    It’s not going to be an easy road from where I am now, to here (See http://www.43things.com/entries/view/513224 )... But nothing worth doing is easy.

    I think I’d enjoy it, I have some relevant experience, am in a position to gain more relatively easily. Ironically enough, I just need to make a plan and see it through! :)

    As I currently look for a job in the tech field after being laid off in Nov. I really am discovering that I would like to get into project management. I think the technical skills, coupled with my organizational and people skills make this a perfect job for me!
