[quote=Anonymous]There were times that I have turned down promotions where I thought "Wow, what am I thinking? I don't know if another opportunity this good will ever come along." Or times where I've had a bad team member, or a crazy boss, or some really sucky assignments. Or even a fight with a great boss. It has ALWAYS worked out. Life just does work out, especially if you're ambitious and act toward what you want. We go through what I always refer to as "dark times" and I've always come through it. It's not over 'til you're dead. I don't know if that is encouraging or sort of dark (maybe both?), but the long view is so helpful. Unfortunately it's much easier to have perspective looking back than forward. I'm 10 years into my career and have maybe 4 or 5 major "Oh shit" moments, and just in the last year have I gotten to the point where I don't freak out over them, I can more easily recognize that this too shall pass and I'm resourceful, I'll sort it out.
