Changing Lanes

I've always been a safe driver on the road, never really had a major accident (Thank God!) and all of my past little bumps I had were because of other people's slackness. When it comes to being on the road, I'm usually in no hurry. I just want to get there safe... Even when I've been driving on the lane that moves the slowest, I'm okay with that... perhaps I'm a little afraid of switching to the Fast Lane...

Much like what I've been going through these days... I've been sort of signaling that I want to change lane, on to a Faster lane perhaps where there might be less congestion or less obstacles ahead so that I could get on with my life in a smoother pace. But at times, I was reluctant to steer my life out of this current lane I'm in... Its just that I'm not sure what's gonna come up before me... What has God placed before my life that He wants me to take if I ventured into this lane?

Up to now, I hope you'd read that I'm not talking about Fast and the Furious kinda thing... I'm making a decision to change the course of my life. I want to move on to another career...

Even before entering the University, I've always thought I wanted to be an Academician. Something about the intellectual mind set that attracts me very much... a Quest for Knowledge and Creativity! I want to be at the brink of Technology, the frontiers of Science, and the peripheries of Innovation, Creativity and even Arts!

I've been in this Job for about 1 1/2 years now and I've had a very rewarding experience. I believe I've been very well exposed to the industry and being able to understand how a structured economy works. I've learned very much about management and financing and most of all, dealing with people. But as I take a step back to consider how far this has brought me to what I want to achieve, I'm not so certain anymore that I'm actually in the fast lane... Staying here too long and I might just get caught in a Jam...

So I've decided, I want to move on to the Faster Lane where I would need to gain more qualifications and experience which would propel me into the direction I'm heading much quicker... I want to do my Masters!

Learning to aim Long Term...
