Be careful what you wish for...

You just might get it!

I just had my wish come true today. I am going to do the job I asked for.

I am naturally happy. The four-year wait is finally over.

But why am I so nervous now?

I think I have been given much more than I asked for. I wished to learn first, but I was given the task of learning while delivering at the same time.

I just got hired last month and started working for the Company two weeks ago. I was initially hired to supervise a group that performs the job I that I am exposed to for five years. My boss was quite reluctant to place me in decision-making (the one I am asking for) for the reason that the industry is totally alien to me. So she gave me an offer to do the job I am confident doing, telling me that I will be rotated as soon as I understand how the Company and the industry works. Given an unexpected sum, I took the job based on my expectation that learning would be developed one step at a time.

Now I am faced with the dilema. My boss played fairy godmother this afternoon letting me know that my wish has just been granted. But I do not have any time to spare. I have to act really fast, learning and delivering at the same time. I am faced with a great challenge to prove that I can make this for myself. That I am competent. That I can do things I can be really proud of. That I am becoming what I want myself to be!

I made a wish and it came true. I wished too hard for this, and how everything fell into place seems too good to be true. I am scared but I have to do what I have to. I wished for it. I wished and now I am thankful.

I just wish the same will be for my friends with respect to their careers. I wish they will realize what they really want then set their aim for that.

....and now I also wish my husband can find the job that he is wishing for himself.

Wish!
