I Have tried the following professions
Optical Dispenser
Band Manager
A&R rock talent person
Aromatherapy
State politics
Venue management
Advertising
The list kind of goes on but lets end it there for the sake of my embarrassment.
Basically professionally I am a sales person whether I am selling rock bands advertising or essential oils I am kinda good at helping guide people to a decision.
I have taken numerous art classes and really I drop things or they drop me.
No point crying over spilt milk I am currently trying to develop my crafting skills and along with an other woman we a developing sewing and crafting classes from children to adults (MORE ON THAT LATER).
So my niche has never been carved out and it is a constant journey for me - As I get older I do regret some of my decisions - However I am sooooooooooo lucky and blessed with my family and even when I am a mean Mummy or nagging wife I know would never leave them for a career in high end economics - but a weekend away every now and then....................
And Ing, its better to be a good mother and have well rounded happy kids than it would ever be to be a highflyer in the corporate world. We dont call them banker wankers for nothing!
ReplyDeleteI like the niche you are carving :-)
Another fantastic post Ing.
ReplyDeleteMan, you really have lived a varied life I am impressed!
You definitely have wonderful people smarts [btw being able to dispense 'tough love' at bedtime is a great indicator of this!]
Your new crafty niche is very impressive and I think that your creativity overlaid with interpersonal skills are a terrific combination.
Big hugs,
Felicity
