Can I Really Do This?

One year ago today I called my best friend at 4:30 in the afternoon crying hysterically as I was having the worst day ever in my Accounting career.  I had already secured a new opportunity and had planned on giving my two weeks notice on Monday.  After spending nearly every day of the last 6 months in misery, I asked one question, "Can I really do this?" 
I got a really simple answer, "You've already secured your future, you're the unhappiest I have ever seen you....what do you have to lose?"
And with that, I walked back into work, typed up my resignation letter and at the end of that work day, I turned in my keys and officially resigned.
I walked out of the building with a huge weight lifted off of my shoulders and I've never looked back or regretted my decision to leave that dreadful place.  Six months of my life wasted at a company that never gave me a shot, never allowed me to grow and most of all never made me feel welcomed.

I struck gold....or in my case, black gold in my current position.  I work hard but I'm appreciated for all that I do, I have amazing friends who I can count on daily and I was lucky enough to meet a great guy who I can share my free time with....yep, walking out that day was the best decision I could have made.
