I started working at my new job/career/office 34 days ago. And I have to be honest…the learning curve has been steep. I want to be active and contribute yet I know this is a time for me to learn.

I’m not used to being in the backseat. But something about this experience is telling me I need to tolerate the uneasiness for now. The sense of stepping back has left me with a desire to feel like I’m good at something. Because lately I’ve felt like I’m not good at anything.

So yesterday, I took off and did something I’m good at: hitching up a 4,000 pound trailer and setting up camp somewhere.

And that somewhere was exactly where I needed to be.
