And once again... in search of my successor


We AIESECers know that because our term is just one year, we get this ability of learning, building, planning, and performing in really short time, and without noticing is already moment to search for our successor...

I have to admit it, is a feeling of excitement and sadness... picture it in this way, you have spent many months, non sleeping, traveling, fighting, challenging yourself in order to build what you have built to the point of ownership that you see your work as your baby, and for sure, you don't want to leave your work to someone that can not give a good care of it, and when you find the right one, is a feeling of vision, imagination, dream to see where else this person can take the work you have started... (still with sadness, because after all, you have to leave your baby to this new person).

Well, I thought this path had ended for me, but seems is back... I'm close to finish my job, and is time to find the new me :) It is going to be hard, because aside from my MCP term, I also love this job.

So August it is, in two weeks from now I will know HIM or HER... I just wish to find a better candidate than me... just like I did it before.

And of course, this doesn't come alone, there is still an extra excitement moment in this process... the NEXT STEP... but for that I'm not worry, and you shouldn't, because the next step shouldn't be forced, it will just happen when the right moment and time will come, you will just know... I don't mean to laid at bed a hope for some divine message... I mean, keep searching and looking around, be aware that you are looking for that next step, it will be then when it will just happen... you might don't know it yet, but maybe it is already there, but you can not just see it... don't worry, give it time, is just something you can not push, but trust me... it will happen.

The thoughts are just so correct and so bang on what I was thinking about.. But more than anything else, the last paragraph struck out to me and I guess the advice for me from that would be... go with the flow...

Yes my dear, sometimes we tend to plan so much that we forget basic and simple things, or just push to much for something to happen and nothing. Anyway things will show up, opportunities are always there, life is good my dear :)
