Do Not Take This Wrong Please
Now don’t take this wrong my mentor said
but when you interview for this job….
“Don’t be myself?” I guessed.
She laughed. “Don’t be SO MUCH YOU,” she suggested.
“Just give them a bit of you.”
Because I am too much?
We could not stop laughing.
During the interview, my heart said “Be the real you, be yourself, be YOU.”
I did, I got the job, and I have never wavered from this inner voice.
