Michelle, what you said really resonated with me! I've often wanted to live somewhere else, work somewhere else, etc. but I convinced myself that I'd just be taking my negative depressed brain with me and that I would never change. But you have given me hope! Thank you!
Well, thank you and good luck! I was scared to death to try something different and my husband was changing jobs at the same time, but we decided to do it together. I used to work odd hours and weekends at a Nursing Home and went from there to the radio station. Talk about a change! I had never even been in a radio station before, much less work an 8-5 job, no weekends (unless I want to) and a very flexible boss that allows me not to miss anything with my children. I have met so many wonderful people working in sales and I love being creative in writing ads! I was very lucky and I am very happy (most days) where I am. One important thing I learned is that as I removed myself from the negative atmosphere, I also removed myself from the negative people in it. I guess I love being around people in general, but I limit my time with the negative ones. Life is too short to spend around people who bring you down! Besides, if I were at my old job I wouldn't be able to be on BYC all day! Give it a try! I am going on 3 years, and kicking myself for not trying it sooner!
