E123 - Don't Leave Life On the Table, Make the Brave Career Change
“Leave money on the table before you leave life on the table.”
Too many people are delaying a career or life change because they are scared of leaving money on the table. Many professionals have stock awards, performance bonuses, and vesting cycles that become the reasons to delay making a role, company, location, or life phase change.
It results in people leaving priceless, irreplaceable life on the metaphorical table while they continue to spin in dissatisfaction, overwork, and being underpaid.
In this episode, I share a number of examples from my own community of people allowing themselves to delay making a desired change due to an upcoming pay-off. Then I show you how to make a braver choice in five simple steps that map into the Build Your Brave Framework:
1. Build Your Brave Framework, Clarity
a. Evaluate your current position and phase: what is good, what is bad, and what is ugly (Build Your Brave Framework, Clarity)
b. Envision your future: what is known, what is probable, what is possible
2. Build Your Brave Framework, Momentum: Make a decision: leave life or leave money based on the specifics in front of you from steps 1 and 2
3. Build Your Brave Framework, Momentum: Design your strategy to a career shift that is unique and specific to you, your life, and what supports your energy and goal
4. Build Your Brave Framework, Accountability: Step into your accountability and follow through
Follow these steps to ensure that you never, ever accidentally or unintentionally leave life on the table in exchange for money you don’t need. Your career growth and career success rests in your ability to make powerful choices to serve you mid- and long-term.
