Sometimes the best job is the one we never take.
I believe this is applicable to many facets of our lives. Not just our professional one.
We can get caught up in the ‘American Dream,’ which I define as; more, bigger and more. When maybe we should consider how the ‘next job’ is going to effect the quality our well-being. Our mental health. Our personal relationships. Our physical health. Our emotional state of mind.
We all have a finite amount of time and resources (battery life) in a day. And we get to choose how and where we want to spend that energy.
Maybe we can be a bit more discretionary with ourselves in order fill our cups with the drink of choice than nurtures us rather than pouring our energies into a bottomless pit of ‘more.’
