This feeling… Take a look at the monkey’s face, what do you see?
It is a feeling…
As a lefthander, I discovered early in life that it takes me a longer time to get things. This was a very awkward feeling.
When I first became a mother I felt the same awkwardness.
When I first started to apply to study abroad, it was the same feeling.
When I first started to sell my books, courses and coaching online, it was even more awkward. I was not sure I could ever get anything right- how much more get others to pay me for it. The awkward feeling still persists!
I felt the same awkwardness when I first moved to the United States.
It was the same feeling when I moved from Tuscaloosa to Chicago.
I feel it every time, I still felt it last week, when I resumed my new job.
I am still feeling this awkwardness as I prepare (however slow) for the LSAT.
It is okay for change to feel strange.
What it is not okay is to not change because change is strange.
I hope you do the awkward today.
Tell me, what did you learn from my post today?
What awkwardness are you feeling right now?
I want to hear your thoughts…
I feel this way every time. It's a relief to hear it's totally normal. I thought it had to do with my self esteem. But I do get over it
eventually and do excellently well!
