Lately, the topic of faith seems to be surrounding me. "Big Love" started up again in which several characters are questioning their faith in religion and their sense of identity, and where they fit in their world. My son and I have only one more episode to watch of the now cancelled series Caprica, and I am re-watching Battlestar Galactica. In this series, the topic of faith and belief in one God or many is a major theme, as well as self-determination. So back here in the real world, I am trying to figure out what my next professional move will be and hoping that I have faith in myself, in my judgment and faith in another person. Do I jump back into the familiar, into a corporate America job?
Today I had an energizing short conversation with a woman at a great, traditional company where there could be opportunities. Then, at the end of the day I met with an extremely smart woman who started her own company which is successful and growing. I could join her. We could be a killer team. And yet. Well. But. Could I? Do I have what it takes to step outside my comfort zone? Why after so many good jobs and a resume of accomplishments do I still lack faith in my abilities? At first viewing, the heroes in the Sci-fi shows didn't seem to doubt their ability to make the right decisions. The Admiral had faith that his training and experience would lead to the best outcomes. I guess I need to take a page from his manual.
