A work in progress

Current Mood:

One of the things I can readily admit is that I'm not naturally as good a manager of people as I would like to be. I don't know why; I guess I never really developed that skill as I was growing up. I've always preferred to be a follower than a leader--probably because it's easier to impress when you're a follower than when you're a leader.

So when Teresa asked me asked to manage some people remotely in Manila, I got nervous. My mind automatically thought about failure and the higher-ups being disappointed in the job that I do.

But at one point Teresa said, "It'll really help me," and strangely enough, that made me feel a little more brave about it. So I said yes.

Anyway, I'm a work in progress. I guess the only way to conquer a fear is to challenge it head on.

But man, I'm glad it's Friday :-).
