Career Change - Knowing When

A careers teacher at school once told me, “NO job is worth being unhappy for. Move on.”

I’m sure I’m oversimplifying somewhat, but that philosophy has remained with me. If I am unhappy, it’s time to move on and discover other options.

Now some might allow to go this as undeveloped or careless, an powerlessness to consign even when things get tough. I would disagree that, on the opposing, each move has resulted in a great deal of soul-searching and thus has led to continued personal growth, as well as a thorough assessment of the values that are meaningful to me. I have come to become conscious that a fat paycheck, a believe office and a corporate image are far less important that I once thought. Instead, personal rewards have taken their place.
