A Victim of My own Success

I'm trying to become a ghost.

After a year where I was doing too much, this school year, I am trying to pull back, do less, disappear. When I suggested giving up a leadership position earlier today, my colleagues wouldn't have it. They were upset that I was even considering leaving and were vehement about me staying. When I went to try to give up another position after that, the organizer looked so sad about it that i almost said I was just kidding right there.

I don't think I am doing very well at any of them. But apparently, I am too good at these jobs somehow to be allowed to give them up.

How do I get myself into these things?
