New challenge

I never did know what I am in for when I embarked on this new journey; and taking up a new challenge - treading on a path which I do not know its strength in holding my weight.
It was a risky move, as everyone else says and I was commended as being a courageous person to make that deviation in my own life.
I thought of nothing but just of my hope and a courage to make things happen.

I have read that there are only 2 types of people in this world; one who waits for things to happen and the other; makes things happen.
I'd rather pick the latter; and as such, I have always put my foot forward when my heart and mind says so.
That doesn't mind I didn't like what I was doing previously, but yet, I know that it is not fulfilling enough for me.
Call me ambitious, but I see much more great things out there waiting for me to unravel.

And today, I have entered almost a quarter of the year in the new environment and I have found a new area to explore which I know I have the potential and the right skills to do so.
Much as I missed where I came from previously, I still look forward to the future with my new opportunities which seems to be coming on one by one.
I remembered this particular phrase which was uttered by a senior manager in my previous company whom I look up to; "Everything in life is about opportunity. Even with capability and the skills, the right element is an opportunity. If you seize an opportunity, you've landed yourself higher than the rest"

This was the reason I took up a recent opportunity offered by my boss.
It was a voluntary challenge and requires more travel and sort of relocation. Nobody in my team seems to be up for it; but I was pretty much geared for it.
When my boss asked me about it personally, I took a day to think over it - and my answer is only in 2 words; "Why NOT?"

I don't see obstacles; I only see it as an opportunity.
If I don't take this one, I will just be left wondering. However, I can test my own capabilities if I proceed.
Some may ask, what if it doesn't work out?
I will just say, why think of the NOT's when we can think of CANs?

It may sound ambitious and unrealistic, but that's just me being the positive thinker.
I like to think of only great and successful things and not what if I fail. Failure never is a word in my dictionary.
I am starting to prepare mentally for my new task; a journey which I am looking forward to.
Chances are; 50% realistically. If I were to do this well, I am up for a bright new career prospects and positioning. On the other hand, it may not be that bad either.

After all, we'll never know if we never try, right?
How bad can it get anyway?

Wish me luck in my upcoming endeavor!~
