A little self doubt is healthy. It keeps us in check, makes us work harder, and. hopefully, better at what we do. Mothers always worry if they did a good job raising their children - are they kind, considerate, decent members of their community. Do thy contribute to the well being of others - no matter what their calling - music, teaching, policing, military, politics, PR, even nursing. You can't worry about "hurting" someone when it is done to help someone. At the end of the day you just ask yourself - " Did I do my best today?" If not - try again tomorrow. Do good, Be good , Be happy, Be healthy. Linda Good Morning, Jess,

In terms of career change, I hate to think that the thing we went to school for will dictate the rest of our lives. Come on, we were kids, how do you pretend a 17 year old that can barely stop thinking of getting laid to pick a career that fits all he/she likes,all the talents and virtues, and will enjoy doing the rest of their lives? I can honestly say that you are THE smartest co-worker I've had the pleasure to work with and in the top 20 of the smartest people in my life. I also know you work harder than some of us, and that you always want to give your best. In my opinion, a "Lack of Confidence Day" is nothing more than our mind giving us a so-needed challenge to confront when someone else can't give you one. Enjoy those days, cuz those are the ones that make you think of all else you could be doing, while at the same time give you some material to write a great blog. :) Oh Jess, We all have those days (not only women).
