I Learned Something Today
Hey There,
I learned something today I'd like to share with you. Sometimes we stay where it's safe out of fear of what might happen next if we...step outside of our comfy zone.
Whether it's a relationship, a job, or whatever, ask yourself this:
If I were single, would I look at (my current partner), and say "Wow...I'd like to meet that person!" or...."Pass..." If it's the latter, then you know the answer to your dilema. If NOT, then you know you need to get your ass to work on YOUR part of the bargain. We've heard it a thousand times, but it bears repeating here "Relationships and communicatioin are a two-way street." Sadly, sometimes we drive the wrong way
Again, same holds true for your job. If it's not working now, and you wouldn't want it if you were searching, then you're settling. Sure, for financial reasons I can see staying at a job you are unhappy with, BUT, I can't see staying there while doing NOTHING to gain new skills etc. for when the right job opens up.
Too often, we sit in our crap, bitching and moaning, but doing nothing to change it...or sometimes more importantly....OURSELVES.
"Seek first to understand...then to be understood"
All my best,
Christopher
