Rare footage of how I spent my downtime in the field!!
I would like to take a break you guys and just vent for a moment. I won’t hammer too much on our progressive journey just release. First off, I want to take the time to say thank you if you happen to stumble on my page or if you just showing support, I appreciate the little things simple reminders for me to keep going.
I worked in the Oil and Gas industry for the past two years (2018/2019/2020ish). It was one of the most eventful places to work I must say. I learned so much there good and bad, I would say mostly bad but being superior-minded won’t allow any experience to be bad only learning lessons to never repeat twice.
The environment there was challenging let’s just say that in turn, I met some of the dopest people ever. Like-minded guys and gals who don’t wish to watch the world burn, but rather see it fruitful and get cash dollars and creamy bills in the process. I also was able to spend a grand amount of time with myself in which I learned a lot about myself. This is why I harp on learning about yourself so much because once you find out who you are, you magically understand what you want in life, and damn near nothing will stop you from getting it. Anyway, this oil company I worked for were some of the malicious people you could be around. Adult men and women living in fear and never in their truth. I noticed them not knowing who they were and immediately felt like I was in the wrong space for my life. I knew there was something else I was supposed to be doing but I didn’t know what. In the rest of my time there I decided t keep to myself continue to carry out the duties of my job like I’m supposed to and focus my energy on my own self-development. I remember tiring myself and proving myself at every job only to never get noticed. Someone else would come in and get a higher position than me. I thought to myself, “I’m going to be at the bottom of the totem pole everywhere I go.” A real damper on my self-esteem and confidence.
Such an uncomfortable place in my life but, as I learned myself, I earned that I did not need to depend on a job, yet I should depend on myself and my skillset. I also have a habit of ridding negative thoughts from my mind in the midst of my purpose sometimes. I never felt safe at this job we worked with Acid, Bleach, and Chlorite they combined at a percentage to make CLO2 which treated well water and they used it to shoot downhole when drilling. Pretty interesting and unique to see I must say but being around so many chemicals and being alone all the time gave them time to think.
I was killing my health for a nice dollar on top of that I was aiding to destroy the earth. I’ve always felt like oil was the lifeblood of this earth and we keep draining her to be more efficient. Soon maybe not in my lifetime but maybe my children’s and their kids, this will be problematic as to their survival. The planet will be changing so many humans may have a difficult time existing. This is the motivation for you to believe in yourself and push past situations that make you unhappy!!
I hope all is well in your space please stay safe lead with grace superior minds are off to the race
