision for me, but it’s easy to think “what if?” from time to time.

Have you ever had one of these moments in your career? I’m confident that things will continue to work out for you and for me.
