#workself

Today let’s start with some questions for you. ​Are you confused with your present role at work? Are you in search of what’s next, yet not really been able to find or articulate what it is You feel you have hit a dead-end  You are looking for a way out. You are unsure and uncertain When I was not sure of anything. After spending more than a decade, I came across a phase in my career where…

I feel a division between my personal and public self. Between who I am at home and who I am at work (or school). Between who I “truly” am and who I am in less familiar situations, or at least those that feel unsafe, awkward, or formal. 

"Business casual” feels like a costume I hate to wear.

I’m not sure if the goal should be to accept this as natural, try to become less divided, or try to obtain a flexible, creative job that breaks down the barriers between home and work (like freelancing). That’s what I really want to do, but is that running and hiding from some sort of necessary adult development?
