Are you stuck in a dead-end career? 86% of people say that they don’t love what they do for a living - but it’s necessary, it’s secure and they do it for the money. They’ve rationalized being in a secure prison. You have lost complete control - you have to be in at a certain time, you get a specific number of sick days, a specific number of vacation days and work longer and harder without any salary increase.
Why do people continue to settle for this level of mediocrity? Is it risk? “It’s too risky to go out on your own. I have great start up business ideas but what if it doesn’t work? I can’t take that risk, I have kids!” Well there’s one hard and fast rule in life: you are either investing your time and energy in yourself or you are giving it away for the benefit of someone else.
Why, then, when it comes to employment and people’s careers, do they violate this rule and find themselves surprised when an unanticipated job loss or salary decrease sneaks up on them?
Everyone that hits the alarm button every morning and heads off to the job that they detest so much has put all their eggs in one basket. And if you haven’t noticed, the economy is extremely volatile and that “secure prison” isn’t so secure in this market. It’s just a prison. But you can escape if you’re willing to lose the secure mindset.
The bottom line is that there isn’t any job security any more – period!
