Sometimes you so badly want to escape your current career. You want out. There is enough messaging out there to encourage a big move – Do what you love and the money will follow! Leap and the net will appear! The Universe responds to big moves! It’s not that this isn’t true.\u00a0<\/p>

But, maybe your intuition is saying, “Hold on a minute. Is this the right time? Is this the right thing? Is this too risky?”\u00a0<\/p>

That’s when you get into a conundrum – one part of you is saying Leap! And another part of you is saying Stay! And that’s when you stay stuck. It’s also when you become vulnerable to unintentionally making big, risky moves that you regret later.<\/p>

I’d like add another voice to the conversation that says … Stay. For now. Until you’ve sorted it out. Yet, that can be so much harder than it sounds.\u00a0<\/p>

Staying might mean that you want to start your own business but need to figure a few things out before you leap; it could mean you’re close to retiring, so it makes sense to stick to maximize your financial potential.<\/p>

But, emotionally, you’re so done. When this happens, each day can be a slog, each chipper new employee can grate on your last nerve. No matter how many times you swear that things aren’t going to get to you, they still do. You may even be a little afraid of exploding on the wrong person at the wrong time. It’s hard to hold it all in.<\/span><\/p>

What’s going on, and is there a better way?<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Your opinions of your work place and your colleagues may have developed over years and may be locked in. Because of that, it may be hard to see the possibilities of feeling better in the job you’re in.<\/span><\/p>

But, I recommend redecorating before you decide to uproot your whole life and move. This isnt’ always possible, but it’s definitely worth exploring. The thing is that our minds, left to their own devices underestimate how much effort and money it takes to make a change, and overestimates how hard it is to stay. It’s just how our brains our made. That’s why we need to activate our frontal cortexes to engage in an objective analysis of what’s going on.<\/span><\/p>

Working together, we stand outside your job and look in and see how we can add more of what you do like and remove more of what you don’t like.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

We also work on limiting beliefs, which can be real game-changers.<\/p>

This creates stability and a firm foundation from which to leap when it is time to go. It also creates space for the dreaming and scheming work that you haven’t yet found time for.<\/p>

Less stress and anxiety about your current work = more time and energy to figure out what’s next.<\/p>

Some clients decide to really stay and dig in after they do this work. You never know!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

A big part of you wants to move on, but a wise part within you is telling you to stay. You feel torn. You hoped that time would resolve your problems at work, but it has not. It’s getting more stressful, rather than less stressful and you fear burning out.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

With a some insight, guidance, and a plan, you’ll feel relief. You’ll have some new insights about where you are and why. You’ll feel better, and you may find a new way of being as well as a new way of approaching your work.<\/p>
