Hello Everyone!I found this site while looking up Linda on Google, and have found some very helpful information. Now I hope to receive some. I have been looking to change careers, but I am going to school first to achieve this. A trade school or something, I'm still not sure. I think I want to be an elementary school teacher. I also think that my life path has brought me to this decision. I love to teach, and I have a record of it in my past employment and personal *hobbies*. I have no formal education, other than highschool, but the more I think about it, I think this is what I want to do. I used to train people in my office, I was a leader of a brownie troop, I have 4 kids, I am a bus driver. I was talking to my daughter before I took her to school this morning, and I told her what I wanted to do. Then I told her that I would talk to one of her former teachers (By name) this morning, if I should see her. I havent seen this paticular teacher for about 5 weeks. And then I told her that if I actually saw her this morning, I would take it as a sign that I should be a teacher. Well, we walked into the school, and I didnt see her, then as we reached the teachers lounge, she almost ran me over comming out. WOW, I almost fell over! I havent seen her in so long, then when I ask for a sign, there she is! Well, after quicky recovering from the shock, I asked her what I needed to do, and she told me. Now I am afraid to make the jump, afraid I will fail. Does anyone have any advice? Or should I just follow my heart?? I was never good in school myself, so I am not sure how I am going to accomplish this task, and I am 33 (I know age dosent matter!). I am a bit impatient, how do I find the patience?? I thank you for taking the time to look at this, reading it this far. One more thing, I am a Virgo, Taurus rising, Cappy moon. if that helps, hope this all makes sense  TIA!! cappymoon IP: Logged |

Follow your heart!So what if you 'fail?' The process will bring you many things of value. There really is no failure. Just an Infinite Universe of Positive Possibilities...if you allow them to be. If you should change paths in the middle of your journey, how is that failure? It's just a new discovery. Good luck.  IP: Logged |

Cappymoon...you don't want to live your life wondering if you could've should've.
And you don't want to regret not having tried.
At 37 I had my last child (a surprise angel) then I went back to university and got 2 Bachelor degrees and graduated with honors. When I first started back I was so scared and unsure of myself, but then I found I could do it...and loved it!
So if you want it...go get it!Blessings IP: Logged | |
