On a crossroad

For the last couple of days, I have found myself pondering what it would be like if i were to decide to start over in a new firm, to work in a different environment. I was thinking something in PR. I've always had a knack for planning events, whether it's a dinner party or a corporate event. I know for a fact that there is a great PR firm who currently has a wonderful position vacant..I want to make a move but at the same time, I’m not too sure if that will be the right thing to do. i have pretty much a lot of ideas for my future and i seem to be indecisive these days..

One of the reasons that stop me from bolting out and taking that leap of faith is my boss.
He had been such a great boss and he has so much faith in me that it makes it that much harder for me to leave the firm. I feel as if I’m betraying him, I would feel an immense guilt if I go through with it, but at the same time, though I am grateful for all the trust that he had given me, I feel compelled to pursue a different career, simply because I think I would suit me a whole lot more.

Don’t get me wrong, my current job is pretty damn great, especially when you factor in the fact that I am definitely under age for a position like this. Even if our firm is relatively young (the staff), I am still younger than most people in the firm, and my boss given me so much faith by giving the marketing manager position to me. It’s a tough and demanding job and I won’t lie, at first I thought that I was way over my head. Even with the difficulties that I faced, I managed to find effective solutions, all thanks to my boss. He had given me so much guidance and assistance when it comes to approaching work issues that it would be extremely hard for me to find a boss like him.

On the other hand, I know for sure that I want to pursue a career in PR, if anything, I really do feel as if I have to give it a chance and dip my feet into it, after all, nothing ventured, nothing gained..

I’ve got quite a decision to make, this issue has pretty much had been occupying my mind lately.
I suppose I can always ask for more advice from others. I have consulted my parents, and they do agree that I should pursue another career if i have great interest in it, my best friends also agree, the only one who is as confused as I am is my bf. He just wants the best for me and felt, maybe I’m throwing a great career path just to pursue something that may not work out….

Bleh. I don’t know, we’ll just have to see I suppose..
