Mish at d’Verse asked to share a Life Lesson that we have learned that might be helpful to someone else. I chose the urge to bail out and quit my job.
Back in the 90s, when I was still teaching school, I was feeling burned out and disillusioned with my job. I did an assessment and looked at what it would take to get another job that would pay me what I was earning as a teacher. With my boys starting college, it was not the time to bail out on my job. The only other option was to work on me! I finally came to this conclusion:
It is easier to change my attitude
Than to change my job
I found this also applied to my marriage as well…
It is easier to change my attitude
Than to change my spouse
I am sure there are other situations in life where this is applicable as well
