The Game of Life: College Edition: New beginnings

Things have been going at a very high speed recently, I’ve moved into a new house, been coaching in different parts of the state, and have recently accepted a new job as a field technician for a science and engineering company here in Pensacola. Getting this job has allowed me to relax just a little bit, as I don’t have to worry about finding a stable financial income for the coming months. This job will definitely be a challenge, but they are willing to teach and I am willing to learn so it should be a lot of fun. These new beginnings are always stressful, but nobody really talks about the transition period between your last chapter of your life and the new one. Personally, I think the transition period is even more stressful because of the waiting and the uncertainty of most factors that are at play. Once those factors (jobs, housing, gym memberships, etc.) have been taken care of, it’s easier to do away with any anxiety about the change because you’re just glad it’s finally happening! That’s how I’ve been recently. Normally, I would be a ball of anxiety starting this new job, but now I’m more excited than nervous, and more relieved that I have a day job in the first place! When looking at these new beginnings, take a breath during the transition period, and welcome the change once it gets there. I’m thankful for this upcoming journey and I’m glad I am able to share it with you all!
