RE: Starting anew as a Techie - by @lightforge13

in #blog6 years ago

Thanks for the comment @rosebudds. To be honest, I'm not going to disagree with you, it is late, and the learning curve is insane. I have my doubts but I revel at the challenge. I hit the ceiling of my previous designation and the thought of moving to another job doing the same mundane things day in and day out felt like a much higher hurdle than changing professions completely. Granted, I could have made the change slowly, carefully picking jobs that will eventually get me to tech, doing diplomas and so on and honestly it would have been a lot easier. However, time moves on faster than we want it to, and tech changes rapidly, so even experienced guys are always learning. But truth be told, I was given a golden opportunity to take the dive, and if it wasn't for that, I'd probably still be bored out of my mind with the same old things. I didn't plan for this at all, but we don't have much control over our future so we go with the flow and see where it takes us.
