The fear of the unknown. The fear of starting over. The fear of it not working out.

The well wishes I genuinely feel for someone going off to do something he is passionate about. The certainty of mind that this is a wonderful new opportunity and that he is deserving of the bigger and better things it will undoubtedly yield.

One of my fantastic employees is leaving. He was the first new hire that went above and beyond my expectations. I am very happy for him and at the same time, tempted to worry about filling his position. I am comforted by the fact that no matter how many times I’ve been tempted to fret, the upshot of potential worrying has reminded me to trust that the same Angels of the Universe that made it possible for us to cross paths will bring me a perfect candidate.
Underneath it all, I am clear headed enough to believe that it's going to be fine. And because I believe this, I am affirming the best possible outcome for all involved.
