The job the person

Is the person the job or is the job the person?
the question is hard to put in words but is also hard to ask. When do you change to adopt to the job or when do you change the job to be more you? People see me as the job that I do not who I am. If I have to be serious and tough, everyone will believe that is you I am. I am no longer seen or thought as someone fun and nice.
In my case the job changed me or I changed for the job. Even that statement is a confusing sentence. The words I changed for the job implies that I consciously changed, that I made that choice willingly. I don’t believe I made a conscious decision it just came with time. Overtime I think I lost me along the way in order to do a good job and be the best. Sacrifices had to be made a long the way and I left pieces of me behind because they did not fit in the new person that I had to be. Perception is half of the battle to get people to see what you what them to see. Act like who you what to be, or act like you already have what you what to have. I like the me today but I miss the old me. Free spirit, fun, caring and above all the me that had so many dream and nothing was going to stop me.

Boa Vida. Carla B
