Learning the weight

Ambition · Little Light original

Sometimes the opportunity you wanted arrives carrying more responsibility than you imagined. People look to you for an answer. Your decisions affect days you will never personally see. You may miss the ease of being less responsible, even while knowing you wanted the chance to lead. Give yourself time to learn the weight of what you asked for. Find people whose judgment you trust. Ask the questions that help you understand the consequences. A bigger role can ask you to become more thoughtful, more patient, and more willing to learn in public. You are allowed to grow into it while you are already there.
