Each year I have students working for me who are very nervous about their future, and they share their fears with me. While I am happy to provide support (and even urge them to consider becoming a collegiate conferences and events director some day), I also make sure they know that during my 20s I struggled through several jobs. A little uncertainty is normal, albeit scary, at a time when you are looking forward to more than four decades of lifetime in which to build a career. But I was once where these students are, jumping from job to job in search of the one that was the best fit for me. At the time, I thought I was the worst possible failure.
