How far should one reach?

Thanks Diana, you're a real love.

I love being able to come here to post about my life. I always go away feeling stronger and more secure.

You're one special lady.

Go for it Tink, you can do it! They could only WISH to have you with them!!

Tink, I have to tell you I think you can do anything you put your mind to.

I had always wanted to work in an office, work with accounting, work on a computer....etc. Well I applied for this position doing just what I wanted, only....I was just learning the computer, couldn't balance my check book and so I faked it. Yup, I got hired and then learned how to do all I needed to do my job. I ended up as Administrative Assist and then Office Manager.

All it takes is the confidence in ourselves and we can do anything we want.

You know I'm wishing you the BEST!!!

Tink, last year, I had one of those opportunities. A head hunter called about a position that was a real stretch for me. The company with a position available ended up filling it from within, but it was a very educational experience going through this process & if another opportunity like it presents itself, I will be even better prepared next time.

You should go for it and go in there as prepared as possible and with a very positive mental attitude. If it works out, you would have really accomplished something and advanced yourself. If it does not, you will learn something worthwhile from the process that may benefit you in the future. Go in with that attitude. The result is positive whether you get the job or not.

Keep us posted!!

Awww....Thanks Tink I know from reading about your last job that you have the ability to do whatever you set your mind to. You have a good work ethic and I think that any employer would be happy to have you work for them. The challenge is to believe in yourself and go for it!!!!

[Janet]

That's exactly what I meant too!! You can do anything you want to do.

I knew I didn't have any of the experience they were looking for, but I KNEW I COULD DO IT if given the chance...

There are not too many things I can't do...quite a few I don't care for, but if I put my mind to it, I can do anything...I AM WOMAN!!!!!.....LOL

Go for it hon. If you don't you will spend the rest of you life (or atleast awhile) wondering "what if?". Sounds like you won't be crushed if it doesn't happen so they can't kill you for trying . Best of luck & let us know how it goes

If this is something that you really want then go after it. Isn't this what part of life is about? Heading out "reaching" to make our dreams a reality?
