That’s a good tip, Senior Analyst Thinking of it as an interim situation takes the pressure off. It’s not hard for me to raise my hand and state I’m looking for a sponsor, but I do have problems w committing!
Go to a meeting, raise your hand and say you need a sponsor. Not that easy, but sounds simple. That's what I did.
Def planned on doing that. I have 15 years so ideally I’d like someone w double digits. Doesn’t have to have more years than I do but would like in the same vicinity.
You’re not alone @cd! Today I was feeling like shit after working on a pitch so I called someone and asked them about their day because it’s been suggested that it will make me feel better. It’s weird that it worked and I felt so much better (4 years in and I still think I’m a special snowflake and these things won’t work). I never want to do the things that people suggest, but sometimes it works!
Second huge. Find an interim one. That’s what I’m doing right now (I just fired my sponsor). And hopefully something will work out if I just do the work and be honest, willing, and open.
