Recommendation

Should I stay or should I go? It’s tempting to let yourself be swept away by the current wave of resignations and quit your job. Not so fast, freelance journalist Elle Hunt cautions in The Guardian. Hunt lists 17 questions to ask yourself before making a life-altering decision that you may come to regret.

Take-Aways

  • Ask yourself whether your impulse to quit your job is due to a temporary mood or an untenable work situation.
  • Get clear about what you want: Repeat a writing exercise three times over six weeks, detailing your “ideal tomorrow.”
  • Explore professional development options within your current company.
