Hi all

I have found myself in a situation in life that I don’t know what to do. On the surface everything is great or actually better than great. I have a high paid job in finance, which I have no idea how I manage to climb that ladder, as I don’t have any education really. My attention spam in school were as big a pin. But here I am , at the top of my game, starting a second career at age of 32 having reaching the roof on my first career already. I always thought I’d love the idea of the career woman. Working in a major company, running from meeting to another with my heels and outfit to the point. And this is what I do, but first time in my life I’m doubting. Do I love it? Or do I just do it because that’s what’s expected of me, that’s what I expect from me? It’s a weird feeling, when everything is perfect to the point but there’s something inside you trying to tell you something that you can’t quite interpret but it feels scary. If this is not the person I am. Who am I then? And you lucky bastards get to see when I unrawell this question tomyself. Congrats!

Basically, I’m starting to feel uncomfortable. Feeling the weight of the chains of working in the corporate rat-race. 9am-5pm ( reality 9am-8pm inlcuding weekends ) Time is precious and I use 80 % of my most effective hours working. Working for a big corporate. Do I really wan’t to be the CFO? And am I really willing to pay the highest note for that. T.I.M.E. But what else can I do to make money and break my self free? I know I’m not going to get rich with Steemit, but I constantly need to evolve, grow and learn, so this platform and the whole world of crypto, is without mentioning the future we’ll be living in, so I might as well explore it while I share my thoughts and journey of re-finding myself again.

Facts; I'm native Finnish. I live in Denmark Copenhagen. I read, I listen audiobooks, I'm also finding the spiritual side of me. I train. T.R.A.I.N hard. Gym is my church. Yes you can also pray at the gym. It's breathing to me. When I travel, my biggest attractions are the local gyms. Yes, I’m that boring. I’m also introvert with amazing skills to pull of my 9-8 extrovert. Reason I spend most of my freetime alone. Charging my batteries for work. I look normal and very mainstream, yet inside I feel like a freak weirdo sometimes.

My Finnish teacher said I shouldn’t be allowed to have a pen in my hand. That’s how bad I was in writing, so thank you for reading this far :)

P.S. I really tried to upload the picture right way around, but for some reason it didn't work dispite my several attempts. #childrenoftechnology

your picture needs to be edited with an app that can rotate it and then re-post it.
I used google chrome book and my files are in the cloud - google drive.
So, I copied your pic and pasted to a blank google drawing file, clicked arrange -> rotate -> clockwise 90 degrees and voila (there were a few more steps to get this here ...):

Hello materialgirl! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:
1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
