My anxiety was at a high today and I don’t even know why!
As some of you may know I recently got a job promotion but lately it’s been causing me a lot of mixed emotions. I’m feeling discouraged as it seems no matter what I do to get the parents interest-it’s not working. I want to take a lot of initiative but that comes with the fear of doing something wrong and a lot of second guessing myself. I don’t know how many times over the last few weeks I’ve beat myself up about the way I worded something etc. I know some of these things are out of my control but I still need to stress over it. As much as I am super grateful for this opportunity and I am still learning—I have zero experience as a centre supervisor-I think I’m putting too much pressure on myself to be the absolute best I can be and prove to my bosses that I can do this. I really need to get out of my head and focus on the fact that I was given this chance in the first place but being in charge of a brand new building and trying to get families/children enrolled has been hard.2 Comments

The fact you are trying to the best you can and the fact you are so concerned suggests that you are perfect for the job and you deserve support and the ability to ask for help- its a new challenge and nobody gets things perfect without practice. You are doing awesome. If things don’t go quite right today there is always tomorrow, but you are doing your best and that is wonderful and admirable.
