Real life scenario time: You’re in a job you absolutely hate, making ok money, doing work that you feel lukewarm about.
You get an offer for your dream job, except it comes with a 16% pay cut.
What would you do?
A friend struggled with this decision last week; she was worried it would be her only shot at a new job.
So I asked her 3 questions to help guide her decision (*save this email*):
1. How does this move fit into your long-term career plan? Will it help you get where you want to be?
2. Pay cut or not, are you getting the best offer? What is market value for the position?
3. If you didn’t hate your job, would you consider this move?
My friend made a decision that she’s proud of (more on that next week) but I don’t want anyone ever feeling like your only options are to stay stuck or earn less than you’re worth. *tuh*
You get to have a say about what happens in your career and your coins.
Options open up a whole new path to opportunity, allowing you to do the choosing.
Imagine if she had another offer that was paying market value or more. I doubt she’d have been worried about missing an opportunity because options give you power and peace of mind.
