It's work issues for me. I typed out a bunch of details of what I'm going through but deleted the message cause in the end I just want to gain patience. I'm ready to move on from my current job and pursue my education. I don't want to feel trapped and hurt and resentful about not being able to make the transition "now". What I need is clarity to follow the steps I need to complete so I can make a smooth transition.
I was at this same spot this time last year and I messed up. Messed up with school deadlines. If I was successful last year I would not be here where I am today. So now this is my second chance and so far I'm not too much ahead of where I was last year. I have the experience and pain of failure though, so I"m trying to use that to push me on.
