The Surprising Question That Could Make or Break Your Next Big Opportunity
When you imagine yourself in this new role, do you feel energized or drained? Excited or anxious? There’s a difference between good nervous energy and the kind of dread that’s trying to tell you something.
Third, talk to someone who knows you well and isn’t invested in your decision. My wife didn’t tell me what to do about Singapore, but she asked me questions that helped me see what I already knew. Sometimes we need someone else to reflect back to us what they’re observing.
Finally, consider what you’d be saying no to. Every yes is also a no to something else. What would you lose by taking this path? And are you genuinely okay with that loss, or are you just telling yourself you should be?
