I finished my second TAFE class. Awgh everytime I go I always end up coming out feeling accomplished and happy - so why do I spend the hour prior stressing and all anxious for no real reason at all? I actually had little flash thoughts in my mind before hand that I should drop out. They weren't really real thoughts, just little anxiety bubbles that were popping up in the sea of other thoughts
I really like this trainer. Very people first it seems. I don't regret leaving high school for this one bit, although I do have the weeds of self doubt that hours of weeding never seem to uproot. It always grows back.
Edit: clarity
Anxiety can tell you lies. You did the right thing to overcome it and go for your goals. New things can be stressful, this is completely normal. The trick is not to never be nervous, but to overcome it. It will become less with each class as you gain confidence in your achievements. Yay you!
