I have an interview set for tomorrow. 

Mid day.

I feel a bit apprehensive as I am worried it is too IT heavy but then I think maybe it won't be.

I'm also conscious of the fact that I feel undervalues and don't know where I'm going in life etc.

But I have spent the last 4 years balancing out priorities and where I can go in my life with my skills and experience. 

Whenever someone asks me what I want to do or where I want to go in life I never really know the answer.

I had an epiphany today that if someone asked me "is this the direction you want to go in" then I'd say no. But I also think it's unwise to say "I'll only go in a direction I want to go in" because you close out opportunity but you also limit yourself and life is ever changing.

I guess I'm just saying that I need to balance ambition and what I "want" with what's available and practical 

Its a weird time to be alive and a weird time to be in yours 20s.

I'm gonna sit here outside and let the sun thaw me out a bit more

Hi @MDT 

Good luck with the interview for tomorrow. I hope everything goes well for you.

Hoping you are enjoying the sunshine.

All the best for the interview tomorrow @MDT

Thanks @Snowie @StuF

I did some meditation like exercises in the sunshine. Nearly fell asleep
I already know I need an early night tonight and I won't be drinking anymore coffee today.
Now that I think of it - it's just a job interview. Don't need to overdo it and think it'll be the end of the world either way.
I think much of the apprehension comes from the implications of getting it. But that's a rabbit hole.

Just gotta take it one day at a time. Have spent a bit of time looking at it and thinking about q's they may ask.

@MDT 

Yeah, try to not get too far ahead in your thoughts...easier said than done! (Disclaimer, I've not done many interviews, so my advice ain't worth a lot probably lol)

Go well with it 🙂
