5 year plan

Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Many times we have heard this question....

Where are you now? Are you where you thought you'd be 5 years ago?

Me? 5 years ago I just discovered I was pregnant, I quit my job of 12 1/2 years, and was on the verge of divorce.... I had no idea how my current life should look, let alone where I seen myself 5 years in the future.....

Today .... I recently quit my job at Continental Airlines (for a second time) ... I have lived on my own with my two children for three years now.... and I have no idea how my current life should look.

How do you create a 5 year plan if you have no idea of the road you are on? There have been so many turns that I've lost my bearings a bit....

I know what I want ... and I know who I want to be .... I am just not sure how to navigate to get from here to there. Rest assure I will find a way .... I will find my way .... but sometimes I need a little down time.
