I've had a lot of changes last nine months. I have one big change I would like to make but fears holding me back. I would like to have a new job. I've been at my current job now for almost 7 years. The job is very unfulfilling very physical leaving me no energy for school and home life.I often do this with most things have fear hold me back. Fear of not being good enough fear of not being capable of fear of unfamiliarity. So my question is do I just take a leap? How do most people overcome ? Change can be very gripping and scary. But I have to think what could be the worst case Scenario. To lay out the whole picture I've been at current job for seven years it's comfortable I know what I'm doing. I currently go to school don't want to interfere with that. Also take care of my son and home. Worried if I change jobs what if it has a domino effect and makes everything else worse.

Fear of Change.
Just a thought, maybe finish the year of school first, and in the mean time, look at what kind of jobs you would be interested in. Give yourself time to look around so that you can really do your homework on where you may want to work. Secure the job before giving your two weeks notice at your old job, and therefore you will have no laps. As far as fear of change...it's really the only thing we know for sure is going to happen in life besides death and taxes....it' change...it's the old 'one door closes and the other opens'...as long as we keep looking at the closed door we will never know what prospects could be there for us. Change is always scary, just try to lesson the fear by doing the best you can to make the transition if you decide to do it easier.
