When I accomplished something, I felt relief that I dodged another bullet, not enjoyment in the fact that I succeeded. That's no way to live.
This is how I feel about the job I started training for, when 9/11 and the .com crash came along. Every new wrinkle is a hitch, not a challenge. You're right--it's no way to live.
In addition, the assessment indicated that at least one path that I thought I might take to get out of the current situation really wasn't for me, either. It's good to avoid those frying pan into fire situations.
This is the kind of thing that would be worth almost as much as a new direction. The last one I chose for myself turned out to be something I found satisfying, but other aspects of the greater IT field made longterm employment in it horrifying. Not a good place to change to--my initial instincts about the computer industry and me were well-founded. I have a few ideas I'm noodling around, but it's time to get serious. While I can think.
