I just closed the door behind me about a month ago and now I am presented with 3 in front of me. Although, none of them are opened at the moment, it doesn't stop me thinking about which one to go to.
For all you know, I may not get a choice if only one door opens for me. Worse, none of them opens at all.
Door #1
This door leads me back to an old door which I closed behind me many years ago. Re-opening it will bring me back to familiar territory. I left because I wasn't ready to settle down and grow roots in one place back then. I left because of two-faced backstabbing assholes which I felt sick just being under the same roof.
Well, that was more than a decade ago and times have changed. I have changed. The asshole has left too.
The pay will be so-so but job will not be difficult as I have already 4 years of experience in the bag even before I step in. If I enter this door, it will be cruising all the way to the finishing line and that's it. No big pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Door #2
Totally new and unchartered waters which I will be like a fish out of water. My survival will depend if I am able develop lungs quickly to replace the gills before keeling over.
The money is very good. Lotsa zeroes at the back but how long can I hold on to it, if at all, remains a question mark. The prospect looks very good as far as personal development is concerned and will be the big break turning point if I make it.
Still, it means leaving behind all the expert knowledge that I have accumulated over the years and starting over. Armed with just the fundamentals of steering, the path ahead is dark and scary.
Door #3
Biggest door of them all and I have everything that I need for this door as this is the same room as my China door, only bigger. Much bigger. This door will mean I will be traveling again but Singapore will still be home at the end of the day.
I believe my battle scars will be the strongest to make it through the slit under the door but there is concern if I am over qualified for it? What if it is merely a big door to a big house but a small room within is where I am headed?
I certainly hope not and the word "Regional" seems to provide some sort of a calming assurance.
Too many unknown variables going on right now and it's the festive period where everything is put on hold until thereafter.
We'll see.
In the meantime, perhaps it is wise not to fret so much and enjoy the fellowship of good kin and friends in the meanwhile, during the festive season.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year one and all!

The Monster Turbine is retailing at around SGD 300 which is almost 10 times the price I paid for the Seinnheiser MX 80 Sport. The Lady Gaga Heartbeats maybe cheaper to retail at around SGD 240, the more expensive Turbine is still better value-for-money between these two for the performance each delivers against their respective price tag.
