When I was a kid I had my fingers in many pies. And I always had to hear things like “Oh, she is so fickle minded,” “She is not serious/sincere about anything”, and I believed them. I always believed that I didn’t amount to much and never would.
A couple of years ago (Yes, that recently), someone I really look up to said something to me and it changed my world forever. She said that, she had been observing me for years now and she had noticed that when I did something I gave it my all. And I mastered it. Having mastered something I lost interest in it and moved on to something else to imbibe. For me project oriented work was the best and today I am glad to say that is exactly what I am doing and loving it ! Same person, different interpretations of the same traits. One interpretation nearly finished me off, the other helped me bloom.
It taught me a lesson I hope I can learn properly. It is so easy to label people but sometimes its so hard to understand them, takes so much more effort. But sometimes it can save a life.
