This is a guest post.
It’s a brand new year and with that comes a renewed sense of positivity towards our life goals and aspirations. New Year’s Resolutions can come in all shapes and sizes with many of us deciding that this will be the year we finally pursue the job of our dreams. However, is this a realistic resolution? And should we be so quick to quit our current job in pursuit of something better?
It’s a decision which you cannot take lightly – there are many factors to take into consideration, particularly if you have family and financial commitments. There’s nothing wrong with pursuing your dream job but you need to think about the repercussions this will have. Will you need extra training or qualifications? Will your dream job mean taking a pay cut? Is the industry you want to move into a competitive one?
In the current economic climate, job stability is particularly valuable and shouldn’t be taken for granted. By all means, do the research and/or training necessary to pursue your dream job but don’t do anything drastic. If you are feeling unhappy in your current role, have a chat with your manager to see if there’s anything that can be done to improve the situation. There’s no point in making a spur of the moment decision to quit your job only to find that you have nothing to fall back on.
Talk to your partner to see how willing they are to support your career move. Perhaps they can take on extra hours while you undertake further training. Friends and family can also be a valuable source of support as they will probably know whether your predicament is simply a result of short-term job dissatisfaction or a long-term life goal. If you are spiritually-minded you might want to try an avenue such as clairvoyant readings from TheCircle to gain a little perspective on your decision and help provide insight into your future.
Having a career which is rewarding and satisfying is an important part of life. Feeling unfulfilled or undervalued on a daily basis is no good for anyone and can lead to frustration and depression. There’s no reason why you can’t pursue the job of your dreams, but go about it in the right way. Think about the impact it will have on your finances and your family. Don’t feel disheartened if the circumstances aren’t right for you to change jobs straight away. It’s a New Year so try to remain positive – good luck!
