i think that one of the best and worst things of my job is the same thing – i frequently feel like i am making it up as I go along. It is a huge shift to simply believe in my instinct. And, mostly it has been good. I’ve been quite successful at work. And great feedback.
but, as a human, i seem to focus on my missteps. though, thank goodness, they’ve been very low impact/easily correctable. And mostly due to the fact with the fact that my division (company) are more than problem solvers, we are puzzle solvers. My clients hire us not just to do something, but to figure out HOW to do something, and then do it. They aren’t sure what they want, so it is a process of trail and error. It is getting easier, but it was very hard at first to deal with back and forth.
Anyways, even days when i wish i didn’t feel like i was making it all up, i would rather feel like this then feel bored.
anyway anyways let me also say kent and carter came over and reminded me that life is great – great friends, great family, great (as it could be) job.
