Happy Sunday, dear Hivers! I hope you had a great time.
This weekend, in challenge 282, I select:
What are you meticulous about and why? Explain it.
Wow, this topic fits me like a glove. My essence lies in being meticulous, especially in my hobbies and my work, as I am very thorough when it comes to drawing, as I told you in challenge 278. Capturing every feeling on a sheet of paper or canvas fills me with joy and absolute tranquillity. Being able to convey infinite feelings to society is priceless. It is my perfect relaxation, no matter the time or place. If an idea comes to me, I capture it, even if it's on a napkin. The memory lasts and the anecdotes are always present. On the other hand, when I am at work, being an outsider because it is not my field, unfortunately in Venezuela we study one profession and end up practising another, due to the monetary balance that comes into play and we have to choose the one that carries more weight in order to survive. Therefore, from being a civil engineer where everything is square, white and grey (I am meticulous by nature), I became an analyst. What do you think? Something unusual, right? Why is this happening? Because when we graduate and apply for jobs, employers ask for a minimum of two years of experience, and without sponsorship, it is difficult. Sad but true. But that's how it is. We have to keep going and not give up. With a heavy heart, I looked for other options and, based on my profile, I got the job described above. I don't look down on it. I am grateful to life for the opportunity to learn and work in an interesting field that I didn't know the depth of until I did it. I found it attractive, so I deliver the reports and balance sheets on time, but the ideal thing is to work in the field that I sacrificed so much to get into.
In line with my current job responsibilities, the more transparent everything is, the better the financial results, and it is these results that drive me to improve every day, for my own good and that of my family.
I use Canva with the elements available in its free version and the Deepl translator, as my language is Spanish.
See you another time.
Best regards and blessings.
Little by little, you'll achieve what you set out to do. Keep up that positive attitude and you'll see!
Happy Monday!
Thank you very much for your kind words.
Have a blessed week.
Best regards.
Meticulous and thorough, my two favourite words when describing my cleaning skills. I really should replicate that in every aspect of my life. Haha.
Shifting careers as a result of circumstances is quite common in my home country as well. It's really unsatisfying. Maybe you can get back into your chosen career path when things are better, yes? It's never too late.
Good luck with everything.
Cheers!
That's right, it's never too late when happiness comes, as long as you keep on living and moving forward.
Best regards.
