New job offer

Im approaching almost 2 years of sobriety, and have basically been living my life straight as an arrow - completely content but rather boring from the outside world.

While I have been trucking along truly finding myself, I was headhunted 10 days ago.

Just being myself I went in last week figuring "why not". 1 hour turned into 4, and then the next day another 4 hours. After all was done, they ended up wanting me for a more senior role : actually #2 in the chain of command. A dream job (so to speak).

Offer letter arrived today, it was very exciting just reading it... but now I find myself thinking this might disturb my sobriety (routine).

I know at one point we must challenge ourselves, and I feel fairly strong in my resolve, but Im hoping for others in here who might have accepted something similar --- what to expect? And with the uptick in responsibility, what extra thinking was needed to keep the balance?.
