The time to realize that you need to transition out of your job is when you know that you've grown out of the role that you were doing before.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's scary to not know when your next job is coming, and that is a daily fear when you are trying to act full-time.
When you first start out, you are just happy to get a job, any job. And as time goes on, either you move forward or screech to a halt.
Times of transition are strenuous, but I love them. They are an opportunity to purge, rethink priorities, and be intentional about new habits. We can make our new normal any way we want.
Any transition is easier if you believe in yourself and your talent.
I find that when I'm ready for something to end, I transition quickly. But when something ends before its time, I find it hard to move on.
Switching from one career to another can be scary, but it also can be a thrilling experience. Look at it as an opportunity to really go after what you want to accomplish in life and make a difference in the world. The key is to take small, conscious steps and prepare yourself for a successful transition.
You take the job, you learn from it, and you move on.
Sometimes in your career, you are at the right place at the right moment. But you have to be aware that eventually you may no longer be the right person for that position. So build your succession and foster for it while you are still at the peak of you career.
There are moments when you feel that the desire to work is fading, and the only way to bring it back is to get away from it, to put yourself in a state of frustration so you feel the need again.
I'm at this time in life when I have to take the opportunities I have left.
