So *this* is what's been up with your life! Listen. DO NOT look back. You have decided to move forward, move forward. 5 months, 6 months... go by in no time, and you could be back to Square 1. There is something the career planning gurus didn't tell us: CHANGE HAPPENZ! We, the urban dwellers, are disconnected from this simple truth of life: things change. The four seasons are a great allegory for anyone to look at, and the ancients greeted each season differently. Our air-conditioned and heated lives today take no notice of change around us, and we are starved for sensory input. This is what causes the medical troubles. And I can say this because I've been through this, and I fell for the "can't-miss-opportunity." Come two months, that "opportunity" becomes your biggest regret, because it stopped you when you could move on at the right time. Love yourself, respect your change, and move on. Take the weight of the world off your shoulders, and put those commitments to rest. Someone, somewhere will take care of things you can't attend to. Good luck! P.S. What I didn't do was to take people into confidence, and tell them what I was going through - it's good to take people close to you in confidence and tell them that you need yourself. Those who come round, understand you. Those who don't are childish or insensitive to you. These times are great learning experiences. May you get the best of your time of transition! Ah! So *this* is what’s been up with your life!

And oh guys, that theory is good ONLY as far as your professional life is concerned. If you try this out in your personal lives, meaning 'time to move on to new wifey when you are dissatisfied with your 'current' one'....may the wrath of all women fall upon you!! GGRR!!

Go for it. You will not regret. But you might regret missing this opportunity. Here's an advice. Every morning when you wake up, look at youself in the mirror and ask yourself if you really want to do what you are going to do today. If the answer is no for too many days then you have to change something. Either fix whatever is broken at the job, or change the job. so u’ve gotten an offer that’s too tempting… and u’ve had enough of your current job… well… been there, done that. Go for it.
