The beginning of a new era

I've done my first week as a full time employee in over two years and I absolutely loved it.

If someone had told me that only 3-4 months ago I would have laughed at them, but as circumstances change, the same situations can quite suddenly have a very different feel to them.

Return to work. Have the same salary you had when you started 11 years ago. Be happy about it.

Those statements above don't look like seeds that can grow into happiness, but for me they did. It is almost as if I feel like I should have done this a long time ago, but I wouldn't have been ready for anything like this until just recently.

If there is anything I have learned this week it is that things change, and our attitudes to a specific proposition changes when outside influences changes. I can see why someone with their back against the wall make great success stories, to put it that way.

Reframing can come from so many different things and it can happen at varying speeds. The reframing of "work" as the worst possible thing for me took time and MLM indoctrination. The controversial opinion, at least in IM circles, that a paid job is in deed a good thing came to me rather suddenly. I suppose it took me about 3 seconds to snap out of the "Jobs are for losers" attitude when it became apparent that google ads was not a reliable way to make a living.

Can I put a disclaimer on here? I'm not like everybody. What currently works for me is unlikely to work for anyone else because you guys think differently from me, but also because you are in a different situation from me. So what is right for you has very little to do for what is right for me.

Can you think of a time when your opinion of something or someone has changed VERY suddenly?

Cheers,
Jon ( still progressing )
