QUIT & JOIN DECISIONS

Image by Gerd Altmann from Pixabay 
Referring to the book “ Catalyst: The Ultimate Strategies on How to Win at Work and in Life” BY Mr. Chandramouli Venkatesan, I learned a great lesson regarding Quitting decision and Joining decision. It could so happen that finding a new option could be a reason for leaving the present one. This is applicable not only to career, but also to any other commodity or acts in life. It is important to keep them separate. One should have a clear reason for quitting something. Based on the factors that push you out from a place ( PUSH Factors), one can decide to quit or not. Once the decision to quit is made, the act of quitting can be at a later stage after analyzing PULL FACTORS for the new attempt against the PUSH factors of the leaving attempt. So, try to keep them separate and keep moving on.

    keeping those two separate will also enable us to avoid repetition of any kind of previous mistakes and that could be an addition to our learned lessons for future

    Good input. If one can afford the necessary homework to justify the current decision, irrespective of next step, then no need of nay regrets later.
