We Need To Talk
Today I am your inner voice. We are uncomfortable
and doing a bit of squirming trying to find that
level place from all life's little foibles.
You lost your job not long ago and all your work
to find a new one is not paying off.
Every time they look at you and suggest they were
looking for a younger person. Someone trained to
handle the stress of modern corporate America you
want to scream.
Yes you just passed the age demarcation line. Yes
you turned fifty this year. What the heck do they
think you have been doing out there in the work
world for the last 30 years if it hasn't been
learning to deal with stressful situations?
Nevermind. If you continued to work for these types
you would end up in heart attack land. At least
you now have a choice to examine the reality of your
lifestyle.
If they want to close one door in your face then that
is fine. There are other doors to open. Doors that
will provide benefits they cannot even consider.
Those 30 hard pressed years were your smoking gun.
Your focus was on someone or some thing beyond
your control pulling the trigger and you would
bite the bullet.
Well dear counterpart, that day is here. Now you
can finally see the door that would have freed you
years ago.
Now, should you choose to look you can see lots of
doors and there is no snarling tiger behind any of
them.
Relax and be your best friend for a while. Check
out who you are, what you know, and there is a lot
you have learned and experienced all these years.
Need to do a little reading? Take a course or two?
Maybe 'update your skills' on modern day technology?
Oh and can you imagine the thrill of being your own
boss, setting your own hours, and this time knowing
you share the earnings of your hard work with no one
but you?
Ah, I can feel the stress lifting off your shoulders.
Did you not realize the crushing weight you carried
for so long?
Maybe I can finally catch up on all my lost sleep
worrying about you. While I do that, why don't
you get busy and take on the rest of your life?
