Sometimes, when we get an offer, it is a quick yes, or no. We can feel it immediately. We can even feel it very keenly. It might feel like an exciting buzz under your skin, or it gets our stomach twisted into knots.
But then there are times when it's not so cut and dry, when it's not so easy. That's when you should sit with that decision, to consider it carefully. Even the ones that come through that sound really great, but it's gonna take a lot of effort, and it's going to tax you emotionally and mentally. And even physically, because of the emotional, and mental exertion. Ask yourself if it's really worth in the end to put yourself through that.
Sit with yourself, write a pros and cons list, journal, meditate. Pay attention to how it feels in your body when you say yes, or no. And know that it's okay to say no. Even to something that sounds great on paper. There's only one you, and you have to take care of yourself. Know that what is meant for you will always find its way to you. Do what's right for you first, and everything will fall into place.
